Soul Care | Spiritual Health After Religion

Kings are for castles. Sitting up on the throne of power saving all of us from some perceived threat or beast.

Caste is a word I think of when I see "castle." It is another system very much like the feudal system of Kingdom life. The caste system is a social system passed down through ancestral lineage.

The journey requires you a visit to the castle without a timeline for how long you will be there. There is purpose wherever you find yourself at currently. Have you been looking for a place to find spiritual depth? So, you went to the church needing sanctuary only to find the damp darkness of concrete and metal that had created a cage based kingdom all around you.

The castle has many lessons to learn the value of your worth. For it is the place of judgment and hierarchy for you to try to scale through. Castles have many people yet only a few are noble by birthright.

The castle teaches you that your birthright says otherwise. Meaning, you are not noble, good, nor holy by birthright. Y'all kingdoms are feudal systems. I dunno about you but these days I am not interested in serving in a kingdom rather, my spiritual home is in the quietude of the temple.

Let's talk about it. Join me at the table for a lil soul food.

Hold you tiny ember of your fire close to your chest and heart. Trust that holding your own light with tenderness is walking out your purpose. We find it along the way.

How's it going? We made it past another end of the world? Amazing isn't it that we escaped the claws of death yet again. How did you overcome? Faith usually works good for me. A trust that my feet will walk where they are supposed to go, and it happened how it did. Learn from it, give yourself grace, and keep walking it out in trust.

You have the light inside of you. You are made from the oldest stuff on Earth : breath, dirt, matter, space, and water. Trust.

What would change for you if you trusted that your body is a holy dwelling place ?

Strike the match to light the lantern that sets your soul aglow.

Have you ever heard of the Peshitta? It is the Holy Scripture known as a standard version of the Bible in Syriac traditional churches, as well as Orthodox Churches. And guess what ? That ancient language describes the Holy Spirit as feminine. Referred to as "she," and "Mother," we can learn that God is both the masculine and feminine aspects. The fullness of the deity in my mind would consist of both aspects of a loving being.
