You may remember my points from a recent post about what's working me now. I'm working with a seminary that is unabashedly (and even beautifully) Wiccan. Whole-heartedly Wiccan, from the ritual style to theology to areas of interest (forms of healing humans, herbs, chakras, etc). I love them for being so Wiccan because nowadays it … Continue reading Witch or Druid?
Woolston Steen Theological Seminary
Wuv… Twu Wuv…
For Beltaine, I had to write a short response to love and fertility deities and mythologies. In particular, I was supposed to contrast them with the Adonis myth. I was kind of surprised by what I came up with. Youth, lust, possession, lack of consent, immaturity, impatience… all things that seem to function in most … Continue reading Wuv… Twu Wuv…

Seminary and Community
It's been about five weeks since I decided to take the plunge and check out Woolston-Steen Theological Seminary. And while I wasn't exactly working on a whim, I wasn't sure what to expect. Regular readers will know I was coming out of a period of intense questioning and feeling lost. And while I chose them … Continue reading Seminary and Community
what up wit’ me? what up wit’ you?
Oh you guys. So much going on in my brain and my heart and the place between where emotions live, and also in the place above where divine things dance. When push comes to shove with the idea of attending a Christian church, I just ... can't. I can't. The likelihood of having to deal … Continue reading what up wit’ me? what up wit’ you?
