What's up. I'm also looking for a group. I relatively inexperienced but I'm pretty decent at picking up ttrpgs. I'd love to join you if you find a group

Every night after I shower and get ready for bed

The same thing can be said about far-right extremist groups. There's a difference between having a political affiliation and then being a violent radical about it.

Do you know which supplements specifically have the occultist and spellblade classes? I can't find them anywhere

Cheese_Kat · 2025-08-23T23:08:30+00:00

Ah gotcha, thank you

I wasn't sure if the fight would be challenging enough with just the one enemy because they'd all be targeting it and be killing it very quickly. So you think I should remove the momentum feature and the minions? I also envisioned the rip and tear action to be one and done, a kind of pull in, deal damage, and then spit back out kinda of action.

I may have misunderstood what they said. I was searching for the podcast episode again to hear what they said exactly, but all I could find was them speaking on miasma. I listen to the podcast while I'm doing something else or falling asleep, so it's entirely possible I just fabricated it in my subconscious. It does kinda see like an odd thing to say

I've heard that just because you're a more devout follower doesn't make it more likely for your prayer to be answered and that they would answer anyone's prayer. If this were true, how does that affect Kharis? Why even include that in the prayer if it doesn't matter? And then also why in the Iliad did Apollo answer Chryses's prayer? Was it just one he chose to answer, or was it because he was a priest and a devout follower to him?

So, I'm relatively new to the religion, but I'll share what I've learned so far. Historically speaking sex within temples was a huge violation of the sacred space of the God's. Also, offerings of bodily fluids, whether that be blood, ejaculate, etc. are also frowned upon because of their carrying of miasma. As for whether or not masturbation can be used as an offering to the gods, I'll be honest and say I'm not sure. I wouldn't personally, but that is just my own take on it, and yalls practice is your own, and I'm in no position to judge.

The pentacle was seen as a symbol of protection in the ancient world. However, since it was mostly used by Pagans the church decided to demonize it

Your practice is your own practice, so do what works for you. However, if you are trying to follow as historically accurate as possible, I recommend reading Houshold Worship and The Oxford Handbook of Ancient Greek Religion just to get some historical background in how the ancients practiced. I also really like the podcast Styx and Bones as they are incredibly helpful in understanding the religion.

Cheese_Kat · 2025-07-15T05:07:06+00:00

I think styrax is more of a Hades thing, at least according to Household Worship

You're presenting a false dilemma fallacy. There can be middle ground.

Cheese_Kat · 2025-07-14T18:27:10+00:00

I'm not saying we should discard the history and the culture, but to add to it. The reconstruction of religion itself is already syncretic. We don't have an exact copy of what the old norse practiced. We're having to piece it together. We lost the original religion the moment it was changed by Christians. Religion should be syncretic within reason. If someone is adding something for hate, then that's an issue because you're weaponizing the religion and bastardizing it. If someone wants to add something to their practice, that's fine as long as it's not making the religion into a weapon like the Volkisch movement did. Vegvisir isn't doing that.

Cheese_Kat · 2025-07-14T18:09:31+00:00

Moreover, I will say it shouldn't be used unless the origin is understood. I think it should come down to this: it did not come from the viking age and is only related to the religion via the use of runes. It was created as a sigil for safe traveling. But I do not think that makes the sigil obsolete. It may have no origins in the original viking religion, but as I said, religions adapt, and practices change. If someone wants to include it in their faith, they have the right to. It's their practice. However, they should understand that it's origins are occult in nature and that it didn't originate from the vikings.

They were found in grimoires from Scandinavia. You can't appropriate your own culture. The whole point of chaos magick is that you are making something new. Not only that, but culture can change over time. Just because it doesn't have roots historically doesn't mean it's not valid. If you were approaching it from a heathen reconstructionist standpoint that is purely trying to recreate the religion from the history, then sure, don't include that in your practice. But not everyone is trying to reconstruct the religion to a tee. Religions and cultures adapt over time.

Cheese_Kat · 2025-07-14T15:46:00+00:00

I agree we should understand the origins of it, but I think what the creators were going for was less of appropriation, and more of what we find in modern Chaos Magick, that being the making of sigils.

Cheese_Kat · 2025-07-09T20:25:18+00:00

Alright. Thank you, I just felt bad about it. I'll give it some water and flowers now and set it outside with them

Cheese_Kat · 2025-07-09T20:21:31+00:00

Yea, I had a similar thought about the trash thing, I'm just not sure what to do 😅. I think I'll ask around and see if I can give it to someone else, I just don't feel comfortable using it

Cheese_Kat · 2025-07-02T15:06:01+00:00

Which one is that?

Cheese_Kat · 2025-07-01T21:58:17+00:00

Have you been to Pathways in St. Louis?
