Copper Moon E-zine

September is Tarot Month at Copper Moon!

We are so excited to announce a fantastic new concept to Copper Moon E-zine - theme months. Okay, this is how it began . . . Steel Witch and I wanted to have a central idea covered in depth, and well,  one month seems like the perfect duration of time.  We still will cover other topics, so nothing is "on hold" its more that the e-zine will focus on this main idea. To really cover the Tarot from different angles and perspectives.

One of our goals is to have a new theme every month - but life gets crazy so this is unlikely. Maybe that element of surprise will be even more exciting. I mean, you never know what could come next!

Llewellyn's Sabbat's Almanac

Reviewed by Gwinevere Rain

Recently I had the opportunity to review one of the newest annuals by Llewellyn Worldwide, it's called the Sabbat's Almanac and contains a variety of articles each covering the Wiccan/Pagan holidays. Several authors came together to contribute their individuals works detailing everything from an overview of the holiday, crafts you can make, recipes you can cook, even how the planets will astrologically influence each holiday.

I really liked the dense amount of information with a fantastic collaborators like Fern Feto Spring, Dan Furst, Kristen Madden, Silver RavenWolf and Lydia M. Crabtree and more. Our very own Gede Parma contributed a great article for Lughnasadh (page 264).

Each piece offered new information with traditions of the past and suggestions for celebration. Occasionally, there were articles that seemed to repeat what the previous had just covered, but that can happen when trying to pull multiple works together on the same subject.

It is worth noting that even though this is labeled as an almanac, there aren't any datebook style pages with spaces to fill in your appointments. Neither are there day by day assessments of the moon's course or astrological annotations.

However, I think this annual will really appeal to those who enjoyed Edain McCoy's Sabbat book . . . only they may find more variety in Llewellyn's Sabbat Almanac. Finally, the beautiful gender neutral cover and delightful interior art complete out a well rounded 300 page guide.
