The God Year: Festival Days of the Sacred Male

A companion volume to "The Goddess Year," dealing with the cycle of the year through the medium of its sacred associations with divinity, in this case the gods of Northern European, Roman, Greek and Egyptian tradition. In contemporary Pagan practice, the traditional year relates spiritual qualities to their corresponding times and each of these times is commemorated by a festival or observance. Each festivity is ruled over by an appropriate corresponding goddess and/or god. The rich symbolic system of the Pagan gods has continued in its entirety up to the present day. Lavishly illustrated.
