Yule Wishes 20.12.2012
Blessed and Merry Yule to you all, Dear People of the Pagan ways. Where golden leaves used to fall, only blank page of snow now stays. And so I wish you all the best in whatever fills that void. May your spring is also blessed and summer is cheerfully enjoyed. May the child of promise […]

One of the Fragments - The Czech Pagan Society 31.8.2012
Referring to some older articles of this blog is slowly becoming a habit, so I am going to do that again. One of the first blog posts described the Czech Pagan community as fragmented and did so in a positive manner. At least as far as I can tell. One of the best things about […]

Czech Community Issues: Restitution of Curch Property 21.8.2012
Let us begin this post with an ilustrative picture. This poster depicts a right-wing politian giving 134 billion CZK (roughly 5,4 billion EUR) to a Christian Priest. In Czech language "miliarda" means a billion. The poster names the two Czech governing right-wing parties and explicitly says that these two want to give 5,4 billion EUR […]

Can polyteism and Wicca overlap? 27.7.2012
That's a question! The topic is so big, one can write a book about it. My intention is not to write a book about it, reason being that my answer to this question is that I simply don't know the answer. The problem of it is (as well as many other questions that has a word […]

How we almost had a Pagan Church. (Thanks Gods for the failures) 13.7.2012
There is one specific topic that comes up in the Czech pagan world every few years. Although I don't find it that big, many people apparently do. Therefore my guess is that it could be interesting for quite a few. Even though there is a large variety among Czech pagans and there is virtually no […]

Few thoughts on the Priesthood 3.7.2012
The Priesthood is a topic often debated. I wanted to write something about it. It is fascinating on one hand and it seems overwhelming and incomprehensible on the other. I realized I once written something about it. I think it was three years ago. So I read the article, rewrote it, shortened it. Hopefully corrected […]

Influential Literature on Wicca, part III. 19.6.2012
This is the third and last post of the Wiccan literature series. (link to the first and second) My guess is you are already tired from reading about books instead of people. And I must admit I am getting a bit tired of writing about them too. Becasue the topic is quite substantial and became huge […]

Influential literature on Wicca, part II. 14.6.2012
This blog post is a follow up to Influential literature on Wicca, part I. I talked about the first book on Wicca that has been translated to Czech language and published. This book was written by Stewart Farrar and was called What Witches Do. I also briefly described its elements that had the biggest influence and attempted […]

Influential Literature on Wicca, part I. 7.6.2012
I love to begin my blog posts with wishful thinking. So, this time I wish I was able to come up with 'Literature on Paganism' kind of post. Sadly, I am not that knowledgeble, even in Czech context. And I am too lazy to do a proper research. Therefore all I am going to talk […]

Paganism vs. mainstream society 5.6.2012
One of my friends from Germany asked me to cover a specific topic on this blog. Actually, you can suggest a topic too. If any of those who read this are interested in certain topic related to The Czech Republic and Paganism, I am most happy to provide my opinions and observations. Just try to […]
