Given Reality: embodiment, the other-than-human, our animality.
Invented Reality: Nations, money, etc.
Why do we give so much attention to what's been made up and so little to what's given? Maybe it's partly a distraction 🤔. The result is what we might call an 'industrialized mentality'.

THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK:

He must rise betimes who hath few to serve him,
and see to his work himself;
who sleeps at morning is hindered much,
to the keen is wealth half-won.

Because Mal Ojo often gets conflated (combined-confused) with Mal Aire, I thought I’d make some distinctions between the two, so you can properly cleanse yourself from these nasty energies.

I had the displeasure of dealing with these types due to me being CHamoru.

Despite what folkish Heathens think, I am not at odds between my culture and my faith.

Folkish Heathens also like co-opting Indigenous phrases and languages, btw, so watch out.

Fuck Folkism.

Inclusivity is the norm for modern Heathenry.
It is an aberration to gatekeep the religion for whites.
It will be better for us all when the AFA, Irminfolk Kindred, Jotun’s Bane Kindred, and like organizations are tossed on the burn pile of history. #heathensky #heathen #inclusive
