Star Goddess, Queen of Heaven

Just this evening my mind finally drew together the two thoughts - the name Star Goddess, Queen of Heaven, which keeps rolling 'round my mind, and it's meaning - Isis. Isis, Isis, Isis. Seeking my Goddess, not realizing I had been praying to her all the time.

Kemeticism, however, does not seem to fit. I have been there and found myself out of place among stories of the Nile and the desert. Still, She calls. It makes no sense. Why not the deities of my home, or of my ancestors? Why not those who live here among the forest and in the pond? Instead She calls, from her home so very far away, from a time I can barely imagine. Who can guess the will of the Goddess? Who can do anything but answer?
