Gnosis Diary: Life as a Heathen
My personal experiences, including religious and spiritual experiences, community interaction, general heathenry, and modern life on my heathen path, which is Asatru.
Heathen Calendar and Slavic Calendar 2017
The calendar seeds I planted last February and March have come to fruition. The Heathen Calendar and Slavic Calendar Projects 2017 are now published through Spero Publishing, an imprint of Caliburn Press, and available on lulu. I am incredibly relieved, because producing the Heathen Calendar was a Yule boar oath, and now it is fulfilled.
I ordered some Calendars and hope they arrive in time to vend them from the American Asatru Association booth I'll be staffing at my local Pagan Pride Day next Saturday. At PPD I'll also be giving a talk about Asatru, teaching a drum circle workshop, and participating in a panel of different traditions from the local community.
The Calendar Projects involved math, reading texts in languages I don't speak, and dealing with the inadequacies of public domain art. They were quite challenging. I'm grateful to Alan and Bekki at Spero for having the idea to produce calendars, for assigning the projects to me, and for seeing the projects through to publication. If we produce calendars again for 2018, I hope to license art from living artists.
