Column: Tell Me All Your Thoughts On God – Retracted

By Eric O. Scott | December 13, 2013

Dear readers of the Wild Hunt:

I have decided to retract my column, “Tell Me All Your Thoughts on God,” originally published on December 13, 2013. Its publication was a serious mistake on my part, and I regret posting it. One Heathen credo is that we are our deeds; by retracting the column, I am attempting to correct my poor deed. One of my best friends, after reading the column, pointed out to me that I had portrayed the colleague mentioned in the column poorly. Although that was not my intention, that was the portrait created by my words, and I own them.

Tarot of the Week

Tarot of the Week

Deck: The Animystic Tarot, by Willow Fay, published by REDFeather, Mind, Body Spirit, an imprint of Shiffer Publishing, Ltd.

Card: Major Arcana 0 – The Fool

The next seven days are likely to offer up opportunities for new beginnings and possibly even the start of an exciting journey or new endeavor. The energy of optimism, play, and embracing the unknown while trusting your instincts is highlighted. No path or opportunity is without risk, but many things worthy of achieving or undertaking merit any risk involved. The unknown can elicit fear, but the underlying message of The Fool is to recognize the fear and move forward regardless.

Conversely, allowing fear or reservations to prevent taking a leap of faith, especially one that is supported by facts and wisdom could result in new opportunities being blocked. There is also the potential for making decisions or choices that are completely ungrounded in reality and ignore what is easily perceived. Such situations are most likely to lead to an unfortunate outcome that is contrary to what is planned.
