Sekhmet Rising Finally finished this older collab with the very talented Anisis! I made the sketch years ago, which she then turned into incredible lineart. As I recently went on a trip to Egypt it inspired me to finish this artwork featuring one of my favorite goddesses. I think many of us were obsessed with Egyptology as a kid and to finally see all the ancient temples, statues and art in real life really took my breath away and I have no proper words to describe this experience...the heat and cramps were worth it and so much more (photos will come later when I find the energy to do so).

Yall…. Stop bathing in grocery store rose petals.

Stop using them in teas and salves and skin toner too.

Mass produced roses like the ones we find in grocery stores of flower shops are beautiful! - By design.. And “by design” I mean by chemicals and pesticides. They’ll wreck your skin far more than help (especially if you have sensitivities or allergies[ @ me] ). Make sure ANY flowers or herbs or roots you use are certified for culinary or therapeutic use. Get them from credible places. And use common sense.

Free advice, take it or leave it.

Hey while we're talking transphobia, can we start coming down harder on people who are like "Aphrodite hates men!" "Men can't love like women can!" etc.? Like idk maybe I was just in shitty circles but that is outright terf shit that a lot of people let slide. I burst into tears the moment I came out to myself as a trans man, because I'd seen so much of that shit that I thought that being a man meant I was giving up my ability to love, my worth, and my connection to one of my gods >_<

Hey, Nonny, thank you for the ask.

Personally, I haven't seen this type of behavior, but of course, that doesn't mean it isn't a problem. I'm so sorry to hear about your experience, though, and I really hope you got away from those shitty circles. I appreciate you bringing this to my attention and the attention of others. 🫂

I have, however, heard the argument that Artemis hates men - I think this is the most common anti-men rhetoric I've heard within the HelPol community. It's shocking to hear people say the same things about Aphrodite, of all the goddesses. That's not only untrue but is clearly these people using a goddess to further their shitty narrative and push it onto others.

Aphrodite literally has a relationship with Ares, whom many connect with masculinity (this is more SPG/UPG, I think). It'd be bizarre for her to hate men and still have several affairs with the god Ares, in my opinion. It's just insanely bizarre to hear that people actually think this way. It makes absolutely no sense, based upon mythos, ancient beliefs, and both personal and shared experiences with the gods. I'm sorry that people were spreading such blatant lies to you.

Aphrodite does NOT hate men. Men are very capable of love. There is nothing wrong with being male. None of the goddesses will hate you for being a man.

I hope you are well and that you take good care of yourself. Have a nice day/night. 🧡🫂

The Evermore Grimoire: Mythology

Ma'at was the goddess of truth, justice, balance and most importantly order in Egyptian mythology. She represented the crucial concept of how the universe was maintained. The ancient Egyptians believed the universe had an order to it, and it was Ma’at who kept everything in balance which helped them develop a strong sense of morality and justice. Ma’at was also extremely important in achieving the afterlife. After the death of the body, the soul then had to pass through the Hall of Judgment, where a person’s heart was weighed on a scale against Ma’at’s feather of truth. If the deceased heart balanced with the feather, they could continue their journey to the afterlife. If not, their journey ended.

I had a dream where the only part I vividly remember is a bible-style verse that mentioned Lucifer in a positive light, Lilith: 6-66 and I don’t know what that means

Asmodeus

One of the Goetic demons of Hell and a King, under the command of Lucifer. This information was shared to me by Asmodeus and is also my own experiences through working with this marvelous being. 

Some of his other names: Asmoday, Sidonay

Rulerships: passion, sex, valour, inner-strength, dedication, protection, compassion, healing, destruction, desire, willpower, and other matters of the heart 

History: Asmodeus is one of the many ancient gods who pledged themselves to Lucifer, to serve him in his Kingdom after the Rebellion against the Abrahamic god. Lucifer is the divine Light of Creation who led the way for freedom and empowered the other deities who followed him. Asmodeus as a god is connected to the land of Sidon and is a Lord of the Seas, showing his closeness to the realm of emotions. He is also very close to his High King and Queen- Lucifer and Lilith, for they see each other as family. 

Rank: King Elements: Fire, Water, and Air Colours: Black, red, and silver 

Appearance: A strong and attractive young man with shoulder-length black hair, fiery orange-yellow eyes (like burning embers), black draconic wings, and ram horns. When angered, his hair catches in flames and burns to become short, blazing like embers. His horns become more prominent, and his eyes become even more fiery. He goes into battle with a staff or sword commonly, but sometimes with a mace. The dragon he is sometimes seen riding is a trusted friend of his from ages past. He can also appear as a bull or ram, which are aspects of his. His traditional art which shows him as having three heads is simply a symbolization of this. 

Personality: Asmodeus is tremendously strong at heart and holds a great deal of wisdom and passion. Overall, he has a very resilient and noble attitude, and is also connected to lust and domination, as he indulges in sexual pleasures. Asmodeus enjoys luxury and sensuality, but can also be very dark and serious when needed, and can become quickly impatient with those who earn his disfavour. He can also feel war-like at times, but in a way that is similar to heroism. But his darker side, however, is called Asmodai, who is one of the most destructive and terrifying of all the demons.

Asmodeus is a master of emotions and knows how to rapidly gain favour by playing to the emotions of crowds, masses, or even single persons. He doesn’t have to lie, he simply uses emotional reasoning to appeal to peoples’ hearts in order to be convincing. He tends to be very kind-hearted, loyal, passionate, and steadfast. 

What he can do: gaining inner-strength of all kinds, creating compassion between foes and friends, protection, destruction of abusers, justified revenge, connecting with sexuality, becoming adept at emotional persuasion, overcoming obstacles 

His Enn (for meditation or devotion): Ayer avage aloren Asmoday aken

Offerings: naturally made lemonade (pure lemons squeezed with some water and a dash of spearmint), absinthe, Jack Daniels no7, sweet wine, spiced rum, lemonade, goat meat, steak, chestnuts, pineapples, lemons, limes, apricots, honey, chocolate with rum, orchids, sunflowers, roses, axes, maces, ornate swords, ivory tusks, bull horns, ram horns, ibex horns, narwhal horns, gold foil in oil, rubies, peridots, carnelians, images of wildfires by the sea, and black or red candles. Incense of Mastiq resin + benzoin + vanilla. 

*He also deeply appreciates the energy of love as an offering
