Out of harms reach I am tonight,

for I shall not fear the lonely dark of night.

The shadows that surround are spirits of calm,

my worries and tears now shall be gone.

language learning tips

some of my tips for you guys that i picked up while language-learning!!

✄ if you are learning more than one language and you are more proficient in one than the other, you can translate to that language when you are writing vocabulary and such in the language in which you are less proficient!

✄ try not to base your language-learning only off a textbook- you learn better through engaging in real life situations such as talking, listening to music, watching tv

The Great Goddess Hecate (Hekate)

Who is Hecate? She is the Goddess of Witchcraft, Necromancy, Ghosts, Magic, and, in some instances, the Night, Darkness, The Mist, and Moon. For some She is also the goddess of motherhood, protection, and the sea. She is a Hellenic deity, born of the Titans Asteria and Perses. There’s a few beliefs circling around Her being a crone goddess or a Triple Goddess, but those are modern and neopagan beliefs—which She predates. I also consider Her to be a part of the Chthonic deities.

Symbology: Black dogs, Wolves, Keys, Torches, Flames, Torches, Crossroads, Serpents, Daggers, Birds of Prey (crows, ravens, owls), the Moon, witchcraft tools (such as cauldrons, tarot, athames)

Offerings & Devotional Acts for Her:

Figurines of any of Her symbols

keys, skeleton keys, lockets

fire witchcraft and candles, flames, matchsticks

dedicating any lunar or symbolic jewelry to Her

black/dark crystals such as obsidian and onyx

nocturnal animal imagery

black/cool colored glitter

baneful/poisonous herbs and plants

pomegranates/berries (She seems to really like blackberries)

dark blend wines

honey, cinnamon, poppy seeds, chocolates (dark)

mugwort, lavender, roses, jasmine, dragon’s blood

bones and feathers from birds of prey (please check your local laws about obtaining these)

pinpricks of blood (please DO NOT attempt this if you struggle with self harm/etc, blood magic is particularly strong and isn’t for everyone. She will understand if you cannot offer that to her).

Taking midnight walks, setting up altars and rituals at crossroads, paying respects to the dead and practicing your craft in a cemetery 

Any playlists, poems, literature, whether it be your own or just a piece you associate with Her, also make wonderful offerings. 

Lunar Influences & Connections: Reaching out to Hecate tends to work best at night, and really any time the moon is at it’s peak. The Witching Hours, midnight to 3A.M., during strong lunar influences (blue moons, blood moons, eclipses, new moons, etc) all hold strong bonds with Hecate. Also, any time it is particularly foggy or your surroundings are covered in a mist is a good time to try to connect with Her.

Disclaimer: These are correspondences that have been gathered through my personal experiences working through my craft with Her. If you find She responds better to different offerings/during different times, by all means, stick to it! Your bond with Her is your own and should be cultivated in whichever way works best for you and Her. Thank You!

Celestial Energy

Note: Everything here is my UPG (Unverified Personal Gnosis) and may not be true for you! Feel free to share your experiences with it! Last Updated 10/5/18

Description

Celestial energy (also called Cosmic or Space energy) is constantly moving and changing, swirling across the sky and expanding before shrinking and coalescing. It is sometimes considered one of the harder energies to reach and work with, due to it’s distance away from us, but with a little effort, anyone can use this energy. 

There are many different forms and identities of celestial energy, and each sub-type of celestial energy has a unique feel to it. The main similarity is that all forms of celestial energy is constantly moving. This energy type is very fluid, and one sub-type may shift into another sub-type dependent on where it is located and how it interacts with other forms of energy.

Sub-Types

This is not an all-inclusive list, but a small introduction to some of the various forms of celestial energy.

Solar or Stellar Energy- Solar and Stellar energy can be classified as a type of celestial energy, since it’s the energy of the stars themselves! This energy is very warm and bright, and is a good choice for getting into celestial energy or energy work in general due to it’s closeness from our own Sun. 

Lunar Energy- Just like Solar Energy, Lunar energy can be classified as a type of celestial energy. This energy is calmer than solar energy and isn’t as bright, but it still provides light and warmth. This energy is a good choice for beginner energy workers and, like solar energy, is easily accessible.

Nebula Energy- This energy is closely related to solar energy, as it’s a part of the creation of the stars and solar energy. This energy tends to feel grittier than solar energy, and comes in different colors depending on it’s composition and size. 

Emptiness/Void Energy- This doesn’t refer to the void energy that is typically focused on (it certainly isn’t True Void Energy). Instead, it is simply the energy that fills the empty spaces in between the celestial energy groups. It is the embodiment of the cold and harsh space itself, and it tends to be the most elusive and harder to work with form of celestial energy. 

Planetary Energy- Planetary energy is the energy of the planets! It’s easily accessible to us in the form of Earth Energy, but different planets may be related closer to other different forms of energy.
