Merry Meet!
Tonight I honor my god, Apollo. The god of healing, prophecy, music, poetry, and disease. As this is going to be a short post, I hope that you all have a good one and I hope that Apollo blesses you. Now some might wonder what I do on the night that I honor Apollo. I ask him for healing and I also do a three card reading to find out how this Athenian month will be.
As we are nearing the end of the month of May, I view this as a time to reflect and to think about the month that's ending and the month that's coming. I believe those things are important. I do this ritual every time Apollo's birthday comes upon me. And I have found that has connected me to the divine.
Blessed Be!!!!

Honoring my Goddess, Artemis, and Been a Greek Witch for a Month
Merry Meet!
So tonight, at sundown, I honor my goddess Artemis. I have four goddess that I honor like I have four gods that I honor. My main gods are Artemis and Apollo. My other gods are Athena, Hecate, Hera, and Hygeia. My other four gods are Poseidon, Apollo, Zeus and Hygeia's father, Asclepius. I do sometimes honor Ares and Hephaestus, but Artemis, Apollo, Athena, Hecate, Hera, Hygeia, Poseidon, Apollo, Zeus, and Asclepius are the main ones.
So I will be honoring her, tonight, and giving her the ritual that she deserves. Another great thing about today is that I have been a Greek Witch, or Hellenistic Wiccan, for a month. It has been great and I have enjoyed it. I'm working through Laurie Cabot's book and I will be doing a book review once I'm done. I'm just taking my time with the book. I own it, and don't see the need to hurry up.
I hope that you all have a great day and may Artemis watch over you.
Blessed Be!!!!

Pet Peeve: Asking for Spells
Merry Meet!
So I want to talk about something that really gets under my skin, asking for spells. All the time, on Facebook, I have people requesting for spells. This is a problem within the Wiccan community and one of the reasons that I don't consider them to be witches. If you have been a witch for a certain amount of time, and I'm not talking about the new ones, then why the heck are you asking for spells? I can't even figure that out for the life of me.
New witches are not a problem. I don't have a problem with them. I was new, but I have never asked for a spell and I never will. Know your damn shit is the same as knowing thy self. Know yourself! Know your damn craft! Stop the asking act!
I swear witches don't know how to damn think for themselves. This is a craft, and not a card game. I'm sick and tired of people asking for spells to protect their home, their children, their property. I'm tired of the asking for a healing spell. There are websites that are run by Wiccans that show you how to construct your own spell for anything that you need it for.
Go onto their website and use the information that is given to construct a spell and ritual. I have done several rituals and I have found that they have worked and have connected me closer to the divine. Heck I even craft my first rhyming spell. I felt like I had done something great. And that's the best feeling in the world. It means that you have done something and no one handed it to you.
This is one of the reasons that I don't like spell begging. All it does is show that you have not learned enough to call yourself a witch. To me, being a witch means that you know your stuff and therefore you do not need to ask for a spell. And since I have been doing this for twenty-three years, then I understand my stuff.
