February 15th: A Roman Holiday

Happy Lupercalia! This Roman ritual of purification and fertility is filled with symbolism that predates Rome itself. Ever heard of a scapegoat? That word originated from the rites of Lupercalia. You will be surprised at what other customs arose from this long-forgotten celebration.

June 20th: The Ethics of Magic

Many of us are familiar with the Wiccan Rede, ‘An Ye Harm None’. But it really is not as simple as it may sound. There are many aspects to this that you might not have considered. Our choices, actions, and perhaps lack of action come into play when we take a deeper look at the meaning of this philosophy.

Celebrated August 13 at moonrise by torchlight, the Greek Festival of Hekate was intended to avert late season storms from the Aegean that might destroy crops before harvest.
