On April 29, 2004 The Bismarck Tribune reported, "Selena Fox is one of the leaders of Circle Sanctuary, 200 acres in southwestern Wisconsin, which is both a nature preserve and a nature spirituality center. This weekend the center, near Mount Horeb, Wis., will celebrate Beltane, one of eight festivals marking 'the wheel of the year' by a variety of nature-based religions. Circle Sanctuary, in its 20th year, is multicultural and multi-religious -- those within the community may be Pagans ("with a capital P," Fox said) to Wicca practitioners, many of whom also profess Buddhism, Taoism, Judaism or other faiths, she said... Circle Sanctuary is known throughout the U.S. as a clearinghouse for information on nature spirituality in general, including Wicca and Druidism, contemporary Paganism and ecospirituality, Fox said. Part of the growth in interest in earth-centered spirituality is a hunger for spirituality that's environmentally responsible, tapping deep archetypal patterns that date back to our ancestors, she said."
