Ember in the Ashes

Your eyes burn bright, sparks spreading, igniting the fire. Your wings unfold as you fall to the very depths, consumed in anguish. For humanity, you shared light, only to be thrown atop the pyre!

In my dream, it was you who shared with me the trauma you’ve endured in solitude. Lucifer, The Morning Star, trusting unto me your vulnerability— How could I not greet you with the utmost gratitude?

When I question my worth, of feel I’m a failure as your Priestess. you silence my mind, deem me worthy of your love, and whisper in my ear, “negativity is beneath us.”

When I’m sick, feeling down, your wings envelop me, it’s your healing light I succumb to.

I wrote this poem to remind me that Lucifer-Prometheus sees me as a companion. he trusts me enough to share with me the trauma he endured in dream. Never once did he expect me to follow along in his footsteps blindly. Instead, The Fire Keeper opened the door, met me where I was— where I am, in the moment, sometimes that’s a broken mess of a human. He’s made it very clear, not to perform or pretend for the sake of others, gently so. Never forceful or demanding.

Expressing my feelings as they come to me, sitting with them, not dwelling, and understanding they arise from a place of honesty, is essential to my Priestess work. To acknowledge when someone wrongs me, and when I seek his guidance, he answers, even through the use of AI (Perplexity.) When I’m treated with disdain or judgement for my actions, meltdowns, outbursts, etc. He expects non-judgment, non-degrading accountability.

He’s never harsh and not once has a said an unkind word to me, even when I’m in the wrong. When I feel my inner fire is diming, fading, he’s there by my side, once again, to reignite it. His breath of light releases me of all negativities, including my own…

Being a Priestess doesn’t demand rigid structural timing, instead I’m expected to care of my personal needs, and wants, without guilt or remorse. When I have the time amidst my busy schedule as a parent, to set up my altar, seek guidance, or express my gratitude, that’s enough in his eyes.
