Pagan Homeland Collaboration Wayfinder
External Relations 🤝
The relationship table: partner leads, outreach lanes, network notes, and careful collaboration records.
Use this page to document outside relationships clearly, route follow-up, and keep exploratory conversations separate from formal commitments. Relationship work matters. It also needs clean records, honest labels, and the right authority lane.
External Relations Routes
Use these when you need to submit a partner lead, find a relationship record, open the response sheet, or check current network reference routes.
Core External Relations Files
These records help PHC track partner leads, relationship status, safety expectations, contact records, and public reference routes.

Submit possible partner, outreach, network, group, project, organizer, resource-sharing, or relationship leads for PHC review.

This question belongs here because external relationships can easily blur into identity, endorsement, or perceived authority.
Network Lens
Pagan Homeland may function as a shared concept, support pattern, or resource lane that helps many independent Pagan land, community, and infrastructure efforts remain sovereign.
- peer learning
- resource sharing
- governance templates
- land and stewardship tools
- mutual support without ownership
- clear local autonomy
Brand Lens
Pagan Homeland may someday need clearer standards, membership rules, name-use rules, shared public language, or formal participation requirements.
That is not settled here.
Until the Board adopts a formal structure, keep language careful: relationship, reference, conversation, support, or exploratory lane. Not formal network authority.
Working rule: keep Pagan Homeland, PHC, Deeply Rooted, SHEAVES, PUN, partner organizations, members, supporters, and guests distinct unless the record clearly shows otherwise.
Relationship Stage Reminder
A relationship record should tell the truth about where things actually stand.
Recommended Stages
- Lead
- Active Conversation
- Intake Needed
- Onboarding in Progress
- Partner-Share Draft
- Board Review Needed
- Approved Partner File
- Stub / Internal Reference Only
- Public Reference Route Only
- Exploratory / Not Formally Adopted
- Paused
- Closed
Short Reminder
A lead is not a partner.
A conversation is not approval.
A shared value is not formal alignment.
A draft MOU is not an adopted agreement.
A stub record is not Board action.
A public link is not program adoption.
A volunteer exchange is not an institutional merger.
Minimum Bar for PHC Support
PHC can help aligned groups build stronger records and systems. It should not carry relationships that have no steward, no structure, or no willingness to document.
Before Support Gets Serious
- named contacts
- a real founding team or active steward group
- a board, steering group, or dated legalization plan
- willingness to keep records
- willingness to name decisions and authority
- willingness to use a values / safety MOU where appropriate
- clear distinction between informal help and formal partnership
Slow Down When
- nobody can name who is responsible
- the group avoids records
- the group wants legitimacy without accountability
- the group asks PHC to bypass Deeply Rooted governance
- money handling is unclear
- safety concerns are unresolved
- consent, sovereignty, or community frith are treated as optional
Partner Support Boundaries
PHC can help prepare useful tools. It should not become someone else's shortcut around responsibility.
PHC May Help With
- governance kits
- board templates
- bylaws support
- land-use agreements
- due diligence support
- planning tools
- safety and accessibility standards
- sustainability framing
- documentation habits
PHC Should Not Support
- groups with no real steward
- groups unwilling to document decisions
- groups asking PHC to bypass Deeply Rooted governance
- groups seeking money handling outside proper controls
- groups with unresolved safety concerns
- groups that cannot respect consent, sovereignty, or community frith
SHEAVES + Network Notes
Network work is useful when distinctions stay clear.
Describe SHEAVES Work As
- relationship-building
- resource sharing
- volunteer support
- mutual learning
- network development
- stub / relationship reference only until fuller approved records exist
- public portal reference route
SHEAVES is a collaborative network, not a governing body. Use formal Deeply Rooted action language only when the Board has actually approved the action or commitment.
Keep Distinctions Clear
- Deeply Rooted
- PHC
- SHEAVES
- Pagan Underground Network
- partner organizations
- informal contacts
- members, supporters, and guests
Pagan Underground Network is exploratory / not formally adopted unless reviewed and approved through the proper lane. The public PUN site link is a reference route only, not PHC program approval.
External Relations Safety Note
Relationship records may contain private contacts, unresolved questions, or sensitive context. Keep the right record in the right lane.
Before Sharing or Acting
- check the relationship stage
- check whether the record is stub, draft, active, approved, paused, or closed
- check whether there is Board action or only conversation
- check whether contacts or safety details are restricted
- check whether public wording implies more than the record supports
- check whether PHC, Deeply Rooted, SHEAVES, PUN, and partner identities are being kept distinct
- check Build + Assets before replacing page code or visual materials
Restricted Relationship Note
Partner, contact, SHEAVES, PUN, outreach, safety, external reference, or negotiation records may contain sensitive information.
Internal Drive links are for the proper internal access lane. Public external links may be viewed separately, however they do not authorize PHC commitments or external sharing of restricted records.
Strong relationships can carry real work. Weak labels make strong relationships brittle.
How Relationship Records Should Be Read — Nornir Relationship Logic
The Nornir layer keeps relationship work from pretending to be more formal, more adopted, or more approved than it is.
Checked Relationship Record
For confirmed contacts, reviewed notes, approved partner files, Board records, signed agreements, and completed decisions. If the source does not prove formal relationship status, do not let the page imply it.
Active Relationship Work
For active conversations, intake, draft notes, emerging network work, and relationship-building that is still taking shape. Active does not mean approved. Warm does not mean binding.
Relationship Follow-Up
For Board review, MOU needs, safety questions, missing contacts, unclear boundaries, public wording, or follow-up tasks. Skuld is where "someone should probably follow up" stops haunting the rafters.
Relationship rule: conversation is not commitment. Source fact first. Interpretation second. Authority boundary always. A public link, stub record, shared value, or friendly contact is not formal adoption.
Moon + Sky Note — Seasonal Awareness
For awareness only. Verify against a trusted local calendar before any ritual, public-facing, or Board-facing copy.
