Occasionally I wandered in where I was not wanted and gave truthful answers.
Sometimes I even did it deliberately. A little disruption now can prevent disaster later.

Train

Dad loved trains.

Not the model toys. The real thing.

But especially steam trains.

I know some don’t consider trains very pagan. Not enough Nature. Destructive to the environment. Too human.

But I’m a technopagan. I know that technology is a god gift just as much as wine. Gods brought us the forge and smithing. Gods brought us agriculture. Gods taught us curiousity.

Thanks to gods, we have to Manifest.

It’s still the Spark of Inspiration.

Humans are a part of nature. So are human tools and technology. The trick is to find the balance. A dynamic tension between the World and our Manifestation.

A way to leave the place better than how we found it.

I also admire steampunk. So yes, steam trains really appeal. I’ve many pictures.

This is a iPhone background picture. I found it in web wandering. If you look hard enough this picture expresses technopaganism in a way that just words can’t.

Of course if I add certain words, you might get still a better idea.

This is my life. I'd like to share part of it with you.

Dancing in the border between light and shadow. Drawn to the rhythm of reconstructed faiths while reaching for life among the stars. Living in a fabricated city and dreaming deep green thoughts tinged with bloodred life. Riding the surge of evolution and change along an unexplored way.

I am a technopagan. I seek the Divine in human, nature and machine. My name here reflects that. Neo meaning new, sometimes used as a prefix before pagan to describe the modern revival of paganism. Wayland was the name a mythical smith who worked wonders at his forge. I've been told that Wayland is also the name of a mystical place halfway between darkness and light.

I want to find the synthesis between mankind and ideas, between faith and technology, between what was and what will be.

My tools are words carried by electrons. The electrons link you, me, and countless others in a living web of information and ideas unrivaled in human history.

Maybe together we can find the forge for a better future.
