So turns out my brother in law is a witch and he said he has sent blessings and done a protection spell for my dad… which is like super sweet. Like idk, it feels really nice to have someone not Christian give blessings/prayers/etc.
Anyway I think I've been doing a bit better. It's been 4 days. Obviously it's going to take a long time for me to recover, but I think I'm finally starting to process everything that happened.
I've returned with more knowledge and some attempts to be covertly witchy while living with a father who recently admitted to once being pagan and knows everything
I have been unable to try anything since.
I've also become slightly more okay with the idea of working with deities at some point, but right now I have way too much healing to do with how my Christianity has messed with my relationship with any sort of deity worship, so that's still something far into the future for me. There's truly not much I can do at this point but research and try to keep learning

I'm sorry for your loss Bec, and I hope you get the time you need to take care of yourself and process. I'll pray for you too.

Good on you for doing what you wanna do m8
If you wanna research something but don't have the time/resources, you could ask this chat and I'm sure someone has the random knowledge you want to acquire lol
I haven't been worshipping or anythign lately, but I keep seeing the signs I saw when Aphrodite was trying to signal me like "hey, come work with me"
is this a sign to go back to working with her you think?
Why are there so many harvest festivals
Maybe, or maybe it's a sign to start worshiping her (without all the spell work and obligations). Maybe she knows worshiping her, as a goddess of self love and stuff, it can help you benefit you as well. Spending time meditating on her qualities of charm, grace, love, and self actualization can help you gain self power and love, and guide you into being your truest self.
Why are there so many harvest festivals
BECAUSE THEY'RE FUN

BECAUSE THEY'RE FUN
But do we really need three

One for wheat, one for everything else, and one to make sure you got everything :)
That reminded me how my church wants to do trick or treating every year, but they think Halloween is evil so they call it "harvest festival"
Who's gunna tell em that's just as pagan-
In fact it's more accurate to paganism than the modern American Halloween tradition
I really love prayer beads and the rosary but I just be running out of beads man
Or I don't have enough of the type I like, or I can't decide how to string them
Like do I want them in weeks or decades?
A one decade or five decade?
Will these little beads be comfortable?
Will I ever even use these?
I'm sorry for your loss Bec, and I hope you get the time you need to take care of yourself and process. I'll pray for you too.
Really appreciate it <3
I've been doing a lot better, especially understanding what happened a little more now.
Happy Autimnal Equinox everyone! Have a blessed day.
Theoretically. How would one go about making a deal with a deity?
One shouldn't because it requires intense commitment.
By why do you want to?
So my altar has bad vibes right?
OKOKOK so I have this black shelf/hook thing that I use on my altar to dry my flowers and it's on there pretty darn good and it just fell and scared the shit out of me. I put it back up, securely, and it fell again. I know it's probably this little known thing called gravity but ohhhhhh freaky time
I got Rose Quartz, set its intention, and all that stuff and I was fiddling with it while thinking about the guy I met and danced with at homecoming and have been crushing on after the dance. Literally a few minutes later at lunch he asked me out.
ooo congrats!
My friend bought this necklace from a witchcraft shop and we're not sure what it is.
Camera quality is really bad so here is something similar I found online. It has a little bit of blue.
Did a disheartening experiment just now that shows that there's no evidence that my intuition, and my pendulum that is only slightly better, actually helps. At least with guessing numbers 1-4. Guess I need to ~practice~
@SpaceCat446 I’d say that looks like raw Dalmatian Jasper! It helps to dispel nightmares

I was thinking that too but the black is more speckles than dots. It's the closest I've found tho lol
here to gush about the box im subscribed to. its called the witches roots and they pick a monthly herb and build you a spell kit and everything around it. its super affordable, smells great, and comes with fun things! i got some cute runes and a big ol green aventurine in the september one, which was themed after the herb Thyme and its properties in connecting to your magical Eye and dreams
I know witchcraft isn't a substitute for medical attention but I would rather just draw sigils on myself until the doctor's office I can actually get to calls me than pay a shit ton of money out of pocket for several appointments that are an hour away and I have no way to get to
Oof. Healthcare is difficult.
Witchcraft has helped my physical health (and my mental health DRASTICALLY in many ways) by making me more aware of what's organic and what's not, what's good for my body and what's not. The closer to the Earth, the better. The more water, the better. Fresh air and connecting with nature is a big new craving of mine, but this summer the air quality was so smoky it was literally toxic, and come winter we'll have inversion.
I use sigils and stuff for small things, like acne.
Putting intention into everything and noticing the magic in everything has definitely made me more health-conscious.
I keep forgetting to wash my face so moon water is the only thing keeping my skin from looking like I have some kind of biblical plague lol
Apparently, according to my tradition, I shouldn't eat blackberries after Samhain until Imbolg :(
What if my mom buys me blackberries
Man the púcaí can just keep it I guess 😭
