I was having a moment recently, and I came across this quote from LokeanWitchoftheWest, and damn if its obvious truth didn’t slap me upside the head:
“A lot of Loki’s most suggested offerings are drugs (alcohol and tobacco especially). If you are someone who struggles with addiction, or addiction runs in your family, and you choose not to do drugs for any reason; Loki does not mind you not giving those types of offerings. You are not lesser to him, or to this community.”
So, it happened.
A woman from one of the Lokean FB groups I am in, has been ‘told’ to ‘hold the bowl for Sigyn.’
She was asking if anyone had done such a ritual, asking for connections to the lore, as well as a possible layout for such a ritual.
Judging by the initial comments, surprisingly, there seemed to be a lot of curious folks that hadn’t heard of it — meanwhile, there were several others who had heard of it but didn’t know where a layout could be found.
So I tried posting a particularly concise layout as a comment to the OP
-and I was dismayed to discover that FB only allows 400 words or less in a comment –
so I sent her a link to a script of the layout (similar to one I’ve used) in a PM message.
(And then to see the few hits to this post right here on this blog.)

I’m taking this as yet another reason that I need to get my ass in gear about the book…
as perhaps this is yet another possible sign from Them
that I should have been at the point of publishing like… yesterday.*

Though honestly, I have been working on the book
but I also have been getting hung up
mostly because, as always
I have been struggling to find the words to succinctly convey what it is that I am trying to say.
Yes, I have been hemming and hawing with my edits because – if you know me, you know I want it to be perfect.
And then I see this meme posted as a recommended pin on my Pinterest feed:
Point taken, Sir.

* And further nudging abounds with this later comment from another user regarding sharing ritual results: Not all answers are in the past, make this up yourself or with creative friends, and please share what you come up with. We need new, modern rituals like this to worship Loki’s much neglected kin…
Why yes. Yes, we do.
