Hymn to Sekhmet

by Joey Rivers (ascendingaeons)

O Sekhmet, Great Eye of Ra, the First and the Last Healer and Destroyer, Mother and Daughter You Who accepted the Command of Ra, Your Father To cleanse the Two Lands of Isfet But Your nature was too mighty, Great of Strength as You Are Wanton and unrestrained, You ravaged Earth as a purifying flame And as Ra looked on and saw His Eye, He was stricken with pause By the Will of the Sun, Your Rage was quieted by a crimson brew And into transformative slumber You fell, Great Goddess And from Your great Rage, Het-Heru rose A new Eye was christened, of eros sublime And you, Great Mother, knew the sadness of regret

You, Great Goddess, know the measure of rage unbound And so You Stand, Great Mother of War, in defense and duty Of the Principles and Consequences of Ma’at Your Children are many, Great Lady of Life Diverse in their multitudes, empowered by their tribulation

Yours is the soldier, Your Mighty Sekhem made flesh and bone Entrenched in a maelstrom of fire and blood Returning home to a nation that does not understand him

Yours is the survivor, a living branch of Your burning Will triumphant Endeavoring to rise above the quagmire of loss and agony Through You their struggle is transmuted into the golden light of ka ascendant

Yours is the mother, she who knows sacrifice and sleepless nights A font unyielding of love and pride, of smiles and laughter perfected They who bear the weight of the world so a child can know childhood

Yours is the healer, an alchemist of the ontological persuasion He who is humbled by the frailty beholden to human experience He who ushers Your Sekhem through the riptide of transformative loss

Yours is the artist, through whose passions course Your Divine Fire Who walks the scales of inspiration and madness, knowing Creation unfiltered An alchemist versed in the milieus of perception

For You, Great Goddess, are the very Force of Change You are that which makes men tremble so Such an unnecessary fear, of wisdom and experience untouched Were I You, I would feel such sadness But how You smile, Great One! How You laugh! How You fight! You are not ��she who cowers before Apep!” NO! You are the Great Lioness Who rends Chaos asunder! You fight and rage and bite and tear Passion and emotion alive and unrestrained!

You are Love, Great Goddess You are Fear, Great Goddess You are Devotion, Great Goddess You are Loss, Great Goddess You are Health, Great Goddess You are Sickness, Great Goddess This is why I call You the Mother of Life Your Ka is the very essence of experience! Your Sekhem is the very wind of change!

When I first called upon You, timid and unsure, I beheld Your Gaze, a window of fire open before my face And as quickly as You Saw me, You left And again when I called to You with offering of water and bread Exhausted by grief and devotion, tirelessly sung from a caregiver’s heart You came to me and my eyes were opened to You! As I lay without sleep, You stood at my bedside Stroking my back with strong hands of fire Whispering strength and courage into my ear As a sentinel You walked with me, a Mother Lioness guarding Her cub Such loyalty and tenderness You showed And my eyes were forever opened to Your nature

You are the very Force of Creation, the Monad of Being From which stems those primordial principalities Love and Fear, Physis and Logos, Known and Unknown Order and Disorder, Life and Death, Dynamism and Stasis

I offer henu to You, Great Goddess of Creation The endless potentiality and movement of the living cosmos The Fires Divine that Become living sinews and living earth

I offer henu to Your Husband Ptah, the Cosmic Smith Patron of artisans, of those who tirelessly toil In the pursuit of Bringing Into Being but a shard of the Sacred Unmanifest

I offer henu to Your Son, the Beautiful Nefertem The Ageless Lotus that rose from the Benben Stone The First Splendid Light to Shine in the churning Waters of Nun

It was You Who held my right hand as I accepted the mark of a healer And embraced me as a Mother would Her graduating son I offer You my pain, Great Goddess So that You may transmute it into Strength I offer You my fear, Great Goddess So that You may transmute it into Courage I offer You my uncertainty, Great Goddess So that You may transmute it into Wisdom

Into Your Belly I give of myself to unleash my greatest potential To burst from Your Bosom, shining and emboldened For there is nothing that is beyond Your Reach, Great Mother It is for me, now, to See that nothing is beyond my own

Dua Sekhmet! Dua Sekhmet! Dua Sekhmet!

