"We wait for the moon. We watch for the moon. We watch for the Ramadan moon. We give to the poor, and read Qur'an, under the moon. We live our faith, until next year under the moon, under the moon, under the Ramadan moon." Ramadan is one of the most special months of the Islamic year, when Muslims pray, fast, and help those in need. The lyrical story, with luminous illustrations, serves as an introduction to Ramadan—a time for reflection and ritual with family and friends. A detailed note about Ramadan is included.

In present-day Pakistan, in the far corners of Lyari in Karachi, or Hingol in Balochistan, or Thatta in Sindh, tightly knit groups of women keep alive the folklore, songs and legends of Sati—their name for Sita in the Ramayana. The way they sustain the attendant rituals and practices in a nation state with a fixed idea of what constitutes citizenship and who gets to be a primary citizen is at the heart of this book. In Sita under the Crescent Moon, author Annie Ali Khan travels with women devotees—those without resources, subject to intense violence—who, through the bravest and simplest act, that of a pilgrimage, retrace what they remember of the goddess. Who are these pilgrims? How did this relationship with Sati start, and why is she so significant? How do their oral mytho-histories compare to colonial narratives or mainstream definitions of Sati? Even while retelling the stories of these pilgrims, Sita under the Crescent Moon studies how worship has altered the mores of a land—and how the sacral site, made up of clay and thread and tumble weed, grants a woman power to fight against her circumstances.

The forty articles contained in this Anthology, originally appeared in issues of Atlantis Rising magazine from 2001 until 2019. The articles in this two-volume anthology are arranged by category, or topic, and not chronologically as they first appeared in Atlantis Rising over two decades. This two-volume Anthology contains a collection of articles on astrology, astronomy, and mythology that were published in Atlantis Rising magazine, spanning two decades of contributions. For many years, Julie Loar's column in Atlantis Rising was the clearest, most reliable, and most readable source of ancient sky lore to be found in print or on the web. Her thoughtful presentation of historical and mythical detail, informed by extensive in-depth personal research into classic astrology, made her an authority not only to the astrologically minded, but to anyone interested in the forgotten riches of our ancient, and little understood, past.
