[maenad nuri]

Hi! I'm nuri. I've been a Hellenic Pagan for about 4 or 5 years now, and have studied mythology for even longer. I have been pagan of some stripe for about 9 years, in various stages of fluff and non-fluff. I hold a degree in English Studies, and I work in Special Education.

I'm known as "the nice one" abouts these parts, which truely scares me.

When I mentor, I tend to go for the "here's some resources, here's a couple of questions" and I expect you to answer them. You can take your time, but I expect you to fufill them. I don't expect perfection, and I love a questioning attitude.

I will also let you know when I don't know something. I'll help you research. My topic will be used as a Q&A. Anything you don't want public can be PM'ed.  

[Pelta]

Hi! I'm Pelta, currently a double-major English and Music student at Trinity College Dublin. I've studied various approaches to Paganism for at least seven years, and can answer questions you may have about stones, music or shamanism.

I encourage people to ask questions and I adopt the approach that there are very few stupid questions you can ask when you really want to learn.

I'm here to help if there's anything you need guidance in, and I look forward to assisting mentees along the way.

Good luck in your studies!

Prospective people can PM me if you don't want to post stuff up here.  

[bristowjen]

Let's see. First my name is Jen (bristowjen) and I have been pagan for around 10 years or so, but public since around 2000-2001. I am eclectic although I've studied to 2nd degree in the Georgian Trad.

I am an elder in my local open (teaching) circle and have performed 4 handfastings since obtaining my credentials.

I have studied bits of everything and believe NO religion should be derrided.

PM me if you have special questions and good luck on your search!

[TeaDidikai]

‘Ello folks,

I’m Tea. (Are we sensing a pattern yet?) I was raised in a “double faith” household and been interested in theology for as long as I can recall. I’ve been studying tea for a few years now and been enjoying it for all of my adult life.

My thread will be a three-stage course in Tea History and Culture, Secular Application and Spiritual Application.

I expect participants to answer questions posted and provide their own “study materials”- which will include items from the course list below.

My PMs are set to Friends Only, however- if you are interested, ask to be added to my friends list and I’ll respond in a timely manner and we’ll go from there.  

[Ulfrikr inn Hrafn]

Heilsan Allir,

My name is Dirk, known here at Gaia, and other locations, as Ulfrikr inn Hrafn. I joined Gaia in January of 2004, so am coming up to my 4th anniversary of being on Gaia. I am providing mentoring in the area of the Germanic Folkways, typically referred to as Odinism, Asatru, Irminenschaft, etc. I will be placing a strong emphasis on study and learning of the cultural background of the Germanic peoples.

The best format is for potential students to ask questions, to which I shall either answer directly from my understanding, or refer you to a textual source which either myself or someone else has written on the subject matter. Where I cannot provide an answer I'll do some research and get back to you, or find someone whom can provide further information.

Ver thu heil
