I'm confused about deity work! (I'm forgetful and have some religious trauma)

I'm new to paganism and I've seen deity work mentioned and I've taken a look at it and find it's something I wanna do at least eventually.

I have seen it said many times in places that there is stuff to do daily and there is a lot to go with it but I'm really forgetful and I don't know if I should even go with it, partially because I have some religious trauma and partly because I'm scared I'll make some Gods angry if I forget something important or do something wrong on accident, So I'm a little confused as to what to do. And do i have to stick to one pantheon? I find both greek and norce deitys as well as som other ones i feel a connection to. (Side question, would my meladaptive daydreaming affect this at all, because sometimes it involves the gods as characters)

If I do deity work I have to keep it hidden because I live in (other that 4 people 2 being toddlers) a conservative Cristian household. And what would happen if one of the 2 toddlers messed with my alter? And how would I hide it? I am also in a relatively poor household and am scared I can't get all the needed things for my alter.

When Sarah was still alive, she was a nightmare of a threat to the rest of the settlers in the colony. It was a group of spellcasters with more noble intentions that defeated her and trapped her soul in her spellbook... and some of them were her own family.

When she was finally dealt with, the rest of the living Ravencroft family decried her actions and the whole town then buried the records of her life and existence with her evil spellbook in order to prevent her and her magic from being revived. Public records maintain the image that she was persecuted and tried as a witch, much like what turned out to be many innocent men and women. Most of history has forgotten who Sarah was...

But the Ravencrofts haven't.

#ravencroft headcanons #ohohoho tbh!! this feels cohesive!!! #sets the stage for history repeating itself ;) and also explains why she didn't gaf abt her own descendant. family betrayed her. #also explains why ben had grounds to pretend sarah was innocent when HE KNEW THE TRUTH OTHERWISE #also explains how the townies know nothing abt sarah despite her being a figure of infamy to them. #sarah ravencroft #scooby doo and the witch's ghost #also altering canon a little bit bc their stuff on wiccans while in good faith was very inaccurate.

happy beltane everyone. I know this a day late, but it can be a celebratory post here are some pictures I took. Please excuse the mess near my alter I had to do it on my desk. Also I know it's not the most traditional but I used what I had.

Edit: I corrected a couple spelling errors.

Truly I'm appropriating the SHIT out of Catholicism (just not local practices of course). And honestly? I am not a baptized Catholic or a Christian. I would describe my views in a weird and unacceptable way for people to which no one has the right to know. But honestly?

Why do we NOT accept that we can "cherry pick" the Bible? How can we be critical of a religious text if we can't say objectively "this is racist, this is homophobic, this is anti-Semitic" and thus, we should archive and treat those verses as outdated and teach why. What is stopping us besides our own constraining views on the sacred? I understand the history of how we got to this point, but I do not understand why we can not recognize the history and actively change the future.

And it's not just Christians who do this. Many atheists/anti-theists and non-Christians who speak on it treat it the same way. And what I see is that both of those groups will often cherry pick to debunk, support, or whatever any view they have on Christianity and God. So often, progressive Christians must use the tools of their detractors to provide a reason for the progressive takes on the religion. They must become Biblical scholars who can accurately read the older texts to say "this has been mistranslated/out of context/changed for political reasons." And while I appreciate that approach and the work it takes it can not be the only approach to it. And also, we typically try and frame a historical Jesus in a way that may very well be contradictory as well as a modernized casting.

We can also similarly recognize the colonialism while saying that it is a cultural aspect and experience many do not want to lose. Why force abandoning it when we can reform it to be healthier? (One way I think the Catholic church can do this is by officially recognizing and supporting cultural Saints created due to it.)

Idk. I just do not understand why we can not reform the church when it has been reformed many many times before (and no, not just during the reformation). Why can we not accept and uplift the voices of churches who are supportive and recognize the faults without dunking on them for still being Christian? It's mind boggling to me how we always go "this is how it is, this is how it will always be" because it is the exact way evangelicals think.

#Catholicism #Christianity #I honestly have so many views on how we can alter our view of things such as sin the afterlife and sacred texts but they are not as far #as I know in agreement with any church in my area or where I see #even progressive christian circles it seems though I guess I should just look more #also because no one will probably see this #I'm kinda like a Wiccan who instead of using pagan mythos uses Catholic ones

AITA for correcting harmless misinformation?

