Thinking About Stone Temples And Shrines To The Goddesses Just Out In Nature Somewhere. Being Able To

Now that it's summer I can feel myself drawn to activities that are on a higher frequency. Dance, art, music, preparing food and connecting to what's real. Also, putting effort into looking nice, something that in my pagan days I didn't consider sacred or holy because I saw it as unnatural (along with most purely human activities and instincts that we don't share with our animal counterparts). I've never felt more connected to the Divine than when I started seeing our humanity as divine. I feel nothing but love for the natural world, animals, and nature worship itself. But I realize that in doing what I thought was 'going back to the basics' and spiritually valuing only that which came directly from nature, I denied myself the one thing I wanted: a spiritual relationship with the Goddess, the gods, and other people

I will no longer limit myself. I free myself from the bounds of set paths and past expectations. All the Janyati are present in all that I am. My body and mind are shaped in Their image. Words cannot encompass what my soul is made of. I serve only the Goddess.

God does not make mistakes. You were made in Her image. We are led astray by false gods and idols so that we be persuaded, to change our faces, our bodies, our beauty. We destroy Her Creation, Her carefully crafted features, that She gifted our mothers and grandmothers before us. The features She will gift your children, and your grandchildren. And you will look upon them, and see God Herself in your Creation. And you will see beauty.

don't care + didn't ask + i see beauty in things you wouldn't even begin to ponder
