Alone In Her Presence: When Love Takes Over

Last updated on: November 5, 2014 at 8:00 am   By Erick DuPree

It's complicated, it always is, when we choose to be part of the solution on any issue. It's about bringing love into the dialogue. When I write about love, I am writing about that complicated driving force that accepts the challenge, that is sometimes angry, and is unmitigating. When we accept the challenge, love eventually does show. Read more

Alone In Her Presence: Halloween – Inviting the Secular

Last updated on: October 22, 2014 at 1:30 pm   By Erick DuPree

Personally, I like my Halloween with green faced ‘witches’ and candy corn, trick or treating, and carved pumpkins. Oh, how I love candy corn and a jack-o-lantern! Sure, some of those items have folkloric history in pagan-based cultures, but I want to bob apples and throw lavish parties while eating candy corn till my stomach hurts. Read more

Alone In Her Presence: The Goddess Is In The Dirt

Last updated on: September 24, 2014 at 8:00 am   By Erick DuPree

For years, I heard the Christian expression to ‘lean on God’ in times of struggle, strife, and turmoil. But for many, and for centuries, that God isn't or wasn't an option. What if there was another option? What if we leaned on Earth and instead of the cup of salvation that Christianity offers, we sought to nurture the healing vessel of a Earth Mother? Read more

Alone In Her Presence: Choosing Love Over Fear

Last updated on: September 10, 2014 at 8:00 am   By Erick DuPree

When I speak of love, it is not abstract, and it is not romantic or romanticized. It is action that is holy. Read more

Alone In Her Presence: Embodied Living, Tantra and I?

Last updated on: August 29, 2014 at 1:43 pm   By Erick DuPree

Tantra is the magic of transformation. It is the magic of bringing self into alignment and aligning our hearts with the Goddess as both the Immanent love that flows in, among, and around us, and also the transcendent exalted from which all blessings flow. Read more

Alone In Her Presence: On Death – Riding Shakti’s Great Exhale

Last updated on: August 1, 2014 at 1:54 pm   By Erick DuPree

Death kindly seems to be stopping everywhere I look these days, in the faces of those whom I adore and care for, and in the hearts and minds of many within the world: death of loved ones, death of relationships, and even the death of nations. Perhaps Earth herself? Whether by choice or happenstance, death is stopping to remind us of Her part in the ebb and flow. Do you resist her invitation? How does the person practicing alone grow from the experience of death? Read more

Alone In Her Presence: Earth’s Saving Message

Last updated on: July 25, 2014 at 9:44 pm   By Erick DuPree

As I lean into the invitation of Earth's promise to renew, there is a certainty that now is the hour to commit to Earth with a saving message. I choose to enter covenant with Earth as Mother Goddess and nurture her as the life giver. Read more

Alone In Her Presence: Ecstatic Monism – All Goddess…

Last updated on: July 4, 2014 at 2:11 pm   By Erick DuPree

I am an ecstatic monist, and I know there are many like me who are something like "spiritual but not religious" and not quite Wiccan, who are not Neo Goddess Feminist but are living in the lap of the Great Mother. Like me, these men and women are "all Goddess all the time" and are Alone In Her Presence. For us, the ecstatic monist Goddess is the immanent vessel that dwells within each of us and that is us, She that is the totality of everything and nothing. Read more
