I just finished reading a Blog Post about one Heathen's practice for MidSummer, and as always, it has Me thinking of My own personal practice. I'm slowly working through building My personal Calender, and that includes fleshing out My Holidays. Of course, with Sól being My greatest enemy among the Norse Gods, I find trying to navigate any sort of MidSummer practice from a Norse perspective to be a bit daunting at times.

Also, speaking of Sól: If Anyone had told Me ten years ago that Sól, not Frigg, would end up being My greatest enemy among the Norse Gods, I would have laughed My ass off straight into breathlessness, but here We are!

Anyway, not for the first time I've thought about trying to do something solar for a Norse Holiday and include either or both Frej and Freja instead. I'm not sure how I would go about doing that, but I think I need to set down with either or both of Them, see if it's something They would be comfortable being a part of, and see what might come from those possibilities.

I mean, yeah, I have a hell of a healthier Summer Solstice practice on the Irish side of My spirituality, considering that Áine is one of My primary Deities, but I'd like to find a way to do something for the Norse side of My practice, as I try My best to balance all of the sides of My practice as best as I can.

Ugh, I've been awake since about 06:30 this morning due to the cold. The tempature here dropped to 51 degrees last nightt, and that wasn't fun at all! So, I got about five and a half to six hours of sleep. Which isn't bad, but I wish I had more. I'd love to go back to sleep but that's not a good idea because I have a ritual I need to prepare for today.

Today is when the Shadow Circle of Luna's MidSummer ritual. At least I don't have to host this ritual, unlike the Traveler of the Gateway ritual I'm hosting this upcoming Saturday. Then again, Shadow Circle of Luna, unlike the Travelers of the Gateway, don't take turns hosting rituals among Our members.

I've lost Clients before for what I consider some of the silliest of reasons, most of which was because I don't offer a particular service, or because I don't practice a particular technique. I've lost Clients before because I don't believe in Karma, I don't believe in the Akashic Records, because I don't utilize Crystals in My practice, because I'm not a Tarot Reader, because I don't practice, let alone offer Reiki. The list goes on and on.

But I think this might be the first time, or at the most, the second time in My life I lost a Client because They don't believe a Blind Person can practice Divination, let alone practice it professionally. I mean, I have accessible Divination sets, which I tried to explain to this Person, but They weren't willing to listen. Alright, fine, I'm adding You to the list of Clients I don't want to ever work with or for.

I just received an email notification from Tumblr that this Blog is nine years old, as of today. I don't have too many feelings or thoughts about this fact at the moment, except that I think it's wild in a way. I mean, this Blog is actually My second Blog here on Tumblr, as I had to delete My first one after it became extremely glitchy and generally unusable.

Also, 2016 was a terrible time for Me. I mean, I had been back home for a year at that point, and My health was terrible to say the least. I thank any and all of You I met during those early years here on Tumblr, especially if We're still in contact. I know that I miss one friend who is no longer on this site; I hope Ze is doing well, wherever Zey are in life!
