How do I be sovereign of myself?
Own your mistakes. Own your flaws.
Don’t feel shame at them, but don’t settle with them.
Have a constant vigilance to grow. To become better.
Love yourself through your struggles.
Keep humble in your victories, but maintain your pride.
Keep your teeth and claws sharp, and your heart gentle.
🖤

People Confuse Morrigan with other War deities
I feel like some of the discussion of Morrigan tends to lump her in with European or Norse ideas of war deities and she’s just so different. She’s arguably not even a war deity in the traditional sense.
The Morrigan rarely fights herself. She’s a talker and a planner and a prophet and poet.
She inspires heroes and sets up leaders.
She’ll go in disguise to judge your merit.
She’ll appear like a monster to test your resolve.
It’s not a case of not fighting, but choosing the moment carefully.
She crosses between this world and the next. She knows death, knows what the cost of fighting can be.
She knows the power of words in battle.

I know it’s trendy right now to say that adopting more of an eco-friendly lifestyle is pointless because the only way to save humanity is to destroy capitalism, but we should remember that many of those lifestyle changes help us build skills and social networks that would be important in a post-capitalism future.
For example, if we’re going to end reliance on factory farming, it would really help for more people to learn to garden and grow food. Same for other hands-on skills like cooking, crafts, home repair, tech repair, etc. Even small things like using re-usable water bottles and bags or thrifting/swapping items to cut down on waste would be regular features of a post-capitalist society, so making them more widely practiced now is a great thing.
Systemic changes are necessary for sure, but they *will* involve lifestyle changes too, and it’s important to do your part to create that from the ground up. We don’t get to a better system by destroying the old one, but by building up the new one. 🌱
Plus you can get a lot more people interested in anticapialism if you actually lead by example whenever possible. The message of solidarity is most meaningful when you are the one offering the solidarity, so to speak.
Local/individual green living isn’t going to solve climate change, but it has an impact. Global stuff needs to be solved by the money bags that caused it, but smaller things can be changed at the local level. The ice caps won’t stop melting if you curb trash dumping in a local river, but it still helps the surrounding habitat.
Also… if we do actually take out the companies and production systems that are causing cc, society will change, and will be different. We won’t have plastic bags anymore. We will have to garden or farm locally. We will have to travel differently.
Might as well get used to that rather than bitch about it when it becomes an unwilling change. Plus, there are plenty of morons who, on suddenly finding their quality of life is changing, will whine about it enough to let lobbyists try to maintain the status quo. Get them used to it now.

I love what The Morrigan represents to me because She helped me leave my parents’ house the first time. She helps the abused rise up and find the power within themselves to face their tormentors. She is every crow I see, watching and waiting and reminding me I am death but also life. She is a battle cry and also a whispered prayer in the middle of the night, reminding me I have the strength to go on.
