This second volume of Celebrating the Seasons of Life explores Wicca’s relationship with other religions. Wicca is the largest and best-known Neo-Pagan religion, but it is not then only one— Northern Paganism (Asatru) and Druidry share its traditions. Do you know which Runes are associated with summer Sabbats? Are you aware of the Druid associations with them? Celebrating the Seasons of Life acknowledges these links and incorporates material designed to emphasize these religions’ shared heritage.
