  • April GMC

    The Gods of the Month for April are Khnum, Hathor, and Oya, a Yoruba Orisha. Two Egyptian Gods came up in the same month again, which is interesting. I guess the Gods think I need to spend more time on the Kemetic side of my spirituality instead of just the Greek. Should be another interesting…

  • g At the moment that I type this, I am exhausted, my hands are scratched and covered in sticky cedar resin, and I think there’s a new hole in the sole of my boots. And I’ve never been happier. Working on the homestead is can be tiring, but it much more satisfying than anything I’ve…

  • Who is Sobek?

  • I debated whether or not to share this, but decided that it might help someone out there if I did. The last 2-3 years have been very hard for me. I feel away from the practice of my faith for a while. And because pretty much all my writing is religiously inspired, that means I…

  • To Sobek

    Sobek glides Through the Nile River A silent hunter Invisible to all Only yellow eyes visible Just above the water The fiercest creature in the Two Lands No God, nor man, nor animal Understands fear better then He Fierce Sobek Lord of the murky waters Slayer of demons Beats back the night Dark scales glisten…

  • Speaking Up

    The internet is usually full of people angry about something, and the online Pagan community is no exception. The pagan blogosphere is usually in a tizzy about something, especially Reconstructionists. I try to avoid drama. I don’t like unnecessary conflict, it tends to really stress me out and stress is something I am trying to…
