Let go.

All things are possible on the borderlands.

Strange journeys ahead... take control of your quest; choose your companions wisely.

There is magic in the beginnings.

Not All and Not Always: words for the liminal god

Not All and Not Always: words for the liminal god

The story begins like this: someone is lost, someone finds a thing, not what they were looking for, but a thing they need. You are wandering. Perhaps you are wandering in fact, on a hike, on vacation, a break from your everyday life. Perhaps you are wandering in spirit only, in the idle moments of your day, or when you ought to be focused on something else, something important. Perhaps the face…

ha ha oh you

I make a post on how I maybe kind of sort of idk want to do this thing but I definitely don't know how and I definitely don't want to seem like an authority on anything idk idk

and literally IMMEDIATELY AFTER THAT here comes that post on my dash about how certain types of people do this exact thing that I just did. 

wow. 

[avalonauggie]

thinking about making an e-shrine for at least one of the figures in my practice. I keep getting little nudges but I have so many reservations about it. :/

one of which being I'm terrible at Website Things and I'm not even sure what options there are. How effective are tumblr shrines? what other types of webhosts make for good shrines? What am I even looking to do with a shrine, anyway?

that, and have such an aversion to anything that might imply I'm an authority on anything, I know at some point I do want to be more open about what and who my practice involves but I'm not sure if I feel ready. hrm.

hahahah haha hah deity portraiture

trying to create an evocative visual representation of a nameless deity with plausible iconography I built in a cave with a box of research scraps and laughing at my own foolishness.

ha ha ha OH YOU

That time when I was like "okay LG I am freaking out about the possibility of getting this job after being unemployed for so long and I've done all I can and it's out of my hands now so if you can do me a solid and help out on that front that would be super and I will bake the finest beer bread for you for now here's some cash"

And then Saturday I got a call saying "hey come in on Monday to meet with HR and get the formal offer and take your drug test!" and I was super stoked but the kitchen was disgusting and I had no spoons to clean it enough to bake right then and there

and then fast forward to the said Monday and I have an UNREASONABLE AMOUNT OF TRANSIT SHENANIGANS and what was supposed to be a short thing turned into half the day and involved a lot of walking around in the cold with my hair wet! 

I'm not saying I could have avoided transit stress if I had just made the damn beer bread as soon as I heard I was getting the job, but...maybe I could have been a bit more proactive on that front. 

anyway! I have a JORB NOW and I am so flipping relieved and the kitchen is now clean so tomorrow BAKING CAN COMMENCE.

hurling abuse at noncorporeal entities, the blog:

I think it might say something about me when my attempts at divination (to determine if today's offering for LG were good or not and/or what damn name I should call them by) have me exclaiming "YOU LITTLE SHIT" multiple times, loudly, alone in my apartment.

That feeling when you find something relevant

....when you're not even looking for it. 

When nothing's felt relevant for months and months but like a week after you really earnestly pray again and start taking steps to work creatively on devotional art again you run into sheep imagery. 

weirdly familiar sheep imagery of a breed you've never seen before but looks a lot like that one from that dream years ago that started this whole ball rolling. 

And where are these sheep from? freaking switzerland, where your research wanderings led you before, to no end at the time. And do the sheep wear those big ridiculous cowbells while wandering the alpine countryside? yes, yes they do. And they sound like what you heard while meditating. 

And you think oh wait didn't some of this early possible godthing contact come while you were staying in Geneva (New York and not Europe but the connection is there nonetheless)??

oh, you fucker.

(so this was a couple months ago and I forgot to post it then, but hello audience! this is an example of basically....the type of possible deity contact I get. This only happens occasionally. And it's always super annoying.)
