I'm a 01 liner, Sagittarius and my mbti type is INFJ. I love talking about esoteric and occult stuff (spirituality, witchcraft, astrology etc). My aunt used to teach me a lot about spirituality and how to read tarot when i was younger. I'm pretty open-minded and I love discussing things and sharing perspectives!

I have this blog since 2019. So, for better navigation, check out my tag index.

A deity is a mystical presence, like a god, that is worshipped by individuals who believe it commands or wields influence over a characteristic of existence. In the witch world, many worship or work with deities or spirits. However, you never need to do this to be a valid witch, and always hold magic within yourself as well.

Worshipping Vs Working With:

Worship:

Worshipping is to believe, honor, and venerate a spirit or deity. This means not only believing in their existence, but admiring their power and displaying gratitude and loyalty towards them.

Working With:

Working with an entity is different than worshipping, although many consider it important to start worship before working with any spirit or deity. (That doesn’t mean stop when you start working with them though!) This is when an entity comes through with energy, messages, and is willing to guide you.

Terminology:

Aspect:

Aspects are a phrase utilized across various beliefs and in theology to illustrate a particular manifestation or perception of a deity or spirit. Subject on the religion, these may possibly be separate, overlapping, or methods of perceiving or conceptualizing the deity in a distinct context.

Devotee:

A passionate or fervent believer in a particular religion, deity, or spirit. To explain further, an individual who is completely devoted and given almost exclusively to conviction, and one who is spiritually committed to conscientious obligations, principles, and ceremonies.

Devotion:

An act of prayer, offering, or ritual, generally cast in private. This can range from playing music, to writing poetry for them. Devotions are often considered to occur solely in the mornings in some cultures.

Epithet:

In Hellenic and European primitive times, an epithet was a informative term to be associated with or occurring in place of the name of a deity or spirit. These epithets are repeated continuously in their ancient literary works, and this phrase is used to specify the characteristics of a deity or spirit.

Matron:

A distinct Goddess you feel most linked and relaxed working in alongside, and can often be demonstrated within themselves. The amount of Matrons an individual may have is a subject to preference.

Offering:

An offering is to put forward something to a deity is to show and recognize allegiance, appreciation, and passion. Offerings are usually given in devotions, in veneration of, and general rituals.

Oracle:

A human being that an entity is conducted to answer when consulted, they convey messages through this deity with the ability of communication of them. Oracles are considered to be dead to many, although there are reconstructionists today.

Patron:

A distinct Goddess or God you feel most connected and comfortable working in conjunction with, and is often displayed within their temperament. The number of patrons a human can have is a matter of choice, although most individuals choose one as their principal spirit.

Priest:

A priest is a human certified to execute the blessed traditions of a religion, deity, or spirit. A Priest is regarded as an authority, and often requires an initiation. This is also sometimes referred to as a High Priest.

Priestess:

A priestess is a woman certified to execute the blessed traditions of a religion, deity, or spirit. A Priestess is regarded as an authority, and often requires an initiation. This is also sometimes referred to as a High Priestess.

Veneration:

To venerate is to worship, respect, and admire another. Metaphysically, veneration is often used as a term of worship to a spirit or deity. Unquestionable and unconditional belief can be associated with this term.

hi <3 this isn’t meant to bring up bad memories or anything (please don’t feel like you need to answer) but with the hardship you went though, how did you stay consistent with having a strict mental diet? like how did u change ur life in a week by sticking with it, as I’m struggling really bad with homelife and feel like I’m just too drained daily bc of it. I’ve read your ‘how I changed my life’ post and I’m trying to apply the law but it’s like I never reach the sabbath state, even with persisting and affirming. (this isn’t meant to be a trauma dump I just need advice !)

don’t strain yourself, my dear. affirming is a technique, don’t do it if you don’t want to.

you’re not trying to get into the wish fulfilled, you’re already there. it’s the end state. take it easy on yourself.

close your eyes and ask yourself, in your imagination, do you have your dream life? say yes to imagination because that’s the only truth. that is what creates reality.

