"January and February are the worst months for Pagan elders. The weather is cold, there are few (if any) festivals to pay them for teaching, authors' royalty checks from the Yule shopping season don't arrive until March or April, any food gifts from relatives have run out, and everybody in the culture at large is broke (or feels that way) . What does or should this mean to non-elderly Pagans? It means that now is the time to check on your local Pagan elders to see how they are doing. Is their rent or mortgage paid, or is their landlord/the bank trying to evict them? Is there heat in their home? Is there food in their pantry? Is their walk shoveled? Is there gas in their car or does it need work to make it safe and legal? Is their internet connection up and running? Is anyone visiting them or taking them to local events? Has anyone bothered lately to interview them and record their words of wisdom for future generations of Pagans? Or are they simply ignored until someone wants something from them?"
