WE ARE NOT GOING TO FADE!!! I just had to say that as I have to make an announcement. I am going to take a hiatus for at least a month (as well as the unknown hiatus for the last little bit). Due to health concerns, the end of the school year, and my upcoming trip to Ireland I am going to have to take it easy. A little... update. While I am not "sick" the arthritis pain is quite concentrated in my wrists (left mostly) and entire ribcage. It is all I can do to actually get up in the morning and go to work. It is with GREAT sadness that I am going to have to take a slightly extended break from the show. However, that being said, WE WILL BE BACK!!!! Let there be no mistake. It's all about the Love and I Love all of you. Sparrow Category:pagan podcast

- Sparrow -
Notice this note to Sparrow is first... ;)
I'm glad to hear your hiatus won't be as long as expected. I hope the best part of that annoucement means that your health is better!!!
Mojo -
Looking forward to another podcast from both of you. I've finally caught up and listened to all of your old podcasts that I missed before I was aware of Pagan podcasts. Thanks to you for your delightful, informative, funny episodes that I truly treasure.
Here's to the love!

Celestial Fyre - Sparrow and Mojo,
Hi from Afghanistan.
Sparrow I hope your trip to Ireland is outstanding. I have visited twice and loved every minute of it. I am sure it will revive, inspire, and recharge your batteries.
Since I read Mojo's question I have thought a lot about it... and I feel that often times when we are faced with an obstacle it gives us a chance to find new ways to accomplish things.
I don't think you should hold off on doing more podcast Mojo, especially if you feel like it could be a bad thing. Maybe this is a chance for you to explore and overcome some boundaries and inhibitions about being solo, or it could be a chance to grow the podcast.
Maybe bring in some guest co-host. I am sure there are others in your life that would be glad to sit opposite you and add their point of view to the Wigglian Way.
Sparrow, although you will be absent from the show, you will not be absent from the minds and hearts of the Wigglian Nation. All of us will be thinking of you and sending you all the warm and positive thoughts we can. I hope you don’t mind.
Bright Blessings!

- Have no fear Mr. Halbot, The Wigglian Way will go on, in fact, there will be a show out later this week featuring an interview that I did with author, Judy Harrow.
To everyone, it looks like Sparrow's hiatus isn't going to be as long as we thought that it was gonna be! You can look forward to hearing from Sparrow in August, when she returns from Ireland! - Hi Mojo and Sparrow. I was looking forward to your next podcast but as I see It will be postponed. I hope Sparrow gets well and look forward to when you guys return. I am not a follower but enjoy listening to you guys; Mojo always made me laugh and yell. Take care.
Robert Halbot - Hi, Sparrow and Mojo!
This is the first comment I've made to your website as I'm a newbie to The Wigglian Way. I'm still trying to catch up on old podcasts...and lovin' every minute of it. I'm so glad I found your listing on iTunes.
Sparrow - I'm so sorry to hear that your health conditions limits you in life activities that you enjoy. I'm sure you are working with healing/pain mgmt in what ever way works for you. You are certainly doing the right thing in gently pulling back on some activities to make your quality of life better. ESPECIALLY with a trip to Ireland coming up!!! Enjoy that trip! And...Blessings to you for continued healing!
Mojo - You know all of your Wigglian fans will want you to keep podcasting. But I truly think that only YOU know if podcasting by yourself is doable. True Wigglian fans will understand and support your decision.
Blessed Be!
Celestial Fyre - Wow, Sparrow, it sounds as though you've got quite a full plate these days! It's true, though; sometimes our lives become so busy that we find ourselves needing to take a step back from it all and say, "Woah! OK, hold on a sec, I need to sort this out!" I do hope that things settle down for you soon. I especially hope that your arthritis pain alleviates so that you can feel more normal in your everyday life... and also so that you can fully enjoy your upcoming trip! How exciting!
Personally, as an admitted Wiggliaddict, I would love to see new shows come out while Sparrow is taking a break. Sure, it won't be quite the same show without her, but I'd love to see Mojo carry the torch. It's certainly true that she'll be sorely missed during her time away, though. :(
Just my opinion, of course; it's not as though you OWE us anything. You guys have built a true pagan podcast phenomenon over the past few years, and that such a huge accomplishment. Your show has been so consistently awesome, and your dedication to your listeners is always apparent. Maybe a break for the both of you is due; if anything, you deserve it.
My biggest worry, however, is that a "break" will eventually turn into the end of the show altogether, as has happened with other favorite pagan podcasts. And in all truth, that's OK; sometimes a thing's time comes to an end. But I sure would mourn plentifully if that were to happen.
So in short, if Mojo has it in him to continue, I think a lot of us would love that. But whatever you decide, I will respect your wishes. Wasn't that wonderfully vague and conflicting?
Wishing you both happiness, healthfulness and fulfillment! Hope you had a great Litha!
Blessed be,
Raithaa - Hi Mojo, I think you should continue the show. I for one will miss Sparrow very much. However, I really, really enjoy listening to the show.
Sparrow, I hope you feel better soon. I will miss hearing your voice and how you keep Mojo "in line". Have fun in Ireland and be careful.
Brightest Blessings,
William (Bill) Dragonwolfe
P.S. You do have my permission to say my name.
