If you were drawn to the title of this blog, it is likely you are a Water Magician. That is, someone who goes to water – physically and spiritually – to tap into the Divine and find empowerment, inspiration, cleansing and release. I’m Jenna Greene, a new guest blogger on Pagan Song. I’m here to share …

I first experienced the Crow Women in concert at a Dragonfest in Colorado around 2005 or thereabouts. I must have been coming from a workshop, because I arrived near the end, just in time to catch the encore. If you’ve been to a Crow Women concert, you recognize the spectacle. An array of lovely ladies, …
The Goddess is Alive, and Magic is Afoot! This is more than a bumper sticker; this is the foundation of our spiritual practice. This concept was never more clear to me than a few years ago, when the Crow Goddess gave me a song, and made darn sure that I learned and taught it! It’s …

To become an elder Crow, one must have spent at least a year dedicated to each element: earth, air, fire, water, and spirit. Because we have each designed many, many rituals centered on an element, we have also written several pagan …
Crow Magic was my first foray into recording with the Crow Women. Imagine my elation when our most prolific and arguably most talented songwriter Alane Crowomyn asked me to sing a lead on one of her songs. If only because of that, Farewell, My Familiar holds a special place in my heart. But it isn’t the …
I was born under the Cancer sun sign, and have always felt a strong connection with the moon. I wrote the song “Goddess Moon” for a lovely outdoor ritual in a Crow sister’s back yard. We planned to use it to sing up the full moon! Goddess Moon, when are you coming?Goddess Moon, where do …
I’ve always been leery about religious or spiritual types who are unwilling to occasionally poke fun at their own beliefs and practices.
