“[I]f there was any one thing that came through the fires of my prolonged skepticism more unscathed than another, it was my mystical experience. I believe that in this a man comes the nearest to bedrock that human existence can reach. Here he can find what will create rock, and give him firm footing amidst, and through, any situation whatever. Where everything else is uncertain, he can be certain in himself. And, though my understanding of the experience is now quite different, and although I claim for what speaks in the deepest stillness of my being neither absoluteness nor infallibility, nevertheless what spoke to me before speaks to me still, and now as before I undertake to obey it as implicitly as a child. . . . as though it were both absolute and infallible, even though I definitely believe it to be neither. In short, the mystical experience remains the center of my life. For me, it is not a device by which to escape from reality, but the best means by which a man may see quickly and surely what he should do in the world, so that he can do it with all his powers.”

The individual occupations of the male deities are mostly divine versions of the occupations of men, and the occupations of the goddesses similarly correspond to those of women, with a few exceptions. Greek and Roman women did not engage in hunting as a sport, an activity that was proper to males, yet the goddess Artemis roams the wilderness as a huntress. Real Greek and Roman women did not act as soldiers, yet Athena is a goddess of war. Although women did not serve as heralds, the goddess Iris is one of the gods’ messengers. In these cases female deities specialize in activities in which human females did not participate.

Book of Kells
Northumbria during its golden age was the most important centre of learning and arts in Britain. Initially the kingdom was evangelised by Irish monks whose centre was Iona in the Inner Hebrides. This led to a flowering of monastic life. Lindisfarne was founded from Iona by St Aidan approx 635, and was to remain the major Northumbrian monastic centre, producing figures like Wilfrid and Snt Cuthbert. The nobleman Benedict Biscop visited Rome and headed the monastery at Canterbury in Kent and his twin-foundation Monkwearmouth-Jarrow Abbey added a direct Roman influence to Northumbrian culture, and produced figures such as Ceolfrith and Bede. Northumbria played a key role in the formation of Insular art, a unique style combining Anglo-Saxon, Celtic, Pictish, Byzantine and other elements, producing works such as the Lindisfarne Gospels, St Cuthbert Gospel, the Ruthwell Cross and Bewcastle Cross, and later the Book of Kells, which was probably created at Iona.

On the windswept plains of Sardinia, this carved stele stands as a sentinel of the prehistoric sacred spring of Santa Cristina, dating back to the Nuragic era around 1200 BCE. It marks a site where water was revered as a divine source of life and renewal.
The surface of the stone is adorned with spirals, concentric circles, and geometric motifs, symbols believed to represent cosmic cycles, the sun, and the eternal flow of water. Below, a small channel still carries the trickle of ancient springs, as if connecting past rituals to the living earth of today.
Its presence feels both earthly and celestial, as though it speaks the language of time itself. How many prayers, whispered under stormy skies or golden sunsets, have risen from this place to the gods of water and stone?

If you are being held back by beliefs (of any kind)
I want to encourage you to actively look for, and seek out, evidence of the contrary and allow yourself to realise your resistance was nothing other than a narrative.
The only thing truly holding you back, was the story you were telling yourself, and the limitations you accepted as a result of listening to it.
