hi! i’m not sure if you work with tyche, but if you do: can i ask what personal signs you saw that made you realize? if not no worries :) luck symbols like four leaf clovers, ladybugs, etc have been following me so much…a dream about dice…
I honor Tyche often, but I don’t personally work with her. I do work with and worship other deities who I’ve gotten signs from, though! One example is Hera. I worship her and was called to her through signs. Lots of cows, peacocks, the works.
My personal rule is that if I see something I can consider a sign three times in a row, it’s a sign. I’d recommend choosing one thing (if you’d like) to focus on. You could simply ask for signs in general, I just tend to ask for one thing because my brain is too busy to recognize multiple signs. Ask to see three ladybugs. Three dice. Whatever you’d like!
I also want to point out that you do not need signs to work with or worship a deity! For deity work, I like to worship the deity for a bit to build up a relationship, then move on to work whenever I feel comfortable. It helps to establish an altar (if you want one) and to understand what exactly goes into worshipping said deity (their favorite offerings, the best prayers, etc.). But really, you don’t have to do that either. You can simply start working with a deity. If you believe a deity is reaching out, worship (or work with) them! Honestly, there’s no risks unless you are outwardly rude to them (and you’d know if you were being rude).
Good luck! Tyche is a lovely deity and she’s one of the minority that was worshipped in Ancient Greece, meaning there’s a lot of research about her. Have fun!

⛤Fairies, Elves and Vile in Slav History and Myth⛤
Many of us know a lot about Greek, Roman and Viking mythology but few of us have ever heard about Slavic folklore.
This is partly due to the attitude of the Church, which throughout history was mostly negative towards mythological beings, holidays and customs from Slavic mythology.
The myth of fairies (“vile”) is common to many Slavic peoples, and is one of the most widespread and oldest myths.
We get the first information about fairies in our area from Procopius of Caesarea (6th century), who says that the Slavs "respect rivers and nymphs, as well as other demons, and offer sacrifices to all of them, and on that occasion also do fortune-telling."
In Slavic mythology there are only fairies as supernatural beings, mysterious women who live in nature, mostly on mountains, by lakes and streams or in them, next to springs or in the ground, in special caves and pits.
Fairies resemble human women, boast a special beauty and have no wings.
They are tall and slender, with lush hair that is either loose or braided.
They wear white clothes, and sometimes they have a golden crown, a golden star or an evergreen wreath on their head.
In some stories, fairies have several physical flaws.
In one version, their hair stinks terribly, and in another version, instead of human feet, they have cat's paws, horse hooves or mule and donkey hooves, and goat or cow legs, which they then hide well.
Maybe that's why fairies love horses so much.
If someone's horse stays outside the barn overnight, they play with it until dawn and braid its mane.
Fairies are mostly good or neutral, but you have to be careful around them because they are easy to anger.
They help people by giving them useful things, they look after the flock while shepherds sleep, heal people with herbs or teach them which herbs have healing properties.
They show the way to a lost traveler, strengthen the soldiers and put to sleep a crying child in the cradle.
Sometimes the fairies make it a condition that the person to whom they gave the gift must not look at the gift until he gets home.
If the person bows down and looks, the gift turns into coal, eggshell, and the like.
The four-leaf clover is known in Slavic countries as fairy grass, and the person who finds it will bring luck and wealth, but also great misfortune if he throws the clover into the fire.
Admittedly, sometimes they know how to steal a child they particularly like (most often a beautiful and gifted child) and raise it as their own.
Sometimes they steal a child and plant their child instead (like changelings).
Although there are no elves, fairies like to seduce human youths and have offspring with them.
Men who are somehow related to the fairies are called elves, elves, or elves, but they are definitely of human origin.
If someone finds the fairies combing at the well, they take him with them.
They like to take revenge on humans if they break their oath or if they do not accept fairy friendship.
Those who accept fairy friendship often become clairvoyant or become skilled clairvoyants.
In addition to children, fairies also know how to kidnap adults.
A myth was recorded in Novigrad that says that fairies know how to kidnap a man and give him the knowledge of divination. They do this by taking him to the mountain where they live. The initiation of man takes place next to an old tree, which is a frequent initiation symbol in many mythologies.
It was also believed that fairies feed on honey, lambs, little pigs or eat lard.
Word comes that they ate the crumbs that were left on the table after people had eaten their meal.
Fairies do not drink water from anywhere but pure springs.
Sometimes their power was thought to reside in the golden belt or scarf they wore and if it was taken away, they lost their power.
That power was great, and this is best described by the legend that says that the Arena in Pula was built by fairies in one night.
They took stones from Učka and stacked them in a circle.
But fairies, in this version, are creatures of the night and when they heard the song of the first hen in the morning, they had to stop working.
Because of this, the Arena remained unfinished.
Suđenice (destinies, sujenices, birth women) are also some kind of fairy creatures that determine a person's fate at the moment of birth.
There are usually three judges who decide the child's fate after birth, and it will be as the last judge says.
They are invisible to people unless a person has a fern flower with them, and a woman in labor can hear them if she stays up all night.
In some regions, there was a custom of leaving food on the table, which the judges would then eat and then be gentle and benevolent in divination of the child's fate.
Women who claimed to be particularly skilled in healing and that fairies had taught them to do so were called elves.
There is a case dating back to 1660 when a notice was received "to the captain of Janjina in the Republic of Dubrovnik, Ivan Gučetić, that there were elves and witches in his captaincy". The captain ordered one of those elves to be brought because he was interested in what elves could do.
The elf replied that she knew how to heal and that she had been taught it by Aunt Vila, who appeared to her in a white robe, in the form of a nun.
She also claimed to be able to tell who was harmed by a witch and whether that person would recover or not.
From this statement, the mixing of the older mythology about fairies with newer Christian elements is obvious.
The reform of the Church, the fierce Protestant criticism of the situation in the Christian world of that time and the Council of Trent (1545-1563) initiated processes that strongly influenced Europe.
Namely, in addition to the reform of the Church, there was also a "reform of folk culture" when elves were put in a negative context, even though they had not previously attracted too much attention in church circles.
In the 17th century, elves were equated with witches, which meant that they were equally subject to persecution.
The practice of persecuting women accused of possessing supernatural powers was put to an end by Maria Theresa in 1756, and two years later, courts in Slavic countries were prohibited from conducting any trials against witches, elves and sorcery without the empress's direct permission.

