When Gods and/or Goddesses, come to your aid in The Physical World. (Or... How Deities are so powerful, than they can affect our Life... Or, The World!)
When I was in college, I was studying one of the few technical subjects of my career; and in the morning of the day of my final test, weird things happened, like warnings than I should stay at home:
I dreamt with Lord Krishna in a big tapestry, in the room I shared with my parents for a few months ('Cause I was very ill in that time, and they could take me quickly to hospital; if my vital signs dropped dangerously); and his images moved like he was about to get out of the tapestry, like in a 3D movie.
When I wake up and went to prepared for my test, Loki spontaneously appeared from nowhere; screaming joyfully: ''Hello!... I LOVE YOU!'', (My blood pressure was starting to lower, and since I was a kid; I'm a bit cranky; when i'm in a very bad health...) feeling annoyed; my responses to him, was told him in a low voice: ''No, Loki: Please... Go away!'', and Loki leaved; still laughing at my annoyance for his loud greeting; at first hour in the morning. And,
I was feeling worst by the minute: Breakfast didn't sitted well to me that day, and my blood pressure continued to lower more and more; to the point than I started to have a migraine, which only started to makes me difficult to going out; to the aforementioned final test.
Despite the bad I was feeling... I decided to go to the final test, 'cause I couldn't pay for the reposition of the same; and my group will repeated it, if I couldn't go to the final work for get the grade to past the subject, and... I needed to complete this subject, to be closer to graduate from college. My mother warned me of leaving the house, in that awful state; but because I'm stubborn since I can remember... I walked in my weak condition to the street, to go to present my test... I was just a few meters of my house, when suddenly; my day became weirder: I was facing to the street, and I have a vision where the Gods and Goddesses close to my heart; appeared at my back... And looked more solid! Despite the impressive scene, after I turned my head in the street to saw them and not see them; I returned to going to College, but again... The Gods and Goddesses appeared in my vision at my back again over the same street near of my house, trying to call to my attention. I was going to resume my trip, but then; people than lived near of me and than never spokes to me, making me signs to get closer to them, and I walked over them; and then I hearded to my neighbors clearly, and they asked me if I was okay; confused I said I was okay, and they told me something than makes me feel cold and terror; inside: A thief was very close to me, and about to rob me my cellphone! (Or maybe, even to hurt me to get it!) I ended going to the test, thanks than my father pointed me someone than protected me; until I got inside a Public Transport, totally safe: If it wasn't for the Presence of Krishna, and the other Gods and Goddesses screaming at me; so I went away of where it was dangerous... I could have been hurt for that thief, in many bad ways!
That's all in this post, and remember than Gods and Goddesses; can past to our world when they needed, including to save us in real life of any danger.
Than The Gods and Goddesses, always crossed the limits between worlds; when we really need them to keep us out of harm's way... So Be It!

I've decided to start with the summer solstice book! ^^ It's a lot more doable than Beltane since that's coming in a week XD And since I already have ideas for all six stories, I have a good feeling about it, I think I'll make it! ^^
Here's a preview of the titles I came up with for the tales I started:
No rest for the sun
The flower crown and the seven rusalki
The vampire who missed the sun
The honey candy
The sun that wouldn't rise
The cat of Apollo
I think I will do a poll to decide which one will be the bonus one ^^

Enodia Phosphorus Kleidouchos.
This piece was inspired by Goddess Hecate.
Endoia: She of the streets, of the ways, path guide. Enodia is also a type of moth.
Phosphorus: As Morning Star. The Luciferian form of the light of Venus on the horizon. In alchemy this element represents the spirit of light.
Kleidouchos: Cosmic Key bearer. Many people, mostly pagans, that are familiar with this popular Goddess may not realize there are many secrets glistening just beneath her exterior. Here I wanted to use light colors to express this dark goddess. She often wears a mask, much like many humans.

