I think my first goal of the second year of witchcraft is to get better at meditation. Ive been pushing it off and I know I can get away from it forever

I have been practicing witchcraft for a year now! While I am still a beginner in my craft and spirituality, it’s crazy to see and feel the impact of witchcraft has had on my life. I can’t wait to figure out and write out my goals for this next year! I constantly want to learn about witchcraft and it’s many aspects especially what path I am on. I am planning to post more on here but it depends on my work schedule. I’m excited to see what the year holds for me

💗Lovely offerings to Aphrodite💗

Roses: all roses are sacred to Her.

Dark chocolates: known to be an aphrodisiac

Vanilla: organic is best

Sweet fruits: especially apples

Seashells: of all kinds

Sand: collected from the beach if possible

Seawater: if you don’t live near the ocean, make your own saltwater for Her

Olive oil: olive oil is liked by many deities

Golden honey: honey is another liked gift by many gods

Sweet perfumes: offer Her the whole bottle or wear some as a devotional act

Poems and hymns: make them about Her or about someone you love

💗Sweet devotional acts💗

Practice self-care and self-love

Feeding birds, bees, and fish and taking care of nature

Dancing

Enjoying the beauty of the world

Masturbate in Her name if you feel comfortable doing so

Music, either your own or a playlist that reminds you of Her

Remember to tell the ones you are close to your love

Do a little extra for yourself - a spa day, new clothes, go a little extra on your makeup even if it is just a normal day for you, etc.

💗Cute altar ideas💗

An altar to Aphrodite should be as beautiful as you can make it. Decorate it with ocean motifs, roses (real or fake), flower garlands, nods to Her sacred animals (doves, swans, dolphins,) art of Her or erotica, rose quartz, pearls, and bright colors that capture feelings of love and the sea. An altar beside a window, on a windowsill, a vanity stand, or somewhere with a mirror. If you need to keep it secret or wish to keep a travel altar, try to keep her altar in a pretty box adorned with floral or sea decorations or something like a makeup pouch.

Having an outdoor garden altar is also a perfect option for Her - make it bird and bee friendly, use organic products (ones without pesticides) on your plants, have bird-feeders around, and have a little place where you can safely light a candle or incense for Her along with an offering bowl and a place for you to sit and enjoy the beauty she brings to you.

Starting Honoring Your Ancestors: A Guide to Ancestral Veneration by Mallorie Vaudoise today! Ive only read the introduction so far but I love the idea of journal prompts at the end of each chapter!

I’ve taken a break from working with deities at this moment and near future. I’m feeling such a call to nurture my relationships with my guides and my ancestors. Ive been trying to get into a rhythm before I began posting about my craft again. I’m excited to post about my craft!

Some raider: Asshole’s using a stealth boy!

Me and the lads, wearing power armor with the radio on and blaring “Butcher Pete”, not even bothering to crouch: 

I’ve finally sat down to read my ‘Italian Folk Magic’ book and I can feel my chest getting warm and almost heavy in way that feels like a hug. Im excited and grateful to go on this journey with my ancestors

Lady Artemis and Lord Apollo have stepped away for right now and I am beginning to work Lord Hades and Lord Ares. I am grateful for this opportunity to work with both of these Gods. I have begun research on devotionals and offerings so I create relationships with both of my deities. I am excited to see how I will change after working with these two Gods.

A good place for His altar would be at the front door of your house or bedroom as He was considered to be the frontline of protection.

Pray to Him for strength, ability to fight and defeat enemies, courage, to keep others safe, and help in a battle.
