How will I meet the challenge of the coming years? Like Seneca under Nero. 🔥🙏🏻🔥

Today was a very hard day. But, it was fertile ground for me to practice the Virtues. Amor fati!

“If you are distressed by anything external, the pain is not due to the thing itself, but to your estimate of it; and this you have the power to revoke at any moment.” - Marcus Aurelius

Got told I was not a “True Stoic”because I am a polytheist. Does this mean I have arrived? 😂

We have enough lists of what planets do what and what herb is good for this or that. I want a Paganism that teaches me how to live.

The Trump administration is what happens when idiot Virtue and weaponized Virtue have a baby.

This is a gentle reminder that within your inner citadel, your spirit, your soul, no one can truly harm you. No one can take that from you. Your guiding principle, that inner Fire, always burns, and will always guide you.

On this day,
may I act with Wisdom, Vision, and Piety.
On this day,
May I act with Courage, Integrity, and Perseverance.
On this day,
may I act with Hospitality, Moderation, and Fertility,
with Justice over all.
May it be so!

The goal: to live in accordance with nature. To live in harmony with the natural order, yes, but also to align our character with the guiding principle of the Cosmos, which is reason.

If someone were to ask me what the first resource I would recommend for a beginning Pagan, I would say anything that helps you develop a code of ethics. This sets you on the path to living excellently, which will begin your journey to living in accord with the Cosmos.

In ADF, we follow the Nine Virtues. I have added a tenth in my own practice, which is Justice. Justice is right-action, and once we step onto that path, the rest of the Virtues open before us so that they may enrich our lives.

Tonight I sit with a heavy grief at the passing of a dear friend. No words come to me but these: “Don’t behave as if you are destined to live forever. What’s fated hangs over you. As long you live and while you can, become good now.” - Marcus Aurelius

Life is not obligated to be kind and peaceful to you. But let this be a relief, because you are not relying on externals to keep your peace. You can embody these values and life shall transform before your eyes.

Today I learned a former co-worker’s son was hit by a stray bullet and is currently in critical condition.

Memento mori. Life can change in an instant. Do good today.

Just found out two people who were dear to me passed away within the past year. Another reminder that life can change quickly and tomorrow is not a guarantee. Memento mori.

14 years ago today I went through an apartment fire. It is from this event that I learned the value of “amor fati.” From these bitter ashes came the sweetest fruit, for it allowed me to turn my life around and take it back. Gratitude always.

Another turning comes and goes. The waves of life mount, crest, and pass. There will be an ebb, and there shall be more waves. Cling to reason as your rock, and no wave will consume you.
