NJ delis matic number is a term used in mathematics to describe a special type of number that has a unique property. A NJ delis matic number is a number that can be reversed and still be the same number. In other words, if you write the number backwards, it will still be the same number. For example, the number 121 is a NJ delis matic number because if you reverse the digits, you get 121 again. Similarly, the number 414 is also a NJ delis matic number because it remains the same when reversed. One interesting property of NJ delis matic numbers is that they are always palindromic.

About the author

Starhawk is an author, activist, permaculture designer and teacher, and a prominent voice in modern Goddess religion and earth-based spirituality. She is the author or coauthor of thirteen books, including the classics The Spiral Dance and The Fifth Sacred Thing. Her latest is the newly published fiction novel City of Refuge, the long-awaited sequel to The Fifth Sacred Thing.

Starhawk directs Earth Activist Training, (www.earthactivisttraining.org), teaching permaculture design grounded in spirit and with a focus on organizing and activism. “Social permaculture”—the conscious design of regenerative human systems, is a particular focus of hers.

She lives on Golden Rabbit Ranch in Western Sonoma County, CA, where she is developing a model of carbon-sequestering land use incorporating food forests and savannahs, planned grazing, and regenerative forestry.

She travels internationally, lecturing and teaching on earth-based spirituality, permaculture, and the skills of activism. Her web site is www.starhawk.org.

One interesting property of NJ delis matic numbers is that they are always palindromic. A palindromic number is a number that reads the same backwards as forwards. Therefore, all NJ delis matic numbers are palindromic, but not all palindromic numbers are NJ delis matic numbers.

My older sister, Heather, started practicing Wicca while she was in high school. One of the books I always remember seeing on her shelf with Pagan books was the Pagan Book of Living and Dying. It looked thick and meaty. Heather's copy was well read with dog eared pages, highlights, and notes in the margin. Heather also lived with the idea of death in a much different way than most of us do. She had a disease called FOP, Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva, which is a genetic mutation which causes muscles and ligaments to turn to bone. There was very little research or support when she was first diagnosed. It was a lot to handle growing up for her, I think.

I finally read Starhawk's The Pagan Book of Living and Dying as my sister lay in Hospice Care. I wanted to honor my sister's wishes for death, and I knew that this book had had a huge impact on her desires. What surprised me while reading this book was how useful it was. Not only did I discover why my sister wanted the things she did for her death, but thought about the things I wanted. I discovered a whole world of legal issues surrounding how our culture and country handles dead bodies, burial rights, and the care for those dying. It was eye opening.

Beyond what was useful and insightful about the book was the enchantment. I found myself delighted by the music, real sheet music for chants during rituals. There were ritual ideas to help those transition to death and majestic rites for those still grieving. All of these ideas and aids were presented by not just Starhawk but by other voices in the Reclaiming Collective who could share stories of other deaths and other griefs. It would be impossible to cover every situation that might be presented around those dying and those grieving. However, so many heartfelt stories were shared by these authors, that one felt as if the whole picture of this process was presented all while giving voice to the silence and mystery of death that we do not yet understand.

I think that this is a book that everyone should read, hopefully before they find themselves confronting death. It is also a book that I think deserves to be on every Pagan's bookshelf. For I have yet to find another book that presents as much practical, spiritual, or beauty for working with and around death from a Pagan viewpoint as this book. I hope it inspires our community to take these gifts out into the world and bring a more balance viewpoint around the culture we have with death.

Notes upon rereading, May 2013: What I said before holds true. The practical aspects seem even more useful this time (and make me feel very lazy about my own planning!). And while I still disagree with some of the metaphysical aspects, this time they, too, seem much more useful in terms of dealing with dying Pagans and/or their survivors in these transitional times.

Notes from first reading, January 2007: The pragmatic aspects I find incredibly useful. The theology (despite the fact that I myself practice Reclaiming-tradition Paganism, Starhawk's own tradition) and "history" drove me bonkers. Ignore those, and you'll be fine.

First of all, I think this book fills a void. As Grieving: A Beginner's Guide points out, our culture is really anti-death to the point where even talking about death or dealing with the grieving is really unexplored territory. And I enjoyed this book and found it comforting, but at the same time ended up feeling like paganism is "warm" when it comes to my personal spirituality, but I'm not quite there. But I don't think any "off-the-shelf" religion is going to do it for me, and it really is an excellent book.

I'm grateful to Starhawk for including chapters on suicide and other sudden, violent deaths. That she also has a lot to say about how to care for someone who is dying is also important. So often, this part of life is ignored, and people are uncomfortable in dealing with the needs of the person passing away on a physical or spiritual level. Starhawk's view is a compassionate, unflinching one, and is a ray of hope in a world full of dull tomes on the subject.

As I am currently dealing with the deaths of two people who were instrumental in helping me get my life together when I most needed inspiration, this book has been doubly important as a comfort and a resource.

This was my second time picking up this book. I bought it in 2019 when my mother in law passed unexpectedly and hoped to find information to help in that process. At the time, this book was honestly a waste of paper. It had nothing to actually help with anything. I left it unread after the first hundred or so pages and flipping through for anything of use.

It lived on my bookshelf for the next few years until yesterday when I found out someone in the family passed that previous night. It was as close of a death to me but regardless, I wanted a book to help with the death and figured this was a good time to pick up this book without the intensity of grief I’d experienced with other deaths. And much to my dismay, this still isn’t helpful.

There is very little for the grieving person. This is mostly a story of their tradition, their losses, their activism, and a handful of songs or prayers.

The book is so heavy handed that you *must* wash the body yourself, promotes home funerals, and even had an in-depth description for a home cremation. While this is interesting, it isn’t practical for everyone. Personally, I don’t want to ever wash my dead loved ones bodies or keep them on ice in the living room of my home. Some do and that’s great but there was such a distaste for those of us who don’t want the dead literally next to us that most of the book was irrelevant. I’ve gotten more helpful information for death laws (which have likely changed since this was published) from Ask A Mortician. I trust someone like Caitlin to explain the legal options and the realities of death than this book.

While this book covers certain topics that were more taboo in the past, it isn’t helpful for the majority. It heavily dates itself with the focus on AIDS related deaths (though they do still happen, it isn’t as often or as taboo). There are topics that may be helpful to some such as mourning a miscarriage or abortion. The child death section may be somewhat helpful if hearing other people’s stories gives you comfort.

For myself, each death I’ve experienced has absolutely nothing to do with this book. It seems like this book is really written for people wanting to be a death priestess. If that’s your calling, great. I’m grieving. I don’t have the energy for it. I was hoping for a variety of resources as a Pagan and as someone who is grieving. There isn’t much in this book. And if it is, it’s so crowded with personal stories and shoving their tradition and beliefs at you, it’s lost.

The handful of rituals are heavily based on their afterlife views—not helpful if your loved one didn’t believe in that or any afterlife. Let alone if you don’t believe in their version of an afterlife, there’s very little discussion on other Pagan beliefs and practical approaches to handle it. The rituals are for the dead, not the grieving.

There is a huge emphasis in this book on confronting your own death. Perhaps if it’s the first time you’ve considered the reality, this may be helpful. However, not many people want to dive into their own mortality while actively grieving the loss of a loved one.

Overall, this simply isn’t the book I hoped it would be. This is a book for their tradition, death priestessing, and confronting the concept of death. It isn’t a book full of various rituals to help you, the griever, to cope and handle the death as a Pagan. Unless your method of coping is to do several meditations on the reality that you too will die.