He whispered my name,he chose me in the midst of chaos and darkness.
He always whispered my name and waited for me,but I was just a naive and innocent little girl,but now I am a woman and now we are one.
I was weak he gave me power,I was foolish he gave me wisdom,I was scared and he gave me courage
Now we are one,now I am the daughter of him who has many names,now I am light and darkness,an angel and a demon.
He makes me see things that no one sees,he reveals to me the hidden,he reveals to me the light and the darkness.
From the beginning,he was always waiting for me and calling for me,now I'm in his arms and he's inside me.
He is the morning star,he is my father and I am his daughter,now we are just one for all eternity.
Light,mercy and justice for those who deserve my light and pain and darkness for those who deserve my darkness.

every human has this bizarre open wound with bones poking out that they have to constantly sterilise in order to keep it from rotting. and none of them seems to think it's weird.

A poem to thank my beloved goddess Lilith
✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨
In shadows deep where mysteries dwell,
Lilith, goddess, hear my tale to tell.
With wisdom ancient, fierce and free,
I honor thee, in reverence, to thee.
Oh Lilith, mother of the night,
With wings unfurled, in starry flight,
Your presence, bold, my spirit lifts,
Amidst life's trials, you are my gift.
In darkest hours, when fears arise,
Your whispered guidance, a sacred prize.
Empower me, oh goddess fair,
With strength and courage beyond compare.
Through winding paths and moonlit skies,
Your essence guides, my soul's allies.
In your embrace, I find my light,
Lilith, goddess, forever bright.
With gratitude, my heart's decree,
I thank you, Lilith, eternally.
For in your grace, I am set free,
To embrace my truth, authentically.
So here I stand, in honor bound,
With reverence, love, my voice resound.
Lilith, goddess, hear my plea,
Forever grateful, blessed be.
✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨

