“For example, we often hear that necromancy was outlawed because it was a devilish practice that depended upon the power of Satan for its effectiveness. What you do not hear is that necromnacy was an aspect of ancestor worship, and that part of outlawing it involved making it illegal to bury your family members on your own land. Suddenly, you were required to bury your dead in Church-sanctioned graveyards. This effectively removed one of your most solid claims to ownership of your ancestral land. It was no longer the place where you could prove your forefathers lay buried. It made it easier for authorities to come along and kick you out of your home and take state ownership of the land your family had left to you. This also supported the ultimate goal of breaking up family clans, and the political power and wealth that often went along with them.”

The Only Relevant Question

Are you at peace within your own heart? That's what love is. The most powerful force on Earth. The most primal organ of the human body beats tirelessly and works in optimal synchronization with the decision making faculties of the brain and a multitude of other bodily functions when in a peaceful, coherent state. Stress and agitation of all variety lead to impaired bodily and mental functioning. I am not talking about some intangible, mystical "force" that has no effect in observable reality. I am speaking about the meeting point of poetry and science. Love is just the word we give that "answer" which ties it all together, across every possible sphere. Total interconnectivity and coherence, synchronization, harmony. It is not some hidden mystery only saved for the realms of "woo-woo" and mysticism, no. It is not reserved for only a select "worthy" few. It is observable and felt within in every breath we take. It is right in front of us, always, and its effects are immediately apparent in absolutely everything we see and do. That is love.

"The point of marriage is not to create a quick commonality by tearing down all boundaries; on the contrary, a good marriage is one in which each partner appoints the other to be the guardian of his solitude, and thus they show each other the greatest possible trust. A merging of two people is an impossibility, and where it seems to exist, it is a hemming-in, a mutual consent that robs one party or both parties of their fullest freedom and development. But once the realization is accepted that even between the closest people infinite distances exist, a marvelous living side-by-side can grow up for them, if they succeed in loving the expanse between them, which gives them the possibility of always seeing each other as a whole and before an immense sky.”

― Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters to a Young Poet
