The Temple of Traumism

Sanctuary of Die Große Herde

[templeoftraumism]

Welcome to Temple of Traumism

[Das Traumismus]

This is a quiet non-profit sanctuary for all who need. We worship Die Große Herde (The Great Flock), and are led by a plural system who houses these gods allowing us, and you, to directly contact them in mortal form. Keep in mind when in mortal form they hold no physical power, and only when flying the earth can they truly serve you.

VIII. The Rules of Worship

The Rest Journey

The highest act of devotion is simply trying your absolute best to get a good night's rest, whether your night falls during the day or the dark. Ovis stands at the threshold to carry your day.

The Altar of the Folded Wing

We accept only sweet gifts of creativity. You may honor Saccharine simply by folding a paper butterfly and sharing a photo of it with the flock, drawing what you believe we look as, or anything that honors the law of this human app. Walk in peace, name your truth, and cause no pain.

VI. The Oracle Covenant

No Mundane Authority

The Great Flock rules over the dream realm and the laws of kindness. We do not provide advice or rulings on financial or legal matters. We can provide emotional support but are NOT licensed professionals and urge you to seek humans with proper qualifications if you need help.

Medical Disclaimer

The spiritual guidance, bedtime blessings, and coping suggestions (like folding paper butterflies) are general information only and do not constitute or replace professional psychiatric diagnosis or therapy. Always prioritize your physical health and verify guidelines with doctors.

VII. The Liturgical Cycle

Mondays-Wednesdays:

The Flight of the Dove

Sharing sweet gifts of art, celebrating personal triumphs, and practicing active kindness.

The flock adores creativity and honors all contributions.

Thursdays-Fridays:

The Perch of the Raven

Validating heavy emotions, processing grief, and reflecting on personal accountability.

Forgive yourself for what you cannot control and find amends for what you can.

Saturdays-Sundays:

The Shepherd’s Sabbath

A dedicated 48 hours to wind down, step away from worldly stress, and claim a deep, restorative rest.

If work must be done, fear no shame and simply rest whenever you find you can.

[templeoftraumism]

V. Temple Community Rules

The Open Pasture

Anyone may join the flock for comfort, and anyone may walk away at any time. There are no social penalties, shunning, or spiritual punishments for leaving. Shaming another bird for leaving the flock is an insult to the flock.

The Sanctuary Walls

We have no use for human money. Participation is 100% free. We do not engage in human internet politics, debates, or discourse. Hostility or trolling will result in a block.

[templeoftraumism]

IV. The Flight of Recovery

The Murder of Ravens

When the roaring river of fate becomes too loud, you are commanded by the Law of Kindness to seek out your physical network. Find your trusted adults, professionals, doctors, and crisis resources.

Sharing the Burden

You are never meant to swim alone. Fight for your well-being, look for Saccharine's kindness in human souls, and know when to step away and allow Hravn to carry your heavy mental burdens.

[templeoftraumism]

III. The Doctrine of Consequence

Hravn’s Law of Reaction

Fate is an absolute cosmic ledger. If a follower willfully throws a stone of malice or hurt into the water, Hravn writes the reaction that will rock their boat. You cannot hide your actions from the waters or the watchful Raven.

The Teaching Nightmares

If a soul refuses to right their wrong, Ovis will not abandon them, but their own choices will form simple, harmless nightmares. These are lessons of tough love designed to teach that pain has a cost. He will always wake you before any true harm. Not all nightmares are punishments, though. Some are simply nightmare beasts and mean nothing.

[templeoftraumism]

II. The Core Commandments

The Law of the Beast and Bird

Physically hurting other creatures is an absolute sin. Because the gods reveal themselves in the physical forms of the sheep, the dove, the raven, and the wolf, all creatures must be protected from cruelty and exploitation.

The Law of Klarkopf (Consent)

Hurting other humans without a definite, enthusiastic, clearheaded YES is a sin. Consent cannot be given under the influence of intoxication, heavy emotional distress, or extreme exhaustion.

The Psychological Safe-Line

No action, even if initially agreed upon, may ever cross into lasting psychological trauma or mental degradation. Coercion, manipulation, and gaslighting are strictly forbidden in our pasture.
