Description
Steeped in tradition–“Those of us who call ourselves Pagan owe a debt to all those who came before us”–and based on more than a quarter century of research and practice, A Book of Pagan Prayer teaches us to pray in the ways of our ancestors for very brand new times and concerns.
Changes to this revised edition include rearranged chapters and prayers and the addition of two new chapters, all of which make the book easier to use. The chapters are now arranged in an order that follows a ritual, and all of the litanies have been moved to their appropriate chapters. Two new chapters–“General Requests and Offerings” and “Go back and forth, Protection, Imprecatory”–combine two types of prayers out of the general “Petitions” into one. Prayers have been labeled with the deities to which they’re addressed and arranged in logical order within each and every chapter. Prayers to new deities have also been added. As well as, a major problem with the first edition has been corrected: prayers for Lughnasadh/Lammas and Midsummer, two of the eight great neopagan holidays, have been added.
A unique selection of nearly 500 prayers written to fulfill the needs of up to date pagans from quite a few traditions, A Book of Pagan Prayer is a book to turn to time and again.
