I go into shrine space a minimum of twice a lunar month.
Today, there was the giving of thanks for the love in my life, the comfort and support and strength that surrounds like the sweetness of the incense smoke; there was confession to fear and difficulty, pouring it out like the pouring of the water libations.
I've threaded my studies into these rituals, adding kala ritual to the things I do do there; as I speak to the gods, I come to know what it is that I need to unbind. I rarely know ahead of time.
Today as I spoke of fear one of the cats curled up in my lap, what amount of lap there is as I kneel. I took the cup and breathed out the things that needed to be made kala; purify me, make me true.
I feel more aligned, even if my hip is not. (Ow.)
