Most
Pagan parents approach the Christmas season with trepidation knowing
that because it is a cultural festival firmly entrenched into
our society that the inevitable question will be asked of our

Your have heard all the talk about "The
Ancient Ways Incorporated"and we know it has
pinged your interest but a lot of people are overly shy to get
involved. TAWI is the first of it;'s kind in Australia if not
the rest of the World. It is not an alliance or association or
any kind of political heirarchy or pagan promotional group. It
is a Community Service and Network Organisation set up to assist
pagan families in need.
Michael Wallace contributes a wonderful concise article about
Divination. Very informative essay from the man who brought you
his marvellous story "The
Green Glasses"
If you liked my little "Angel on the Christmas
Tree" poem then have I got a treat for you. Seems I am not
the only one with a slightly Twisted slant on that old gem "Night
Before Christmas". Olivia Watts and Robert O. Scott have
it seems kindred souls and have there own amusing twist on the
old chestnut.
