Mushroom Broth Recipe
There’s a pretty simple backstory here: I wanted to make soup, but when I went to buy groceries the store was out of both vegetable broth and bouillon, but had mushrooms on sale. I did some Internet searching and learned that making your own broth is pretty simple and easy, so I decided to try…

Pagan Wedding Planning (Part 1)
If you’re like the vast majority of pagans, you probably have friends, family, or other people you care about who are not pagan. It’s highly likely that you will have guests at your wedding who do not share your beliefs. We can only hope that our non-pagan loved ones are open-minded, understanding, and supportive of…

The Great Handfasting Project: Secular Wedding Planning Books
While historical sources about pre-Christian weddings and books written by modern pagans can give you a lot of good ideas for your ceremony, many of them don’t cover the most stressful part of getting married: planning, budgeting, scheduling, and managing a modern wedding. My fiance and I decided in December to move our wedding date…

The Viking Spirit by Daniel McCoy: A Mini-Review
Note: This was originally posted in a reblog of an anonymous ask to @skaldish on Tumblr.

Like Zan mentioned, it’s an okay resource and…

Does anyone else feel like Halloween has totally crept up on them this year? This is my favorite holiday, but I feel like I just…

Rich white people aren’t sympathetic: a review of The Hunting Party by Lucy Foley
Hey guys, I’m aware that this isn’t really my usual type of content (not counting my short-lived attempt at book blogging, which actually started as a project for a journalism class), but I’m coming off my second week in a row of overtime while also trying to finish my bachelor’s degree and promote my new…

Norse Pagan “Holy Water”
Note: This is something I’ve come up with by combining my American folk magic practice with Heathen cosmology and prayer. While some modern Heathen magic is based on spells found in historic sources, that’s not what this is. This is 100% modern and 100% of my own creation. As someone who practices Southern/Appalachian folk magic…
