Ceisiwr Serith (David Fickett-Wilbar) is a writer and teacher in the Pagan community.  His interest in prayers and rituals grew naturally as a result of working in the Wiccan and Druidic traditions, as well as writing books such as A Book of Pagan Prayer and Deep Ancestors:  Practicing the Religion of the Proto-Indo-Europeans.  He is a member of Ár nDraíocht Féin, a Druid fellowship, and is priest and liturgist for Nemos Ognios grove in Durham NH.  He has been published in the Journal of Indo-European Studies and Proceedings of the Harvard Celtic Colloquium.

A complete guide to the practice of prayer and ritual for Pagans of all traditions.

Here is an extraordinarily comprehensive collection of payers and rituals for contemporary Pagans from a variety of traditions to turn to again and again. The Big Book of Pagan Prayer and Ritual includes the following:
