About RadFae.Org
Who are these faeries and what's their web site for?

The RadFae.org website exists to pull together Radical Faerie information: links to resources and web pages, news, information, and pointers to other faerie lists. Our site is also available to host various faerie projects. RadFae.org is managed by the radfae websters, and we're open for new members and volunteers.

Who are we?

At the Beltane '98 Wolf Creek gathering, a number of us got together to share ideas about creating a radical faerie web site, RadFae.org. There are faerie pages all over, and we hope to create a central place where they can be listed. Also, we offer space for faerie-related projects, so they don't have to each go out and pay for a domain name and a web server of their own.

Currently, the radfae websters has two active participants, and a mailing list of 17. We work by consensus. If you're part of the extended faerie community (wimmin included), you can join the email list. Just send an email to websters@radfae.org

We're not official -- nobody is

Nobody speaks for Radical Faeries as a whole; certainly not us! We're keeping our process as open as possible, so this site can reflect the community as a whole. But our main goal is to provide a neutral clearing-house, which can point to (or host) faerie sites with a variety of perspectives.

Put your stuff here

 Space is available for more faerie-related projects. You, too, could be www.radfae.org/somebody. Got your own pages already? We can put a link from here.

Help!

 A handful of us put this site together, and none of us has much time available. So there's lots of room for you to get involved, and to make this Web site look like you think it should.

We especially hope to find volunteers to take on:

News:
RFD comes out quarterly; email lists only go out to their subscribers. Our News section can be another way to get announcements and other dish out to the faerie community. Be a reporter, gossip columnist, or anything in between!
Artists:
We envision a small-but-pretty banner at the top of the home page, rotating among different faerie artists.

Who are the faeries?

 We're decentralized, and nobody's in charge -- so every faerie who you ask will give a slightly different definition of "Radical Faerie." Generally, we tend to be Gay men who look for a spiritual dimension to our sexuality; many of us are healers of one kind or another. Our shared values include feminism, respect for the Earth, and individual responsiblity rather than hierarchy. Many of us are Pagan (nature-based religion).

Our defining events are Faerie Gatherings, where we'll get together for an extended retreat, usually in the woods, separated from the outside world. A lot of that time is spent in "heart circles," where we open up emotionally.

Of course, that's just our circle's attempt at a definition.
