Spirituality is slowly being stripped away from our communities and everyday routines. Religion is perhaps less influential among some circles in modern times but has largely been replaced by nothing. This song accounts for a specific rogue practice that at one time in history was deemed sacrilegious in the eyes of a growing monotheistic religion. I began thinking about how essentially erasing these practices (that were largely rooted in the worship of nature) impacted western philosophy and how it continues to shape our environment. I see many lingering traces of these early attempts to distance our connection to the natural world and am frustrated by the continued sabotage of the innate wonder and beauty we attempt to maintain.
