Well, when I say "command", I mean it in the Empedoclean sense- the Fates move the world into synchronicities that tell us things, including the will of the Gods, which I suppose is another way of saying "what you should be doing".
Please, do me a favor, and don't be intimidated by anyone or anything. You may not realize it, but you and I are quite similar. We're both Pagans. We've both created a lot of websites, been members of more than one organization devoted to Paganism, made e-lists, abandoned e-lists, and collected awesome friends and made amazing lists of enemies and assholes who cause us trouble. You and I also were students of Buddhism- the same kind of Buddhism- and Ceremonial Magic. We are both well-read on Gnosticism. We are both polytheists.
We are nearly identical in psychic constitution; the biggest difference between us, aside from the fact that I'm an average looking guy and you're a hot chick, is that you're vegetarian or whatever, and I'm a devoted omnivore with ideations of carnivorous glory. We both believe in the same Gods, and have written extensively on Hellenism. You even own statues that I own and a certain grape-embossed chalice that I also own. We see many of the same things in religious rites, though we are across the country from one another.
Your victories are mine, in a very strange way, and so any enemies or problems you have, YOU MUST triumph over. We must not allow the forces against to win.