♡ Irish Proverb Sentence Starters ♡
Feel free to adjust as needed!
He's as old as Methuselah’s cat
The longest way around is the shortest way home
Never scald your lips with another man’s porridge
You can’t make a silk purse out of a sows ear
I'm as awkward as a pig in a parlour
The older the fiddle, the sweeter the tune
Every man is sociable until a cow invades his garden
You've got to do your own growing, no matter how tall your father was
There's not a wise man without fault
A good laugh and a long sleep are the best cures in the doctor's book
May the saddest day of your future be no worse than the happiest day of your past
A good friend is like a four-leaf clover
Here's to a long life and a merry one. A quick death and an easy one. A pretty girl and an honest one. A cold pint and another one!
May you live as long as you want, and never want as long as you live.
May the wind always be at your back.
Forgetting a debt doesn’t mean it’s paid.
There is no such thing as bad publicity except your own obituary.
A good laugh and a long sleep are the two best cures.
Wherever you go and whatever you do, may the luck of the Irish be there with you.
It is often that a person’s mouth broke his nose.
Here’s to Hell! May the stay there be as fun as the way there!
There is only one thing worse than being talked about, and that is not being talked about.

aesthetics.
overgrown plants in a window seal, abundant laughter echoing in an empty room, coffee stained countertops. a sofie with major unresolved anger issues. clear phone case covered in pastel stickers. important reminders scribbled on her palm in permanent marker. the smell of freshly baked chocolate chip brownies. worn out sneakers. making every stranger her best friend. poorly timed jokes.
headcanons.?
josie hasn't come out to her grandparents yet; she simply omits any information pertaining to her love life and hopes that they leave her be.
josie has spent her entire life in texas. the farthest she has ever gone was el paso on a field trip when she was 9. she turned down her chance to study abroad in south africa last year because her grandma was sick and she felt guilty still going.
her life plan was always to become a veterinarian who specialized in livestock so she could move back home and be close to her grandparents. however, since moving to austin she has been leaning towards working with small animals.
when she was younger she had a pretty thick accent and was embarrassed by it so despite being pretty popular, she spent most of high school trying to get rid of it before going off to university.
a yapper. she loves to hear the sound of her own voice. she is also very animated when she speaks. lots of hand and eyebrow action.
she is very superstitious, she always wears a four leaf clover anklet that was gifted to her at the start of college for good luck and the worst 6 months of her life occurred when she had misplaced it.
josie has two tattoos that she actively hides from her grandparents, despite living an hour and a half away from then, one on her forearm that reads, “i want to be great or nothing.” and one on her shoulder of cow hoofprints.
she swears a lot when she's alone but is convinced it's ‘unladylike' and so she tries not to do it in front of others.
she's a huge (grand)daddy's girl - she pretty much gets whatever she wants with a smile and a please.
she sees her bio mother every once in awhile but has never officially met her father.
josie has an orange kitten named melody that she found outside her apartment a few months ago. she initially intended to give her away but for reason she felt drawn to her - it's the first indoor pet she's ever had.
she buys almost all of her clothing second hand from thrift shops and consignment stores. it started as a way to convince her grandparents that she was capable of dressing herself but has slowly evolved into her sense of style. she loves altering the pieces she finds to fit who she wants to be.
she almost always wears platform shoes. whether sneakers, heels etc, because she wants to appear taller and more intimidating ( not that it ever works ).
summary.
josephine han had a very modest upbringing. she was raised on a small ranch in schulenhurg, texas by her maternal grandparents after her biological parents, who were teenagers at the time, signed away their parental rights just days after her birth.
to most people this would have been devastating, however, josie didn't mind too much. her grandparents loved her unconditionally and never hid the fact that she was adopted.
despite her grandparents best interest, josie grew up with a sense of authority over her life. she always believed that she could do anything as long as she put her mind to it and tried her best.
they were tough on her at times, but she knew it came from a place of love.
after graduating from high school, she enrolled at the university of texas at austin, located about an hour and a half from her childhood home, to pursue a degree in animal science.
initially, her grandparents were hesitant about her moving to the city, so she commuted daily for classes and work for the better part of four years.
however, upon graduation, josie, desperate for a bit of freedom, finally convinced them to let her move into the city after promising to visit every weekend.
she has been living in austin since and pursuing her veterinary degree and working as a tech at the local animal hospital.
josie's biggest fear about moving away from home was that she would grow distant from her family and her life in schulenburg. although, at times she feels like she has it under control most of the time she finds herself living a double life as her grandparents no longer know anything about her.

seven sentence sunday...
...even tho no one tagged me, but if i post snippets into the tumblr void, i'm held accountable to write these
seven sentences out of the urban fantasy AU where buck has a lil hipster coffeeshop and a moral dilemma (also cows are evil, i guess)
It’s like this: all the coffee beans entering his place are enchanted with the good luck charm he’d learned in Peru, each tea bag contains just a little dry four leaf clover, every jar of honey is already magic in itself because bees made those and bees are stronger than any other magic he knows. Everything but the milk is doused in benevolent magic just to make sure his customers have a good day if they can.
(The milk’s a problem he hasn’t figured out yet, but magic burns it and he’s pretty sure cows are just the devil’s spawn refusing any benevolent enchantment. He doesn’t trust them.)
It’s also like this: there’s a police precinct a block down the street and a firehouse two doors down.
The shop is always busy with police officers and detectives and firefighters and Buck…well, Buck can’t let them walk out without a bit of luck and a whole lot of protection. Even if they have no idea he’s sending them out with the embers of his magic, which brings him to the new wave of consideration whether what he’s doing is wrong on some level.
not tagging anyone cause i know no one, but if anyone wants me to follow/wants to follow me, i will be thrilled <3

