We Didn’t Get Ruder—We Just Stopped Noticing Each Other: A Pagan View of Everyday Harm

https://pagangrove.wordpress.com/2026/04/22/we-didnt-get-ruder-we-just-stopped-noticing-each-other-a-pagan-view-of-everyday-harm/

Dear Friends of the Actual Natural World,

Well thank the skies. It is raining in #London Town. I have my trusty flask of black tea and a touch of blackcurrant to sweeten the tannin.

Or I could have porridge and enter the virtual world... Oops. Chose the virtual #Nature route. For now.

Well it is #Sunday. It will be sunny in a couple of hours. I can wait.

However by #Sunny time (10 AM onward) there might be phone zombies and other weirdos strolling about. And I am #Wyrd enough without added footfall.

I have a cunning plan.

Use my #Siddhi to summon the birds and other #Critters to clear the streets as much as possible. For that I need my virtual #Coven.

Prayers, blessing, good thoughts and #Magick to the usual place. Usual triple or more returns.

I think of myself as genderqueer because I have a lifelong need to queer gender. To queer everything really but especially gender. I love queer as a verb. I love queering things.

You know another word for queer is "weird"? Which has the added benefit of referring to magic, the wyrd. So hey, if you're queer and you want to fuck with things while also altering space and time, you know, maybe try out being genderweird.

Hail Freya-Frigg!

Wrapped in the mists of Fensalir,
Concealing all save that which must be seen,
I cast my offering to the inky water,
My troth, a vow by deed affirmed;
Through salty haze,
I see the ancient Queen,
And eyes transfixed,
I yield, yield,
To wyrd’s entwining way.

Today’s #NYTimes #SpellingBee weirdness - common word not allowed: #wadi; uncommon word that is allowed: #dryad. I bet my favourite hat that more native English speakers know what a wadi is than a dryad. And an uncommon word that isn’t allowed but should be: #wyrd

One thing that the above post by Simon Reynolds highlights / hints at is that the period was brilliant for consolidating loose, often regional, tribal affiliations & then allowing them to cross-fertilise. Eg a shared love of #weird / #wyrd fiction (#Lovecraft et al) or #Deleuze or some #Techno artist or #PostPunk band was established but often the ‘tribes’ came at them from very different angles, so that the resulting work / #theory was hopelessly mangled…

My review of Nigel Pennick's memoir Wyrd Times https://chaotopia-dave.blogspot.com/2023/07/wynd-times-by-nigel-pennick.html

#nigelpennick #paganism #biography #wyrd

What is #Wyrd?

The #OldEnglish word wyrd is the usual translation for the modern English "fate". Some see it as immutable as the classic concept of Fate, others see it as just a web of cause and effect, each action having one or more reactions, each becoming the action for a new reaction, and so on.

I use to hold this latter view, but my take on Wyrd has been evolving. I see it as being somewhere between these two extremes, similarly to the concept of time in the #DoctorWho franchise. There are certain fixed points that must happen no matter what. Some of these are simply the consequence of earlier actions. Others have been ordained by the gods, perhaps to ensure something in their bigger plans happen. In the Norse sagas, we sometimes see the gods ordaining some fate for an individual, but I believe it's generally events that are ordained and the actors and circumstances are fluid.

Within these confines, I believe there is much fluidity within Wyrd. Our actions influence our Wyrd and those around us.

A few weeks ago I asked the fediverse for #occult zines. Since then I’ve found some gems which I’d like to share back with you all. #helleborezine is great. #wyrd also. Rites and Declarations, Grimoire Silvanus and Myth & Lore are all on order and will arrive soon.

Not only are the stories fantastic, but Benjamin Lacombe's art is to die for.

I have been working on my commitment to being as weird as I imagined I would be at this age. It's likely been the most freeing practice of my life. It's basically just unmasking, in terms of neurospiciness, and it feels like thriving.
