About this book

This is a copy of the script written for a Memorial Day and Warrior's Honor Ceremony performed at the Heartland Pagan Festival in 1992. It was written during the festival by She-Wolf and Gary Stanfield, and is the latest of a few editions. This ceremony was intended for participation by any persons who can accept the Wiccan ceremonial format and who have been or are likely to become touched deeply by war. Realistic acceptance, loving reconciliation, and emotional catharsis are the major themes. Fears, regrets, sympathies, feelings of caring, and grievings are dealt with intensely. Adventure, patriotism, the joy of battle, etc. are ignored. The setting is outdoors in mid-morning light in a clearing among trees. There is a fire in the center of the temple space and an altar at the northernmost point of the circle.
