There's been a flare-up of transphobia lately in some Pagan circles, I want to affirm that my own hearth practice of Paganism/polytheism and that of my grove, Northern Roots Grove, is fully accepting of the range of human gender & sexual diversity. The roles people take on in our rituals are not gender specific unless a member wants a gender specific role, and creates a ritual with that in mind. In keeping with modern hospitality we are quite happy to call you by whatever name & pronouns that you introduce yourself with, or let us know if they change at some point. 

What body parts are under your robe, kilt, or earasaid  isn't any of our concern! We have thus far had a croning ritual for a cis woman member who wanted one, and plan on having another, but neither of these are based on when or whether the woman has reached a particular biological marker, such as menopause. It was just when they feel it is the right time for that ritual.  Life passage rites are created by or for the individual who wants them and so whether they are gender specific or related to physical or spiritual states of being is up to the person. We do not have any particular requirements for such rituals, we consider them successful if they help support the person and/or their loved ones in going through a life transition. 

While I'm at it I'll also re-affirm that we have no requirements as to ancestral, ethnic, cultural, racial or religious backgrounds and heritage. Sincere spiritual interest, attendance  & participation in our events and ethical behavior (we have these listed in our membership agreement) is all we require. We also are very happy to accommodate folks with different abilities, health conditions and needs and families with children as much as possible, especially if you let us know ahead of time what is needed to make it easier for you to attend our rituals. Likewise, people who perpetuate support abuse, harassment, bigotry, hate and fascism in any form are excluded, and I and others in my grove will also warn other people in our communit(ies) about such abusers and bigots. 

Lunasa & Lammas Blessings to all!
