Legend of the Yule Cat By Silver Phoenix
"The legend of the Yule Cat comes to us from Iceland, quite literally a land of fire and ice. According to an Old Norse creation myth, the void from which life initially came was the space between the extremes of cold and heat. Ice and Fire.

Honor Among Pagans By Silver Phoenix.
"Here's the scenario: You post an original piece of work on the internet and two things are guaranteed to happen:
1) Someone will read it.
2) Someone will plagiarize it.
Webster's Dictionary defines plagiarism this way: "to take another's writings, etc. and pass them off as one's own." We've all seen this many times on the internet. Go searching for any topic. You will pull up dozens of cookie-cutter paragraphs-all with different website addresses. How do you know who the original author of this information was? Many times, you don't. Most of the time, the author is never credited. Even if the information taken from their work is copyrighted and published in book form."

Finding the Pagan Path, A Journey of the Soul By Arimid
"In the middle of the journey of our life
I came to myself in a dark wood
Where the straight way was lost."
Dante's Inferno
I came to Paganism by way of The Long and Arduous Journey from a Particularly Patriarchal Cult of Christianity. It was the religion of my parents, whose conversion took place when I was 5 years old.
