Into The Light: Pagans Observe Passing Of Winter, Impending Spring
Author: Lindsay Melvin Source: Memphis Commercial Appeal (TN)
Title: INTO THE LIGHT: PAGANS OBSERVE PASSING OF WINTER, IMPENDING SPRING
They were led, blindfolded and in ritual robes and sneakers, through the darkness.
When their eyes were uncovered they stood in a room lit by a single candle at the center.
Kindling smaller candles from that flame, each candle was passed around until the group formed a blazing circle of light.
"Go in peace and carry this light with you throughout the year," came the voice of the minister, whose silk shawl wrapped a fire-breathing dragon from one massive shoulder to the other.
Using the symbols of darkness and light, area Pagans ushered in the spring festival Imbolc this weekend.

Make sure to read the whole thing.
The comments on the page below it are interesting - especially one that's dismissive of Pagans, and how everyone reacts to that post.
