Naturalistic Paganism
Of course, all religions started out DIY, so never feel that you shouldn’t build on your own spirituality! Is this a transition time for you? All that more, on the page here.
And I of course don’t know about you, but for me, every minute can be a tight squeeze in my busy life. I used to have a 30 minute commute, which adds up to 5 hours of listening time every week. But now, with my new job, it’s only a 9 minute commute, 3 times a week (due to Covid work from home), for less than 1 hour per week. So it’s really cool to discover that now, transcripts are on The Wonder podcast page! Audio is of course better – conveying a wider range of our human emotions – but if you are having trouble finding the time, consider the transcripts!
THE WONDER explores perspectives, rituals, and observances of modern, naturalistic, Earth-revering Neopagan religious paths. Naturalistic Pagans embrace the world as understood by science (that is, without gods, magic, or the supernatural), and enhance our lives with myth, ritual and activism. THE WONDER is named, of course, for the awe and reverence we feel as we contemplate the magnificent Universe—is that it will be an ongoing resource for non-theist Pagans to inform and inspire our practices and stimulate our thinking.
The authors are Mark Green (see bio below) and Ecologist, Atheopaganism Facebook group member, and YouTuber (The Pagan Perspective, Magic and Mundane, and the podcast Nature Guided Meditations), Yucca (bio also below).
THE WONDER is available through iTunes and Google Play, Spotify, Google Podcasts, Stitcher…all the usual platforms for finding podcasts. The first few episodes feature Arwen and myself discussing topical questions, but we will expand to interviews, music and book reviews. We will announce events, promote the Atheopagan community’s annual chosen charity, and present other material of interest to non-theist Pagans.
All episodes are at https://thewonderpodcast.podbean.com/, or download it through your favorite podcast access app.

Wish you could publish transcripts. Podcasts suck for deaf people.
They do publish a transcript!! It’s on the page. Here is the latest one. I love these transcripts because I’m busy and can read faster than I can listen. : ) https://thewonderpodcast.podbean.com/e/interview-sarah-the-skeptical-witch-on-naturalistic-witchcraft-and-religion/#more-18511189