I'm 20, my friends in this story are in their 30's-50's, genders irrelevant. Occasionally one of them will post something neat they saw on social media (facebook usually) and about half the time it'll be relatively harmlessly, but inaccurately, captioned. Examples include:

- that one picture of river outflow meeting the sea [captioned as "the line where the pacific and atlantic oceans meet"],

-some silly unsourced posts about X holiday being Secretly Wiccan Until The Christians Stole It (it wasn't. lot more complicated and nuanced than that!)

- very well done digital art of "rainbow galaxy visible from earth"

I don't want my friends to be tricked! They're all very smart people, just a little credulous sometimes when they're online (aren't we all?). I try to gently correct the information (ex. "this is actually art by [artist]!") and end it by giving a reason I'm still glad they brought it up (ex: "It's SO well done, though - absolutely gorgeous and really sparks my imagination!").

Thing is, none of the stuff they've posted is, like... particularly harmful misinfo so far? It's just people being Wrong, albeit sometimes intentionally, on the Internet. People are allowed to be Wrong on the internet.

Am I being a buzzkill for not just keeping my mouth shut? Am I letting my urge to be Correct overpower me? Should I just let people enjoy things? I'm scared I'm being rude to my friends, when all they want is to show the groupchat something cool they saw and thought we'd like! I'm not really sure what the social Rules are for something like this, and so I ask the jury:

Am I an asshole, folks?

(if mod's ok with it) please hit me in the comments with your favorite fake social media post. i really like the digitally altered red peacock footage

What are these acronyms?

Okay I was gonna leave mine in the tags--it's the blue watermelon photoshop that resurfaces every so often, claiming to be real and with some esoteric description about its flavor--but then I googled it to make sure I was remembering it right and found this absolute gem of an amazon listing:

Look at these extremely real and extant fruits that definitely aren't the same image over and over

king of day Sun and lord of nights Moon, bonding with Cursed-AU Y/N,,,,,, bc they are simps in every au i make sorry i dont make the rules (BONUS: AU LORE/INFO BELOW, ALONG WITH ANOTHER [story-relevant] DOODLE!)

Some lore about the curse au, copy and pasted from the discord bc im lazy and im very very sorrys fjfkhdskjh:

Okay so. Casting magic takes energy, bc this is an angsty au

The bigger-more complex-more powerful the spell is, the more energy it takes. The most powerful spells can take as much energy as in multiple human lives. There’s legends of spells cast during wars or battles that fell entire armies at once purely just by being cast

NORMALLY, when casting a spell, the magic comes from the world/plant life/living things around the caster

A curse is a kind of Forbidden Magic that can span generations. If one casts a curse that the cursed one will never quench their thirst, or they will never have enough sleep (simple curses for example), the curse could be passed down to their children, sometimes for multiple generations

A curse is ALSO a kind of spell that goes out of its way to deliberately alter the future and continues to- it’s basically a spell that’s constantly working when most spells are more like they last for a few seconds or maybe a minute or two then they’re done and the magic is used up and gone

So if you’re cursed to never feel warmth, there’s magic around you or in you that is constantly sapping the warmth from you or putting chills into you. You can’t see it, but it’s always there, even if just in small amounts

So when a curse is cast, it takes a lot of energy. Like, multiple human lives’ worth

There are ways to circumvent the possibility of killing the people around you (or yourself), like having some animals recently sacrificed, which is the most commonly heard of version

But. Sometimes, very rarely. One might cast a curse on a whim, without planning on it or really considering the series of events leading up to it or following

Cursed AU Reader did that once. Cursed someone in a fit of rage or passion

They were standing in a field, ready for a harvest festival, at the time

The fields withered and died and it’ll take years for them to get back to being fit enough to grow anything in

The mark of a cursed witch, which is a sign from Wiccan culture meant for containing(?), basically keeps the Marked Person from taking any magic from the world around them

The only energy they can use is the energy their physical body contains- and if they use too much or too frequently, they’ll kill themselves in the process

Basically it’s a way of making sure the caster can never use enough magic to really do much of anything sjdgdhdhd

and,,,,, the concept art for a moment i might write abt at some point,,