Azabu Juban Hikawa Shrine

Depending on which version of the anime you watch, the Hikawa Shrine is based off a different one and in different sections of Tokyo.

Below is the version featured in Sailor Moon Crystal.

The Hiwaka Shrine in Azabu Juban taken on December 3, 2022. Lots of leaves still on the trees but past peak season. The entrance way is a little different from the Crystal series.

Close up of the stone with the shrine name.

These stairs do not exist at the real life shrine location. I feel like these were added as a nod to the 90s version of Rei's shrine. Also the bus stop is at the end of the block and across the street.

Choozuya in use.

Choozuya were not in use in December 2022 due to COVID.

Choozuya are traditionally used to wash your left hand, right hand, mouth, and then the water ladle. This is used to purify oneself before worship.

Ema used for prayers. A person writes a prayer on the back of it and the priestesses will pray throughout the year for them. They are removed at the start of the new year and burned in a ritual.

Found the Sailor Moon ones! Unfortunately the Sailor Moon ema were not sold at the shrine.

Below is a link for the one I did purchase from the miko.

Mini Inari shrine to worship the goddess Inari associated with prosperity, rice, agriculture, industry, craftsmanship, smiths, agriculture, and tea.

Crystal version with the main shrine building the background.

Forgot about this scene!

Some more Galaxia

We met a really sweet lady at the shrine and offered to take our picture. She was also practicing her English with us. We were told today was a lucky day and it meant big money.

Maybe the big money was related to all the money spent at the Sailor Moon Museum in the morning? 😂😂

Full view of the shrine. It is smaller than I thought it would be.

The building to side is where I bought a charm from the miko. I didn't want to take a picture when I was there since she was standing right there.

Side view of a building, I believe is used for storage.

Next time I should try to stand in this exact spot.

Definitely need to stand there next time.

Building where the mikoshi is stored when not in use for festivals.

Picture of the mikoshi at the shrine that houses the deity of the shrine.

Notice asking for donations to help restore the shrine.

Close up of pictures.

Moon. Mystic Spiral Tarot.

Themes and Keywords: Illusions. Subconscious realms. End of the zodiac. Witchcraft. The Crone. Taboo. Cycles, especially women’s cycles. Fear of the feminine powers. Fluctuations. Changability/unreliability. Madness. Paradox. Sleep. Dreams true and false. Illness. Non-ordinary realities. Altered consciousness. Astrology/Element At the end of the zodiac we come to mutable water, Pisces the Fish. Mutable water is morphing, impressionable. Here at the last of the signs we come to the “dustbin” where unfinished karma and all of the accumulated debris of the human experience accumulates. Secrets swim in its waters. Pisces is the sign of the subconscious realms, the home of mediums, mystics, mediators, and monastics. Extremely sensitive to the currents of the emotional realm, Pisces are receivers of every vibration. Pisces is a sign of contemplatives, clairvoyants, and other travelers of the subliminal realms like artists of visions, music, theatre, and film. Pisces’s motto is “I believe.” This can be faith or folly. Pisces is also known as a psychic sponge, needing to retreat from the world to purify itself. It has a tendency to escapism, avoidance, and overindulgent wallowing in senses. Temple or tavern? Serve or suffer? The fish can be slippery and water is wet. Pisces is hard to understand. Its glyph is two fishes tied together, swimming in different directions. The one that swims downstream is said to be the finite personality, while the other swims upstream and is the infinite soul of cosmic consciousness. Which fish will lead and which will submit to the stream? Jupiter rules Pisces, making them intrepid psychic explorers of the dream world and subconscious realms. Venus is exalted in the sign, giving universal love and compassion. Nebulous Neptune, the modern ruler, is the “higher octave” of Venus, allowing for the highest forms of self-sacrifice and transcendence, as well as themes of imagination, inspiration, fantasy, and deceit. Mythology/Alchemy The dog and wolf of the Waite-Smith card become Anubis and the older deity Wepwawet in the Thoth deck. Both of these Egyptian gods have ties with the underworld and with secrets, thresholds, and secret places. Anubis is the Greek name for the Egyptian god Anpu, who was shown either in canine form or as a man with the head of a black dog. He was called “Foremost of the Westerners” (the dead) and “Master of Secrets.” Wepwawet, also known as Upuaut, was depicted in jackal or wolf form or as a man with a jackal’s head. They are often confused with each other. Both were symbolically colored black and carried the was-sceptre with the head of the Set animal. Both were considered either sons of Ra, of Set, or of Osiris with either Isis or Nephthys. Both are involved with leading the departed souls to Ma’at’s Hall of Two Truths for the judgment and weighing of the heart test.

