My interests
are all over the map -- from astrology to religion to needlework. Here
is a "laundry list" which is far from complete. If you have
similar interests or just want to learn something new, then check out
my links page -- most of these topics are covered
there.
Religion and
spirituality really could have a page all its own. I have vastly diversified
interests in religion and spirituality, but my main focuses involve
subjects that help me grow both as a neopagan and as a spiritual human
being.
I love books.
I love to read. Reading is both my primary escape mechanism and my main
method of learning. For a more personal look at what I read and what
I think of it, see my book of the moment
section on the reviews page.
My general interest
in history lies in the basic premise that history tells us vital stories
about who we were -- or at least who we would like to have been -- and
who we are . However, my main areas of historical interest are ancient
Egypt, pre-Christian Europe (specifically concerning the Celts and pre-Roman
Britain), the Renaissance, and Elizabethan England.
I discovered
the works of Joseph Campbell while I was in college, and have had a
passion for mythology and folklore ever since. I'm a sucker for a well-crafted
story, and the various cultures of this planet have created some of
the best examples to be had anywhere.
I have been interested
in astrology since I was about ten years old. I enjoy investigating
good information about the art of astrology as well as giving great
horoscopes! Take a look at my "Practical Astrology" columns
in the writings section.
About
five years ago I revived a childhood interest in needle crafts. I find
sewing to be very relaxing and meditative since it forces me to focus
and shut out the distractions of daily life. I currently enjoy cross-stitch
and embroidery the most, but I am also attempting to learn crochet and
basic weaving. My favorite motifs are Celtic and Anglo-Saxon designs,
nature, fantasy figures, and historical reproductions based on actual
pieces of needlework from the Renaissance period forward. I love creating
these works of art.
