A friend of mine, [livejournal.com profile] orthaevelve, has been running an otherkin meetup at a local pagan store here in Northern Virginia. For the last few months, I've been attending it. It's been a mixed bag, some nights I've really enjoyed the group that has shown up, other nights I could really do without some people being there. Overall, it's been a positive experience, though.

At last night's meeting, there was a group of students from a college down in Richmond. They're studying subcultures for a communications class presentation, and somehow they'd found their way to the otherkin subculture. I have to say, they were among the most respectful outsiders I've ever seen asking questions of a group of otherkin, and they'd really done their homework in advance.

During the course of the evening, one of them started asking about a device that she'd heard of being involved with some otherkin awakenings. A few questions revealed that she was talking about the Matrix, and had read about it in Eyovah's awakening story. But she hadn't stopped there. She said she became a little obsessed with finding out more about it, and had kept searching online until she found a picture of it. Which she found. On my website.

And she just happens to show up at a meeting that I happen to attend, asking about it.

Seems to me like someone decided I needed a reminder to keep active on the Matrix Work... ain't synchronicity grand?
