Pagan author Raven Grimassi has passed to the Summerland. Memorial details are included in the link. In lieu of flowers, a donation in Raven’s name can be made to the Temple of Witchcraft . He wrote many books . Among my favorites are Beltane: Springtime Rituals, Lore, and Celebration and Ways of the Strega: Italian Witchcraft In Lore, Magick and Spells . I also like The Hidden Path Oracle and The Well Worn Path Divination Kit . I knew Raven through my work at PanGaia magazine. We met at events, including the Pagan Picnic in St. Louis. See a picture of us there . I found him to be thoughtful, insightful, capable, and gracious. He will be missed.
