Hi Tom and all;
I am curious to know whether Feri is breaking into
different branches. (or perhaps it is Reclaiming breaking into different
branches!). While Reclaiming has always had a strong Anderson influence,
there now appears to be a Reclaiming Feri offshoot. Do you see yourself,
Tom, as part of this line (Thorn, Oak, Dawn et al) or a different
line, and if so what would that lineage be?
Thanks
Shya Young

As I am a Feri initiate as well, this topic was discussed
among a list consisting of initiates, and one of the two people responsible
for its adoption into Feri liturgy admitted that it was taken from Crowther's
published work and then slightly rewritten. Prior to this, a prominent member
of a CVW tradition had claimed that he had shared it with Gabriel Carillo (aka
Caradoc ap Cador) and it was from CVW that Feri adopted it. I'm more apt to
believe the former as a reliable source. Regardless of source, however, the
Dryghton prayer doesn't come into Feri until 1975 at the absolute earliest, in
the form Pitch quoted it.
