See the tiny person in this picture? That is representative of me when I was a child. Fascinating, synchronous, uncanny.

I'm gay, married, Pagan, and Progressive-minded from California, raised by hippie intellectuals. I relocated to Massachusetts for graduate school and never moved back to the Left Coast. My day job is that of psychotherapist in private practice, a profession I love with all my heart and a dream fully realized that I'd had since fifteen years of age. These are my rantings, reviews, and reflections. If nothing else, I hope you find something worth reading here and leave the rest. View all posts by The Practical, Fanciful Pagan

Absolutely beautiful, and a little bit haunting!

Agreed! I fell in love with the image of the Hindu god Shiva when I beheld a poster of him (as Shiva Naturaja, i.e., Lord of the cosmic, ecstatic dance) in my parents’ bedroom when I was about seven years old. I will probably write about that in a blog post someday.

I remember a green picture you had on this site that I thought was a little scary, certainly if I was 7 years old when I saw it. I imagine it might give me nightmares. Your eclectic background would certainly give you a much broader way of looking at the world. I will be looking forward to that post.

This is a fabulous image! And that it recalls for you your introduction to Shiva makes it even more amazing. I hope you will write about your introduction to Shiva Natural sometime!
I’ve read some about Shiva (and consorts) since a vision I had around 8 years ago. I stumbled on a picture on the internet that was similar to the images in my vision and discovered Shiva and consorts, then was off into investigating. Fascinating. Intriguing. Almost completely confusing for me!

Hey! This post couldn’t be written any better! Reading through this
post reminds me of my old room mate! He always kept talking about
this. I will forward this page to him. Pretty sure he will have a good read.
Thank you for sharing!
