When I pray to Venus, I always sneak in “… And please help me be cunty.”
Because honestly why not
But then I wondered, does Venus know what it means to be cunty?
I thought about it for a while today, and right before I grabbed my pendulum
I realised that, well, Venus is the GODDESS of beauty. How the hell would she NOT know what being cunty is if she created it?
(Pls ignore this post thanks.)

I’ve been adding to my altars the past couple of days, now that I’m home from holiday traveling. I’ve been feeling a bit disconnected from my practice because of said traveling and just general end of the semester bullshit, and my way of dealing with feeling distant usually involves gifts lol. I added a few things to my Aphrodite, Apollo/Artemis, Athena, and healing altars, in addition to giving food offerings, which has helped me to start feeling more grounded 💕
