Hello! 🙂
This is a post to let you know that I changed my username from "Yagami Light" to "Ariadne the Scribe".
I dedicated to Zeus and have been using "Yagami Light" since I was a teenager.

Yagami Light is an egotistic, ego-maniac character from an anime called "Death Note" - and I actually used to love that character. I used to love the ability of "making things right" by writing someone's name on a death note. I recognized Yagami Light's arrogance, yet I enjoyed it. My perception of power and the way to inspire respect to others was very poor - and it remained like that for more years than I'd like to admit.

In time, I started disliking the character, but I never considered changing my username. I thought that "people know me with this username; how can I change it now?"

The truth is that, along with my dislike toward this fictional character, I also changed a lot as a person. Thanks to the meditations and the Gods and Goddesses, thanks to Zeus, and thanks to Brothers and Sisters who have advised me, and the High Priests and High Priestesses who have guided all of us here, I have changed a lot.
I was a weird girl with a very bad attitude. I had serious mental and psychological hangups extending from past lives. I hated myself and my gender. I hated every part that made me who I am - and instead of doing anything about it, I chose to focus on self-pity, to further enhance the bad attributes of myself, and to making negative thoughts all the time, listening to sad songs, imagining how people would react if I died, etc...

I feel self-conscious writing about these things now, but this is the kind of person that I was. A part of it was immaturity - but the biggest part of it was the way I was raised and my... inability? Fear? Perhaps, fear, of standing on my own two feet. I never thought of myself as worthy enough in spite of the experiences I had with the Gods.

To this day, there are still so many things I need to change in myself. Things like mental and psychological programming I received from an early age, but also things that extend to past lives' traumas and mentality.
I have become more conscious on some of these things (certain habits and a certain mindset that work to my detriment), but I haven't yet consciously dealt with them in a mental (changing my perspective) and spiritual (healing workings) way.

And yet, in spite of these setbacks, I have grown. I have gotten out of my comfort zone. I have learned to admit to my mistakes, I have learned to say "I don't know," and "I'm sorry, I was wrong." I have even learned to tell my dad "I love you," which is a word I always had difficulty expressing.

I still have a lot to learn. I still have a long way ahead of me, but life's a journey, anyway. :)

As for the choice behind my current username, in all the years I've been dedicated, I have given to the Gods and the Zevists in my own ways. I had done animated meditation videos to help our Brothers and Sisters who had difficulty visualizing (but also to bring a few outsiders on our path by giving them some information that could be found on our website). I then created comics that I did not share here because their purpose was to reach outsiders (and I didn't want the outsiders to know of my religious beliefs for obvious safety reasons).
And now, I'm working on a book. :)
I have decided to pursue writing as a career because I have so, so, so many stories in my head, and I will be the most happy I'll ever be in my life if I can make people remember our Gods and Goddesses and to understand and feel all the love our Gods have for us. This is my goal as a writer. I want to bring people closer to the Gods.
And for all my life, I hope and I pray that I will always be able to give something to the Gods in some way. Either through my art or my interaction with other people. I hope to always offer something to the Gods. I know that I could never possibly express with words how thankful and grateful I am for all the love they have given me, and for all the times they've stood by my side when I felt so alone...

"Ariadne" is a name that I chose after some research, which means "very pure/sacred." It's a character that can also be found in Greek mythology.
I really like it (and it makes me feel an elated feeling) as I want to be pure as a person (spiritually). I want to overcome bad karma, to rise spiritually, and to become wise.

So, that's why I changed my username, and that's a little bit of my story in this path. :)
 
I noticed your new name in VT, I thought this person seems familiar but I couldn't put it together.

Thank you for sharing your story and your path of growth, you have no idea who it may help and who may relate to it, and thank you for the courtesy of announcing when you change your name, especially since you've built a presence in the community. I remember you and some of the things you shared from years ago when I was new.

Yagami Light is a character that's already written, this character will never grow and change, there is no character development left for him. But for Ariadne the Scribe, there is a lifetime left of development, and lifetimes after.
 
Hello to the entire community!

A simple little word to say that I changed my username. I was Melchidan, I am now Trishula. My new name has been approved and I thank the administrators of this wonderful forum!

Having progressed a lot in my spiritual journey through my presence at the forum, through my readings and meditations, thanks to our powerful Gods, I agreed that it was time for me to take a more appropriate name, a name that would be more in line with what inspires me in the presence of our Gods and Goddesses!

So I took the name of TRISHULA which is the Trident of Shiva!

The Trishula, or trident, is one of the main attributes of the god of destruction Shiva. It puts an end to erroneous views and lies – Destroys bad thoughts – Allows us to separate from what overwhelms us in order to feel better.

The symbolism of the trishula is complex and rich. The three points have different meanings, and, like many symbols in the Hindu religion, have many legends about them. It is generally said that they represent various trinities: the Trimourti, for example, composed of Brahma (the Creator), Vishnu (the Preserver) and Shiva (the Destroyer).

They can also represent cyclical time: past, present and future which, for the Hindus, do not stop repeating each other...

When it is considered a weapon of Shiva, the trishula is said to destroy the three worlds: the physical world, the ancestral world and the spirit world.

All my gratitude to our Creator Father and our Gods!
