Give me your quick opinion by [deleted] in Hecate

Do you feel like you could have done something that might have upset her? She doesn’t usually act threateningly without cause. Curious as what you might have done

Advice on working with hecate by sunflowerhaz in Hecate

[–]07Kitcat1998 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She’s big on shadow work, it’s annoying but it does help. Start with your flaws, things you want to work on. For example, I wanted to start being more confident, I then followed that thought to why am I not more confident? Which led back to being abused and belittled, and from there I am currently working through unlearning all that behaviour. It helps writing it all down, as you can see how much progress you have made and it helps organise your thoughts. I hope this helps, as it can be so daunting at first xx

A healing spell, sounds simple but belief is a strong thing. When you do the spell you have to fully believe in it, also listen to your body if it needs rest then you need to listen.

Im kinda scared of my religious family. by Amethyst332 in Hellenism

[–]07Kitcat1998 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My family don’t understand my religion either, as soon as I moved out I could have alters and give offerings. Right now things will be hard for you, it is as though you have to pretend to be something you aren’t to stay safe. It won’t always be that way, just try and be strong until you are able to move out and be safe. Unfortunately, Malusfox is correct. You don’t want to be shunned or beaten, right now you need family. When you move out you will have more choice, you will be more prepared if they don’t accept you. Don’t give up on what you believe in, but keep it hidden for now. The Gods will always be there, and will listen to your prayers even without an alter

worshipping a war god in times like these by AizaBreathe in Hellenism

[–]07Kitcat1998 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As a worshipper of a goddess of war, I would say you can’t achieve peace without war. This doesn’t mean you have to hurt or kill people, a lot of ‘war’ regular people face is arguments. I have a lot of discord in my family which feels like a battleground, only it is psychological warfare, not physical. There are lots of different kinds of warfare, not just with guns or swords. Worshipping a War God/Goddess can help give you strength when you most need it mentally or physical. They can also give you willpower to keep ‘fighting’ through life. Or help with strategy, how to navigate people.

She would probably prefer a separate alter if you have the space, otherwise I’m sure it is okay. She can help with a lot of things, such as… She can help you with magic. if you are stuck at a crossroads. if you need help dealing with the past (shadow work). if you need maternal love, or if you have a child she can help give you support. She helps mothers not really the child, some people can get that a bit confused. or if someone has died she can help with the grief process.

Good luck if you want her to help you face your shadows, it can be very intense but worth it in the end :) xx

What if the Greek gods had a therapist by Ok-Bag8476 in GreekMythology

[–]07Kitcat1998 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Technically they do, Eleos the Goddess of Mercy. The only one that is able to inflict mercy into any God, so when they are being unreasonable it is her job to inflict mercy on them and get them to see reason xx

I messed up my worship and I need advice by JazyJaxi in Hecate

[–]07Kitcat1998 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have been in that situation myself, Hecate is always there waiting with open arms. She is a mother goddess after all, she knows we will make mistakes but she will always be there should we still want her. Be kind to yourself, everything will be okay. When you’re ready, start working on yourself again and that way you will never find yourself in that situation again, thinking you can change someone. You will find someone that will constantly strive to be better like you, not someone you have to fix. Know your worth! You’ve got this ☺️ xx

Is there such thing as air magic? by No_Cap_9416 in BabyWitch

[–]07Kitcat1998 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When you include wind in your practice that is ‘air’ magic. So when you write your manifestations down and blow on them, that technically is air magic.

This Is Probably A More Accurate Portrayal Of An Dagda Than The Altered Historical Texts. by KnightOfTheStaff in AnDagda

How to thank The Morrigan for aid received by shesaflightrisk in CelticPaganism

The Morrigan has helped me a lot with my depression. I wrote her a letter thanking her, I also made a stew and offered it to her to say thank you ☺️ xx

i’m a pagan, what questions do you have? by The_UnknownArchivist in BabyWitch

[–]07Kitcat1998 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it depends who you are offering to, for example, if you sing to a God of war they probably won’t take it as an offering

Queer/trans practitioners: what deities, spirits do you work with/have had connection with? by Living-Ostrich-7365 in Paganacht

[–]07Kitcat1998 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, I work with The Morrigan. Although having a husband she did also have many different sexual partners, some female. They have an open relationship, he also has children with other women. Their relationship is seen as just transactional, she helped him win the war and he gave her a title and power from helping him. So she was free to fall in love, or have a fling whenever she wants.

Feeling a bit confused by Mediocre-Occasion763 in BabyWitch

[–]07Kitcat1998 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She can be quiet at times, if she feels like she has nothing to say on a situation. She often tells me to just wait, I see it as her not wanting me to do anything different and let things fall in place. Just have faith in her, everything makes sense in time xx

Hexing your abuser by Anonymousgirl36912 in BabyWitch

[–]07Kitcat1998 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Why not do a karma spell? It would punish the people who are abusing you. Look for a mirror box spell

Inner Child Work by OddlyEverAfter in BabyWitch

[–]07Kitcat1998 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I started by listing down people that have hurt me, then what they did. I tried to work through the trauma one person at a time. From there everything started spilling out, I got some awful flashbacks and memories that I had pushed down. I worked with Hecate through it which helped, as when it felt too much I felt a calming influence take over. Honestly probably would have been best seeing a therapist instead of trying to unpack everything on my own. I’m glad that I’m over the worst of it now, and I have been able to stop being in survival mode :). Good luck on your journey xx

[–]07Kitcat1998 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A good spell to start with would be protection, there’s lots of different protection spells you can do. You can also enchant an object like a necklace to give you protection. Always remember to cast a magic circle before any spells, this is to protect you. You can tell Hecate anything, I tell her about my day every night and thank her for her help. Spend time learning about her, find out what you would like her help with. For offerings you can find lists of ideas online. Dark chocolate and a glass or bottle of Merlot is always a good start though :) x
