Small disclaimer before I go on: this is all personal experience. What I do is a me thing only.

So, those yearly checks only started last year, after reaching the 5-year mark. I hit a point where I felt I was missing something, like I’ve met a dead end and wasn’t sure how to evolve from there. It was a time where I reached out to Dionysus to let him know I was going through a small “crisis of faith” and needed direction. 

Not only did he give me a direction and something to work on, but he made it clear this was long-term work and we’d check on this later. Because this checkup happened between December and January, which also fits with his most active time of the year, it made sense to keep that timeframe. 

So that’s for the general context. I did the meeting last weekend (that’s why I didn’t post), which essentially boils down to having a long divination session. Here are the main points we went through: 

1. Previous year

Summary of the previous year (what has been done, what has been learnt...)

Overall satisfaction on his part and what could have been done better

2. Plans for the next year

General direction he has in mind

What’s the beneft of said direction

What I should be focusing on worship-wise

3. Oath

General opinion on the matter

What he’d like to see included in a new oath

Dionysus has been very unconcerned about the oath part tbh. I think I can confidently say that my old oath doesn’t bind me anymore. We’re not talking about renewing this one, rather than creating a new one altogether. I’m hoping to get this done by the end of the month but I still need to work on it. Oaths are personal in the sense that they are not necessary in any way, so it’s all about making the personal choice (and challenge) to live up to one. They are essentially self-curses and need to be carefully put together to avoid accidental breachings. It’s important to remember a deity has no interest in smiting a devotee, but an oath puts both devotee and deity in a position where this is a risk. This is why it’s in our common interest to thread lightly here. 

4. Extras

I know that not many people thinks about these things right off the top of their heads but, has anyone here thought about multiverses? Like the idea that there could be parallel worlds to ours that we could discover by cutting through space and time??? Maybe there is a me in another universe that is eating cereal right now instead of looking at my tumblr?? Crazy shit man. Does each universe have a different outcome of my life? maybe the universe chooses what I say and do because otherwise i’ll cross paths with the me from another universe. We have no freedoms because each individual thing we do is carefully placed by the universe. All we need to do to get there is create a tesseract, a cut through the space-time continuum, to be able to see all the different multiverses all at once. But of course this is a theory. It’s times like these that you just can’t stop. Can’t rock the body without the body rock. Got schemes, schematics, blue prints on file. You’ve got to have a dream to make it all worthwhile. So I take my time and realize, I wonder what it is I hope to find. I don’t mean to brag, I don’t mean to boast, but i’m intercontinental when I eat french toast. Adrock with the new addition. Gettin’ on down for the year 2000. A slight distraction can get you paid. And when it comes to that type shit I paved the way. BBoys to the early morn, BGirls be rockin on and on, BGirls to the break of dawn. BBoys be rockin on and on
