Born to be, ALL that I am.
“Theologians may quarrel, but the mystics of the world speak the same language.”
— Meister Eckhart
There are ones who see, but do not ‘see’ or perceive.
There are fewer still, the ones who know, and discern...
When children are told to not believe in shadows, or imaginary beings from other realms, and spaces within their perceived reality.
We witness, and see the power of what they naturally harness become diminished.
Obscured.
Taken.
•
We know, yet we are told not to ‘know’, or that we are too young to understand. Too inexperienced to have a semblance of what is fact or fiction. We were told to never discuss or learn about that which is hidden. Yet it is our nature!
•
When we are aware, perceptive, and able to discern; we are a FORCE.. We take the power that others attempt to hold over us. The ability to control time, space, visions, dreams, thoughts, and beyond.

I see myself when I was a child. I see myself gazing into a mirror, and knowing that there is, and always was, MORE than what my eyes could ‘see’. The movies in my mind were real, and they showed me many wonders. Flashes of beasts, wolf men, creatures shapeshifting. Beings of light and sound. Spirits made of trees and moss.
•
The sky was alive with fire and color, water and wind. As a child I called the east, to summon her to join the west. The winds in my fingers. I moved clouds that were swollen with rain. I understood the power of prayer, intention, and spoken words. They still exist. My survival instinct through abuse and trauma was guided by all of who I am. Existing at all time and space, all at once. I am present, and all pretenses of time. I am exactly what I need to be or desire.
Before I was cast out.
Before I called myself a WITCH.
Before they called me a heathen.
Before all of it.
I was born to be, all that I am.
