"Hello all! I'm new here. I've studied Wicca for 10 years, but I've never had a chance to study the Strega traditions. I'm kind of curious to see what it's all about."

Arsenic & Old Lace - Vinnie posted a discussionEmbracing the Ancient (Cantamaggio '13) - May Day celebrations in Italy
Happy Beltaine! Blessed May! One of the things that folks tend to forget is that Italy is part of Europe, southern Europe but still Europe. That means that the standard 8 Sabbats that form the wheel of the year marking the changing and heights of seasons, also have their equivalent in Italy. I found this fantastic post by the Society of Diana about MayDay celebrations in Italy. I'll provide the link to the original article but I also wanted to repost it here for those of you who don't…See More

- About Me
- My name is Vinnie Russo and I've been a Stregone/Witch and Wiccan priest since 1987 or there about :-) and have had a number of amazing students. I have been honored to participate in a local and international interfaith venues including the 1993 Council for a Parliament of World Religions where the Dalai Lama was the guest of honor. My family is originally from Italy and Sicily. That may be why I love to visit there.
I own Arsenic & Old Lace which is one of the best known and oldest occult stores in New England where folks can get reliable and honest information and advice. We offer quality supplies for the serious practitioner. We were a brick-and-mortar store but have gone "exclusively internet & festival based". In addition to quality supplies, we also offer professional Tarot Consultation via phone and/or email.
I am the High Priest/Mago of the Sheaves of Demeter, a syncretic coven that draws from both The Strega Tradition (Sicilian Craft) and Chthonioi-Alexandrian Wicca.
