Time for the hammer..
Posted by Morrighan on April 29, 2009 at 8:49 am | Last modified: April 29, 2009 8:49 amPlease take a moment to go to the Asatru Military Family Support Program’s web site to sign our petition asking the Department of Veterans Affairs to authorize Thor’s Hammer on headstones for veterans of the Asatru Faith.
It’s easy! Go to http://hammerproject.org …then click on “Sign Petition” on the navigation bar…then at the bottom of the page that comes up, hit “Sign Petition!”
Feel free to leave comments, especially if you are a veteran!
Please pass this on to everyone you know – regardless of religion, politics, pro- or anti-war! – who might sign it.
Oh – enjoy the rest of the site while you’re there, too!
Thank you!

Creating New Pagan Family Traditions – Chapbook Series
Posted by Morrighan on April 24, 2009 at 5:57 am | Last modified: April 24, 2009 7:59 amThe girls and I picked up the supplies for the chapbooks yesterday, along with the first printings of the covers for Litha and Lughnasadh. They look great! I can’t wait to get started…
Each chapbook will have Sabbat information, sample ritual, activity suggestions for kids, sample menu with recipes, crafts, youth-centered fiction and paper activities (coloring, picture search, etc.).
These two releases are our market test – should they go well, we may be submitting to a handful of publishers with the full chapbook series.
Litha
by Jodi Lee
incl. sections by Rhia and Care
The first chapbook in the ‘Creating new Pagan family traditions’ series will be released May 5th, available here and through our Etsy page. We’re considering an e-book edition, too.
Hand-assembled chapbook: $7.00 + $3.00 s&h
(possible) e-book: $3.50
Pre-orders: sales <{@}> sacredtriskele.net
Lughnasadh
by Jodi Lee
incl. sections by Rhia and Care
The second chapbook will be released in late June, and we’ll probably have pre-orders starting a week or two before release.

Denessa Smith Memorial Celebration
Wednesday, August 13, 2008
7pm to 10 pm
7:30 pm Ritual
Bishop Park, Wyandotte, MI
Please join the Pagan community to honor Denessa’s life and work. Come raise your voices with Michelle Belanger, Dorothy Morrison, Coventry Creations, Cov/42 Productions, FOCAS, MEC, Pagan Path Community Center, Pagan Pride Detroit, Undeniable Entertainment, Witches of Michigan and members of the Tempest Smith Foundation along with tributes from Christopher Penczak and Kerr Cuhulian.
Denessa was able to bring hope out of tragedy, and that will be our goal with this group ritual.
This ceremony is going to be a memorial, but it is also going to be a celebration. Denessa was a woman who drank deeply of wine and pleasure and flesh and joy, and, accordingly, we ask that people bring their best desserts and other favorite sweets and drinks to share (as it’s a public park, no alcohol). Please also bring a chair. If you have not shared comments for the family at www.mec-mi.org, feel free to bring a single page with a blessing, comment, or prayer for Denessa that will be passed on to the family.
If you would like to make donations to the family or to continue Denessa’s vision, you may bring a check made out to Annette Crossman or follow the instructions on the above website.
