What is Paganism? A religion, a spirituality, an alternative belief system, nature worship? You can find support for all these definitions (and many more) in dictionaries, encyclopedias, and textbooks of religion, but subscribe to any one of these and the truth will evade you. Above all Paganism is a creative pursuit, an encounter with reality, an exploration of meaning and an expression of the soul. Druids, Heathens, Wiccans and others, all contribute their insights and literary riches to the Pagan tradition. Moon Books Publishing invites you to begin or to deepen your own encounter, right here, right now.

Fascinating! I have a cat, of course and she is my faithful companion. Beyond that, the next door neighbors cat has jumped up on my synth twice lately, while I was playing it and changed the effects, then began playing with his rear and paws. I came up with two new, very good songs, because of his antics. It made me commit to writing a musical. So, this post really made me smile!
