stumbled into the attention of gods you never really believed in until they had their talons and claws deep inside you, scratching and marking you as theirs in a way as ancient as humanity itself you spend hours scribbling down the counsel of gods who touch your soul, meditating on broken, disjointed whispers and imagesContinue reading

novelconcepts: I want to see Greek gods in the modern era. I want to see Zeus in a tailored suit and shaggy beard, a walking disparity of the loud, brash, post-graduate frat boy variety who can’t pass a woman on the street without catcalls, who has more one-night stands than he could possibly keep inContinue reading

i have a question about dieties…. how do you know if one is trying to contact you? are they always loud (for lack of a better word) or direct when they try to speak to you, and if not, how do you know if its them for sure? thanks :)

Not always. Cernunnos was pretty obvious about it when He decided He’d waited long enough. Most are not so vocal about it. KNowing if one is contacting your is hella tricky and hella personal. Are you having any dreams that speak to you as important or widely out of place from the norm? Are youContinue reading “i have a question about dieties…. how do you know if one is trying to contact you? are they always loud (for lack of a better word) or direct when they try to speak to you, and if not, how do you know if its them for sure? thanks :)”

I haven’t had a chance to introduce myself to the God and Goddess. But I have been lighting a red and white candle near me sometimes to feel closer to them, is that ok?

Whatever you can manage with the intent of love and honor is most likely going to be acceptable. The important thing in any kind of worship or deity work is that you show respect and love for them, after that it’s really all defined by your religion and your preferences. Thanks for asking, Anon. ^_^

Do you have any ideas on how to curse someone to not be able to hear their gods, even temporarily? Like to create godphone interference? I’m also trying to puzzle out if there is a way to do this without offending the entity and only offending the person, but that I’m not so sure that part is possible.

natural-magics: oldmotherredcap: As I am an atheist, I think I am the wrong person to ask about this. I would recommend, however, that you give a reason why you are cursing when asking for such advice. A lot of people on here, including me, are reluctant to offer cursing advice without a proper reason to backContinue reading “Do you have any ideas on how to curse someone to not be able to hear their gods, even temporarily?

atchiu-ruad: khalkeos: “Do you pray?” “Yes, I pray.” “For what?” “Why do you think I ask for something?” “Isn’t that what praying’s for? Asking for things?” “Maybe I just talk to the gods.” “Why would you do that?” “Why not? I love them.” Well said. And yes, requesting help is a valid form of prayer.Continue reading

How did you “meet“ your Gods?

meritinpu: mscairowednesday: I was just wondering about some of the ways others “met” the deities they follow (as long as you don’t mind sharing, seeing as it can be a personal question). I’m really quite curious! For me it was through a dream actually. I dreamt that I was walking down a downtown street atContinue reading “How did you “meet“ your Gods?”

Talk to Your Gods

scalesojudgement: Sometimes, sometimes I will sit in my home (or stand in my shower). Sometimes I will lay on my floor, or on my bed and I will just start a story. I have loved myths and stories ever since I can remember, I have loved telling stories ever since I can remember. (Ask myContinue reading “Talk to Your Gods”
