Re: Pagan Magazines.
I can read for hours and hours if im holding a book or a magazine. But I just can't seem to read off a screen for any length of time. Guess thats why I'll never have a Kindle."Men of broader intellect know that there is no sharp distinction betwixt the real and the unreal..."

Re: Pagan Magazines.
What about Witchcraft and Wicca Magazine (you need to go to the Children of Artemis website to order a copy). ? It's published about twice a year, (I write for it too!) and you can always order back copies. It's a beautifullly produced magazine and covers a wide range of topics and authors.

Re: Pagan Magazines.
You're British right? Then maybe I can help. The two leading generic pagan magazines here are Pagan Dawn, which is the official journal of the Pagan Federation and The Cauldron, which is an independent glossy.
Pagan Dawn, which comes out quarterly, is a rather drab looking mag, but nonetheless has some interesting articles in. The most valuable part is what are known as 'the green pages'. The green pages are in the middle of the journal and list groups, moots and events in various areas around the country. It's kind of a way to help us get more connected. You don't have to join the PF to subscribe to the magazine, but subscription is included in membership.
The Cauldron is a colourful glossy magazine that is usually available in New Age stores. It's slightly more leaning towards the Wicca/witchcraft crowd, but it contains plenty for Pagans of other paths.
Then possibly the most popular of all and unashamedly aimed only at witches, is 'Witchcraft and Wicca'. This is a small but full colour magazine that is produced by The Children of Artemis. Despite being a witch myself, I am not too impressed by this one. It is full of adverts for gothic style clothing and pointlessly elaborate ritual tools. The photos are invariably always of gothic looking teens with moody expressions holding brooms or staring at candles. I have nothing against witches being goths too, but as a stereotype, it is just annoying. The articles are rarely mind blowing either. This is just my opinion though.
There are also mags like Third Eye and Spirit, which are more broadly about spirituality and psychic arts, but also contain articles about spells and suchlike. I wouldn't advise them if it is religious material you are after.夕方に急なにわか雨は「夕立」と呼ばれるなら、なぜ朝ににわか雨は「朝立ち」と呼ばれないの? ^^If a sudden rain shower in the evening is referred to as an 'evening stand', then why isn't a shower in the morning called 'morning stand'?

Re: Pagan Magazines.
Thank you for the replys. I think I'll give Witchcraft and Wicca a go, as well as perhaps Pagan Dawn.
As it says below my picture I'm a pantheist, but I have an interest in reading about other areas of paganism so anythings good really."Men of broader intellect know that there is no sharp distinction betwixt the real and the unreal..."

Re: Pagan Magazines.
Sorry Tylluan, your post wasn't there when I wrote mine. I'd have chosen my words more carefully had I known someone liked the mag.
I have only read the first two, so that was a few years back now. I'm sure long before you wrote for it. I someties flick through when I am in the new age store that sells it, but I'll bet it's unlikely I'd have noticed your articles, and it's been about 2 years since I laid hands on one. Sometimes there was some interesting stuff but it just seemed so damned commercial.
I did enjoy the online magazine you wrote for though (and yes, I include your article in that!).
There seems to have been quite a shift from the PF to the CoA around here though. Not sure if this is country wide as I don't (yet) concern myself much with the wider community. Just my old Pagan friends give me a poke and keep me updated (their version anyway). I don't want to get into politics but I bet you have a good idea what I am talking about when I say certain 'high ups' in the PF have been throwing just a little too much weight. People who were valued reps for the PF for 10-20 years, have since left and changed affiliation. So maybe this has brought an older, wiser membership base to CoA and it has evolved into a much more enlightening magazine.
To be honest, I get some of the best enjoyment and inspiration just from reading this forum and chatting with the folks I used to circle or moot with.夕方に急なにわか雨は「夕立」と呼ばれるなら、なぜ朝ににわか雨は「朝立ち」と呼ばれないの? ^^If a sudden rain shower in the evening is referred to as an 'evening stand', then why isn't a shower in the morning called 'morning stand'?

Re: Pagan Magazines.
There is such a great mixture of individuals that it couldn't possibly lean too much in one direction either. There are some amazing minds here too. I would definitely read it!夕方に急なにわか雨は「夕立」と呼ばれるなら、なぜ朝ににわか雨は「朝立ち」と呼ばれないの? ^^If a sudden rain shower in the evening is referred to as an 'evening stand', then why isn't a shower in the morning called 'morning stand'?
