A Pagan Faire A PAGAN FAIRE FRIDAY - SUNDAY JULY 10TH– 12TH, 2020 Virtually and around th4 World 12 noon—12 midnight Fri/Sat 12noon—9pm Sunday 1 Welcome to the 9th Annual WitchsFest USA A Pagan Faire We wish to thank you all for joining us this weekend and for being the amazing human beings that you all are. As a people in general we are proud that we live in a city and country like NYC & USA that allows us the right to put on and be part of events like this. Thanks to our Present- ers, Performers, Psychics, Information Groups and Ven- dors. The purpose of WitchsFest USA is first and foremost to raise funds to purchase property to house the NYC Wic- can Family Temple. Thereby, aiding us in providing a per- manent space for service for our many types of rituals/ worship like any other church, temple or spiritual based religion allowable in this country. Open to pagans of all traditions and spirituality at large, where we can meet, learn, share and celebrate. Our sincerest wish for us all: • To foster a more united pagan community within all of our many cities around the United States. • To create a more stabilized base for the NYC Wiccan Family Temple, our Guests, Celebrants and Mem- bers. Since its inception in 2012, I am so proud to say that each year we are seeing more and more of the many pa- gan groups learning to accept and treat each other with great respect and standing in solidarity in support of one another. So again, thank you all for joining us as we’ve had to move from a physical to virtual event this year. From all of us of the NYC Wiccan Family Temple, Blessed Be to you all! 2 SCHEDULE OF EVENTS - Friday 7 / 10 Time Land of the Marie Middle Morgan Le Tituba's Fae Fairy Laveau's Earth Earth Fay's Water Mystic Realm Realm Underworld Realm Realm Realm 11:00 am WITCH PRIDE PARADE OF ELDERS….

  • From Healer to Heretic: Tracing the Path of the Witchwomen, Wicca, and the Magick of the Ephemeral Marianna Leishman
    MP: An Online Feminist Journal January 2007. Volume 1, Issue 5 From Healer to Heretic: Tracing the Path of the WitchWomen, Wicca, and the Magick of the Ephemeral Marianna Leishman With many pagan rites and festivals celebrating matriarchal spiritualities and the feminine, Wicca’s emphasis on the sacredness of the individual and the earth is a far cry from the inundation of wicked Witches appearing in popular culture and the Middle Ages. To an extent a feminist reaction to medieval portrayals of Witches, Wicca revives ancient magickal, shamanistic and tribal wisdoms from rituals around the globe. Intent on correcting former images of women as either saint or sinner,1 Wicca entails a liberation and legitimation of feminine independence through celebrating menstrual, lunar, and life cycles of maiden, mother, and crone. Magick, the art of changing consciousness at will, gives women a sense of power over their own lives.2 Striking similarities discovered by anthropologists between historical Witch practices in Europe, Africa, the Americas, and the Pacific,3 illustrate a pervasive magickal worldview in which women were celebrated as midwives, healers, conjurers, seers, diviners and powerful sorcerers. Transmuted and modified under Christian influence,4 the concept of maleficium and heresy became increasingly attached to older, pagan elements of Witchcraft, and it adopted a unique stigma as an ecclesiastical crime.5 Hyped depictions of the medieval Witch were “not only female, but evil, old, and ugly,”6 a stereotype in contrast with women’s liberty in Pagandom.7 Societal beliefs in women’s inherent wickedness, them being “more foolish, and more apt to mistake..

Chapter One: Beneath the Spanish Moss: The World of the Root Doctor History is the version of past events that people have decided to agree upon. Napoleon Bonaparte (1769-1821) The thing always happens that you really believe in; and the belief in a thing makes it happen. Frank Lloyd Wright, architect (1869-1959) For many of us growing up in the 1960s rural South, the world of ghosts, witches and magic was never far away. Grandparents and parents often told hair-raising stories of mysterious happenings and eerie events as a form of entertainment, as children sat entranced in wide-eyed amazement. The idea of a ghost or witch out there in the dark filled many a night with excitement and wonder. In many homes, the sense of the presence of a beloved, deceased family member was often noted with comfort and the reassurance that we would someday “meet on that golden shore.” In this era, before the Internet and television’s mindless absorption of our free time, we often felt we could sense that which was unseen, and provided we didn’t make too much of a fuss about it, we were free to believe in the miraculous without fear of rebuke or censure.

