A Point of View: Seasons Greetings!

Posted in Necromancy, Other with tags , , , , , on December 28, 2013 by Sypheara

Hello all, I hope you have had and are having a fantastic Christmas/Yule/Saturnalia/holidays/whatever you wish to call it. I apologise for being unable to post over the last few days, but I have been busy with family and friend stuff which as you can hopefully imagine, has to come first.

Therefore firstly, I’d like to wish you all  a very merry whatever you call it! I have two small updates for you all, which you may find an interesting read.

Firstly, I stumbled across a recent article on the BBC news site funnily enough, which brings a more secular, outsider perspective to the concept of the dead and how they are treated/viewed within modern society. I thought it was highly interesting to read a non pagan / ‘religious’ / ‘spiritual’ perspective which very closely mirrored my own thought strucutrem  especially before I began working with the dead and walking a more openly pagan path. It can be found at the following link:

A Point of View: Why we banish the words of the Dead

Secondly, the write-up on the Necromancy spirit box creation is almost complete, accompanied by relevant pictures. I have decided however to rewrite this from post form into a pdf form, and distribute it as part of the resources, mainly due to how picture heavy it has turned out to be meaning it would have to be spread across several posts. No point having a resources page if I’m not going to use it!

I hope that the article above proves interesting, and again, seasons greetings to you all.
