Welcome to Facing North!

Welcome to one of the largest collections of reviews of neopagan/Spiritual/New Age oriented books, music, and other items of interest to our community. My wonderful team of reviewers and I have been writing reviews for many years now, and we love it.

Opened on October 31, 2006 with just over 200 reviews, Facing North is -- first and foremost -- a community resource. We ended that year with more than double our opening number of reviews (500+). Although we slowed our growth, 2007 ended with our database at more than 600 records, 2008 saw us at 900 and we edged over 1,000 by the end of 2009. We accept previously published reviews, and articles and reviews from alternative practitioners. It is my goal to make Facing North the largest repository of alternative spirituality reviews on the Internet.

We are committed to creating a practical site with honest opinions that are fair, even when critical. I welcome your feedback and suggestions to improve this site, one that everyone in our diverse community can use. Just email me at: lisa_at_facingnorth_dot_net (with appropriate edits).

Once again: Welcome to Facing North!

Greetings from the changing of the year!

This morning as I was walking my dogs I watched shreds of cloud cross a waxing moon I reflected on the change of seasons and the passing of time.

Facing North is twelve years old this month and has evolved into something quite different from what I'd envisioned all those years ago. My original vision was to create a platform to nurture pagan artists and writers with their creations, writing about their shows, their books, and providing a place for the community to get honest reviews. Among other things, I planned for monthly interviews and promotions.

We're quieter than that nowadays, but reliable and steady. Still 100% free of advertising, Facing North has evolved into a place where you can find those honest reviews. But as our birthday passes it seems a good time to ask you, my readers and visitors, what do you wish we offered here at Facing North?

For now, this month we offer:
