Asking for Help :)
Hi everybody! I'm writing this post to you because I really need to save up some funds. In just over a month and a half, I'll be going to college. This is so exciting for me! However, I need to save up for a laptop, as well as a few other needs for my dorm room.
So, because of this, I thought I'd share my sh0p with y'all. You absolutely do NOT have to buy anything! Even a reblog or like would be helpful 💖
These are the listings as of right now:
- Oracle Pulls ($6)
- Deity Confirmations ($8)
- Deity Identifications ($10)
- Deity Message ($12)
- Channeled Letters ($20-$25)
- Custom Deity Candles ($27)
- Channeled Blind Date w/ a Book/Movie ($20-$35)
I think these are reasonably priced given what you receive in these listings!! I'm always open to reviews, suggestions, questions, and comments.
Here is the link to my sh0p if you'd like to take a look. I really appreciate the support I've been given so far. As always, take care of yourselves 🫶

Yo can we talk about that time Persephone snatched someone to the Underworld because she stopped worshipping Artemis?
Tumblr media
Artemis: There's a woman who stopped worshipping me, so I shoot her but let her live.
Persephone, who just dragged said woman to the Underworld: Don't worry bestie, I took care of the rest for you.

Some Aphrodite facts for people who want to know more!!
✶She’s the mother of Hermaphroditus, the god of effeminacy and the origin of the word hermaphrodite. They’re an intersex person born with male and female characteristics.
✶ Aphrodite was believed to have a magical girdle (or belt) called the "Cestus," which could enhance her irresistible allure and seductive powers.
✶ In addition to her romantic and sexual aspects, Aphrodite was also revered as a protectress of sailors, offering safe passage across the seas.
✶ She was also worshipped as a protector of prostitutes and courtesans, reflecting her association with love and desire in all its forms.
✶ Aphrodite's name originated from the word Sea-foam.
✶ The dove, The affectionate white or turtle-dove was the bird of love, was a bird sacred to the goddess Aphrodite. Doves were said to draw her heavenly chariot, and the Syrian Aphrodite Ashtarte was said to have been hatched from an egg nursed by doves.

To the pagans of Tumblr, does anyone know any like underworld or such deities to work with? Despite being centred in my beliefs, I'm still having a bit of trouble believing in an afterlife 😭 If anyone can recommend anyone to reach out to that would be much appreciated! While I mainly worship Norse and Greek deities, I am happy to accept other suggestions providing they aren't from closed practices. Thank you!

Witchy Resources
Astrology
Cafe Astrology - does your birth chart and it’s presented in a really cute way imo. It also gives you info about each placement and you can check compatibility and stuff too
Co—Star - I downloaded is the other day, it gives you quick daily horoscopes, do’s and dont’s for the day, and a longer breakdown of the horoscope
Dream work
Little Book of Dreams - I got this at a local store but you can get it for £4. It’s really cute and small, with just little summaries for what common dreams mean. It’s very simple but good for beginners in dream work
Deity worship (These are specific to Hellenism. You don’t have to worship Greek deities to be a witch but it’s what I have resources on because it’s what I follow)
Wikipedia - no seriously. It has info on so many different deities and their mythology so it’s actually quite useful.
r/Hellenism - a good place to ask questions if you’re new to deity worship and get some SPG on less common deities. Be sure to fact check
Amino - there’s a couple of Greek mythology and Hellenist communities on here. Like with Reddit, fact check!
Theoi.com - so much basic info on various deities, and it’s got epithets and things too that Wikipedia doesn’t have.
Tarot
Nata Soul Taro - probably the best pick a pile tarot readers I’ve found on YouTube. she also has a website and does personal readings. The videos are very calming and often really accurate
Zodianz - gives you three tarot cards and their meanings. Includes whether they’re yes or no, zodiac signs, planets and elements that correspond with each card, keywords for the card and then a short paragraph about the meaning. It also gives the meaning of the numbers in the card (like in 8 cups it tells you about 8)
If anyone knows any websites where you can learn tarot meanings let me know and I’ll add them to this list
Spell work
The Works - if you’re British, The Works has a lot of trinket boxes that you can keep spell ingredients in, and some potion bottles which are meant for crafts but they’re perfect for spell jars
Witchipedia - has some basic info about spells and some simple ones that you can do without needing many tools. Perfect for broom closeted witches, beginners or witches who can’t afford fancy stuff.
@strangesigils has some posts on common sigil methods, or, you can use some of their existing sigils!
Shadow work
Pinterest - I’m not kidding Pinterest has some great shadow work prompts if you just type in shadow work. Some are meh and some are really good
Co—Star - as well as astrology this also has a section where you can write a message to yourself and it’ll pop up the next time the stars are in the same position as they were when you wrote it
Crystal work
Holly’s Hope Beads - handmade crystal jewellery! My mum knows the girl who owns it and I’ve gotten a few pieces here. Really pretty and good quality

Himeros & Eros (desire/love) - some notes + process below. ❤️ twitter ❤️
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Sometimes love & desire can be indistinguishable from one another. While I love the idea of Eros as Aphrodite and Ares child. This particular interpretation is more to the primordial Eros, the uniting power of love that brought order and harmony to chaos. Making him one of the oldest gods rather than one of the youngest.

☀️Deities☀️
I see so many people criticizing others over their relationships, or lack thereof, with their deities, so here are some reminders:
Not having deities is okay.
Having just a devotional relationship with your deities is okay.
Having a working relationship with your deities is okay.
Playing games with your deities is okay.
Harmless jokes with your deities are okay.
Doing fun things with your deities is okay.
Doing devotional offerings for your deities is okay.
Giving physical offerings to your deities is okay.
Not being able to do certain offerings for deities is okay.
Having an altar for your deities is okay, no matter the size.
Not having an altar for your deities is okay.
Laughing with your deities is okay.
Crying with your deities is okay.
Having genuine conversations with your deities is okay.
Being unable to hear/see deities is okay.
Being able to hear/see deities is okay.
Not being able to communicate through divination is okay.
Using divination as a key element in communication is okay.
Not calling on deities during spellwork is okay.
Asking deities to help during spellwork is okay.
Asking deities for help in general is okay.
This is your relationship with your deities in your practice. Don't let anyone tell you what you can and can't do. 🫶
It's 2am, please forgive me if there are any mistakes!

Surprise attack! Talk about whatever you’re really into right now! Can be anything just tell us about what you’re personally passionate about and have been looking for an excuse to rant about! >:D
I want to ramble about Hyacinthus of Sparta, but right now I don't have the time and energy to write an essay about him.
So, have this iceberg meme summarizing everything I know or am still researching about him!

The gods' beauty matches their domains, meaning they're far more gorgeous than we can imagine.
Aphrodite rivals the beauty of the sun setting over an ocean's horizon as you stand on the shore, the water tickling your feet as it pulled in and pushed back out repeatedly by the waves. Poseidon exceeds the beauty found deep within the ocean's waters, from vibrantly colored coral reefs to the very denizens that live within the seas - he's more beautiful than them all. Apollo surpasses the beauty of the morning light cast through your curtains by the rising sun, of the songs that send chills throughout your body and tears to your eyes, of even the most intricately crafted poems with passion and emotion stamped on to each letter. Hermes glows radiantly with beauty that extends past the feeling of freedom when you ride a bicycle without help for the first time, or the feelings of awe and wonder you experienced on your first trip away from home, or that feeling of wholeness when you watch a smile take shape on someone else's face because of something you said or did.
The gods are more beautiful than the very domains they preside over. Their beauty cannot be put into mere human words. To describe them is to underestimate the sheer potency of their beauty. But I hope I've at least been able to put some of it into perspective.
