Wheel of Wonder August 22, 2010

Glad to be back after a fine journey across this country! This week on Wheel of Wonder we'll be talking about Wicca. We'll compare and contrast the many different approaches modern pagans travel on their Wiccan Path. There is Tamaran Wicca, Celt-Eclectic Wicca, Gardenarian Wicca, the Wiccan reclaiming Tradition made well known by the work of Starhawk. There is even Solitary Practitioners within Wicca. this week we'll try to cover all of these approaches to earth-centered spirituality. It may even prove easier than understanding all of the different variations of Christian Protestantism (has anyone ever written a work of reference on that?) This week's Wheel of Wonder will include sourcepoint info from practitioners of Wicca or "The Craft" as sometimes it is called. Also, all the great music you expect the majority of the Program to include!

Wheel of Wonder January 3, 2010

Happy New Year! This week on Wheel of Wonder we'll launch off a ways from our usual Celtic Flavor and journey to Egypt to explore Kemetic Paganism. Though most Kemetics would not likely refer to their religion as Pagan, considering it is far older than such a term. What I can tell you though, is that is about achieving Balance and evolving into a perfect enough entity to achieve divinity. There is also a form of Wicca known as Tameran Wicca, which , while still observing the wheel of the year, pray to the family of Osiris and his wife/sister Isis, and their falcon-headed son, Horus. This is called a trinity. Sacred symbols such a the Ankh (Egyptian symbol for life), and the Eye of Horus, or The All Seeing Eye are very popular in this sect. We will speak about both this week on Wheel of Wonder, and even try and find time to speak about the Ennead, the Kemetic Tree of life. This week also features new music from Telling the Bees, and other music from the TESC world Music stacks; music coming straight from Egypt. Tune in for Wheel of Wonder this Sunday Morning!
