Many of us have our own preferences for the crystals we work with. If you are called to use crystals, I encourage everyone to do some research on your own and to trust your intuition as the energy from some crystals may resonate with you more so than others. I recommend the tried and true Crystal Bible, by Judy Hall and Crystals for Beginners or Crystals for Healing, by Karen Frazier. Here is a compiled a list of a few of the top "go-to" crystals and some very basic and high-level information to go along with them below. This is a general list, not my own.
Here are a few go to crystals to reference...
Clear Quartz:
• Metaphysical Properties: Amplification, clarity, and energy enhancement.
• Healing Uses: Balancing all chakras, clearing energy blockages, and enhancing psychic abilities.
• Common Uses: Meditation, energy cleansing, amplifying intentions, and enhancing other crystals.
• Care: Cleanse under running water, moonlight, or with other cleansing crystals. Recharge in sunlight or with amethyst clusters.
Rose Quartz:
• Metaphysical Properties: The stone of unconditional love and compassion, promoting self-love, emotional healing, and inner peace.
• Healing Uses: Balancing the heart chakra, soothing emotional wounds, and fostering forgiveness and empathy.
• Common Uses: Attracting love, harmonizing relationships, self-love rituals, and emotional healing.
• Care: Cleanse with gentle methods like moonlight, sage smoke, or visualization. Avoid prolonged direct sunlight.
Selenite/Satin Spar:
• Metaphysical Properties: A powerful energy cleanser and amplifier, connecting to higher realms, promoting mental clarity, and spiritual insight.
• Healing Uses: Clearing and charging other crystals, enhancing mental clarity, and facilitating spiritual communication.
• Common Uses: Meditation, clearing energy fields, and promoting a peaceful environment.
• Care: Selenite is self-cleansing and charges other crystals. Avoid exposure to water, as it can dissolve.
Citrine:
• Metaphysical Properties: Attracting abundance, confidence, and positivity.
• Healing Uses: Activating the solar plexus chakra, boosting self-esteem, and aiding in manifesting goals and prosperity.
• Common Uses: Attracting wealth, enhancing self-confidence, and boosting creativity.
• Care: Cleanse in sunlight or moonlight, or by placing it on a bed of quartz crystals.
Amethyst:
• Metaphysical Properties: Enhancing intuition, spirituality, and mental clarity. Calming the mind and promoting inner peace.
• Healing Uses: Balancing the crown and third eye chakras, aiding in overcoming addiction, and supporting emotional healing.
• Common Uses: Meditation, enhancing spiritual connection, and promoting restful sleep.
• Care: Cleanse under running water or with gentle methods. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, as it may fade the color.
Tiger's Eye:
• Metaphysical Properties: A protective stone enhancing courage, self-confidence, and personal power.
• Healing Uses: Balancing the solar plexus chakra, aiding in decision-making, and protecting against negative energies.
• Common Uses: Boosting confidence, motivation, and overcoming challenges.
• Care: Cleanse by running under water, smudging with sage, or with sunlight. Recharge as needed.
Moonstone:
• Metaphysical Properties: Linked to the moon and feminine energy, enhancing intuition, emotional balance, and spiritual insight.
• Healing Uses: Balancing the sacral and crown chakras, promoting fertility, and aiding in emotional healing.
• Common Uses: Enhancing intuition, connecting with the divine feminine, and promoting emotional harmony.
• Care: Cleanse with gentle methods due to its sensitive energy, and recharge under moonlight.
Carnelian:
• Metaphysical Properties: Boosting creativity, vitality, and motivation. Associated with the sacral chakra.
• Healing Uses: Balancing the sacral chakra, enhancing energy, and aiding in overcoming self-doubt.
• Common Uses: Boosting creativity, motivation, and self-confidence.
• Care: Cleanse under running water and recharge in sunlight or with carnelian clusters.
Obsidian:
• Metaphysical Properties: A protective stone aiding in grounding, transformation, and self-discovery.
• Healing Uses: Clearing negative energies, balancing the root chakra, and supporting inner transformation.
• Common Uses: Shielding against negativity, promoting self-discovery, and aiding in shadow work.
• Care: Regularly cleanse by smudging with smoke or running water.
Black Tourmaline:
• Metaphysical Properties: A powerful protection stone that wards off negativity, cleanses energy, and promotes grounding.
• Healing Uses: Shields against negative energies, balances the root chakra, and aids in promoting self-confidence.
• Common Uses: Protection against negative energies, grounding, and energy purification.

