Phoenix Phyre Ostara 2012 ~ Sunday 03/25/12 & Post Game Thoughts

GEDSC DIGITAL CAMERA

Closing ritual was held on Sunday morning at Phoenix Phyre, but I didn’t attend because, as I am sure everyone has figured out at this point, I don’t do morning anything well. So while I spent time with last minute chats with cherished friends, The Abyss packed away our stuff and trying to leave the site as it was before we came.  Then there were, of course, goodbyes, hugs, and exchanges of contact information before we hopped into the car for the long drive home. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ POST GAME ~ What did we think about Phoenix Phyre Ostara 2012? In discussions … Continue reading

Phoenix Phyre Ostara 2012 ~ Saturday 03/24/12

GEDSC DIGITAL CAMERA

Saturday was another stumble to the First Aid Tent for a cup of coffee and a period of malaise in a camp chair. (I’m so predictable in the mornings.) Then, we headed off to walk around for a little bit stopping by to see the Rupert’s Tales show that Kyrja & Randy presented at Phoenix Phyre. Our son thoroughly enjoyed the tales and songs. If you have never sat in on one of these children’s workshops, it is worthwhile and enjoyable even for adults. Afterwards, Kyrja and Randy stopped by to visit our hearth. Always love spending time with her … Continue reading

Zombies in Florida? Who knew?

zombicon2

Apparently, there has been an outbreak of zombies in Florida lately which begets an important question in the Community.  Should we accept zombies as a group under the category of Pagans? Pagans and Wiccans have long held a policy of non-discrimination in their religious beliefs.  We warmly welcomed those that have been considered the outcasts and unwanted from the mainstream and have been blessed by the strength, commitment and dedication those people have brought to our religious beliefs.  But Zombies?  Do we have a place for Zombies?  Regardless, you have to admit that we do love our walking dead. Personally, … Continue reading

FLORIDA SHOUTOUT ~ Upcoming Florida Pagan Weekly on MeadMuse.com

I received a lot of feedback that there was a need for a Florida Pagan Weekly on upcoming events, happenings, deadlines, drumming circles, etc. and we are going to have a regular feature on Wednesday called Florida Pagan Weekly starting this Wednesday. YOUR HELP IS NEEDED!  At this time, the staff of MeadMuse.com pretty much consists of me.  Yup.  My friend, Lauren, helps with the overall site layout, but the content and all the articles are written by little old me.  Since I’m already spending 50-60 hours on researching, writing and editting already, I need the Community and event organizers to help me … Continue reading

Upcoming Festivals – Florida Pagan & Wiccan Scene (Spring 2012) Phoenix Phyre & FPG

Phoenix Phyre (03/21 – 03/25/12 Lakeland, Florida) Over the years, Phoenix Phyre has changed locations throughout the State of Florida in past years, but has seemed to settle into Lakelad, which is more convenient for South Florida Pagans & Wiccans. Last time I attended this festival, we found ourselves just over the state line into Georgia.  Phoenix Phyre has always tended to attract a strong elder (“wise ones” not old people) base from the Community and we have a wonderful time catching up with old friends we hadn’t seen in a long, long time as well as meeting many more new friends. The Fall main … Continue reading