“I tell you the truth, the Son can do nothing by himself; he can do only what he sees his Father doing, because whatever the Father does the Son also does. For the Father loves the Son and shows him all he does.”

imagination is the father, the outer world is the son. it has no will of its own, only to serve and reflect what you claim to be in imagination.

now bask in this feeling that you do have it. not you will - you do. you have it now.

return to this state whenever you want to - it’s your end, your truth.

there’s no extra work you have to do.

with a mental diet, I only affirmed on loop whenever the intrusive thoughts that came affected my mood/mental state. for the others, they remained powerless so there was no point in going against them, just shift your awareness and let them pass.

this is very important

Thank you for your replies! I'll keep the precautions in mind. Although I must say it's very intriguing how he doesn't know about his origins. And what does he think of the Christians and humans in general? What does an eternal being do for eternity? What does he look forward to? Thank you for answering again :)

it is really interesting that he doesn't know his origins! i've never run into that question with my deities since they were all born. i also find it really cute how he doesn't have a physical form but could have one if he chose (and how he has favored pronouns?? legend). anyway, hope you see this anon!

omg working with deities sounds so cool! probably a stupid question but how does that work?

oh! well it changes a lot depending on the deity(ies) you're thinking of! for instance, the way people work with the christian god is a bit different from the way people work with the greek gods. it also changes a lot from person to person. some people like to pray while others never do.

i know this isn't a great answer but if you're interested in working with a deity, i would recommend researching them first! research their history, how people worked with them in the past and now, etc!

in general though, i'd say some common things are talking to them (out loud, in your head, through writing, however you want really), asking for advice/help/companionship, and giving them things (energy, gifts, answers, it really depends on the deity)/helping them in return. again, this does depend on who you're working with and how often so this whole list could be wrong for some deities. definitely do research if there's a specific one you want to work with!

Brief explanation of the Elements, Charging, Warding, Banishing and Cleansing!! Enjoy my lovelies!!!

I like the idea of soulmates but it fails to make sense to me. Yeah in first place to be born and be able to think and be aware of everthing is without official purpose too. Like to this day nobody can tell you really what the purpose of life is. So why should soulmates make ense or have a clear answer to them. But then also why are we being reincarnated, if you are into astrology you will come across the theme of things you learned in past lives and things you have to learn now but why? (1/~)

When will you be stopped reincarnated? Or does it stop only when a certain karmic debt is paid while you everytime get a new side quest. What role can the soulmate play when we are not always promised to meet them in every lifetime? If we can go a whole life without meeting them are they even important? (2/2)

that’s a run through several schools of thought:

the purpose of life is experiencing. (neale donald walsch) 

humans reincarnate because our driving force of remaining desire cannot exist in a vacuum after death. hence you escape samsara = the cyle through liberation from the suffering that comes with attachments. meaning, it leaves no unfinished business that would require another life. (theravada buddism)

among others, you can attain said enlightenment aka moksha through three ways. love of god = self, knowledge, or compassionate deeds — bhaktiyoga, jnanayoga, karmayoga. (hinduism)

you may be in your last physical life if your sun or north node is in the 12th house, meaning you went through the entire circle. if your 7th house is empty, your shadow side is resolved, so it won’t attract. (astrology)

karmic debt is not important, it can’t influence you if you choose to. only thought and the now matters. meditation is the key. (zen buddhism)

the soulmate plays their own role in the first place, is important by themselves. they’re not born to be yours. in fact, they do what you do simply as a different reflection. they’re merely a choice of many available to you, not a fate since free will is always granted to us. they could be important but you decide against it by your belief or vibration. ironically, once you see them outside of being solely in relation to you and focus on you, that’s how they arrive. (new age)

being your own soulmate matters first, otherwise a soulmate won’t materialize and exist on the outside anyway. the establishing of harmony and order inside of oneself is all that’s needed to steer things. what other people do will follow naturally and in balance to that. (taoism)
