In this book, John Simone presents information based on his own experiences with the Neo-Pagan spiritual path over a 42 year period, along with additional research that included a survey of Neo-Pagan men completed in 2011. This book explores the male Neo-Pagan experience. From learning to access Goddess energy to creating positive change, men are increasingly drawn to the Neo-Pagan spiritual path because it is an intensely personal experience. Neo-Pagan men determine their own spiritual path. No two spiritual paths are exactly alike. Learn how to access your own innate belief system to create a rewarding life that honors your circumstances and experiences. * An explanation of masculine and feminine energy. * Why ethics are important to the Neo-Pagan spiritual path. * Exploration of scientific theory that supports Neo-Pagan theory and practice, including quantum physics. * How Neo-Pagan men can access God and Goddess energy. * An exploration of the definitions of masculinity. * How male Neo-Pagans fit into a spiritual path that is often viewed as Goddess-based. * Using God archetypes to access masculine energy. * Ritual and practical magick in theory and practice. * Adapting ritual and spellcasting to work for you. Simone also examines the practice of Folk Magick and explores how Neo-Pagans can create positive change using magick.

Britain's pagan past, with its mysterious monuments, atmospheric sites, enigmatic artifacts, bloodthirsty legends, and cryptic inscriptions, is both enthralling and perplexing to a resident of the twenty-first century. In this ambitious and thoroughly up-to-date book, Ronald Hutton reveals the long development, rapid suppression, and enduring cultural significance of paganism, from the Paleolithic Era to the coming of Christianity. He draws on an array of recently discovered evidence and shows how new findings have radically transformed understandings of belief and ritual in Britain before the arrival of organized religion. Setting forth a chronological narrative, Hutton along the way makes side visits to explore specific locations of ancient pagan activity. He includes the well-known sacred sites—Stonehenge, Avebury, Seahenge, Maiden Castle, Anglesey—as well as more obscure locations across the mainland and coastal islands. In tireless pursuit of the elusive “why” of pagan behavior, Hutton astonishes with the breadth of his understanding of Britain’s deep past and inspires with the originality of his insights.

In the 1920s, when Laura Dillon felt like a man trapped in a woman's body, there were no words to describe her condition; transsexual had yet to enter common usage. And there was no known solution to being stuck between the sexes. In a desperate bid to feel comfortable in her own skin, she experimented with breakthrough technologies that ultimately transformed the human body and revolutionized medicine. Michael Dillon's incredible story, from upper-class orphan girl to Buddhist monk, reveals the struggles of early transsexuals and challenges conventional notions of what gender really means.

The Celestial Church has all but eliminated the old pagan ways, ruling the people with an iron hand. Demonic gheists terrorize the land, hunted by the warriors of the Inquisition, yet it’s the battling factions within the Church and age-old hatreds between north and south that tear the land apart. Malcolm Blakley, hero of the Reaver War, seeks to end the conflict between men, yet it will fall to his son, Ian, and the huntress Gwen Adair to stop the killing before it tears the land apart. The Pagan Night is an epic of mad gods, inquisitor priests, holy knights bound to hunt and kill, and noble houses fighting battles of politics, prejudice, and power.
