Lucky lucky lucky. Sorry, back in the gutter...cuz Hecate called to me revealing herself to me.
Oof...
We need you on this earth. Many people love you so much. You are good enough. Never forget thatI never went out of my way to become a Pagan. I found my former religion wasn't working for me, even though on every other level I believed it to be true and intellectually satisfying, as well as matching my world experiences and spiritual longings - but it also lacked a lot; it lacked too much for me to handle, when it came down to it. I had to choose another before I committed suicide - I knew it was time for change. I'm not an 'Earth Mother' kind of Pagan. I'm not a 'Nature is God' kind either. That's really not my thing.
So I treaded carefully, wondering first which religion would be spiritually and intellectually satisfying for me. Naturally I went immediately after the one I'd been fascinated with as a child, which was Ancient Egyptian - or 'Kemetic' - religion. I'd had statues of some of the Gods and Goddesses on my windowsill as a kid and I thought, what the heck, I'll look into that one properly. No other Pagan God called to me at all and I've noticed there are also very few Kemetic practitioners even as modern Paganism is taking off. I landed at Ramesside Theology, Amun-Re spirituality, which sees the various Netjeru (Gods and Goddesses) as Emanations or Aspects of Amun-Re. The same Aspects still call me as when I was a child - Heru, Re, as well as now Inpu, Usir and Hat-Hor.
So I just decided to call right back.
I have some Moroccan ancestry and Kemetic religion was also in Morocco in Antiquity. I wonder if that contributes.I was born into Roman Catholicism. The theology, cosmology, soteriology and ontology of Christianity no longer made sense to me. From an early age (preteen) I was drawn to Hinduism and Indian thought, philosophy and culture. I suspect I was Indian and/or Hindu in a past life or lives. I think it was a matter of returning to my roots.
Thank you!We need you on this earth. Many people love you so much. You are good enough. Never forget that
Because of my love for nature and cuz Hecate called to me revealing herself to me.
She let me know through divination she didn't want me worshipping her anymore.
