Athena Minerva: Lorddess of Wisdom

   In my personal pantheon, I have a name I use for the gods. Since I work with various gods from various paths, yes I am eclectic or as we call it in my MFT class--integrated. Since not all my gods dwell upon Olympus, it made sense to reference them all by another group name. Which it is personal and I will not post the name here, but I usually collectively call them Lords (I use it much the same way as one would use gods as a collective term for all gods).
   Athena Minerva, the Lorddess of Wisdom, has always had a special place in my heart! My family on my father's side comes from a family with the last name of Mocho which means owl. So I suppose she has always had a place in my family even though they did not know it as they were catholic. I just wanted to post some Athena Minerva love to my page. As you probably noticed, as a side note, that I use both her Greek and Roman name. I personally see both goddess being the same being just understood by two different cultures. So praise be to Athena Minerva!!

Ouija.

   Something that I have been wonder, dear reader, what is your views on working with the Ouija? I personally have always felt a strong connection with the Ouija. I have even have said a home without a Ouija is a home with out a soul. I truly believe that!
 
   However, some people have such a knee jerk reaction to the use, selling, and just the mere mention of it. Why is that? I have always held the belief that the Ouija is no different that Tarot or another other form/tool of divination...but why does Ouija get a bum wrap?

 

Non-corporeal beings

   As I sit here on this Saturday night, taking a break from researching for my group project, looking at my new Ouija board I start to formulate an idea I have been toying with for a few months. A few months ago, I started getting strange names in my dreams. Names that when I Google them, nothing comes up. So I started to write each and everyone and through meditation I've decided to get to "know" these names.

   As my own path evolves and grows, I've begun to include prophets....granted I use the Hebrew name, Nevi'im (Prophets), to my path. The more I wonder on the names, the more I realize that perhaps the names are non-corporeal beings/Prophets.

   I know how crazy that sounds, non-corporeal beings; however, I do as a pagan believe in such beings. I also believe that it is possible that such beings can talk to us through our dreams or even day dreams. I have begun, as I previously said, to write them down and then based on my gut feeling write how they are related or connected to one another. Perhaps they are masks of the various entities/beings from the various religious paths I have come across in my religious travels/studies.

   The jury is still out, but I am embracing it! These names, thoughts, beings, etc... are coming from somewhere, whether my subconscious or beings who communicate via the dreams, I am going with it. I mean, why is it that modern folks have this view that when God(s) talk, it is going to be a loud boom with trumpets? Is it that hard to believe that God(s) or Beings talk to you maybe they will use methods and means that best work for us? If we are open to dreams communication, then that is what will be used, not loud booms or bellowing voices. Perhaps, these beings are doing the same and; ultimately, I am going to embrace it and explore it.

What do you, dear reader think about this? What are your views regarding such beings and; therefore, communications?

Clearing the cob webs and an update.

Well it's been awhile since I was last here--there have been big changes in my life. I have re-enrolled back to UoP! I'm in my second class in my master's program. Thus far, I passed my last class with an A! AN A!!! And so far with this second class, I have an A also! I am so proud of myself, there was some doubt about me being able to do this, as it's a totally different way of learning than I am used to! However; I am excited about doing well and can't wait til I complete my masters and get licensed as a MFT!

As you can see, there have been great changes to this blog, I have felt the call of the release and saw that while my stay was comfortable, the Lords (as I call the gods) felt it was time for change to happen! While the ideas previously explored in my path have been released, they will not be forgotten. My path has been enriched and expanded and new ideas based on old ideas have come into play. New exciting ideas have come and I again feel the breathe of the gods in my life.

As new ideas come into being, I can see connections to older ideas and I love it!

I plan to update this blog more as time goes on, I need time to decompress and relax after a week of reading, prep-ing for class etc... So I plan to be back and going to post more!

Wish me luck, dear readers!


Written In Earth 

It's Been Ages...

Well I have been completely lax when it comes to this blog! However; I do have a good excuse! I am currently enrolled in a class that fulfills my lacking three credits that the UoP says that I need to have in order to take the M.F.T. Masters program...so this eight week course has had me running around crazy with the amount of work! So my apologies for the lacking content! However; I am planning to get back into the swing of things...I have some wonderful ideas and workings that I want to share here and start again the dialog...

Just bare with me and I promise to get the ball rolling again.