When things between you and a Deity, doesn't happen as you was expecting. (...Or why sometimes, our relations with Deities; not always have ''A happy ending...'')
I was fighting against myself for a few months, about putting this post; but... After what happened with the blogger I followed and admired for years, I decided than it was time to taking this out of my chest; talking about something than happened when I was 16 years old, before my relation with Deities become closer than the ones I have with people; today.
As I said before, I was 16 years old; and my life, well... It wasn't happy at all: My parents didn't allowed me to get out to have fun, my relations with my brothers and sister were with cold cordiality; this second Christian Private School had many tests and rules than leaved anyone exhausted, my father forbid me to use makeup which didn't makes me look better for the few guys than interested me, and... ''The Queen of Highschool'', seemed to takes a liking to psychologically torturing me; by telling me all the reasons of why I will never had a boyfriend: Since wearing my older sister's used clothes in the highschool's parties, until the fact than she presumed of having even to older boys after her. (It sounds ridiculous to admit it, but all of that hurt me; even if I never said nothing to her... Or to the six brainless girls, than dressed and talked like her) Like any 16 years old, I was trying to keep my grades on track; and watching my own behaviour to avoid been punish in that horrendous place, but above all; I desperately craved for something more: Love, and emotional intimacy!
Time passed and it seems, than I will never have Love of any kind; (Mostly because my parents kept ''An Iron Grip over my Social Life'', and the only place than where it seemed possible to get what I desired the most... The few boys than seems decent enough, weren't interested in me; so I drowned myself in Study and/or Household Chores, and watching basic Cable TV; 'cause I thoughted than maybe it was better for me, to don't ever think to find Love; never again. But, something unexpected happen...
I had a dream, where a handsome young man with long dark reddish-brown hair; pale slightly tan skin, dressed in a long ancient tunic; with very white teeth with a flirtatious smile; get out of the sea, presented himself as a God... And kissed me! When I wake up, I realized than it wasn't a simple dream; 'cause the energy I felt, lingered a little bit in my room; dissipating a moment later. After I recovered, I thoughted than the dream felt real; but... I dismiss its importance, telling to myself than my wish to have someone at my side; provocked that dream... But the time passed, and I started to have visions with this same deity; showing me sites in The Spiritual World, and acting to me like a gentleman...
That Deity, was... Poseidon!
For four months, I felt ''Like I died... And I went, to The Atlantis!''; (Even the mockering of The Queen of Highschool, didn't bother me anymore) and I was just so happy and thrill to have this wonderful and beautiful being near of me, than I wasn't interested in looking to someone anymore; because I thoughted than him, was enough for me!
At the end of those four months, I thoughted than it was time to make things ''Formal'': I wanted to have something more than just holding hands, the endless walks and a kiss or two once in a while... I wanted a compromise, 'cause the whole ''Dating Phase''; wasn't something I wanted to have forever... I wanted a serious relation, and I thoughted than he wanted the same; too...
I told him in a vision, with my heart totally open; in a green forest near the sea, than I wanted to be his girlfriend! I was smiling in an ancient white dress; only waiting than he answered, than he just was waiting than I spoke first; to tell me than he felt the same for me...
...But nothing prepared me, for what happened next...
He looked at me, and like he was trying to make it less bad than it sounds; he told me than ''I really wish than I could tell you that, but I can't... 'Cause my heart only have place for two loves, and I can't have three loves in my heart, and... I'm really so sorry for telling you that!'' (Well... Being stabbed in the heart, would have being a lot less painful than those words!...)
It may sounds obvious, but... Just in case, you wasn't following this story; closely... I was devastaded: For the next two or three weeks, I was crying with all my heart; in a ''I want to be alone, Mood!'', scaring to the girl than mocked me in Highschool; and I was so down, than even my distracted family noticed it; but I never told them, 'cause they doesn't believe in Deities or Spirits, or... They would have called someone of a church, as an answer; so I had to dealt with that pain, by myself!
After that time, I just get up and continue with my boring life, full of duties and totally devoid of the hope of finding love; in this life...
...Until I was 18 years old, and Aphrodite told me than she wanted to us be ''something more'' (which I finally agreed, after getting rid of my prejudices for my Christian's Upbriging); and a year later... Loki, asked me for the same too; and after stopping to doubting myself if I was worthy of being loved, I accepted him... And we are together since then, despite the lows and moments of being separated for our little differences.
Poseidon, appeared a little later again; and I wasn't felt hurt anymore, but sometimes he acted like he wants something more from me, which confuses me: Maybe because I'm now an adult, he wanted to both have a relation now?... I don't know yet, but I had see him acted jealous when Loki is around; and the only time he left his animosity against him, was when he united with Loki; Aphrodite, Athena, Thor, and the other Gods and Goddesses to gave many weeks of ill luck and troubles; to a demon who is a close relative of mine.
The conclusion?!... Not always we have the relation we want from a Deity: They may don't want to be your brother, sister; cousin, father, mother, friend; uncle, aunt, patron, matron; protector, protectress, spiritual guide; girlfriend, boyfriend, lover... Or, spouse. (But, is better they told you in time; so you can move on, till other Deities wanted to have any of the relations than I said above.) As what happens with humans, any relation you have; have the risk to ends, sooner or later; but if we are patient enough... We can find a relation than makes worth all the heartache and pain, we may suffered before.
Than all of you have the Relation you need, be it with Humans and/or Spiritual Beings; just in the right time for you… So Be It!

For the second tale of my book, "The flower crown and the seven rusalki", I was inspired by slavic folklore and the night of Kupala, which I knew nothing about but what little I could pick up from the internet is fascinating. I was wondering if anyone who knows a little more about slavic culture could give me some pointers, so the tale can be a little more authentic?
I'd be particularly interested in details about the celebration, since I know the main points you can find on the internet. I'd also love to know more about rusalki. Also, while I was doing research, I stumbled upon the name "bereguina", but I could only find info on one website, so if anyone knows if it's legit and where to find more, I'd be very interested ^^

