The Art of Dealing with Ambiguity in the Craft

The Art of Dealing with Ambiguity in the Craft

By Alder on 30 januari, 2019

When you are confronted with something that is uncertain, and cannot figure it out — what do you do?

Review: Traditional Wicca, ‘A Seeker’s Guide’ by Thorn Mooney

Review: Traditional Wicca, ‘A Seeker’s Guide’ by Thorn Mooney

By Alder on 27 oktober, 2018

Thorn Mooney opens doors to seekers, not by writing about the subjects of most introductions on Wicca, but by posing the questions that are relevant, sharing her own experiences and struggles. A must-read for seekers and for teachers on Wicca.

The Path of the Seeker - part 2

The Path of the Seeker – part 2

By Alder on 24 oktober, 2018

The Craft has a myriad of unspoken rules, messages between lines, that tend to be overlooked by Seekers. There is no Handbook or Rulebook that can tell a Seeker how to seek. There are, however, principles or aspects that are particularly considered by those who guard the threshold of this magical tradition. Alder gives some practical tips.

Review: Garbed in Green

Review: Garbed in Green

By Alder on 29 juli, 2018

From the Sumerian gala priests and the Phoenician kelev, to the renown Native American Two Spirits, Casey explores the key role of homosexual or queer priesthood (or ‘sacred personhood’) throughout the foundation of our culture.

Birth, and Death, and Initiation in the Craft in the 21st Century

Birth, and Death, and Initiation in the Craft in the 21st Century

By Alder on 1 februari, 2017

Birth and death are closely entwined and have a connection with Initiation. An experience that can only take place through first-hand experience, which is often mistaken for elitism.

By Alder on 30 juli, 2016

Bertsolaritza, the Art of Improvisation, and Intuition

Bertsolaritza, the Art of Improvisation, and Intuition

By Alder on 29 april, 2016

The Basque ‘bersolaritza’, the creation of extemporary verses, can teach us about a Craft technique, allowing the creative forces to become manifest.

Understanding Polarity in the 21st Century

Understanding Polarity in the 21st Century

By Alder on 31 januari, 2016

Polarity, seems to be founded and fed by a dichotomy: male–female, and from those, positive-negative, dark–light, birth–death, and so forth. But is this the only possibility?

Microaggressions and the Youth in the Craft

Microaggressions and the Youth in the Craft

By Alder on 2 mei, 2015

Every time we treat a younger person in a less-than-human way or less capable, without considering his individual skills, we are discriminating against youth – and perpetuating a type of discrimination that has been perpetuated for centuries.

Individual Ideals in Wicca

Keep Pure Your Highest Ideal: Personal ethics in Wicca

By Alder on 2 mei, 2015

Alder asked himself: How do we enter the Circle? How much of ourselves do we bring in?, or: How much of our ideas, ideals, emotions and thoughts make it to that place between the worlds?. In the end, the answer became quite clear: all of it.
