I’m back. You knew I would be.
I’ve realized that I tend to think about various paths while in various states. Whether I’m straight, or buzzed on caffeine, alcohol or a thousand other things, I have various connections to spiritual paths. But my perspective at the moment can make a difference in my mental connection to various spiritual exercises.
Part of my fragmentation comes from my youth. I was thrust into various religious groups and paths, and also bedeviled with my own endless curiosity about spiritual groups, rites and perspectives. I wasn’t in the library reading kiddie books; I was reading about religion.
When I touch the ground, a building, anything, I can often sense the spirits there. Someone on this very site told me that this is called “psychometry.” I looked that up, and got this: “There is no scientific evidence that psychometry exists and the concept has been widely criticized.”
Of course.
Anyway, why do I talk about paths that are outside the realm of what’s usually considered “the occult?” Because, for me, it all blends together.
I come from a blend of backgrounds, and beliefs. People think I should follow one certain path or another, but for me, everything is blended.
You don’t know what the people around you are doing. You don’t. The janitor who cleans your office could be a better magician than you.
I anoint, charge and carry the magickal seals. I do the rituals. But I also feed the animals outside. Which is more holy?