alice creel isn’t karen wheeler- but she might be somebody else: an analysis of alice creel and connie frazier and jefferson airplane’s white rabbit
So, I think there’s a solid chance that “Connie Frazier,” might be Alice Creel.
Tumblr media
Alice was 15 in 1959, and therefore was born in 1944, which would make her 39 in 1983.
Connie’s age isn’t confirmed anywhere, unfortunately, but the actress who plays her, Catherine Dyer, was 58 as of 2016, when S1 was filmed. Admittedly, this is a fairly large gap between what Alice’s age should be vs what Catherine Dyer’s age is, however, Mike Wheeler is also supposed to be fourteen, so I think that the ages of the actors vs the characters in ST has a bit of wiggle room.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I’m not just basing this off of looks, though- the name “Alice,” literally plays in a scene where Connie’s face is on screen/it’s focused on Connie.
The lyric “go ask Alice,” plays during this scene, and even cuts to Connie RIGHT as the name “Alice,” is sung, having focused on Benny for the “go ask,” part of the line.
Tumblr media
And prior to this scene at the door, we also have the “call Alice,” lyric that plays, which, right as it plays Benny says “Whoever it is, I’ll tell them to go away real quick.” The fact that the name “Alice,” plays right after Benny talks about going to see who is at the door is suspicious, almost like it’s Alice at the door.
Tumblr media
As well, the full line for the “call alice,” part goes “call alice- when she was just small.” And Alice Creel was small/15 years old the first/last time we saw her (1959) but now is not small anymore/is grown up.
Tumblr media
That’s two instances of Connie being referred to while the name “Alice,” plays in the show. The first time, it literally cuts to Connie’s face as the name “Alice,” is sung, and the second time, Benny talks about seeing who is at the door (Connie) while we hear Connie knocking and the name “Alice,” is sung once again.
It’s also interesting that Benny literally called Connie/called social services and Connie/the lab seem to have been listening in on the call and interfered. And if Connie is Alice, then Benny literally called Alice.
Also, it almost seems like Connie’s has her mind wiped- she’s extremely focused on her mission, seems to have little personality or interests outside of it, and kills Benny in cold blood with basically zero hesitation.
And look at how Connie lays on the ground, bleeding from her eyes, compared to how Alice laid on the ground, supposedly bleeding from her eyes.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
It’s also interesting to me that they chose to revisit Connie’s death in S4, the same season where we’re introduced to Alice Creel for the first time. Sullivan hands Owens a picture of Connie’s death when talking about El- almost like ST production is giving us a subtle reminder of what Connie’s death looked like and how eerily similar it was to Alice’s “death.”
I’m not 100% sure if Connie is Alice yet, but the parallels are definitely interesting, and if Brenner picked up Henry from the Creel house that night (which he did), then I don’t think it’s a stretch for him to have grabbed Alice too. What if Henry is part of what happens when MKultra brainwashing fails, but Connie/Alice is what happens when it succeeds? Not the powers part of it persay but simply the *brainwashing* part and destruction and rebuilding of the mind that was involved in the real mkultra. (The two main steps for mind control were thought to be to wipe then mind snd then rebuild it, which likely would’ve been what happened to Alice). And even though Alice seems dead at the Creel house, there’s so much weirdness with all of those scenes and the position of her body changes throughout various retellings and she seems like her eyes may not even be bleeding in some of them- she may also have regenerative healing like Henry (and likely like Virginia) which would explain her survival.
And then we also get this scene- look at the curtains. We have the orange curtain behind Connie and the orange curtain behind Virginia, and we have both Connie and Virginia wearing orange plaid and they both have similar hairstyles, and the blanket behind Connie is the same sort of orange and white colours as Virginia’s shirt and the framing with the OTS shot of Victor in Virginia’s screenshot vs the OTS shot of Scott in Connie’s screenshot- if Connie is Alice, then it would make sense to parallel grown-up Alice to her mother (Virginia).
Tumblr media
It’s also interesting to me that they chose scott for this scene- scott, who would’ve been at school at the same time as Henry and likely would’ve met Alice at some point, but wouldn’t recognize her anymore, especially because she’s supposed to be dead.

