		<title>A Living Edda</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It probably goes without saying that I&#8217;ve been waiting for Skyrim since its announcement over a year ago. Set in the Nords&#8217; titular homeland, it has a decidedly Scandinavian feel, and though its Gods are those of the usual Elder Scrolls setting, I squee&#8217;d to see the introduction of a Bard&#8217;s College, something unique to<a href="http://linden-leaves.com/2011/11/21/a-living-edda/">...

		<title>In the Dark, Light; In the Cold, Warmth</title>
		<description><![CDATA[According to the Anglo-Saxon Wheel of the Year, Hallows marks the beginning of winter. I had always thought this to be a more northern phenomenon, as October would frequently be warm and we wouldn’t even begin to see frosts until November at least. Not so this year. Our First Big Snow hit today, cancelling Halloween<a href="http://linden-leaves.com/2011/10/29/in-the-dark-light-in-the-cold-warmth/">... (Read more)</a>]]></description>

		<title>Two Modern Sagas to hit British TV</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The Guardian comments on the burgeoning fascination with Norse culture in British popular media and two new television series to watch for: More than 50 years after actors Kirk Douglas and Tony Curtis donned their woollen tunics for Hollywood blockbuster The Vikings, a television series of the same name and a TV version of British<a href="http://linden-leaves.com/2011/10/24/two-modern-sagas-to-hit-british-tv/">...

		<title>My Pet Red Oak</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We have an outdoor nursery where I work, and while I was covering one of my cashiers&#8217; breaks I couldn&#8217;t help but notice two things: one, that there was a very cute tree with a few red leaves poking around the corner of the other garden booth, and that two, said tree was half off<a href="http://linden-leaves.com/2011/10/24/my-pet-red-oak/">...

		<title>Ár nDraíocht Féin &amp; the Dedicant Path</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I am now officially a member of Ár nDraíocht Féin (or, as I like to tell my friends, &#8220;I&#8217;m now a druid IRL&#8221;), albeit a loose one. The closest Grove to me is in NYC&#8211;doable, but not easy (or cheap), and I only see two other members on the official map for the whole of<a href="http://linden-leaves.com/2011/10/22/ar-ndraiocht-fein-and-the-dedicant-path/">...

		<title>Hel, Guardian &amp; Gatekeeper</title>
		<description><![CDATA[On my rosary I include three goddess beads, one for each of the tribes, giving thanks to Frig, Freo, and Hel with citrine, amber, and tiger&#8217;s eye respectively. The first two are obviously honored as the queens of their garths and homes, but calling the third &#8220;queen of the eoten or rökkr&#8221; seems more dubious,<a href="http://linden-leaves.com/2011/10/20/hel-guardian-gatekeeper/">...

		<title>Day 1: Why Saxon Paganism?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I seem to come back to this question again and again as I tease out the threads of my spiritual tapestry, drifting between paths and even religions. Right now it seems extra poignant because of the discussions I’ve been having with Eric, my Jewish boyfriend, who continually teases me that I’m going to convert and<a href="http://linden-leaves.com/2011/10/17/why-saxon-paganism/">...

		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday was the first time I smelled &#8220;Fall&#8221; in the morning, and tonight is the full moon. Perhaps I should have known that Eric and I would have had an argument about what I&#8217;ve &#8220;reaped&#8221; thus far. I think the message is that I should be thankful for what I have right now, not perpetually<a href="http://linden-leaves.com/2011/08/13/glaed-hlafmaesse/">... (Read more)</a>]]></description>
