Who I am: My name is
Karen and I'm the owner of Raven's Calling.
Although I was raised
Catholic, I've been an "out of the closet" pagan for about seven
years. Fascinated with cultures, I completed an undergraduate degree
in social and cultural anthropology, with a focus in religion and
military. It is through both my studies and my own personal dealings
with religion that the concept of Raven's Calling came about.
The vision: Raven's
Calling started as an idea to promote communication between
religions. I have found that a large majority of problems globally
stem from poor communication, understanding and personal bias. I had
thought a store where different religions could discuss and learn
while obtaining the materials needed or wanted. It's an ideal,
however, that cannot be achieved without community and over the
passage of time.
The name: Ravens have
been present in many religions throughout history, especially in
Northern climates. Christian, Celtic, Norse and some Native North
American cultures all have the Raven as a protector and wise-man
role. The name was chosen in an effort to lend an air of support to
those that have the courage to follow their own paths. All people
are called onto an individual path and it is my hope that the
calling is towards tolerance. And of course a satisfaction with the
products purchased here.
