Mellow....

Thanks to all the “fun” lately, I’ve loosed up quite a bit….Theologically-speaking. It’s become more Important to gain Deeper Understanding of the Regin, as well as any and all Wights I run across than whether my Practice is as close as it can be to that of my Ancestors.
After all, I’m Following my Ancestor’s God/desses. I’m living Their Core Values. So what if my Daily practice isn’t in Their Tongue? Written Word-For-Word by Them? That my Sacrifices come more often from Commercial sources than my own Land? That I don’t gauge my own Self-Worth by my Parents Social Standing(or my own;>?). That my “Wealth” isn’t in Acres, Vassals or Treasures(no matter how much Amber my time with Hrafnar accumulated;>).
I’m more Interested in the Regin and all the Wights, Wealful and Woeful(so I can avoid or placate Them…) and how best to Interact with Them than that of Hierarchies and Thrones(sorry, Heathenry, not Ceremonial Magick;>). Honestly, I wasn’t that Interested in Feudalism in my Wiccan, SCA and Troth days when I lived in communities with mult members. I’m even less as a Solitary Heathen in an Eclectic Wiccan/Pagan Land…
I’m back reading my Lorebooks and even(GASP!) Meditating on the material Read. Sure, they’re in Modern English but I’m no longer Obsessive about what the meaning of “is” is;>. In some ways I think my Irish Ancestors are Happier now that I’ve put “My English Adventure” behind me. I’d felt the entire time that I was somehow Dishonoring Them anyway….
Troth,
Pat
