Paganism is one of the fastest-growing belief systems in the world, and titles on the topic are literally flying off the shelves. But these guides, written by European and North American authors, are for northern hemisphere readers; in the southern hemisphere the seasons which form the basis of Pagan practice - are the other way around. In this title it explains Pagan practice in the context of Southern Africa and the southern hemisphere. She addresses issues that are of interest to Pagans and non-Pagans alike: definitions of Paganism and Wicca; the historical origins of Paganism; the link between Paganism and traditional African beliefs; and the opposition between Paganism and Satanism. There are also interviews with practicing Pagans, who outline their beliefs and practices, and respond to the myths that have led to discrimination against them.
