 This summer issue focuses on earth-based spirituality--Pagan traditions of Old Europe and local adaptations of ceremonies and seasonal rituals. This array of articles and interviews has barely scratched the surface in exploring the sacred knowledge, practices and wisdom of representative women from our local communities. Yet, their sharing may provide our readers with an ever broadening appreciation and understanding of the relationship between humans, the Earth, the cosmos and the creator. Our cover artist, oil painter Suzanne deVeuve of Cazadero, shares an array of cultural/spiritual influences that she has adapted in a deeply personal way. Her interview reveals a balance of aliveness, depth of compassion and sensitivity to the worlds within and around her. Our Fall-Winter double issue will have a community focus and feature an expanded Business and Service Directory that can be placed with your phone book for easy access. You can see last year's Directory at our website. With this next issue, we will be offering our Directory advertisers their own websites at a very affordable price. These web pages start with up to three images and will be linked to Sojourn's Directory. We encourage our readers and northern California community members to send articles, artwork, poetry and short stories for this and future publications. |
