Do you know the holidays/dates? If so, I will gladly add them. 3nodding
I do have an astrology page, as well. Though, it's far from complete.
I had someone that was helping with the various cultures including wiccan but has been unable to do so for some time.

Yes. I know and thank you. Your desire to be staff is highly commendable. It wasn't a crew member that was helping me. It was my daughter (whom is also wiccan) but her health hasn't been the greatest for some time and a couple other non-staff members.
