A New Blog

So here I am with a shiny new blog. I plan on using this place to ruminate and ponder things I find of a religious or spiritual sort and to share my own writings and thoughts with you dear reader.

I chose to start this because I love reading the religious and spiritual blogs of others and I feel that I shouldn't just be a voyeur and that I should share in turn. It also gives me a chance to really think things through easier than trying to explain things verbally. That and I can link to what ever image or song or bit of poetry that sparked the idea or tangent in the first place which usually helps. Real life does not yet come with hyperlinks.

Lately I've been working with prayers particularly those that involve prayer beads. I have one made and it's nice though I did a wire link type construction, like one would find on a traditional rosary, and it's not quite working out, it tends to get warped and tangled a lot more than I expected, but it fits better in my hands than it did on cord. I find working with said beads very soothing and it helps me to focus. I love to dance and my mind tends to wander if I sit too still. Right now I'm looking at making something of an infinite prayer bead set, one that can be more or less 'all purpose' when it's more of a chant or an Adoration, basically the  sort of thing where if I get into a 'groove' I can keep going with out the interruption of a Y connector or a pendant. It's a matter of getting the materials and the numbers worked out at this point.

Speaking of Adorations, I do believe Sannion has started quite the craze over on his blog. Can be found here. Personally, I love the idea. I currently have one for Diana written but I want to work with it before I share. I think I will also write ones to Tellus and Sol Indiges for when I get a chance to enjoy the outdoors.

Well it's time to go to work.

Blessings,

Satiah
