Our contemporary Pagan path is a blend of the old and the new. To bridge ancient traditions with a busy, modern lifestyle, one also needs a healthy sense of humor and an open mind. One whimsical example of this is the attention gained by an emerging new goddess: Caffeina. Although Caffeina doesn't reside in history books or in our ancient memories or archetypes, she is with us every day as the prolific consumption of coffee is an integral part of western society. Drinking coffee in its many flavors and manifestations is now woven into the social fabric of our lives.

Caffeina teaches us that moderation is the key to enjoying her gift of coffee. Imagine Caffeina as a beautiful woman rising with the steam of your cup. Enjoy a cup of coffee either alone or with friends and visualize the creativity and energy that Caffeina brings as you drink her nectar.