How do you keep track of what all the crystals and herbs do? And how do you find out in the first place?
I apologize it took me so long to reply to you. Times have been rough in the kingdom. BUT, I will say that I learned most of my information from purchasing and reading books that specialize in herbs or crystals. Three book recommendations I have for you are "Crystals for Beginners" - Karen Frazier, "Candle Magic" - Madame Pamita, and "Encyclopedia of Natural Magic" - John Greer
All three of those books should provide you with basically all the information you need about herbs, crystals, and using candle magic. I hope this helps!
Blessed Be 🔮🌙

Hey friends! Here are a few ways to embrace the magic of Crystal Magic:
🔮 Choose Your Crystals: Select crystals that resonate with your intention and desired outcome. Each crystal has its own unique properties and energies, so choose ones that align with your goals.
🌟 Cleanse and Charge Your Crystals: Purify your crystals by rinsing them under running water, smoke cleansing, or placing them in sunlight or moonlight. Then, charge them with your intention by holding them in your hands and visualizing them being filled with light and energy.
📿 Work with Crystal Grids: Create intricate patterns or grids with your crystals to amplify their energies and manifest your intentions. Place them in geometric formations and activate them with your intention and focus.
💎 Wear or Carry Crystals: Wear crystals as jewelry or carry them in your pocket or purse to benefit from their energy throughout the day. Choose crystals that correspond to your goals and intentions to keep their energy close to you at all times.
🕯️ Incorporate Crystals into Rituals: Use crystals as focal points in your rituals and ceremonies, placing them on your altar or holding them in your hands as you work with their energy. You can also place them around your space to create a sacred and protected environment.
There are many good resources of information for crystals. Here are some of my favorites:
Books:
“Crystals for Beginners: The Guide to Get Started with the Healing Power of Crystals” by Karen Frazier. This book covers crystal basics, including how to choose, cleanse, program, and use them for different purposes.
“The Crystal Bible” by Judy Hall. A comprehensive reference guide that provides information on various crystals and their properties.
"Cunningham's Encyclopedia of Crystal, Gem & Metal Magic" by Scott Cunningham. This guide to elemental Earth magic helps you harness the power of over 100 gems and metals for divinations, spells, tarot readings, and more!
YouTube Channels:
HearthWitch
TheWitchOfWonderlust
Ivy the Occultist
Feel free to leave your favorite books, blogs, videos, podcasts, etc. below!
Whether you're a crystal collector, a healer, or simply someone who loves the beauty of gemstones, crystal magic offers a profound and transformative way to connect with the Earth's treasures and harness their magical energies. So dive into the world of crystals, explore their mysteries, and let their magic guide you on your journey! 🔮🌿

Crystal Safety
"In general, working with crystals is relatively safe. However, some crystals contain substances (such as aluminum, copper, sulfur, fluorine, strontium, or asbestos) that are toxic to humans, so do not put them in the bathtub or make crystal elixir with them. It's also best to was your hands when you've finished holding them. These crystals include:
Aquamarine (contains aluminum)
Black tourmaline (contains aluminum)
Celestine (contains strontium)
Cinnabar (contains mercury)
Dioptase (contains copper)
Emerald (contains aluminum)
Fluorite (contains aluminum)
Garnet (contains aluminum)

Glad's Book List
I wrote a post recently about my history (normally I'd link it but I don't want to be narcissistic), and realized that I've read a fair few occult books over the years. So here's the list; I'll keep updating it as I find more books in my various libraries and book stashes.
Quick note before getting into this list--not everything I've read will make it. Just the stuff I read and recommend others parse through. For example, I have intentionally omitted my studies in Kabbalah to discourage others from unintentionally appropriating.
But by "parse through", I truly mean that. My path has meandered through several schools of thought and wandered into appropriative territory at times (I constantly strive to correct any appropriation in my practice that gets brought to my attention). Maybe about 20% of each book makes it into my current path.

can you elaborate on your the wheelers are creels theory ?
Sure! This is one I’ve been partnering with @aemiron-main on so like…I trust him to fill in anything I might have missed in this recap!!
Essentially, we have a newspaper from the Indianapolis Gazette that’s shown on screen in the show. It lists Victor Creel, his wife Alice, daughter Virginia, and son Edward Creel.
So the “Alice is Karen” truthers? Close, but not quite.
Karen DOES look like a Creel, but not Alice. Alice has naturally blonde hair and blue eyes. Karen is bottle-blonde with brown eyes. She looks like and is heavily paralleled to Virginia.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Alice looks more like Connie Frazier, the suspiciously blank agent who hangs out around Brenner.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Nancy, Mike, and Holly also look suspiciously Creel-ish:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Were Alice (mother) and Virginia (sister) to have not died, but instead have been wiped by Brenner via MKULTRA and set up with new lives/kept in Hawkins…it would tie up a lot of loose ends (i.e. why Nancy was chosen to be Vecna’s messenger, why Mike is confirmed as being able to sense El in the void, and why Holly seems to be so in-sync with the supernatural events).

