em hotep,

Hi, Wedjbai!

This is Luellon from Livejournal.

I’m starting to see the point of connecting to the deities again, but I light candles to them and pray.

I haven’t done ritual in awhile. I used to try to do it everyday a few years back and it was draining me.

I try now to just do ritual for Aset on Her feastdays. I’ll give offerings to the deities on other days, but not do ritual.

Maybe I’m missing the point.

I agree: part of making this work is doing Senut. It becomes a cycle that basically spirals into what’s the point until either you give up entirely, or something comes along and makes you see the point.

Luckily, I see the point again

“A year without seut” to “The slide into agnosticsm” and I can tell you that is almost definately not a coincidence.

Just a thought; Part of the Senut is about opening the way. If you basically, close (or just quit opening) the door for anyone for a year, it could become difficult to experience them as very close or influential.

I know – it’s just how lonely you feel in those moments.

I think it might be a trait I have from Aset that I want/need to know everything, even if I have no business with it, and I’ve certainly taken Her words to heart.

*hugs* I understand what you mean about depression; there have been times when I’ve wanted to feel the Netjeru around me, but I couldn’t – and I doubt anyone could say it was due to a lack of trying. Sometimes, my own sensitivity ignites my feelings of depression, which then turns off (or seems to) the psychic or the invisible-awareness part of me. I have a lack of words to describe what I mean right now. Being a writer myself, in some ways it’s easier to just write what I mean more so than try to speak it. You aren’t alone, but I doubt I need to tell you that.

I just wanted to comment on what Aset said: take great heed on this, as I, for one, have learned the hard way. While it’s great you wish to know things, learn and grow spiritually and physically – sometimes the answers to questions asked and unasked are – unbelievable, unthinkable and down right unreal. *hugs* One would think an answer to a question could not involve us, or hurt us, but sometimes it can – because sometimes we’re a part of the question, and sometimes we’re a part of the answer, if not both at the same time. Perhaps I’m answering this more for myself than to really ‘I agree with Aset!” but, I really wanted to comment to reading that… 0:)

First you have to export your entries as XML documents, then import them. Because I run on Linux, I can't use the down loadable LJ clients, so I had to export each month separately. here's the LJ FAQ on how to export. If you're using Wordpress.com, go to Manage>Import to upload the XML from your computer.
