I'm pagan nowadays, sort of Wiccan, but recognizing the dark aspects of the Goddess and God that take care of this world and skeptical about the Rule of Three.
And I still wonder why thinking about Satan, the goat god (the dark aspect of the God?), makes my hands hot with healing energy. Something similar happens with Santa Muerte. No god so far has given me more power to heal than the goat god.
But isn't darkness really more about death and destruction than about healing? About yin energy or inactivity?
I got a thought; a concept about this, as an answer. I think it came from the Goddess but I'm not sure. It's just my UPG, but I think it may have sense. It is: "Healing is sometimes a dirty job that luminous entities aren't willing to do.". I'm not saying light gods aren't able to heal, I'm just wondering about the higher efficacy I noticed in the dark ones.
