− | In February | + | In February our seed lay dormant. In March we planted it with intention and saw it sprout. In May, our dreams started to take on physical form and we celebrated the power of growth and raised the energy of the May pole. |

+ | Now we stand halfway between the season of planting and the season of harvesting. The sun reaches its highest point and we celebrate the longest day and shortest night. Although the hottest days of summer still lie ahead, from this point onward we enter the waning year, and each day the sun will recede from the skies a little earlier. The earth is pregnant with the coming harvest's bounty as we continue to nurture new life both in the ground and in our practices. | ||
This is an open public ritual. It is intended both for those curious about Paganism and for practicing Pagans. All participants are equally welcome. | This is an open public ritual.

Revision as of 12:37, 22 June 2013
Welcome to the MIT PSG Wiki - Homepage of the MIT Pagan Students' Group
The MIT Pagan Students' Group is a support network for Pagans in the MIT community. We welcome MIT students, employees, family members and anyone else in the MIT community with an interest in Paganism. In addition to organizing meetings and hosting rituals, we work to improve the image of Paganism in our community. Paganism is an affirmation of the beauty and sacredness of life on this earth, and of our unity with it.
The MIT PSG is also an informal collection of Wiccans (ranging from hierarchical rigid traditionalists to radical separatist feminists), Discordians, Pantheists, Shamans, Taoists, and those still searching for a path. The group is open-minded enough for people interested in Paganism as a personal religious phenomenom, as a broad political agenda, or as anything in between and beyond.
To see what is going on at the PSG, please take a look at our Current Events!
You can also take a look at our Planned Events, browe our Past Events, or take a look at our Library.
The MIT PSG office is in Walker Memorial in room 50-318.
We are now on Facebook and Twitter.
