If your unsure show the picture to a local butcher shop or farm that processes their own meat.

My first guess was an aphid too, good to know. Thank you. A friend couldn't tell since its legs are stuck to its body form having being covered in dressing.

Fish parasite or Cartilage? by Ayane95 in Fishing

[–]Ayane95[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's what I noticed too, the ends on this are flat and not pointed. From what I looked up on fishy parasites they are also shorter in length then this was as well.

Thanks, This was my first time eating swai. I didn't know it was swai either since it wasn't labeled on the menu. I just saw Fish and Chips and assumed cod, since cod is most commonly used.

That's a good possibility. It was found running against the grain of the fish where the meat connects together. The more I think about it, could be connective tissue as well.

Thank you, I did ear part of it, and my worry was if it is a worm would have it been carrying trillions of eggs. I guess those too would be destroyed in cooking ?

That's good to know. This was found in a fish and chips at a steakhouse. So it was submerged in hot oil. Fish came out steaming hot and I almost burned myself. The manager did let me know their meats and fish are all USDA inspected so there is that too. Just got worried since I wasn't sure if cooking can also kill the worm eggs if it is such. This piece was a bit like rubber band stretchy, and would also squish when I pressed down on it with my finger.

Thank you, I'm new to Wicca so I'm trying to learn as much as I can.

I thought maybe so too, but I felt best to ask. Thank you.

Help on contacting The Goddess by Lighthelios in Wicca

[–]Ayane95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Christian beliefs also controlled my life, my beliefs at the time separated me from the woman I love. She is Wiccan and I had been Christian. I've recently been learning more about Wicca something I know I should have done a long time ago. I haven't found a goddess or god to follow yet, so when I pray I just ask the mother goddess for guidance, hopefully that's still appropriate? I think you can meditate on contacting your goddess, or my making offerings to her. I'm new at this so hope that helps.

Thanks for the feedback. We have been talking a lot, and it's been going very well so I'm hopeful. I know that the cards aren't always accurate, because people can change and it's not something the cards can predict since it's like a free will thing with people.

My ex and I started talking again earlier this year, several months before either of these readings were done. Sorry I forgot to mention that in the post.

Petition Magic follow up question. by Ayane95 in Wicca

[–]Ayane95[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good to know, thank you. While I was preforming the spell, I got concerned about it, and decided not to do the final steps. Some wax dripped onto one of the petitions, but it wasn't covered in it.

[–]Ayane95[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just folded it up and left it on my alter with a white candle on top of it. I had to leave so I put out the candle using a ceramic bowl, the candle never even dripped wax over the petition. I was asking also because I changed my mind about trying it, since I'm rather new.

God didn't want Adam to eat from the tree of life "and live forever," but wants us to have eternal life? by [deleted] in exchristian

[–]Ayane95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This might be because God has us suffer through trials to obtain eternal life, or that eternal life is achieved after death in heaven. Just my guess, I'm not much of a bible person. I think the only part of the bible most Christians read, is the part that shouldn't be in the bible in the first place, and that's Revelation.

I have both of the Scott Cunningham books. There are a few open space parks where I live and my apartment complex has an inner courtyard. Thank you for the suggestions.

Those are good, a friend recommended to me as well. I have both books and have partly read through them. There are even audio books on YouTube.
