a reminder that deities you work with don't hate you for not being able to do things, especially not if you're physically or mentally able to!
the gods understand that we're not perfect, that we're just fleshy meat sacks and that some of us aren't able to do things as much, and you shouldn't compare your craft to anyone else's! it's yours after all.
and if you're worried that your offerings aren't good enough, think about it like this. if a little crow came up to you and gave you a stick, you wouldn't think "what a dumb crow, why'd you give me a stick?", would you? no! you'd know that the little crow is doing his best and wanted to give you a gift. to the deities, you're that little crow, and they know you're doing your best <3
I think we can overcomplicate offerings for deities, like each and every offering that is for a deity should ALWAYS be respectful. There's no 'if/buts/maybes' on that.
But some offerings can be simple like saying thank you outloud or in your head after eating your meals to Demeter, Artemis, or any other deity that are similar to that in your religion. Saying that your skincare, makeup, and brushing your hair is dedicated to Aphrodite or Hekate, for example. Saying good morning to Apollo in the morning when you open up your curtains and doors, meditating out in the sun for Apollo and Lucifer. Doing something risky and playful in honour of Loki and Hermes. Having a glass of water by yourself or washing your hands in honour of Poseidon. Learning how to defend yourself for Ares and Odin, paying your respect to the dead for Hades, and Anubis. Those are all examples of offerings, devotion or doing something in their name that you can do if you currently don't have any offerings for them at the moment, or if your sick and don't have the energy for offerings, or if you can't do any offerings because of unsupportive family, ect.
I think I'm at that point in my shifting journey that when I wake up here after an attempt to shift, most of the time, I'm not sad. I'm just indifferent to waking up here. Yes, there are occasions where I'll be really happy, excited, and eager to shift more than usual, and I'll be disappointed and sad when I wake up here but for the majority of the time when I've done a few affirmations and I'm not trying too hard to shift because I know I will anyway at some point. So I've just learnt to become indifferent waking up here now.
If anyone asks me in the future why I believe in Greek gods, norse gods, Egyptian gods, and any other pagan gods are real, I'm going to tell them this. One, there are so many people talking about their experiences that it's hard to believe it's not real. Secondly, there are so many stories about them that makes it hard to believe someone just randomly made them up. Finally, I just offered a glass of milk to lady Hekate after I felt drawn to offer that to her and when I gave her that offering her candle for a few seconds went up and wild and I instantly knew she liked it and was excited. That made me feel good to know she liked it and was happy and made me believe even further that the gods from the past are real, all of them are.
AFFIRMATIONS FOR YOUR DESIRED REALITY:
"I can shift"
"Shifting is easy for me"
"I am a master shifter"
"I have decided to shift to (Desired Reality name) Desired Reality"
"I deserve to shift"
"Shifting found me for a reason"
"No matter what I see, think, hear, or feel, I am in my Desired Reality"
"I am (desired reality first and last name)"
"I am (your age in your desired reality) years old"
"I am (s/o love interest, sibling's name sister/brother/sibling, desired reality friend's name friend)"
"I am confident and powerful enough to shift"
(By the way, you DON'T need affirmations to shift. You CAN shift without them, but some do find them helpful.)

13/04/2025 4:04 am Severe destruction hit the Aalma'madani Hospital in central Gaza after an Israeli airstrike, despite it being the only functioning hospital in the city with limited capacity.
My full story 🙏💔
I'm Areej I was an English teacher and a creative writer at we are not numbers
before war and everything change after October 7. Also I'm a creative writer at we are not numbers.
Dear my kind donors!
Also I am a mother of three children. We have lived through the war for a year and a half, and we have lost everything we own. My husband is a man who did not work. Before the war, I did not have a breadwinner or any source of income. During the war I didn't give up to teach so I volunteered and had good chance to help some students to get engaged again with English in a very creative way.
Please Save those innocent kids from war 🥺‼️🙏🙏
We are in tents for almost two years because our home was destroyed‼️🥺
After our several evacuation from place to another.Now we don't have a house after it was destroyed by missiles. I now ask you to help me rebuild my house. And buy basics for the daily essentials for my children and I need money so that we can stand up again and start again.
