goatgodschildIt has been a busy month, with two primary holidays to work on. But now that the Funeral of the Sun King has passed, I have begun to focus my attentions to the arrival of the Changeling next Friday.
The Changeling is a difficult figure for me to access, which is why I have thrown myself into this work, as best I can.
I know she must be greeted with the home in good order, for it is the business of the Changeling to put herself in, to etch on a clean slate. I am preparing to be as feminine as I can, or at least as youthful. In this, I have prepared myself by shaving my face (though not brows) and all my body. I have shaved my shoulders, but not my back, as I cannot reach it fully. The rest of me is quite shaved, and has left a great deal of razor burn. Such is the nature of the work we do. My hair is cut, and soon my nails will be done as well -- painted, even.
For my mind, I am reading a great deal of books with Changeling themes, although so far I have not liked them as much as I would like. But there is time yet.
