The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.

I said

Will you still love me
When the sun no longer grazes my cheeks
And the sparkle in my eye fades with the grey winter snow
And all things around me are slipping into the cold

And he said

My darling
That is when I will love you the most

Persephone’s Winter, by Rowan Aura 05/27/15 (via rantingsofanairwitch)

For a star to be born, there is one thing that must happen: a gaseous nebula must collapse. So collapse. Crumble.This is not your destruction. This is your birth.

Perhaps one of the best aspects of Kemeticism is it considers you are a good person to begin with. You aren’t a sinner who requires a savior in order to be considered good.

(via intaier)

When people die, they cannot be replaced. They leave holes that cannot be filled, for it is the fate — the genetic and neural fate — of every human being to be a unique individual, to find his own path, to live his own life, to die his own death.

Oliver Sacks (via funeralfarm)

what is so appealing to you about gods brought down to earth? what is so appealing about golden ichor dripping and burning feathers and cracked marble statues and the tears of and in divinity? it’s not romantic the eight hundredth time. it’s not respectful. it doesn’t wrench my heart. it makes me love my Gods and the perfect things about Them and it makes me regret that there are worlds where divinity must be brought down. what is wrong with the holy? nothing that is for you to decide.

i am tired of poems about broken gods ii // r.s.b. (via falanx)

they want you babydoll sweet;
with faces like hearts they claim all for their own
and full lips that just can’t seem to say the word no.
you’re their main course tonight, sweetheart
– and you’re a dish best served warm.

but you are meant for more than a place on a shelf.

be unforgiving and cruel,
just like the world raised you to be.

rip that crown from his head.
claw scratches down snowy cheeks.
scream until your throat bleeds as you cry out for reverence.
let him know that gods demand sacrifice
and your altar has been empty far to long.

The king is also able to nurture the inhabitants of the netherworld by shifting gender: celestial beings ‘recognize you in this your name Anubis. The gods will not descend against you in this your name of Milk-goddess’ (text 82). Hesat is later regarded as the daughter of Anubis, and in the Pyramid Texts the imywt-emblem, always closely associated with the jackal deity, is born from Hesat (text 116).
