    PF's PBP

    Okay...so there's this thing (if you aren't familiar with it) called the Pagan Blog Project that happens every year (all year long) in the Pagan bloggy bloggy world... Basically, its blogging thru the alphabet on Pagan topics on a weekly basis.

    I'm not sure I'm that ambitious for us here, more just curious, if you were to make your own Pagan alphabet, what would it be?

    example:

    Thal's (UUish) Pagan Alphabet
    a is for animism (or maybe altar)
    b is for bioregionalism
    c is for consciousness
    d is for Divine
    e is for exorcise (or maybe elements)
    f is for fate & free will (or flora and fauna)
    g is for gods
    h is for hearth
    i is for intuition (or maybe immanence)
    j is for justice
    k is for kind (and not kind=nice definition)
    l is for liminal (or maybe labyrinth...though a labyrinth can be liminal)
    m is for magesteria...or maybe magic
    n is for numina (or nemeton)
    o is for omnipresence
    p is for polythetic
    q is for quicksilver (or maybe quest)
    r is for rooted
    s is for spiral (or maybe spirit)
    t is for transformation
    u is for unknowing
    v is for vision (or maybe veritas or vitality)
    w is for weaving
    x is for xenia
    y is for you
    z is for zeal without zealotry

      Is this a separate thing from June's Pagan Values Month?

          A = altar/animism/academia
          B =
          C = crystals/candles
          D =
          E = Earth Worship
          F = futhark
          G = gods
          H = herbs/hearth/health
          I =
          J = joy
          K = kin
          L = listen
          M = meditation/medicine
          N = noble truths/night-blooming flowers
          O = openness
          P = pragmatism/passion
          Q = quit while you're ahead (knowing when to, that is)
          R = reason
          S = spellwork/symbolism
          T = trust/treading lightly
          U = universalism
          V =
          W = wisdom
          X =
          Y =
          Z =

          This is how far I got. I'll have to think more on the harder letters.

              They post idea prompts, so that sort of helps out...

                        Well, you could always do a little research project on xylophones and write about what you learned?

                        It might also be helpful to look what was posted last year for X - first week, second week. Seems like it's got to be two of the harder weeks to fill.

                          lol!

                          I'm planning to talk about xenia, which is the greek word for hospitality.

                          And there is also the option of using "ex" words...

                              Pretty much...there are alot of people start late, and either do a couple of old posts that they missed here and there until they catch up.

                              What sort of amuses me, is that if you look at last year, by the time Z comes around, there are only about 20 or so blogs participating.

                              Which is why I only committed myself to one topic per letter, which is one post every two weeks for it. I've been blogging for three or four years now, so I'm pretty sure I'll still be blogging, but I'm not always sure what the heck I'll be up to, ya know?
