Changing Paths challenge day 22: feast
I love to have a feast (shared food / Pagan potluck) in sacred space, so that we are feasting with the gods. However it’s got a bit impractical with the numbers of people involved and so we tend to have our feast after circle these days.
Changing Paths challenge day 21: solstice
The sun pauses on her journey
Around the horizon
Waiting for you to stop
To look around and see
The beauty of the world
Changing Paths challenge day 20: cycles.
All four classical elements have cycles.
What goes around comes around.
Everything is always changing, nothing is ever lost.
Changing Paths challenge 19: Time 🕰️ ⏰
Humans haven’t always thought of time as linear. A cyclical view of time seems to me to be more in tune with Nature.
Many cultures see time as cyclical, or as a set of interlocking cycles: the cycle of the sun, the moon, the stars, the rotation of the Earth, the seasons, geological cycles, and so on. Many Pagans see time as cyclical, and we talk about the Wheel of the Year. The phases of the moon have always been important, as shown by the ancient moon calendar carved into a piece of horn or antler.
Changing Paths challenge day 18: Intuition
Spidey sense, gut feeling: we might call these a sort of bodily knowledge, but they are key components of intuition.
Changing Paths challenge day 17: my journey
Despite the adage that one supposedly becomes more conservative as one gets older, I have in fact become more left-wing. I’m generation X but apparently this is also true of millennials. Good job millennials, keep it up.
In terms of my Pagan path, my goals have shifted towards community building—perhaps in response to the trend towards social isolation.
Changing Paths challenge day 16: life.
“My mission in life is not merely to survive, but to thrive; and to do so with some passion, some compassion, some humor, and some style.” — Maya Angelou
Maya Angelou also said that none of us are free until we are all free. The bottom line is that everyone should be able not merely to survive but to thrive.
