I've been reading and completed Jhenah Telyndru's "Avalon Within" and am part of a study group for Avalonianism. I've studied bits and pieces about Avalon over the years, and of course have always been drawn to Arthurian mythos, but this group is one where we are actually DOING as well as learning.

I have yet to complete even the basic journey or Imram to Avalon, but I hope to break through whatever blockages I have and begin. Yet, all good things come with time and persistence.

In many ways, I think I have already addressed some of my own inner issues, or at the least identified them, but I know I have a long, long way to go to become the best me that I can be. Within the Avalonian path, we learn to overcome our shadow-selves, using the knowledge and insight we gain to become the best vessel for the Goddess that we can be. A very personal journey to Avalon, indeed. One that will continue as long as I do.

I have always felt close to the Goddess, always felt that connection and unity with Her. I know that I am Her daughter, and that She is within me. This study, journey, growth is to strengthen and reinforce that.

As we go along we will be reading other books, discussing our feelings, experiences, intuitions. I think it is a wonderful group, and I am glad to be a part of it.

and you ask, what about your dedication to Brigid? I am still and will always be a daughter of Brigid. I believe she is with me on this journey. Although the Avalonian path works with the Welsh pantheon, I believe that Brigid is there, as well, and not only in her guise of St. Bridget. Whatever her name, She IS, still.