  • Continuing Conjure: African-Based Spiritual Traditions in Colson Whitehead’S the Underground Railroad and Jesmyn Ward’S Sing, Unburied, Sing
    religions Article Continuing Conjure: African-Based Spiritual Traditions in Colson Whitehead’s The Underground Railroad and Jesmyn Ward’s Sing, Unburied, Sing James Mellis Guttman Community College, 50 West 40th St., New York, NY 10018, USA; [email protected] Received: 10 April 2019; Accepted: 23 June 2019; Published: 26 June 2019 Abstract: In 2016 and 2017, Colson Whitehead’s The Underground Railroad and Jesmyn Ward’s Sing, Unburied, Sing both won the National Book Award for fiction, the first time that two African-American writers have won the award in consecutive years. This article argues that both novels invoke African-based spirituality in order to create literary sites of resistance both within the narrative of the respective novels, but also within American culture at large. By drawing on a tradition of authors using African-based spiritual practices, particularly Voodoo, hoodoo, conjure and rootwork, Whitehead and Ward enter and engage in a tradition of African American protest literature based on African spiritual traditions, and use these traditions variously, both as a tie to an originary African identity, but also as protection and a locus of resistance to an oppressive society. That the characters within the novels engage in African spiritual traditions as a means of locating a sense of “home” within an oppressive white world, despite the novels being set centuries apart, shows that these traditions provide a possibility for empowerment and protest and can act as a means for contemporary readers to address their own political and social concerns. Keywords: voodoo; conjure; African-American literature; protest literature; African American culture; Whitehead; Ward; American literature; popular culture And we are walking together, cause we love one another There are ghosts at our table, they are feasting tonight.

    Pagan World 29 Pagan World 29 Year 8 Issue 1 March 21, 2006 Welcome to the 29th issue of Pagan World! After a one year hiatus, it is great to be back with my 'baby' Pagan World! A big thanks to Celeb for taking such good care of Pagan World during my one-year absence! L L A bit of history about Pagan World : This magazine began as a hard-copy only newsletter back in 1997, when Tony Kemp, who at the time was the International Coordinator of the PFI, realized that European members of the UK based Pagan Federation should have a newsletter for themselves, giving us more 'local' information than the UK oriented member magazine Pagan Dawn. So on top of all of his other PF work, in 1998 Tony published two issues of a newsletter that he called Europa . In March 1999, being buried under with writing his own books and other personal obligations, Tony Kemp handed over the editorship of Europa to me and his position as International Coordinator over to Morgana. We then immediately began to produce Europa every 3 months in both a hard-copy version (for members without an internet connection), as well as an online version. The online version served 3 important purposes: 1) it cut our costs greatly letting us use the extra cash to organize more conferences and activities 2) it allowed us to spread our Pagan wings worldwide 3) and last but not least, we killed less trees. It quickly became apparent that the online version 'worked'. Not only had the Pagan Federation branched out of the UK into Europe, but into the rest of the World.

Also known as conjure, it is a tradition of magical practice that developed from the syncretism of a number of separate cultures and magical traditions. Hoodoo incorporates practices from African and Native American traditions, as well as some European magical practices and grimoires. While folk practices like hoodoo are trans-cultural phenomena, what is particularly innovative in this tradition is the "remarkably efficacious use of biblical figures" in its practices and in the lives of its practitioners.[1] The word hoodoo first was documented in American English in 1875 and was listed as a noun or a transitive verb.[2][3] In African American Vernacular English (AAVE), it is often used to describe a magic spell or potion, but it may also be used as an adjective for a practitioner.
