Call for Papers: Virtual Symposium of Pagan Thought and Practice
The Notion of Balance
July 25, 2026
Via Zoom
On July 25, 2026, come join the Virtual Symposium of Pagan Thought and Practice to discuss The Notion of Balance. During this one day event, we seek to inspire a broad and inclusive discussion on how balance is understood, experienced, and expressed within Pagan traditions, practices, and philosophies.
What does balance mean in a Pagan context?
Is it the equilibrium of light and dark, masculine and feminine, or the interplay of the elements? Does it manifest in the cycles of nature, the turning of the Wheel of the Year, or the balancing act between tradition and innovation? How do we navigate personal, spiritual, or communal balance in a world of profound change and instability? What is the role of balance in ritual practice and magical workings.
The Virtual Conference of Pagan Thought & Practice
The Virtual Conference of Pagan Thought and Practice focuses on where ideas, belief, and practice meet, articulating academic and philosophical ideas into Contemporary Pagan spiritual and religious practices, and conversely examining how these practices align with and make evident Contemporary Pagan beliefs, ideas, and philosophies. This conference’s target audience includes academics and practitioners of Contemporary Pagan spiritualities and religions, and encompasses the widest range of spiritual and religious expressions.
