Komos: Celebrating Festivals in Contemporary Hellenic Polytheism by Sarah Kate Istra Winter
5.0
This is such a great book! :) This is a fantastic book for beginners in Hellenic Polytheism who are not sure how to insert Festivals in modern practices. The author not only gives information on historical practices, cites the sources and gives further readings but also there are stories and descriptions on how they and their group work and do their own celebrations, which is fantastic.
The festivals and celebrations are explained both in a rural, town and urban setting, with several tps and alternatives that can be used. There's even a Troubleshooting section at the end with several things that might stop a festival from happening and with info on what to do and how to solve most of them. I really enjoyed this book and it had a very positive impact on my path, can't wait to start adapting festivals into my own practice.