This war wasn't easy at all it has taken many friends at work, students and some of my colleagues at the university. They are almost ten souls I won't never forget . Their laughter, their presence, their love… all of it is gone, leaving behind memories that are both precious and painful. Every day, I carry the weight of their loss, but I also carry their spirit, which gives me the strength to keep going.
My lovely students before war 🥺
Here’s what life in Gaza looks like for my family right now:
🏠 Safety: The uncertainty of tomorrow weighs heavily on us.
😢 Loss: The absence of my students and my friends is really hurts.
💔 Dreams on Hold: The future feels so far away when survival takes all our strength.
Note to mention the other very expensive essential goods. I hope you will stand by me to get food

So I did a channelled reading using tarot and Oracle cards for my desired reality s/o in my Peaky Blinders' desired reality. As I've heard about people doing this so I decided to do it.
I asked how my s/o saw our relationship and the cards I got back were that he basically saw our relationship that is full of love but lots of arguments and conflicts because of how stubborn we both are.
I then asked him what he wanted to say to me and how he felt about me, and I got an Oracle card that literally said, "Fall into my arms" and then got a card that was talking about feeling homesick for a place and/or person and then I got a card saying that what I want to do will happen sooner than expected. There was a card, i forgot what it was called, but it immediately said under it: "Loyalty, love, trust and safety."
I then asked if he loved me, and I got four cards that were strongly saying yes.
I then asked one last question of, "How do you feel that I'm shifting to my Peaky Blinders' desired reality to see and be with you?" I got cards saying that he felt slightly anxious because he wanted to make sure that I'm making the right choice, but otherwise, he felt truly and deeply loved.
ANYWAY.
Lock in. Shift when you're scared, shift when you don't think you will, shift instead of procrastinating, shift when you have doubts, shift without a right mindset. Nothing at all matters. Focus on your destination.
I have seen countless posts like this, but this is truly what matters the most. Keep going. You got this.
if all you did today was get through today, it’s good and it’s enough.
i don’t worship ares but i have soooo much respect for him as a protector of women, proud supporter of his amazonian daughters and an affectionate lover to aphrodite
ares gynaecothoenas you will always be famous ♥️
So I have an update for all of you who have followed me or who have just found me now.
I've known about shifting for five to four years, give or take. I've been trying to shift on and off, and only this year have been more determined to do it.
But also, during those years, I've had trouble with my own religious beliefs and continuously switched from one religion to another. But at the start of this year, I started to get interested in Catholicism, but if we're being more honest, I was just more interested in having a relationship with God.
When I was ten, I went to a baptist church, but the pastor didn't like me because I asked questions, but I always found the church calming. Then I told God to prove to me he was real and told him I would then believe in him. He did prove that to me, but even then, I didn't believe in him. Then, six years later, the start of this year, I found him. I found him and was more determined to shift realities than the previous years.
Yesterday night, I was desperate, so I prayed to God, saying that if shifting realities is for me, then let me shift to my 100 desired reality so I can be with John, my John. If shifting realities isn't for me, let me wake up here. I was determined to shift realities, but I woke up here.
I was upset, mourning, defeated, and a bit angry. I had a thought to fight against God and shift anyway, but I didn't. I decided not to.
Because I love Jesus, Jesus is beautiful, loving, pretty, and is the most calming thing I've found in my life. Despite my deep love for John Murphy, despite my care for him. Despite how eager I am to talk to him, get to know him, cheer him up, love him... God and Jesus are worth more to me.
I think John will understand that, even if he's not happy with it. So I'm not trying to shift again. My shifting journey is over, and I'm okay with that.
I do hope one day, I'll shift and see my beloved John. But for now, I won't and I'm okay with that. I really am.
I've developed peace with my past, my physical/emotional/neglectful/sexual trauma. I'm okay with my past and who i am. I just wanted to be loved romantically. That's all I wanted from shifting. But I'll get it someday and despite the long road I think I'll be okay.
