I am a Latin teacher currently (and laboriously) working my way toward a PhD in Classics.

Most Neopagan are more than familiar with the Traditional Neopagan/Wiccan Wheel of the Year. In Eclectic Wicca the Myth of the Wheel follows the dance of the God and Goddess. The God is born of the Goddess on Yule. The God matures from a newborn to a young man during Imbolc and . . . → Read More: The Dianic Wiccan Wheel of the Year

I have a few thoughts on the subject, which I doubt will end the matter, but perhaps shed a certain Pagan light on it.
