Just to keep those curious updated...

My professional and not so professional responses to dealing with unwanted spam attacks are now as follows.

Professional... removed the spammer

Not so professional... wrestled with some ugly thoughts and feelings for about two hours

Professional... countered attempts at deception by misuse of facts of my person by increasing personal transparency, rather than denying or closeting my person in anyway.

Not so…

Today has me pondering the donation box. If I were independently wealthy, I wouldn't have to think about this at all, it would be a no brainer to not have it.

Back in the days when I was able to work and pulling in 200$ an hour either as a dominatrix or as a therapist, (more similar than one might expect) it wouldn't have been an issue, but then I would never have had the time to devote to creating a place like this.

I can cover the costs of this place myself if I really have…

Reply to a member I wrote this morning on increasing energy... (me giving advice on that?! how ironic, I'm mostly bed bound. lol)

There are a lot of things one can do to increase energy, and it may in part have to do with finding out if there is a reason for having low energy to begin with.

One of the main things is making sure you have really good nutrition going on if you don't already, and…

Posted this as a response to someone on Pagan UnderWorld, (a site owned by one of our members here on the Temple) who brought up the topic of Spectrophilia - sex with…

Recently someone I might let me know I introduced them to the term pansexual, that they had before only been familiar with the term bisexual. They were curious why I used the term over the term bisexual when there are only two genders... So I wrote a very brief reply about the fact that actually there are more than two genders. Gender duality is a social construct, not a biological one.

Here is my response to him, it's brief, but I thought I'd blog it anyways:

Actually more…

Thankfully my actions speak for themselves, and most people are not influenced by such gossip.

It is amazing to me how our actions are interpreted by others.  In essence, I think more and more on an Anais Nin quote that I love: "We don't see things as they are, we see things as we are".

For instance, I am a member of a whole whack of ning sites that are spiritual or occult or new age related. I'm not active on facebook, and I don't have a…

In my belief the most important part of any process to awakening any part of ones self, including the chakras, is through increasing over all self awareness, love, and compassion. Yeah... I know sounds so bunnies and light. Sounds not particularly mystical and kind of like a cop out perhaps to some. But there is also method, in this madness of love, love I am so continually focused on.

The truth is I have found through practical application of the laws of love. Love really is the…

(Katt is my nickname, and many of my friends know me by that name so many of my older images are tagged with it)

For me I believe integral to the process of enlightenment is being authentic self. What does this mean? I don't have all those answers, I'm still working on it. I do believe it's a never…

Namazu ~ The Earthshaker

Making sense of disaster, history and myth.

In fact, unless you have the compassion, empathy, heart and mind of a saint, as the site grows I can pretty much guarantee it.

There will be those people here. Those people you try so desperately to avoid. Those people that grate on your nerves. Those people that believe in *that* stuff, you know, maybe it's the scary stuff, or maybe it's fluffy bunny stuff. Maybe it's not what they believe, but how they shove it down your throat. Or so it seems. Or maybe it's that they just seem to…

If there are people as nosy as I am with as vivid imaginations on this site, and there must be, even though I'm a very curious Katt myself. Then some of you will be wondering about me, my beliefs, my agenda, and what I'm all about and if there's anything more to this site, etc.

So I thought I would talk about the kinds of things I'd be wondering about if I were a member here.

My agenda with this website. Bottom line, I wanted a spiritual social network I could enjoy, hang out…
