Spirituality for Living

Is it some peoples nature to control? To a degree yes.  It is visible in animals also, the “alphas”. But human alphas tend to distort and thus debase that instinct. They take natural instincts and warp them and make them about ego. The lion that “takes” a mate is not being egotistical, but he is [...]

Death rites are perhaps the most universal in there nature and there significance. The lore behind death rites is as big as religion, science and magic itself, and the rites of death are really rites of life. They differ as much as the cultures views on life, from the Haitian “birthday” like celebration to an [...]

How many of you are in a tradition of some sort? I eat breakfast every day.   Yes the cult of breakfast, I sometimes venerate the flying spaghetti monster in that rite as my own personal heresy.
I just left my marriage, am between homes and starting a new job.  I don’t do tradition. Ok, now have you [...]

I am discussing psychic vampirism. I discuss a broad range of subjects and hit just about everything. It isn’t an endorsement or criticism of any practice or phenomenon.
Have you noticed that not everyone seems to have a normal energy cycle? They sleep irregularly and are sometimes energized when they should be fatigued? Energetically, we aren’t [...]

There are certain people that leave me feeling drained consistently.  Are they really draining me? What can I do about it? They may be, but are they draining you or taxing you?

Let’s discuss problem psychic vampires. When unaware they tend to be angry people, and you can feel it because they don’t just drain you, they negate you. Even if they aren’t being mean to you, it is just very hard to be present with them, though not all unpleasant people are psychic vampires. A psychic [...]

What is your personal take on the whole modern resurgence, or rather, a reworking of dragon myth for modern man in the reptilian theory? Well, the humanizing is a semi-enlightenment. The alien conspiracy phobia is a crock though, and really even the whole “alien” idea. Not to say there are no extra-terrestrial intelligences, but humans [...]

How to ready “geography” according to geomancy?
They were primarily concerned with two things: mountains and rivers. The arrangement of mountain to river was the basic way of determining the healthiness of the energy there, and mountains and rivers have been the most important places in every other tradition too, even if they have slightly different [...]

Responsibility. Are we responsible for anything beyond our direct human connections?

I don’t see how we can be.
Well, doesn’t that include the cosmos? We do chant for the sun to rise.

Our direct connections do include the land we live with, yes, but most people feel ill equipped to see the land as something you can communicate [...]
