@kara_dreamer o/ Yes, I've been a devotee of Loki's for...shoot. 5 years now? I just sort of found a cozy home in Loki and His family and Lokean fit, naturally. :P He's an interesting god.
@victim_of_changes is there any sort of established body of Lokean practice, like there is with other neo-pagan and reconstructed religions, or is it very much DIY? (I rather expect the latter, given that it's Loki we're talking about here.)
@kara_dreamer Yeah, it's very DIY. There are some who are more academic and tend to share their knowledge with the rest of the community, and I'd say that's about as recon as we probably get considering worship of Loki, if it happened (and it probably did?? we think), was not really recorded. So there's a lot of shared gnosis that's passed around and a common acceptance of differing UPG and spirit work, which is nice.
@victim_of_changes well, if you want to read a _very_ long sequence of toots that I coincidentally was working on since yesterday where I try to explain just what Loki means to me and how that happened, you can have a look at this: https://witches.town/@kara_dreamer/2496325
(there might be a bit of confusing context with the frequent mentions of "Kel", who's sort of an auxiliary personality of mine, who used to be my main personality.)
@victim_of_changes Hi ! Welcome here ! I hope you'll feel at ease ! ^^
Waiting to see your drawings ! By multiple system do you mean MSA ? ^^'
If you have questions don't hesitate to ask. You can send a message to @TheSupreme if you want to contact admins/moderators.
@Seipas Hello! Thank you! :D I'm sure I'll get my art up here eventually, when I get back to drawing. :)
And oh, no, by 'multiple system' I mean I'm only one of many (23?) people sharing the same body. We've technically been diagnosed with Dissociative Identity Disorder, but I'm not a fan of pathologizing our existence, y'know? It's just easier to get the idea across to mention it.
Thanks for the info 👌
@victim_of_changes Oh okay ! Thanks for clarifying !
@victim_of_changes hello! a Lokean, indeed? I was just reflecting on what that term meant to me (little, I confess, even though Loki is of some interest to me.)
