Deo in another thread
I have one experience with a deity who I have been unable to name, though, and I keep wondering if I'll meet her later on and that will change a lot. I think I met her again while at Tea's, just briefly.
Oh? Do tell! Do tell!
Heee heee. Thread surfing. Jumping from branch to branch, carrying messages.
When I was around fourteen, my cousin was born the day before my birthday. My Aunt was very, very, very sick (almost died) and J was premature by quite a lot. All of her systems kept failing, she was on an incredible amount of life support, so was her mom, and it really looked like we were going to lose one or both of them. To give you an idea of the severity, I was told that every single system in her body failed at least once the week after she was born. They thought they could keep her alive, but there was a high probability it would be without an organ or two.
I couldn't stop thinking about them, and in particular the cousin I had never met and might never meet. I hadn't prayed in a while, but this night I did, sending out a call to whoever would hear that all I wanted, the thing I wanted most in the world, was for my cousin to be ok and live and be healthy.
Suddenly I felt this incredible warmth and this female presence (which was new, the previous incorporeal I dealt with was male and very much of my making) and the feeling I got - no words - was that she would be fine, and I should relax because both she and I were being taken care of.
A half hour later my mom came in to see if I was still awake. She'd gotten a call; J had finally stabilized and was going to be fine. She would have no long lasting problems, she was healthy, and it looked like my aunt would be all right as well.
It was the first real prayer I had ever made. I have yet to make a call like that again; in fact these days I usually target a deity specifically with offerings meant for him or her. Honestly, that's the only time I've had something I wanted
that much.
Anyway, for a long time I've been trying to figure out who it was. Saga seemed like the most likely, but as I grew to know her better it just didn't feel right. They felt similar, similar enough to be fast friends, but not like the same person at all. So it's sort of a questionmark for me.
At your place, I had a brief little something after Wing gave me the Dublin and Tara stones. I kept getting this picture of a really pretty place when I touched the Tara stone, and I thought it might be a nice to nap there, like I nap in the roots of Yggdrasil. I was dropping off to sleep when I suddenly got this feeling of warmth, and someone female said something in a language I didn't understand, and I got the distinct feeling it was a "no, this is a bad idea; go sleep where your body is" or something of the like. So I listened, headed back "home" and slept there.
I've been thinking about it since, and realized the two presences felt similar. I don't know if "the same" applies, it's been a long breadth of time in between, but definitely similar.
It likely means nothing, but there you go. A few more marks on the stone that is me. XD