Together they are the loyal dog and the wily jackal. Anubis is the “Guardian of the Way” to the underworld and Wepwawet is the “Opener of the Way.” As guardian, Anubis is a protective influence over more than just souls. As opener, Wepwawet opens more than just the underworld, but also possibilities and paths external and internal. Wepwawet also opened the way for the sun as he rode in the prow of the solar barque, and he is considered a revealer of religious mysteries and secret initiations. Susan T. Chang

Me: I want to mod responsibly and not break the game in Skyrim.

Also me: Hey, this dragon skulls mod creates an infinite loop for leveling smithing. Neat. I'm going to use the Multiple Followers Framework mod to make the Restoration Trainer from the college a follower, and have her nearby while I get my smithing to 100 with minimal effort, and train Restoration every time I level up.

----

The loop mod adds Dragon Skulls for displaying places and general nonsense, which made me think "neat!", and I got it for the novelty.

But it ALSO adds a recipe to turn Dragon Skulls, valued at 1000, into two Dragon Bone, valued at 500 each, and vice versa.

It's an infinite crafting loop with items equal in value and experience to Orcish armor.

Not to toot my own horn, but my Water Baron mod for Fallout 4 was specifically designed to prevent such loops, and minimize XP gain (it turns purified water into Misc "shipments" you can sell without carrying around a bunch of water).

(Incidentally, I'm always going to use that follower mod now because it is SO NICE to make trainers follow you instead of going back to them every level)

Fullness of the Spirit — His Baptism, His Best!

For John truly baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days hence.

Acts 1:5 There are three things in life, and I notice that many people are satisfied with only one. There is blessing in justification; in sanctification; and in the baptism of the Holy Spirit.

Salvation is a wonderful thing, and we know it. Sanctification is a process that takes you on to a higher height with God.

Salvation, sanctification and the fullness of the Spirit are processesAny number of people are satisfied with “good” — that is justification or salvation.

Other people are satisfied with “better” — that is a sanctified life, purified by God. Other people are satisfied with the “best” — that is the fulless of God with revelation from on high.

So I come to you with the fullness of God in the Holy Spirit through His baptism. I come not with good, but better; not with better, but with best. Continue to grow and improve spiritually.

Keep going on with God.

Pray this closing prayer today:

Heavenly Father, I thank Thee for the goodness of Thy salvation and the going on with Thee through sanctification, the baptism of Thy Spirit and the fullness of Thee in my total being. Amen.☕️Smith Wigglesworth

Imbolc: Midpoint Between Winter & Spring

History

Imbolc is a celebration of the end of winter nearing and light returning, as it is the midpoint between winter and spring. Imbolc represents that the hardest part of winter is over. 

Imbolc is a time to plant seeds in the ground to watch them grow (weather and climate permitting), or plant ideas to see them germinate in the mind. Flowers soak up the wet Earth from all the snow and ready to bloom. Imbolc represents a time of rebirth, where we are awakening from the darkness of winter.

One goddess the Celts worshiped during Imbolc was Brigid, associated with poetry and fertility, and activities such as tending to livestock, healing, smithing, arts and crafts. Her role as the fertility goddess was important during Imbolc, but her healing powers and protective sense were important too. Like many mother goddesses she can preside over life and death. She is thought by many to be the Celtic equivalent to Roman goddess Minerva and Greek goddess Athena.

