When you arise in the morning, think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive - to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love.

Tonight I sit with a heavy grief at the passing of a dear friend. No words come to me but these: “Don’t behave as if you are destined to live forever. What’s fated hangs over you. As long you live and while you can, become good now.” - Marcus Aurelius

Life is not obligated to be kind and peaceful to you. But let this be a relief, because you are not relying on externals to keep your peace. You can embody these values and life shall transform before your eyes.

Just found out two people who were dear to me passed away within the past year. Another reminder that life can change quickly and tomorrow is not a guarantee. Memento mori.

A Venn diagram displaying a large circle with the text “Indo-European Polytheism.” Within the large circle are two overlapping circles. The one on the left is labeled “Stoicism” and the one on the right is labeled “Buddhism”.
Pre-Axial Age polytheism is wonderful for connecting to the outer world and the spirits who dwell there, but lousy when it comes to inner work. Thus, I must plug in the gaps with established traditions to completely fulfill me.

This is a gentle reminder that within your inner citadel, your spirit, your soul, no one can truly harm you. No one can take that from you. Your guiding principle, that inner Fire, always burns, and will always guide you.

On this day,
may I act with Wisdom, Vision, and Piety.
On this day,
May I act with Courage, Integrity, and Perseverance.
On this day,
may I act with Hospitality, Moderation, and Fertility,
with Justice over all.
May it be so!

In ADF, we follow the Nine Virtues. I have added a tenth in my own practice, which is Justice. Justice is right-action, and once we step onto that path, the rest of the Virtues open before us so that they may enrich our lives.

Remember; Nature is ever changing. Ever evolving.
There's a difference between nature and Nature.
You may want to tap out when things get hard, but your nature won't allow you to.
Nature rewards those who continue to embrace their nature. No matter how difficult it can be.

I often find monsters to be more relatable and inspirational than humans in stories.
Beast from Beauty and the Beast.
Kratos from God of War (2018).
Dracula from Castlevania.
The way that they find their humanity, and showing more of it than humans, is nothing less than awe-inspiring.

Titles are like legacies, they only encompass a fraction of who you are.
We remember people for one action, and that's all.
You're irreplaceable in terms of how nuanced and multilayered you can be.
Don't allow others to dictate what your identity is nor how others will see you.

Another turning comes and goes. The waves of life mount, crest, and pass. There will be an ebb, and there shall be more waves. Cling to reason as your rock, and no wave will consume you.

14 years ago today I went through an apartment fire. It is from this event that I learned the value of “amor fati.” From these bitter ashes came the sweetest fruit, for it allowed me to turn my life around and take it back. Gratitude always.

If someone were to ask me what the first resource I would recommend for a beginning Pagan, I would say anything that helps you develop a code of ethics. This sets you on the path to living excellently, which will begin your journey to living in accord with the Cosmos.
