      That’s totally respectable! Better not to go messing with something one is not comfortable messing with, right?

      I guess I tend towards a non-traditional, pseudo-Jungian view that the spiritual world and our connection to it is pre-present within the inner-most parts of our mind. It’s not that the spiritual doesn’t exist; my view is more like a complete copy of the divine is present within every living thing. It just develops into some things that are more personable within people, and people’s individual personalities grow out from those. What we each experience in nature or through ritual comes from within, which is part of the real miracle of it all.

      My opinion is that everyone knows the Feminine Divine because She forms the basis of what develops and eventually coalesces into our personal selves.

      A bit unorthodox, I know, and I’m not great at explaining things. I suppose it could be taken as somewhat of a middle-ground between spirituality and psychology, but I guess I don’t think either quite has the language to grasp the reality of things on their own.

      Do you have any other spiritual musings or experiences you’d feel comfortable sharing?
