Throughout Star Wars Canon and Legends, hordes of Jedi turned to the dark side. Some, you know well, like Anakin Skywalker and Ben Solo. Others are more obscure in the franchise and appear before or after the Skywalker Saga. Temptations led many Jedi astray. They either held self-centered interests, or, like Anakin, succumbed to …
Metaphysical and religious thought exists among the Jedi living in the Star Wars Universe. And that religious ideology has come to our galaxy.

Padawans refer to their trainers as ‘Master.’ However, this is a sign of respect, and their trainer is not always a Jedi Master.

Who do you send when you want to get rid of a Jedi? Sith? No. Clone Troopers? No, but that’s close. Bounty hunters? We’re getting warmer! The answer is a Mandalorian. Are they a race? Is it a creed? Is it the way? Yes! And no. In a rare form of unity that combines canon …
The moment we are born, we begin learning. It starts by simply learning our parents’ voices and how to adjust to life outside the womb.

Duel-wielding is both cooler and a lot harder than using a single lightsaber, or any fighting style that involves using both hands.

Jediism’s roots may lie in the fictional Star Wars Universe. However, many fans and even those looking to develop their personal relationship with a higher power have adopted the Jedi way of life as a real religion.

Dieting has always been a touchy topic for most people in life. Whether you are strictly vegan or subscribe to a keto diet, your diet is special to you. People from every angle of the diet spectrum butt heads, thinking that their way is the right way. This is completely wrong thinking, and fortunately, Star …
It’s not that the Jedi don’t use blasters; they will in times of great need, such as during the Rebellion Period in the Original Trilogy. Therefore, the lightsaber is their chosen weapon because it’s an extension of themselves. Blasters also don’t fit with a Jedi’s calling, which is to serve as peacekeepers and advisors. They …
