Blessings of Avalon to you! Welcome to my new Blog.
Why another blog?
I will probably still use my Livejournal blog now and again, and am looking into setting up an RSS feed there so I won’t lose contact with LJ users, but I’d like to start blogging more often and thought I’d start the new year with a clean slate. My LJ has become more of an announcement blog than anything else and I would like to present something with a bit more content… so here we are!
In addition to my own musings, news and Awen, I am hoping to post some ongoing features that will be of interest to the broader Goddess community — and I believe community is the key word here. In the Sisterhood of Avalon, we do a great deal of work surrounding the concept of creating conscious community and the responsibilities that each of us have to uphold our weave in the tapestry. Part of what I find so incredible about the internet is the way in which it brings people and ideas together, creating a powerful tapestry indeed.
In this spirit, therefore, I am looking to honor women who are making a difference in the world of Women’s Spirituality through their writing, art, music, leadership, and activism. If you would like to recommend a woman to be profiled in this blog, please email me and tell me a bit about them and their work.
I will also periodically spotlight some of the amazing creators and artisans I have the privilege of knowing, or whose work I especially admire. Supporting those who create is an important part of making community, especially through alternative means of energy exchanges, as in the gift economy and through bartering systems.
Of course, I will be posting about my own work and my service to the Avalonian Tradition, and will include news and information I think will be of interest to those connected to Ynys Afallon, Druidism, and Celtic cultures, especially the Celts of Britain and the modern Welsh.
I look forward to seeing where this journey will lead, and hope you will join me!
