Many of us older folks were Changeling children, born into families that
had no idea what to make of weird kids like us. Cuckoos hatching
in a nest of robins. We identified much more with the Addams
Family than with the Brady Bunch. Some families handled the
challenge well, with love and patience. But far too many blew it
badly, often including serious abuse.
This is a handbook for parents who find themselves with an
"ugly duckling" child who just doesn't seem to fit in. "Old Souls"
reincarnating with uncanny abilities, insights and attitudes,
memories of former lives, nightmares of previous deaths... Oberon
Zell and other members of the Grey Council wrote the "Grimoire
for the Apprentice Wizard" specifically with the intention that it
would be gifted to us on the 11th birthday of our next incarnation.
And much later, Oberon and Kirsten Johnsen created the "Song of
Gaea" as a child's bedtime story to be read to us next time around.
For all the millions of modern Pagans alive today, eventually it
will come our time to leave this life to begin a new one. As the
fastest-growing religion in the Western world, we will comprise
entire generations to come-on Earth and on other worlds. What
advice and counsel do we want to tell our future parents to guide
them in raising us? What do we wish we could have said to our
parents in this life?
