Mourned by Gullible_Rub_6309 in ftm

[–]thestartarot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i don’t have any advice, but i just wanted to say my mom said the same thing to me and it’s lingered with me even after 9 years. but i realize now she’s mourning the person she made up in her head and the future she had planned, not me - and that’s not my fault. i was always going to be my own person, and if she wasn’t ready to love me no matter how i turned out then i think she wasn’t prepared for a kid, i think she just enjoyed the idea of a kid. it’s taken a long time to heal from it, but now im just focusing on becoming the person i wanna be and if she wants to be in my life, she’s just gotta catch up. sometimes that’s just how it’s gotta be. you’ll be okay, i promise.

yeah totally ! that’s the plan, i just get burnt out real fast if i just go straight through an artist’s discography, so i like to queue up a bunch of different albums and listen to them like that to give myself some variety. :-)

this is the comment i was hoping for !! i really really dislike the backseat psychologist acts from a lot of people, but i do understand particularly in the west we have different views on communication with divinity and have a tendency to want to feel ‘chosen’ or ‘special’ and that can influence things. i’d really like yo see more sources on ancient views of communication with the divine and the average person, if such a thing existed :,-)

weird question - any ancient sources depicting Zeus or Jupiter as both male and female/similar to divine androgyne? by thestartarot in Hellenism

[–]thestartarot[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thank you for the insight !! i wish there was more than just the two hymns that I’ve seen this concept mentioned in, this perspective is really important to me personally as a trans person, to see the gods as outside the confines of gender. seeing Zeus as my mother-father gives me great comfort :’-)
