Pagan Every Day

Book Review by: Dr_Tami_Brady    

Original Author: Barbara Ardinger
Pagan Every Day is directed at the “pagan” but as the author explains this word really just refers to any belief system that
is Non-Christian. It is not that Christianity is trashed in this book on the contrary the author has been very careful to represent and be lovingly tolerant of all traditions. The entries simply examine history, mythology, and beliefs that tend have more than one God or Goddess or that share insight into the living earth. Topics are too numerous to mention and I have bookmarks and written notations marking up most of the book. There is a lot of information on Greek, Roman, Sumerian, and Egyptian Deities complete with references showing the evolutions and connections between these different beings amongst different cultures. There are interesting sections describing the practices of different traditions from Buddhism to Wicca. The author describes some locations that I definitely have to visit. She even shares a few spells and some contemplative activities to undertake. Since I had to do a review of Pagan Every Day, I read this book from start to end. I was overwhelmed with the interesting information, great ideas, and little comments that really made me think. Now that I’ve completed this review, I can go back and more leisurely reread the entries. This way, I can take in a lot more of the information, do a little more research in some of the areas that really intrigued me when I read them the first time, and take a little more time to contemplate some of the notions presented.
