DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe Circle, Cubed is an instruction manual for those proficient in erecting the temple rites, such as "Casting the Circle" or "Casting a Pentagram," who desire to go deeper in their understanding. Rather than rehashing the same three temple rites used by most Wiccans, Kaatryn MacMorgan-Douglas explains what the functions of the various pieces of the rite are, and how those pieces work as a coherent whole. The author also explores earlier and lesser-used temple techniques, as well as modern techniques, in part at frustration at the over-reliance of the Wiccan community on the elemental tetragram circle, a rite that many Wiccans are taught as if it is the sole temple rite, not one of dozens. The author encourages Wiccans to use the material herein to craft their own, personalized temple rite, an essential part of any Wiccan's personal practice. This exclusive edition also features bonus material including "The Ritual of the Compass Rose."

DOWNLOAD EBOOKRoar Rule Laugh Create Destroy Love ...And lay claim to your true masculine nature and spiritual heritage. According to Dagonet Dewr, a writer and activist in the men's pagan spirituality movement: "We have forgotten how to cry, to scream, to hunt, to love, to honor, to teach, to initiate." Hip, funny, and direct, this pagan belief guide explores twelve powerful male archetypes and their relevance for men today: Divine Child, Lover, Warrior, Trickster, Green Man, Guide, Craftsman, Magician, Destroyer, King, Healer, and Sacrificed One. Stories of characters from mythology, fantasy, and pop culture illustrate different expressions of masculine energy. With pagan rituals and magickal workings, this pagan book offers a visceral, hands-on way to connect with archetypal energies and honor male rites of passage such as coming of age, seeking a partner in love, or becoming a father.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe most comprehensive study available of neo-pagan religious movements in North America and Europe. Modern Paganism in World Cultures collects the work of specialists in religion, folklore, and related fields to provide a comprehensive treatment of the movement to reestablish pre-Christian religions. Detailed accounts of the belief systems and rituals of each religion, along with analysis of the cultural, social, and political factors fueling the return to ancestral religious practice, make this a rich, singular resource. Scandinavian Asatru, Latvian Dievturi, American Wicca—long-dormant religions are taking on new life as people seek connection with their heritage and look for more satisfying approaches to the pressures of postmodernism. The Neopagan movement is a small but growing influence in Western culture. This book provides a map to these resurgent religions and an examination of the origins of the Neopagan movement.
