Pagan dates

The best advice I can give to a lazy witch like myself is to get a witch's calender. It has all the dates of full moons and pagan festivals as well as tips and advice on appropriate rituals for the time of year.

I normally buy something like Llewellyn's Witches' Calendar, or get it given to me as a Yule present.

However, I recently found a wonderful Pagan calendar that is downloadable for free as a PDF. It shows pagan, witch, druid and heathen festivals, dates and events as well as neo-pagan festivals and religious holidays. The calender tells me that today the moon enters Capricorn at 6:50 pm GMT.

There are also links to find out more information about any of the calender entries.

I confess I always like those little symbols that you get in calendars that tell you the phases of the moon. But which way round are they? Is the white bit the moon - or the black bit? Very puzzling...

Witch's calenders usually show the moon symbols clearer than ordinary calenders because the people who make them realise witches need this information. On the calendar I have on my wall - a 2007 Witch's Calender - the moon is in white and is the same shape as it appears in the night sky on that date. The pagan calender I mention in my blog has a good key to what the symbols mean, although the symbols themselves are a bit tiny.
