Wow.
You hit home with me Susan. One of the most awesome moments of my
awakening was encountering the Dark Goddess. I saw Her in the form of
Morrigan and one of her sisters, Macha. What haunts me is that I didn't
know anything about mythology at the time. I was both shocked and
excited when a year later, I read a description of the Celtic battle
raven goddesses that matched my visions.

Indeed, these deities are not for the faint hearted... they are
industrial strength transitional beings that take no prisoners.
Morrigan, Badb, Macha, Nemain, Cathubodva.... you have allowed me to
become who I am *now* by slaying who I *was*.

I'll never forget seeing Macha as one of the four riders of the
Apocalypse. The rider was Disease. She had flaming red hair and She
looked me right in the eye with a cold, intense glare.

As I've said before, this was one of the dynamite sticks it took to
blast out over ten years of hard core opiate addiction. Since then I've
personally found a new name for this equestrian. She's no longer
"Disease." She is now called Courage and Challenge.

Now I really love this deity, but I don't expect love in return. She
doesn't have time. She's riding off through the spirit worlds... through
our collective soul to crack Her whip on someone else... to zap the life
back into another walking corpse.

Yes! Nemain! ("Noise") The loud, terrifying cry of a giant raven over
the field of battle.... CAAAAAAAAAAW!!!!!

And now that the dance floor has been cleared of the frightened squares,
we can jump up and add some rock to our K roll. Spin that Stones song!
"Please allow me to introduce myself..... ....Have some sympathy and
some taste..."

I can't wait!

Till then, Love, Light and Good Rest,

Paul
