I love that Paizo gave us a nonbinary god of familiars and witches and they make sure to let all their followers know that they better be their true queer selves and let everyone else be too, or they're not their friend.

Also, their familiar is a moth made of stardust that goes around and does therapy for all the other familiars in Golarion because they hear all the thoughts and prayers they have/make.

I acknowledge this tiny, finite form but I'm convinced of my indivisible, eternal soul - as ancient as time itself, throbbing and thriving - the core, the essence, the indescribable, the vital force of life itself, dancing, flying, growing, self-learning, evolving. Come not to confine, dare not to define, my existence is too sublime to be judged by the narrow scales of wit & reason. I'm made of the earth but my subsistence is of the heaven...

Mythic Pathfinder: A Double Review!

I don’t think I’ve ever done a review where I had to use two books at once, but here we are. Paizo has been hard at work with the remaster of Pathfinder Second Edition, and the latest two books can be taken separately, but are best looked at together. So let’s dive into Lost Omens : Divine Mysteries and War of the Immortals! DISCLAIMER: I was provided with electronic copies of these books by…

Cosmic Mother

At times, we see people share art depicting or mention feeling a connection with a Goddess, though they are not sure who she is. In some cases, we'll look at their art or comments and realize that they are connecting with the Cosmic Mother.

The creatrix mother between many worlds, the Cosmic Mother and the Goddesses with whom She works are the source of life and regeneration. The Cosmic Mother gifts us with creative energy, sacred magick, and the connective life-affirming force that can be felt in nature and inside of us all. She is ever loving, strong, and fierce. Connect with the Cosmic Mother to better understand the divine mysteries and your true self.

We were introduced to the Cosmic Mother as a defined figure by our spirit guides, many of whom are Goddesses who carry Her life-giving magick. We realized that we, and many others, have known Her for a long time without fully understanding it. She is the life song in the Universe, the source of the energy we connect with in the Earth and through plants, the dark Mystery behind the mysteries of the divine feminine—and so much more.

We recently posted a set of channeled iconography artwork honoring the Cosmic Mother on our website. While parts of the site are still under construction, we invite you to visit our Gallery section, where we will be posting full sets of channeled art. Viewing a collection in full can impart more of the channeled energies and help you to connect with them.

Had ye believed in agnosticism ye would have believed in God, and had ye believed in God ye would have believed in agnosticism. Is not that paradoxical? Far from it; it is by keeping close company with Jesus Christ that we begin to know that God is unknowable, that He has kept some things wholly to Himself, that there is no searching of His understanding, and that He can only be knowable by condescension and by revelation. God is unknowable, but God has the power to make Himself known in the degree in which our capacity can receive Him. [Now] keep steadily in mind what the purpose of this meditation is, namely, to show that a right belief at the beginning [allows for such a capacity, and as it grows] compels a man to add to that belief everything that is kindred and cognate to its own quality and its own purpose... one belief necessitates another, [and] faith grows towards more faith in the degree in which it is originally true, intelligent, and sincerely held. [Thus] the great religion of the Bible takes into itself– by an absorption vindicated by fact and by spiritual righteousness– all that is true, beautiful, musical, benevolent, philanthropic; it will not allow one daisy to fall out of its lap, and it has accommodation enough for the planets. Know that your first faith is right, because you are growing in grace and in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. [Yet] have we faith? The spirit of faith longs for more worlds for faith to conquer. Lord, increase our faith; give us vision after vision of Thy loveliness and Thy majesty, and give these visions to us, not in response to our vanity, intellectual or moral, but in response to an earnest desire to know somewhat more of the vastness of Thy kingdom, and the beneficence of Thine empire.

Words from Our Lady, Blessed Mother of the World and Queen of Abundance

Our Lady is the Queen of Life, Devotion, Expansive Divine Love, and the Sacred Heart

She presides over the mysteries of Sorrow, Life, Abundance, Inspiration, Angels, Compassion, Forgivness, Divine Love Sight

Our Lady wants us to understand wealth, abundance, and debt in our hearts for heart health, universal soul health, community health as well as to remind the workers of our tool kits. Recognition of wealth and support is a powerful asset for spiritual workers.

The floral symbolism of the great masters by Elizabeth Haig

https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/70433

To explain completely even so small a branch of Christian symbolism as that of flowers, an exhaustive knowledge is required of the development of Christian theology, and of the varying force with which different doctrines appealed at different times to the public mind. But still, these notes may be of some interest to those who care to trace in the work sanctioned by the Church and reverenced by the people the history of Western idealism, and who are sometimes puzzled by the conventions employed by the Masters to illustrate the Divine Mysteries.

“And yet it moved.”

Some of the difficulty with quantum mechanics has to reside in the problem of coming to terms with the simple fact that there is no such thing as information in and of itself independent of the apparatus necessary to its perception. There were no starry skies prior to the first sentient and ocular being to behold them. Before that all was blackness and silence.

And yet it moved.

"Minthara is so abusive to the player" *INCORRECT BUZZER NOISE*

Minthara would literally go to fucking hell for the opportunity to personally beat the absolute shit out of the person who actually did abuse you. She will throw hands with gods and devils just to avenge you.

And you will not be able to convince her not to.

Gay skeletons in space.

They'd rather play chauffer than let their rivals even think about touching the aux. (The chants they're playing are very important for their focus!)

The part I mean 😭

Went to bed thinking about the hilarity of that one bit in Divine Mysteries where the in-canon author, Yivali, starts speculating hard if Abadar and Asmodeus (or Abadar and Irori) (but NOT Abadar/Asmodeus/Irori in a triad) are romantically involved against her mentor’s best wishes and then had a dream where I was in Cheliax and forced to attend a festival commemorating the ‘unholy union’ of Abadar and Asmodeus, as revealed to the people by the clergy of both churches.

Because apparently they got married or something.

In the nature of things, man cannot ever fully understand God. Any honest thinker will accept that [truth. So] at the heart of any religion there must be mystery, for the simple reason that at that [mystery's] heart there is God.

[succulentsiren]

Maintaining mystery is a lost art in the age of social media and distractions.

As a collective, we are constantly being pushed to overshare, show off and rush into relationships, jobs and experiences, just to feel relevant. This mentality isn't healthy, it is basic insecurity.

Mystery however, shows inner comfortability and self confidence, which is a character trait that captivates. Like a slow burning flame, take your time instead of rushing against the clock to burn out.
