GERALD B. GARDNER CALENDAR


Gerald B. Gardner Calendar,
reviewed by
Edward Livingston

This calendar contains historical articles from 1954-1986 with photos, interviews and quotes from Gerald Gardner, Doreen Valiente, Patricia Crowther and Monique Wilson.  It also contains materials from Gerald Gardner's "Museum of Magic and Witchcraft " which was bequeathed to Monique Wilson upon Gardner's death.

The goal of this calendar is to share and preserve these materials for those who will learn from our history, while creating an educational and entertaining conversation piece for your home!  The Pagan Feast Days are interesting tidbits from cultures all around the world.  They can be used to tailor your own rituals, to learn more about dieties that interest you, or to better sense the unique energies of that day.  (Special thanks to Lady Cara, who shared source material describing these Pagan Feast Days.)

Full and New Moons are taken from US Naval Observatory data and other sources.  Each moon shows the Zodiac sign where the Moon is for that day.  For example, January's New Moon is in Capricorn.

A donation will be made to the Centre for Pagan Studies in the UK to help preserve Doreen Valiente's archives and other services to our community.

The term "a year and a day" brings us to the very special 366th day on this calendar.
