So lately I've felt...spiritually disconnected lately, I no longer feel the presence of my gods that much, nor any of the spirits or the Earth herself. I want to find some way of remedying this, but I cannot help but notice that I am coming up short, any helpful advice you have would be appreciated. That is...if I am not intruding rudely, of course.

To honor the Gods

Re: To honor the Gods
Well what I do is light a candle on my alter And reconnect my self to my chosen gods and to the earth through meditation . I don't know if this helps just tellen u what I'd do and have done in your placeKnowledge is the key to eternity. Not bowing before a deity not grovling at the feet of a messiah.

Re: To honor the Gods
What I do is seriously question my faith till I realize it's all good.White and Red 'till I'm cold and dead.

From Britain's shore
Wolfe the dauntless hero came
And planted firm Britannia's flag
On Canada's fair domain.
Here may it wave,
Our boast, our pride
And joined in love together,
The thistle, shamrock, rose entwined,
The Maple Leaf Forever.

Re: To honor the Gods
Before I came to my current path, I often felt like this - I've since understood that I was "forcing connections" that simply weren't there. "My Gods", as I thought of the deities which interested me back then, simply weren't "my Gods" at all and the connection that I thought I felt just wasn't as real as I'd hoped.
So if you're certain that your Gods are indeed reciprocating and you aren't forcing a connection that perhaps isn't there or isn't right for you, then the only thing I can suggest is to introspect and to understand what things may be interfering with your connection. Most of the time, normal life hiccups such as stress, work, distractions, etc. are to blame. The disconnect isn't always spiritual - but sometimes, just situational. Set aside a special time each week, as a minimum, for your time to connect with your Gods. Have no interruptions and make an effort to observe this time, on time, every single week. If there is still no change, then perhaps you're trying to connect in the wrong way.

Re: To honor the Gods
I often have the same issue, OP. Oftentimes I go for months completely disconnected from my spirituality, and then slowly drift back, usually with a minor revelation to speed things along. Torey's advice is good: I may follow it myself.sigpic
