Been Back in Wicca for Two Months

Merry Meet!

Today marks 2 months since I fully returned to the path of Wicca and Hellenistic/Roman Wicca/Paganism/Polytheist. I have just loved being fully back practicing my chosen path, even if might confused the heck out of others. One of the things that I do plan on doing next month is to get my Hermes statue and place it on my altar. This month I got Athena, which I just really love.

I'm also getting things from Azuregreen and 13moons as well. In August I'll add Hex to the list and order my Yule and Hecate incense. The Summer Solstice was just great, full of energy, fairies, and the heat that marks a hot time before it all goes away and Fall comes around. I do intend to enjoy as much of it as I can. I hope that your month was just as great as mine.

Blessed Be!!!!

Summer Solstice (2015)

Merry Meet!

Today is the Summer Solstice, a time with the day is longer and the veil between the world is the thinnest. It's a time to enjoy ourselves and to thank the god and goddess that we have food growing out of the ground. It's a time with the sun is at it's most powerful and that everything is at its peak. However it's also a day of mourning. The sun might be at its height but it's dying.

The Holy King and the Oak King fight to determine who will rule until Yule. I'm going to enjoy my Summer Solstice and I'm going to have as much fun as I can have. Have a blessed Summer Solstice and may the fairies and the spirits treat you well.

Blessed Be!!!!

Going Deep Underground and Athenian Month of Skirophonion Begins

Merry Meet!

So I've been having one of these feelings that something just isn't right. One of the things that I've been noticing is that my mother is praying more and I feel that the prayers are directed towards me under the illusion of it being something else. I think that she's picking up that I'm practicing Wicca or close to it. One of the things that I have learned is to go with your feelings and to accept them as fact.

I understand that my mother is worried about me, but, please, don't make me feel that your directing them towards me. I will practice what I want and I'm not about to change things. I've even changed my name to my Magickal name just so that I can have peace and she can't find me. I hate having to do it, but I need the peace and I need the peace to practice my religion. On another side, the Athenian Month of Skirophonion will begin at sundown, tonight. I hope that you all have a good one.

Libations to Zeus (2015)

Merry Meet!

Part of my Roman/Hellenic Wiccan/Polytheist/ Pagan path is honoring the gods. And this month that goes to Zeus. I can't ignore the all powerful King of the Gods and this month is he is honored. I usually go outside to do any kind of godly honoring and I do have a stone that I use as an outdoor altar. I meditate there, now that the weather has warmed up, and I'm going to be pouring libation and burning incense. I don't have a statue of Zeus, but I have an eagle and that's his animal.

I went out and printed the ritual that I use for him, put it on the jump drive and printed it out. I'm going to be offering bread to him and then giving it to the birds. I will post a photo of the outdoor altar when I actually do the ritual. I hope that you all have a good one and may the gods bless you.

Blessed Be!!!!

Working with The Gypsy Witch Fortune Telling Playing Cards

Merry Meet!






So last week I got my order in and what was inside the order was my Gypsy Witch Fortune Telling Playing Cards. This deck I've been wanting for over two years! I just loved the whole feel of this deck and I felt that it was something that I could use without any problems. I've been working with this deck for nearly a week and I'm going to tell you that I really love it.

It's very easy for me to remember how to place the cards, if my wish is uncertain. The only thing that I have to work on is figuring out how to peace things together and form a story. I'm going to personally try a three card spread and see what happens. For now I'm doing a wish a day draw. I make a wish when the new day comes and the cards tell me, based on when the Joker appears, if my wish will come true. I've had some amazing results with this deck.

I've had a couple of people say that they have the deck, but I think that I'm the only one that's actually used it. I got rid of the massive amount of energy that was coming from the cards and I added my own. It's been a very interesting experience, to say the least. I hope that your having as good results with your deck as I'm having with mine. No matter what deck it is.

Blessed Be!

Getting Ready for the Summer Solstice

Merry Meet!

So next Sunday is the Summer Solstice, a time when the sun is at it's height but will start losing it's power as we get ready to go into the dark half of the year. And while, leading up to Lammas, we don't feel it, the sun is started to move away from where we are. One of the things that I love to do is get my altar ready for the Summer Solstice. One of the things that I always recommend to those new to the path is to find out what candles, stones, and herbs are good for a certain Sabbath.

I recommend 13moons as they have a whole section on holidays. Another thing that I like to do is drink summery drinks that I believe are perfect for this time of the year. We sit back and enjoy ourselves. We enjoy the presence of the fairies and the little people. And we morn the loss of the sun as we move away from the Summer Solstice and get ready for Lammas.

We know that it will soon be time for us to get our houses ready for the cold weather that's just around the corner and drinking hot drink and eating hot foods. My advice is to just enjoy this time of the year, don't hurry up Lammas, and to think about all the wonderful things that you will be doing this summer. The warm weather doesn't last forever and it's time to enjoy it.

Blessed Be!!!!
