ABOUT ZANONI SILVERKNIFE
Zanoni Silverknife is the first
Georgian Priestess. In late
December 1971, she along with her best friend
Tanith, joined with
George Patterson to start the "Georgian"
Tradition. It is a tradition that seems to have many tributaries today, but also has maintained at least three
Traditionalist branches. For the Silverknife
Line, Zanoni has created a solid structure for training proper persons in the three degree system and has maintained the true core of the Georgian Tradition for posterity. She has also created a
Core Book of Shadows from several Georgian Initiates
Books in order to capture as much of
Patterson's
Book as possible, his being lost to
Georgians after his death.
Zanoni is
Elder in several other Wiccan (
Gardnerian, NECTW, 1734) and
Pagan traditions such as NRDNA and enjoys the variety and uniqueness from such a mélange. She is always moving, growing, learning and refining herself and her life. Along with continuing to teach in both
Craft and
Nordic ways, she manages a budding art career and writes many stories for her grandchildren. She is also working on several books, some for publication, some that will only be dispersed to
Traditional Georgian Elders or StarBornSothis Initiates.
She is a charter member of
COG (
Covenant of the Goddess,) and has helped to facilitate many public circles, and worked diligently in any number of organizations for pagans, such as
ERCA (
Earth Religions Cultural
Association.) In her travels, Zanoni has brought the Craft to many people across the
United States. She continues to be a vital force for the Craft and her beloved
Gods and Goddesses.