WIP Wednesday
Aujourd'hui, un extrait du premier conte de mon recueil pour le solstice d'été : "Pas de repos pour le soleil". Bien sûr, ce n'est qu'un premier jet, mais j'en suis pas mécontent!
Il sentit son pouvoir s’élever vers le ciel comme une fusée, et resta un long moment là, le cœur battant, sous la chaleur de l’astre à son zénith. Puis, lorsqu’il se sentit prêt, il remercia les divinités, éteignit les bougies, brisa son cercle et défit son autel, ne laissant derrière lui que des cendres bientôt éparpillées par le vent. Max ne parla à personne du sort qu’il avait jeté, mais il ne cessa pas d’y penser. Les résultats ne se firent pas attendre. Les semaines qui suivirent, au lieu de se raccourcir, les jours restèrent tous aussi longs qu’au solstice. Personne ne comprenait ce qui se passait, mais Max était fier comme un pou. Tous les jours, il remercia l’univers d’avoir accordé cette grâce, et passa autant de temps qu’il put à se prélasser sous les rayons flamboyants. Les arbres et les plantes semblaient ne plus vouloir s’arrêter de pousser, la forêt fourmillait de vie.

the scent of the night calms me and makes my lungs flutter like the wings of an angel fluttering desperately to watch the fall in time because he was in the sauna too long with all his men, but that's what makes this smell so goddamn good

Unlocking the Power of the Perfect Witch Character Name for Your Fiction Novel
Introduction
As an author, there are few decisions as important and impactful as choosing the right name for your characters. When it comes to crafting a witch character for your fiction novel, finding the perfect name holds even greater significance. A well-chosen witch character name has the ability to intrigue readers, capture the essence of your character, and contribute to the overall atmosphere and world-building of your story. In this blog post, I'll help you explore the art of naming a witch character and provide you with valuable insights to ensure your witch character's name enchants your readers.
1. Reflect the Magic
When naming your witch character, harness the power of language to reflect the inherent mystique and enchantment associated with witches. Consider incorporating elements that evoke magic, such as using words related to spells, potions, or mystical creatures. By doing so, you can make your witch character's name an integral part of their identity, amplifying their connection to the supernatural world.
2. Embrace Historical and Cultural References
Witchcraft has a rich historical background in various cultures worldwide. Delve into folklore, mythology, or historical records to discover names with strong ties to witchcraft. For instance, names like Morgana, Circe, or Baba Yaga immediately conjure images of powerful and captivating witches. Drawing from these references adds depth and authenticity to your character's name and enhances the overall believability of your story.
3. Individuality and Distinctiveness
Just like any other character in your novel, your witch character deserves a name that sets them apart. Aim for a name that is unique, memorable, and distinctive. Consider experimenting with unconventional spellings, combinations of sounds, or unexpected name origins. A witch character with a name that stands out from the crowd will leave a lasting impression on your readers, making them more invested in their journey.
4. Honor Personality Traits
Your witch character's name should embody their personality and tap into the essence of who they are. Think about the characteristics you want to assign to your witch character—Are they mysterious, wise, mischievous, or powerful? Choose a name that aligns with these attributes. For example, a witch with a strong and commanding presence might be named Hecate, while a mischievous and playful witch could be called Puck.
5. Consider Phonetics and Flow
When readers encounter a character's name, it should roll off their tongues effortlessly. Consider the phonetics and flow of your witch character's name to ensure it is pleasant to read and pronounce. Avoid names that are overly complicated or excessively long, as they may detract from the overall reading experience. Opting for names with harmonious sounds can create a magical resonance that captivates your audience.
6. Symbolism and Hidden Meanings
Delve into symbolism and hidden meanings to give extra depth to your witch character's name. Look up old languages, symbolic associations, or even numerology to add an additional layer of intrigue. Incorporating these subtleties can breathe life into your character and provide an added sense of discovery for your readers.
Conclusion
Naming your witch character in a fiction novel is an art form that demands careful consideration and thought. By following the suggestions outlined above, you can ensure that your witch character's name elevates your storytelling experience, captivates your readers, and brings your magical world to life. Remember, the perfect witch character name holds the power to bewitch your readers and transport them to a realm of mystery and wonder. Embrace this opportunity to create an unforgettable character who will resonate with readers long after they put your book down. Happy naming!

Sol ☀️
Tumblr media
Goddess Sol has been on my peripheral during this eclipse season. Typically I am called to chthonic and chaos deities, but the serene energy of Her light radiates a sphere of otherworldliness that is still unfamiliar to me.
☀️
Despite the darkness of the underworld that a Mercury Retrograde throws us into, we are still guided towards the surface of our perceptions.
