So here I am. It's been many years for me on this journey now but I find myself becoming more environmentally aware with each passing season and I feel myself being drawn into this path of becoming more of an environmental voice in my area. And as I let myself be drawn in, I can feel Gaia's touch and approval even stronger within me.
Years ago I was speaking with a friend about how she knew when she was supposed to become a priestess of her patron deity and she said she just knew. I have also heard some friends talk about challenges their patrons have given them to complete before dedicating themselves. Until now I have felt a strong connection with Gaia but never felt it was the time to dedicate myself to her. Did I have the time? Did I have the commitment? But now I feel like that time is coming nearer. It's not here yet, but it's within sight.
So here I am. ~smile~

I am curious about something; with having a Deity that is pretty much, the earth, like ours are, do you find a "spiritual downtime" in the winter? I'd been feeling one as of late, and was just curious to see if that was something you had to deal with as well?
I do to a degree, but as my deity is in the "Wisdom" position for our grove it seems to make the downtime a little different. It seems that summer is more for "doing" and Winter is more for thinking about what to be doing and begining to act on those thoughts in preparation for the spring. As well as using winter for comtemplating what has been done already.