oh PLEASE talk about your McCormick family hcs
Tumblr media
YES OMG OKAY
so just letting yk that i am... not sure how to format this 😭 and i do have a tendency to ramble so very sorry if this is messy 💔
starting off w kevin :^)
as teens, kevin and kenny pick up a lot of jobs together. these two have worked all over the place!! especially kevin, who's dropped out of high school so he could work more hours.
related to the hc above!! kenny has thought about dropping out just like his older brother but kev basically won't let him lol. wants to see his younger siblings succeed.
as soon as he's able to, kev plans to leave his parents' house and plans to take his siblings with him as well.
he often avoids just 𝘣𝘦𝘪𝘯𝘨 home because his parents are complete assholes. it's smth that pisses kenny off immensely, even if he's guilty of the same thing sometimes. still, ken wishes he'd be there when things get rough rather than just leave him and their sister to deal with it
kenny!!
lord i have so many kenny hcs but i'll try to keep this exclusively mccormick family related
i kind stole this one from frazier uhm. if u see this frazier hi. but as soon as kev realizes ken is into stan he will not stop teasing him about it 😭 calls stan nicknames like "edward" or "L" when referring to him to kenny. ie: "hey ken when's gerard way comin over". kenny's genuinely amazed by the amount of nicknames he comes up with
HE 👏 IS 👏 KAREN'S 👏 BIGGEST 👏 FAN👏 ....he has a wall in his room dedicated to drawings, bracelets, or whatever karen's made for him!!
kenny's parka is a hand-me-down from kevin. in fact, a good chunk of his closet is hand-me-downs. the jacket itself is way to big on him so it lasts him quite a while but by the time he outgrows it that thing is on it's last thread lol
kenny has and always will be shorter than kevin. was genuinely shocked when karen ended up growing taller than him too, even if by a little LOL
kev taught him how to drive!! unfortunately they share a car and since kev is rarely home he rarely gets the chance to drive it... not that he minds much. stan, kyle, and cartman usually drive him around anyways
last but not least, karen :3
constantly babied by the other 2 even into her teen years. was fine as a little kid but eventually it kinda drives her insane, makes her feel like they don't take her seriously
about freshman year of high school she decides she wants to get raccoon stripes!! her and kenny sat around watching a couple tutorials before he helped her dye them
HER AND KENNY LOVE TO GOSSIP!! even tho they are in different grades and age groups, these 2 love sharing w each other what's happening w ppl the other prob doesn't even know 😭 kenny is out here hating on random 9th graders he doesn't even know LOL
because of their age gap, kevin often feels more like a father figure to karen than a brother, especially with how little their own father does for them
this post is already very long so i'm gonna stop there 😭 but hi yes i care a lot about the mccormicks

Okay. Okay. So the blonde mothers in Stranger Things. Karen, Virginia, Billy's mom, Mrs. Cunningham. And Edward, apparently??
An interesting thing to notice with some of them. Mrs. Cunningham gives Chrissy an eating disorder, Chrissy is paralleled with Mike, Mike has eating issues. Karen contributed to Mike's eating disorder? There parallels between the mothers. But that Karen is just a siderant I'll talk about that another time because there's a more pressing question.
How can we learn about Edward through the parallels with the other blonde mothers?
Billy's mom can be compared to Edward in a rather roundabout way. Billy's mom is the mother of Billy, obviously. Billy is extremely strongly paralleled to Will, the primary difference between the two being that Will was raised by his (not blonde) mom, and Billy was raised by his dad, abandoned by his blonde mother. Will is paralleled to Henward. So, Edward abandoned by his blonde mother?
Given that Connie Frazier (mother Alice) works with the lab, it's entirely possible he was abandoned by his blonde mother to his cruel papa. So, in fact, Billy's mom is paralleled to mother Alice, a sixth blonde mother?? Okay. Okay. Moving on.
Virginia is the mother of Henry, and sister-Virginia is Karen. So we can talk about them together. Sister-Virginia (Karen) has a habit of treating her husband and son similarly. Not in a incest way (or not exactly...) but she dresses them in the same clothes, looks to them both for emotional needs, because Ted won't give her emotional support, but Mike will. So, both mother Virginia and sister Virginia have a weird relationship with their only sons.
Edward appears to rely on his children, as he notably asks his child (El) to save him, and spared her and her alone, though when she doesn't join him, he turns against him. Man, both Virginias have a weird relationship with their opposite-gender children, being causing harm to them due to to their mothers' unreasonable expectations, and Edward is the same as mother-Virginia at hating his opposite-gender child for not doing what he expected her to do?? Ok??

