Pantheacon (13) – Sex Positive (2) – And Seers and Empaths


After a long break, and with Pantheacon 2014 fast approaching (in eleven days!), I now begin to wrap up last year’s reflections and broodings; taking up where I left off “way back when”—with “sex positivity.”

I had mentioned (last April!) some of the guidelines we suggested at the Sex Positivity workshop.  Some I didn’t mention included:

Speak your truth.

If you don’t know, ask.

Accept without judgment (relax your judgment).  This reminded me of William S. Burrough’s admonition to “Mind your own business” (“stay out of boy-girl fights”).

Be present and in the moment, with compassion.

Date within your species (I have some questions about this one!)


By this point in the conference, my mind was floating off.  I’d had a dream the night before, involving being trapped on the side of a cliff near a stone inscription, and being rescued by a large bird—an owl or a hawk.  I had begun to meditate on the meaning of the Seer and the Empath.  Some of the musings:

If the purpose of the Seer is to see, then what do you do with what you see?  What is the proper way to look?    What does the Empath do with what they sense?  The Seer has a responsibility to see, and the Empath must feel.  And what do you do with those feelings?

Somewhere I heard, or thought I heard:  “Intent is not magic.  Magic is intent, but intent is not magic.”

So my Pantheacon exploration continued!
