How could you not? The father is a scattergun with shells of chaos and destruction. He ruins everything around him that he's ever cared about. The more he cares about something the worse the destruction and random chaos ensues. From the sounds of it - the only thing he's more obsessive about than her is his son.Caerdon wrote:Hmm, actually I hadn't considered that one when replying. However, it does lead to other possibilities that I hadn't considered before concerning the usage of bloodlines, but honestly what I have thought of in regards to that is, well, a bit hard to swallow in practicality (in relative terms to what has been in this thread, that is).RoseRed wrote:C, are you thinking 'sins of the father'?
But no, what I originally was thinking is that he's basically a catalyst, like a cursed or hexed item or object would be, where if you come into contact with, or into proximity, then it enacts and spreads to you.
It very well could be. The whole sins of the father thing can manifest in so many different ways. The concept has crossed over damn near every culture I've researched. In this case - the chaos and destruction is hyper focused in the son. That's a lot of crisis to happen to one so young. You don't see it often. Thank all the gods for that. Sure, a lot of things fall apart, life gets hard and bad but this is fucking ridiculous. It takes a strong woman to stay upright and graceful under these circumstances.
While you're at it - check out Susun Weed. Especially, her information on infusions. She has extensive info on how to nourish and replenish your physical body as well. You can't leave that out. Without nurturing the physical vessel - any energy work you have done will be mostly wasted.
Spiral, I was thinking of the connection of her son while I was reading your post. Wouldn't it be lovely if things were so simple? Her son may be grown and of legal age but he still needs his mommy. And that's how some men hold onto their 'property'. They breed. (It's an ugly Truth. I don't know how to word that to make is sound less horrible than it really is. I suck at sugar coating.)
hellbore, this has none of the markers of old/ancient ancestral curses. You can lay that thought to rest.
You don't ever need to do that with me, There's no reason to get lost down in those rabbit holes. Simply ask for clarification.I'm wondering if your comment to Caerdon is referring to some kind of ancestral thing "the sins of the father"
And details are important.
You've been a practicing witch for years and years. Once you begin to understand your different gifts and how to use them - you'll be fine.As I emerged from sleep that morning I saw my mother's face. She passed in 2011 and I'd never previously felt her presence.
You kept going down the ancestral thing and one of them showed up. That's to be expected in certain circles. She showed you how upset she was, got her ass to work doing what she HATED and got it done. That's the bloodline you come from. Don't ever forget that. Do you have any plans on erecting an ancestral shrine? It could be as simple as a candle and a picture.
Just don't forget that your son is comprised of two blood lines. We've heard an awful lot about your side. What do you know of the ancestry prior to the dad? That could be helpful.
There's nothing really tactical about hitting health, sleep and money. That's just common knowledge.It really does feel strangely tactical.
I agree that powessy's theory doesn't really fit with what you're describing. Keep in mind that he's only been at this a couple years and he's still trying to figure out what it is that he's seeing. He sees in such extreme detail that it's easy to forget that we're all simply cogs in the wheel.
