Why Loki isn’t an April Fool
It’s April 1st once more and as is tradition, many people see April Fools’ Day as Loki’s holiday because of His trickster aspect and the fact that He is full of surprises and jokes. When I first became His devotee, I thought of it as Loki’s day off because people were already making a mess… Continue reading

On Mediumship, Channeling, and Possession
It is not a common topic for this to be discussed but I’ve touched on it very briefly in previous posts and so I want to speak about what this even looks like and how it happens with the Gods. There seems to be a lot of fear around having the Gods approach you and… Continue reading

Gatekeeping the Divine in the Community

They use this sort of thing to their advantage and it’s not for any real reason that is ever explicitly appointed in any theosophical records or any part of any pantheon ever.

Reshaping How We Connect with the Gods