I was today years old when I realized that Connie (as in Connie Frazier) was just another way of naming a character Rose in ST.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Which makes the fact that Connie specifically questioned the wheeler parents on front of their rose wallpaper A Choice (which they didn't do for Brenner)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
(for a better shot of wallpaper)
Guess another place we've seen pink roses?
Tumblr media
Also very interesting is that I believe Connie's death and El pushing the Demogorgon back into the UD in s1 represented the "mothergate"- which isn't named until s4.
Connie is standing right on front of the Tiger paw print ("predator") on the wall when El kills her- that the Demogorgon then comes through later once Connie is out of the way/
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
As in, the mothergate (the barrier between the RSU and UD) is broken and the UD came through- just like exactly what happened in the end of S4. Instead of Jason dying, Brenner did in S1 when this happened (at least, he died for the first time).
(Connie is also wearing a light blue button down shirt like we see Nancy and Karen wear in s1).
Even more interesting, El is in her "rosemary" dress when she pushes the Demogorgan back into the UD.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The evil is defeated and sent back to where is came from, ie the mothergate is closed again.
Also notice the light, photosynthesis poster (plants need light to survive- "go into the light"), and the TV ("distraction") framed in between the Demogorgon and El. lol. lmao even.
Which I think definitely explains the absence of roses in the Wheeler home when the earthquake happens at the end of s4:
Tumblr media
The mothergate is broke open. The "mothergate" being conformity/normalcy, as also symbolized by the fact that Mrs Cunningham (in white-pink in Chrissy's vecna vision) is the enforcer of Chrissy's popular cheerleader image, despite Chrissy being somewhat of a "freak" herself.
Anyways an extra fun fact!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
"Holding the mirror up"- the rose wallpaper behind Virginia
Same bloody tears as Connie when she was killed.

book recs for the mutual?
i am tentatively making a (non-prescriptive) list of books to read in 2023 to avoid being completely insane. if you’d like to recommend me something... now is the moment. you can tell me to read whatever you want, but if you want guidance, my four favorite things to read are: 
readable but smart popular historical nonfiction, especially but not limited to 19th century us history and/or literary biography (favorite books in this category: american rose by karen abbott, in the heart of the sea by nathaniel philbrick, prairie fires by caroline frazier)
history-spanning literary fiction with lots of gender (orlando, sexing the cherry, how to be both) 
contemporary poetry, which is not a genre i know well enough to narrow it down more but some of my favorites are night sky with exit wounds, asylum, and soft science if that helps
creative nonfiction essay collections, especially focusing on the lyric and/or experimental
again, this is a starting point and not a guideline. if you have a book you tell everyone to read, tell me to read it! also: if you have strong opinions on any works of ‘classic’/’canonical’ literature that i never blog about, e.g. the dostoyevsky novel that one MUST start with or the necessity of reading paradise lost if one can stand reading epics even a LITTLE or whatever, you should hit me with that too >:)

A goodbye
After almost 12 (!) years, it’s time for me to say goodbye to this blog. It will not be deleted though.
Here’s a (pretty rough and I’m sure not full) list of skaters featured here. They’re listed in alphabetical order by the first name (so “Ashley Wagner” is under “A” and not “W”). I know it’s not the correct way to do this thing but it was easier for me. Also, if you can’t find someone, try searching within the blog or just general Tumblr search.
Thank you for the company and bye!