Brigid has a strong connection with the sun, which was important as Imbolc reflects the sun’s return. Brigid represented the light half of the year, and her presence was revered during Imbolc. On Imbolc Eve, she was said to visit the most virtuous homes and bless all those who slept in them, so people would leave pieces of clothing, food or other tokens at the entrance of their home. Offerings were also brought to waterways and wells that were named in Brigid’s honor. 

How can I celebrate Imbolc?

Like many Wheel of the Year celebrations, Imbolc included bonfires. These were symbolic of the sun’s return. Rather than a huge bonfire at the center of celebrations, this celebration was more about hearth and home. Each home in the community would burn a fire through the night. You can honor this tradition by lighting candles around your house or having a bonfire in the crisp winter air.

Plan or plant your garden. Take time to plan the garden rotation or plant seeds.

Go on a walk in nature. Find any sign of spring that you can! Some early blooming plants have already started their journey out of the darkness.

Visit a waterway. Traditionally this was a time for visiting holy water to purify and bring fertility to dreams. If you find clean water, splash some on yourself as you set intentions to cleanse and purify. Thank the place you visit and pick up any trash you might see nearby.

Spring Cleaning Ritual. Cleanse your space with salt or smoke to make room for more energy. Open the windows and doors to let changing air come through your home. Or take the literal approach and start spring cleaning. Clear out unnecessary clutter or old memories. Make room in your house and body for new energy that spring brings.

Create an altar for Imbolc.

Gather fresh herbs or sprouts for your altar. Have candles, since Imbolc is very much about light. Brigid’s cross, corn dolls, cauldrons, white flowers, seeds, sun wheels and a dish of snow are great for this time of the year.

More associated herbs and flowers are:  acorns, angelica, basil, bay, blackberry, chamomile, crocus, jasmine, lavender, rosemary

Colors: Brown, pink, green, yellow, red, white

Stones and Crystals: Amethyst, bloodstone, ruby, turquoise

Animals: Burrowing animals, bears, deer, lamb, sheep

Imbolc is associated with awakenings, blessings, fertility, fresh starts, home & hearth, hope, new life, protection, rebirth, reuniting, truth, wishing. It’s a great time to do spellwork that might correspond with these things. 

Set your intentions. Since Imbolc isn’t long after New Year, it’s a great time to look deeper into your goals and intentions for the coming spring. Meditate or journal with your intentions and think about what you want to tend and grow this year in yourself and your world.

How to Experience Local Culture While Staying in a Luxury Villa in Bali

Bali is a paradise filled with vibrant culture, stunning landscapes, and warm people. Staying in a luxury villa allows you to enjoy five-star amenities while diving deep into the local traditions and lifestyle. The growing trend of luxury villa stays reshapes how travelers connect with destinations, especially in culturally rich areas like Bali.

Beyond the Villa Walls: Exploring Balinese Culture

Discover Local Markets

Immerse yourself in the vibrant atmosphere of traditional markets like Ubud's Pasar Seni, where art, food, and local crafts collide. In 2019, Ubud welcomed over three million tourists, and many chose to stay in luxury villas that offer easy access to culture. You can spend an unforgettable day wandering through stalls, meeting artisans, and tasting local delicacies.

Attend Traditional Ceremonies

Participating in local temple ceremonies, such as Galungan and Kuningan, is a unique way to experience Balinese spirituality. Dress appropriately (sarong and sash are often required) and be respectful of customs. Witnessing a ceremony can be a moving experience, providing insight into the heart of Balinese life.

Engage with Local Artisans

Visit workshops where you can see traditional crafts like wood carving, silver smithing, or batik making. A well-known artisan, I Made Sudiarsa, offers workshops in Ubud that attract both locals and tourists. Meeting the artists can deepen your appreciation for their work and craftsmanship.

Culinary Delights: Savor Balinese Flavors

Dine at Local Warungs

Eating at a local "warung" can offer a contrast to dining in a high-end restaurant. Enjoy authentic Balinese dishes like Nasi Goreng and Sate Lilit. Warungs allow you to taste real flavors in a relaxed setting, often surrounded by friendly locals.

Wellness and Spirituality: Connect with Balinese Traditions

Experience a Traditional Balinese Massage
