At my core, I am a pantheist as well as a polytheist and animist. I believe that everything comes together to a greater consciousness, a greater Being. Over the years, I’ve meditated and pondered and written and dreamed about how best to express this. Lessons have come to me over time from various divinities, and the result now is a meditation that takes a form of 3×3 – a Tricursal Valknot, if you will, as a representation of the collective Being, bestowed by the Ancestors. Like Borromean Rings, each triangle stands alone, unlinked with either of the other two, and yet the three are entwined such that each holds the other two together.

There are three things of inherent Value:
Freyja’s Lesson:
To BE is of value.
That which IS is Being.
That which IS is called Beautiful.
The Value given in return for Beauty is Love.
Hella’s Lesson:
To DO is of value.
That which DOES is called Useful.
The Value given in return for Use is Gratitude.
Brighid’s Lesson:
To BELONG is of value.
That which BELONGS is called Frithful.
The Value given in return for Frith is Trust.
The Ancestors’ Lesson:
All things together make the Whole which is the Universe.
The Whole is Divine.
THEREFORE:
The Purpose of the Universe is to BE.
The Universe is Beautiful.
The Universe is Loved.
The Universe recognises the value of all that IS.
The Universe finds all things Beautiful.
The Universe Loves.
All things are a part of the Divine.
All things are Sacred.
All things serve the purpose of the Whole.
All things have Being.
All things are Beautiful.
All things are Loved.
Worship is an expression of Love for Divinity.
(Love Languages are forms of Worship.
Sex is an expression of Love.
Sex is a form of Worship.)
