Walking Ix (ee`sh):
In the Mayan Oracle, Ix represents "integrity, heart-knowing, alignment with divine will, magician, shaman, jaguar, night seer, priest, torch bearer, magic." When I asked the Oracle what Star-Glyph represented my purpose in this website, Ix was the answer.
Holding fast to the qualities of Ix, this journal chronicles my spiritual path. On the path, I will occasionally write organized essays on spiritual subjects, those will appear under Pieces below.

I've been neglecting this journal. I guess because I feel I'm neglecting my spiritual life. I don't meditate. I don't acknowledge sabbats or personal spiritual holy days -- but, then, I'm not a ritualist. However, I haven't been reading or discussing spirituality much either. Who am I to write about it?
My spirituality is expansive. I don't limit it to one tradition or concept. So I never know where to start in describing it. Likewise, since it permeates my life, I have trouble drawing lines around activities or thoughts and saying "THIS is spiritual in nature."
So, if I'm not reading, healing, doing charts or cards, what is there to chronicle here? If I'm not practicing my spirituality, how can I journal it? It's very frustrating.
At one point I wanted to use this as a place to collect quotes that have affected my spiritual path -- to share them and have them all in one place. that didn't quite work out as I stopped spending time online. The few hours I'd log on now and then were spent doing e-mail and research, not maintaining a journal of what I wasn't doing.
Maybe I just need to discipline myself.....make a committment to post something here three times a week -- or every other day or something -- even if it's just a line or two or a reflection on how blessed I am. Something to celebrate the spirituality that saturates my existence. It deserves celebration.
