The 8th Principle of Unitarian Universalism

The 8th Principle of Unitarian Universalism

Borrowed with permission from Rev. Paula Cole-Jones. I’ve definitely been getting more into UUism lately. I’m joining groups and reading books, and I even volunteered to be my church’s Collecting Treasurer, a role I take over on July 1st. (Do I know what I’m doing? Heck, no. When has that ever stopped me?) One of the groups concerns promoting the 8th Principle and getting it passed in our…

Reflections on the Unyear and Wep Ronpet 2022

Reflections on the Unyear and Wep Ronpet 2022

It’s definitely been an Unyear. An image of clay pots. Source: unknown. This Unyear has been a little weird, but I guess a lot of them have for me. On July 20, I found out that I had been exposed to COVID so I got tested. Well, the COVID part of the test wasn’t actually run so I had to get retested, and eventually the results came back negative. I was also negative for RSV and both flu A and B,…

Praying in times of emergency

“God is not your step-and-fetch-it,” my husband would sometimes say when he was a believer. So why do I pray to Bast only when I have a sick cat? My statue of Bast, sitting on my altar. Since my conversion (the 17th anniversary of which I just celebrated), I have had kind of a distanced relationship with Bast. It was Aset, Hathor and Nephthys who came to my rescue that night. I confess I was…

"A problem for the theist"

I’m going to go somewhere a little risky in this one. This is just stuff to think about. Screenshot of episode 28.12 of The Atheist Experience, which aired on YouTube March 24, 2024. I was watching The Atheist Experience with my husband a few weeks ago. (Okay, I was tuning in and out because my interest waxed and waned.) And my brain caught on a phrase that, when I went back and watched that…

A prayer to Aset in the Unyear 2020

A prayer to Aset in the Unyear 2020

In my locality, the Unyear started on Saturday, but I have been singularly unmotivated this year to do anything for it. I did rite on Wesir’s Day (Saturday) and that’s about it. But I did find the energy to write this prayer to my patron, on Her birthday.

A dose of realism for Earth Day

A dose of realism for Earth Day

Hi, guys. I had given some thought to a post talking about Geb, the earth god, and Ma’at on Earth Day – it does happen to be the New Moon today, and I had promised to carry on the “Making Ma’at” tradition into this year, so I was going to do rite, and maybe post about it…and then something happened, something that I’m not ready to write about specifically. So let me just post a poem of mine from…