Hey there! I’m Em/Aemiron and I mostly post art and Stranger Things analysis! :DD (my art is over at @aemiron-art)
My Stranger Things twitter is @aemiron-main and my ST tiktok is also @aemiron-main!
This is the sort of stuff I tend to post about/am known for:
Edward Creel (aka Vecna)
Creelarke (cofounded by henrysglock and myself)
Karen Wheeler being Virginia Creel from an alternate timeline
Connie Frazier being Alice Creel from an alternate timeline
Eightfifteengate
NINA weirdness and the moving and disappearing corpses during NINA & the changing blood on 001 during the 1979 massacre
I have some featured posts below, and then under the readmore cut, each section will have a few links to its own featured posts, and will also have a link to another tumblr post that will take you to the full list of posts for each subject. I had to do this because each tumblr post limits me to 100 links, so they don’t all fit in one post!
You can also find all of the links organized in a searchable google doc here, just in case the links break on tumblr, which they often tend to do. There’s also a link to the specific google doc section for each topic under the cut.

Last night I was making notes for a series of rituals I’m working on for dealing with and healing trauma in my family. I was flipping through my Crystals For Healing book. The book has an index of rituals, crystals, and mediations for different situations. This one is based of on of the rituals from the book for spiritual and/or emotional cleansing and working with Loki’s family is the perfect conduit for familial healing, so I worked them both in together. The format is there. I added a bunch and changed out the mantra. I what to give credit where credit is due for the basis and format of the ritual. The book is Crystals for Healing: Remedies for mind, heart, and soul by Karen Frazier. It’s incredibly helpful and very accessible and I highly recommend it.
So here’s what was from the book:
* 1/4 cup Himalayan pink salt or sea salt in a full bathtub
* sit in bathtub and add smoky and clear quartz
*soak for 10 mins with eyes closed while repeating the mantra
*remove crystals from the tub and then drain it, remaining in the tub until the water drains out
* cleanse crystals
The mantra provided is “I fill myself with a pure cleansing white light”
(Karen Frazier does it better and there’s a bunch more good stuff in this entry. Go read it.)
I didn’t really vibe with the mantra, so I started to write my own dedicated to Loki and Sigyn and it sort of took on a life of its own. Here’s what I wrote and what I really want to share:
“May the wildfire, force of nature, God Loki of fire, Sweet Sigyn of sun, may all that no longer serves me be burned away by your love. Let your love for me and each other purify me and fill me with bright white healing light that I may love as you do. Grace of the Bowl Holder, cunning of the Trickster God, Goddess of Security, Goddess of Chaos, help me walk through this world with the healing fire of Justice tempered by the Love of all things sacred.”
I’m extra, so I added some other crystals: obsidian, hematite, rose quartz, amethyst, and pyrite/fools gold (obvi)
I also lit three candles: one for me, one for Sigyn, and one for Loki
After the bath water draining, I rinsed myself off with cold water.
It was really truly wonderful.
As I try to untangle myself from the cycles of generational trauma and the trauma that was heaped on top of it by my own parents, I want to burn like fire, but be guided by love. I don’t want to lose the scars, but I now know I no longer need to suffer. I can heal. I deserve to heal. One thing I have learned with working with Loki’s family is the depth of love and complexity there.
My family is complicated. It’s broken at every joint, all of us disconnected and hurting and traumatized in our own way. It’s a small family, but there’s a lot of pain. With Loki’s family? I have found a partner in Loki, a friend in Sigyn, a brother in Fenrir, a mother in Angrboda, and connected deeply with others devoted to these deities. That’s what healing is about. It’s about connection. I cannot try to bring healing to my own family without healing for myself.
As I continue to go deeper into this journey with this wonderful crazy beautiful family, I’ve found a safety and comfort I’ve never known in my life. I cry on my mother’s lap, I rest in my partner’s arms, I learn from my friend, I fight side-by-side with my brother and there are more I have not yet connected with. I never knew that healing on this scale, of this magnitude, was possible.
I never understood unconditional love. I fought against it in my life in this realm. My wife and I have been together nearly 8 years, married 2 1/2 and until recently, would look at her and fear that someday she will decided I am too big, too much, and she would leave. She would be one more in a long line of trauma. But she has stayed. Loki’s family has helped me understand how that’s possible. I have lived in unconditional love with my wife, but I didn’t trust it until I felt Sigyn and Loki’s hands over mine as I held the bowl over my own head and Sigyn told me that there was no distance, no where I could go that they wouldn’t find me and bring me home.
Home. Such a big and powerful word. That’s what Loki’s family is. It’s home. And that’s what I want to share, because everyone deserves a place to belong.
