Let's face it: it's difficult to be a Pagan. Not only is Wicca a minority faith, but it's rooted in the Earth, and most people today live in cities where soil, wild plants and animals are often in short supply. How can you honor the land when it's limited to flower pots, tiny backyards and parks that are a half-hour away? You'll find the answers in our unique daily guide to Pagan living, Llewellyn's 2007 Wicca Almanac. Running from Spring Equinox 2007-Spring Equinox 2008, its calendar/almanac section has all the information you need so you can perform magic on any day. It includes the lunar phase and moon sign as well as the color and planetary correspondences. Instructions for how to use this information in your magic are included too. But that's not all! You also need to know the exact dates for Pagan holidays, and they're clearly listed so you can plan ahead to celebrate the wheel of the year. All of this information should be enough for any Wiccan almanac, but it's not enough for Llewellyn. We wanted you to have more - lots more! And this year we offer more than ever before.

Many hundreds of years ago, when Paganism was the spiritual system of the people, they would get together for holidays and celebrations where they would share ideas and experiences with each other. It was part of Pagan life. Today, when many Wiccans are solitaries or only share their beliefs with a few trusted friends, such collective activities are rather rare. This almanac can stand in for much of that experience. It quite literally completes the experience of Wicca for many thousands of people. Bring back that sharing experience! Let these experts share their ideas with you. Wicca is not a faith with practices, beliefs and ideas locked in stone. It grows and evolves just as you grow and evolve. This almanac will not only give you information for timing your celebrations and magic, but it will complete your Wiccan walk for the year, triggering new ideas and direction in your heart, soul and spirit.
