So you want to befriend like-minded polytheists? Don’t know what to expect? Follow these guidelines. — It’s autumn. You saw it coming. My interest in modern paganism goes back to my late childhood / early adolescence in the 90s/2000s. You do the math. I’ve been on and off, even going on a long sabbatical period (10 years give or take) when I tried being a total…

Repeat with me: nothing is exactly how it looks at first impression. Nothing! — Look… If you’re here wishing for a quick “how-to” guide on how to understand people who are in denial… Or any other sort of flowchart or bite-size piece of information about the human psyche… You’re wasting your time. Don’t even bother reading, goodbye, see you soon. Don’t get me wrong…

No matter how horribly they are behaving, you have ZERO control over that. — The above picture — that’s how I feel: between two walls, both standing merciless. Alone to fend for myself, and perhaps even getting blamed for ending up where I am. “Oh, but you chose to move here. Don’t like it, go back home”, some will say. Sorry, my bad. I…

That’s a universal fact, love it or hate it. — First of all, an important distinction: I am NOT talking about religion. Open-mindedness is for spirituality only. Why, Lucy, is there a difference? Aye. There is. And it’s a very important difference you should keep in mind. Religion is about community and rituals — a person can be religious but…

An article for occultists and other people who embrace alternative spirituality. — First, some caveats are needed: This article is NOT meant for you IF: a) You live in a Theocracy (for example, a place where Sharia law is in force). If you live in any of those countries, first of all, be careful what you read online? I’m surprised you found my blog? I hope you’re okay? Secondly: I…

I’ve been an insider to both communities. This is not a prejudiced opinion piece, because I’ve experienced what I’m talking about first-hand. — This is an 18+ article, be warned. Parental guidance is recommended. Don’t worry, I’m not referring to every person in these alternative communities. I’m talking about a phenomenon that is just a bit too prevalent in them. It’s not “weird” in and of itself, since it’s part of human nature…

This article is not for atheists (it goes without saying). I do not proselystise. — As the title suggests, I am writing a part 2 to a topic I’ve already covered in the past. In case you missed it, here is the link. Before you keep reading here, I suggest you at least take a look at the first article, as it could already have…

Maybe a clarifying article is in order. — If you already follow me, you might have noticed I changed my name. I also changed the profile photo to something that goes better with the new name. But what’s up with that? Am I starting anew? Eh… Not quite. Keep reading to find out. Moving on from Meron, the Pict… I’m not afraid to move…

Which one are you? Find out here. — You might have heard these terms somewhere, but can’t put a finger on why you know them; OR perhaps you’re a Philosophy enthusiast and already know Nietzsche “came up” with the dichotomy.
