The events of January - May of 2007 taught us something important:When Pagans set aside our rivalries and isolating behaviors, we
can accomplish REAL MAGICK! It's time to vision the next stage and then work together for on the next step.
Creating III millennium Paganism is not going to be the work of a single prophet, or a council of BNWs. In the Age of Aquarius, I believe that the important work will be done by hands without numbers. Everyone has a call to use your own talents to find a way to support the next step.
The important work will be done in our own homes, as we make choices with seven generations in mind. It will be done in our own small groups, where we support each other in PRACTICING the virtues/powers to which we aspire.
The work of cultural transformation will take place in virtual space and public spaces. Thinkers will share and sharpen ideas as they spar in chat rooms, seminaries, blogs and classes. Writers will illuminate certain facets of the Divine Reality in which we live move and have our being. Healers will draw out the poisonous ideas implanted in the childhood of so many of us. Practical organizers will help us use our resources more effectively. Artists will inspire us all. Entrepreneurs will invent new services for our community and alternative institutions which better fit our values. Activists will urge us out of our enclaves and into the political arena, lobbying, attending town hall meetings, joining school and library boards.
And EVERYONE who seeks to serve can find a way to lead as best fits your talents, opportunities, and passions.
In that
spirit, for the past seven years, CUUPS-TwinCities has provided TwinCities Pagan News to publicize Public Pagan Events.
This is Paganistan's hometown paper. We hope you'll share
news of all the little civil rights victories -- companies that
honor our holydays, etc. But ALSO, we hope you'll share
announcements of new stores, Pagan focused local music events,
opportunities to collaborate and memorial services on the Paganistan Local News page.
