I love when people tell me I make clothing wrong. I love when they tell me “you have to knit sweaters from a yoke” and “you have to sew a back rip stitch for a garment zipper” because I don’t! I don’t!!! I can make clothing however I like! I knit sweaters from the bottom up in panels on straight needles! I sew my zippers on by hand with embroidery thread! And guess what?! The sweaters look like sweaters! The zippers work like zippers! The SNOZBERRIES taste like S N O Z B E R R I E S!!

Grounding with Hekate
I've always found grounding a useful and meaningful practice. However, as a practicioner of the spirit model of magic, I've never felt purely energy-based techniques work for me as well as for energy workers. This new technique I've devised employs the help of my tutelary deity, Hekate, and proved much more effective for me. As I chose to explain things thoroughly, the instructions are long but don't fret - the rite itself is very simple. While I initially wanted to note that the practice relies on an established relationship with Hekate, she protested and told me she is willing to give that help to anyone who needs it. So - here we go.

hey, hope you are well!
i'm a beginner witch and one of my goals in witchcraft is to eventually do deity work.
i was wondering if you could give me any insight into the practice you may have and any things to look into on this path?
thanks so much!
So deity work is actually not an inherent part of witchcraft! Not all witches are religious, Pagan, or work with deities. I don’t. I just practice the craft, so unfortunately I don’t have a lot of insight on that front.
If you’re new I do have some general insight and things I think a new witch should keep in mind, things to watch out for, you get the idea. You were probably asking about deities but I'm gonna tell you these things anyways!
What I Think a New Witch Should Know
Bad ideologies - I'm not gonna sugarcoat this one. There's a lot of nazis and TERFs lurking around. New age stuff can be (almost always is) a pipeline to ideas that are based in white supremacy and anti semitism and I see a lot of people just ending up caught in the web of anti semitic conspiracy theories when they're into new age stuff. A lot of TERFs will say things like "we're the daughters of the witches you couldn't burn" or that only women are magical or can be witches. Now the concept of the divine feminine has been appropriated and is turning people into tradwives and TERFs and spreading bioessentialsm and basically just spreading transphobia and taking people down the alt right pipeline. I know I mention this is a lot but it's really important to me! Practice research skills. Consider where ideas come from and their history before internalizing them.
Each witch will have their own rules - I generally do not tolerate cultural appropriation and strongly encourage people to ward, so those are the closest things to rules that I preach, but at the end of the day there are no universal rules. If someone says "you have to/can't do this to be a witch" like 99% of the time they're full of shit. People who are BRAND new contact me with the same 10 misconceptions all the time. Be weary of people who say there are strict rules, they may just be preaching their beliefs as facts.
Safety & discernment - The other two kinda go over this already but this is just a general suggestion. Practice regular safety precautions and discernment! Discernment is asking things like is this suggestion safe for me? Where did this idea come from and what's its history? Or for your own practice, could this experience have a logical, not spiritual, explanation? This will keep you from falling for bad ideas and misinformation but also from burning yourself on candles, ingesting herbs you don't know anything about and rendering your medications ineffective, following essential oil advice that will give you a chemical burn, assuming that an experience is spiritual when it is not, and so much more!
Learn what you want - You wanna know what I think you should look into? Dogwhistles. Okay that was me being a little bit funny, we already talked about TERFs and watching out for them. While dogwhistles are a generally good to know I think as far as your witchcraft practice and research goes, you should learn whatever the hell you want. As I've mentioned in my pinned post, I have built my practice and beliefs from scratch and approach teaching with the same goals in mind for you. You wanna know what you should learn? I don't know. You tell me. If you want some general suggestions? Do actually learn dogwhistles. Learn about practices that are closed so you do not appropriate from them. Learn about warding and go outside and learn about the animals and plants around you! But as far as practices go, like tarot or spells or spirit work? Learn about the ones you think are neat.
Also if you wanna know about deity work, specifically working with the Greek pantheon or Aphrodite, I think @teawiththegods is pretty cool. She's nice. Ask him stuff!
I hope this helps 💕

I honestly wonder if the Antichrist is just a demigod of Lucifer, and he or she is extremely demonized in biblical terms, but in actuality Lucifer just wanted a kid to chill and read novels with.

Eight of Wands.
When it feels as if everyone is against you, and you feel like giving up, remember you aren’t alone. And though it may seem as if you are lost within the darkness, know that eventually the sun will rise once more. Remain sure footed and swift. An army of opposing views are glaring at you, but try as they may, they can’t see your soul and your army is larger. The meek are no match for your strength. Know that when you make the choice to move forward, they will all scatter like fallen leaves.

whenever I tell people that I practice Modern day witchcraft/Paganism, they instantly think to blood sacrifices. Like no? I just scream at the moon, eat rocks and leave offerings to Lady Demmeter to beg for a good harvest on my family Garden.
The Blood sacrifices only happen every lunar eclipse Jeez.

I was reading about Devana, a slavic goddess of forests, life, fertility and rebirth when I heard something falling off my desk
Jump scare
Is it a warning or may I continue?

As everyone is talking about Litha/ Summer Solstice today here’s your little reminder that not every pagan or witch celebrates the same holidays.
Not only is it okay to not celebrate the most common holidays, it’s great! I love seeing all of the unique holidays people celebrate as part of their practices!
I hope everyone who celebrates today enjoys it! Now I’m going back to counting fireflies to see when I can celebrate my height of summer holiday.