Poetry asks 20 & 30!!
20. a poem about your favourite season
I carry your breath in my hands
like warm sun at dusk.
Your laughter vines through my hair,
roots growing into my heart.
Stay with me
while the forest rings
its small brass bells,
and the lake reflects the oracle
of October’s bronze mirror,
candling golds and russets
of evening’s wild dance.
Hold to our branch and whisper
your song of riffling leaves
before wind clips our stems
to whirl us
back to earth
in our separate turns.
We have only
until the moon blinks.
—Patty Dickson Pieczka, “Autumn”
30. recommend any poem you want that’s not covered by the above prompts
People, the ghosts down in North-of-the-South aren’t see-through
They don’t wear nightgowns or whisper or sing
or want hazy things from the ones of us who are living.
They have skin, bones, people. They’re short in stature
and they don’t walk through walls. They come in our houses
by kicking down doors, wearing porkpie hats and smoking
those My Father cigars. Yellow sweat stains
on their sleeveless undershirts, my people. I’m sure
there are other kinds of ghosts other places,
sad angels wearing bloomers and fanning their wings,
but here their faces are made of gristle and their eyes
red from too much Thunderbird. They want to steal
our valuables, mess shit up, drop a match and burn
down the house. I don’t know any other way to say it,
people. They walk right into our kitchens without being invited,
tracking mud, lifting the fish by the tail out of the fryer
and stuffing it in a cloth sack the color of a potato
just pulled out of the ground, and if there was a potato
pulled fresh out of the ground they’d take that too.
Their pee sizzles when it hits the floor. They don’t hear
prayers or heed four-leaf clovers. We have to give
our bodies to the task. I mean we push back, people.
Harder than day labor. Harder than shoving a bull
out of the cow paddock. Two bulls. We have to say
leave my goddamned house. Go, motherfucker.
My fucking house. Shouting while pushing, like breech birth,
or twins. They slap on that corpse-smelling aftershave
and come calling, holding a bouquet of weeds. They want
our whiskey, our gravy, our honey, our combs, our bees.
—Diane Seuss, “People, the ghosts down in North-of-the-South aren’t see-through”

As a new fellow member to your community I hope your a very cool but chaotic person who likes to watch the world burn at her feet and watch in enthusiasm as her enemies suffer and die ruthlessly and painfully slow deaths I hope that when you receive this message you have touched all the grass in the world especially the radioactive parts that will slowly kill your organs from the inside ( don’t worry I hope the do to me too. I mean after all aren’t we all just a little mind less in the head and scared of the the sun blowing up in 500 billion years from now but then again, we are all just mindless stupid people with a just a small mixture of good people who want the world to change for the better and maybe give or create events and bring in therapists who can help for men because let’s be honest, we already have so many therapists for women not saying that women don’t have bad issues or experiences but we should also give rights to men and maybe GIVE PEOPLE THE RIGHT TO SPEAK THERE MIND AND NOT BE CANCELLED FOR IT!!!!
But anyways here are 3 four leaf clovers for you since I really like your content 😊😌 and hope you go to all the countries you want to go to in the world. Bye 😘

"Four Leaf Clover" by Michael Lee Johnson
Photo by Elias Tigiser on Pexels.com
I found your life smiling
inside a four-leaf clover.
Here you hibernate in sin.
You were dancing in the orange fields of the sun.
You lock into your history, your past, withdrawal,
taste honeycomb, then cow salt lick.
All your life, you have danced in your soft shoes.
Find free lottery tickets in the pockets of poor men and strangers.
Numbers rhyme like…

Buttercups curl against eyelashes fluttering against early spring breeze, wintergreen lifesaver breath brushing against dandelion seeds, floating floating floating, see how high I can go, I broke my nose in this park once, Hank Williams cassette tape lulling me to sleep on the beds of clovers, only three-leafed, never four. Zip up the pumpkin fleece to my chin, daddy I feel so cold, daddy push me on the swings, daddy I never see you, daddy I miss you, daddy I kept that fleece until it was threadbare, falling apart at the seams, covered in cat pee and my little girl dreams, daddy I’m still your little cowgirl, hug this stuffed cow like it can replace my lost purity, please daddy please
