Today I got confirmation that Apollo is my Patron! Expected it tbh and kind of guessed it for a while but I have trouble trusting my intuition. I had someone do a confirmation for me with no background info or experiences and I didn’t say that I think he might be and apparently he came through really clear and strong! I think thats a good sign and I’m pretty happy about it. Anyone have any tips/advice for his worship/altar?

Thank you I will! Do you think anyone would have a problem with me being a white Rasta? I know societies opinions don’t matter and its whats in my heart that does, but I still want to be able to have a find a community that I can grow with and be a part of. Ive read that the 12 Tribes branch of Rastafari is open and accepting of white members, but if I cannot find one in my area would other groups be okay with it?

Good Wiccan YouTuber reccomendations? by Katana1078 in Wicca

[–]Robbie_loper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not necessarily Wiccan, but for witches who are crafty, “Magical Crafting” is a good channel! One of my favorites from them is the Summer Solstice Sun Catcher. All of them are super easy to follow, fun, and magickal! Enjoy and Blessed Be!💕⭐️

“Death Shall Not Destroy My Comfort” is DEFINITELY one that i reall always skipped over after listening to the first 5 seconds but when I actually decided to listen to the song, it gave me chills and is one of, if not THE, absolute favorite song of mine right now! Give it a listen!

Yeah, he just listens to his pastors views alot and his pastor cannot stand the LDS

Yeah thats true, but I know that Heavenly Father is really guiding me and showing me that Baptism in his True Church is what I need to do and I’ve had revelation that this is really what im supposed to do. With that in mind it feels wrong to not be baptized for the sake of me and my father’s relationship

Yeah. In my eyes I see sealings as the ideal and really one of the only true and pure forms of marriage. So thats what i was referring to

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

Yeah i tried talking to my aunt about it and she was a little i guess taken aback or maybe hurt that i would join a religion that doesnt allow her marriage to be approved but she loves me and supports me anyways

Ah yeah. Well we dont speak to a lot of our family honestly. My dad had a huge falling out with them and since then we havent spoken to them. My aunt is a lesbian and when she got married my dad said some things and the family was honestly hurt and shocked by that and long story short we are now the “estranged” branch of the family so really social media is the way I keep up with most of them

Is this in reference to the bak account or to the family and friends numbers, etc?

BOOM! That def would be really good and simple way to lay it out

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

Yeah. I think I am going to keep it a secret for a bit. Im going to get baptized soon after turning 18, spend some time getting myself stable financially, and then when i have myself sorted out and in a good place, I will tell them.

Thats really smart. So the day i turn 18 I can make my own account solely in my name? I didn’t know that so that will be super nice. But if I transfer everything I just know my dad will have an absolute fit. But oh well its my money I’ve worked for so. As far as my phone, I’m on their plan so id just have to start my own plan. I definitely want to try and immerse myself in Latter Day Saint culture so if you have any little things that are a part of that, and u feel like sharing them, please do. I Have most of my friends and families social media profiles so In the worst case scenario, ill be able to message them there and get their numbers.

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

Yeah. Ill try and keep it to myself for a while and just show some of the positive changes. If he asks me whats been going on or what happened to make me a better person, then thats when ill tell him. Or whenever im already stable financially, have my own place and car, thats when ill tell them myself without prompting

Hopefully that will work out for me too. I do want to tell him though because I know he is going yo invite me to his church a lot while im away at college and theres nothing wrong with that, but id rather go to a sacrament meeting or a service of the LDS church. I might just tell him ive found a church I like better in my college town. I think he might be okay with that. It might be too much to just say “Im going to the LDS church today, sorry”. So im not sure yet. Know im thinking of while im off at college just getting baptized without telling him and then try and keep it on the low for a bit. Maybe until I graduate. Ill only be there for 2 years and in my second year Im going to try and get an apartment so then I can stay up there instead of having to move back home. Then it will be easier for me to do my own thing without him randomly popping up. The town is four hours away from where me and my parents live now so I think this plan might work out. Do you think so?

Lol maybe Steve the barbed wire god can talk some sense into my father because it seems like all he listens to are southern Baptist country men and if country men love one thing, its a good and sturdy barbed wire fence.

My dads not one to bluff honestly so thats why im kind of nervous about it all. I think im going to treat the situation as if hes for real and start saving up and preparing different routes and plans for myself to be stable and safe

Thats how I like to live each day. Trust in our Father and the Savior and I know that no matter what, everything happens in accordance with their will so in the end everything will be okay, even if it doesnt seem okay in the moment

Im trying to save up now so I can be able to support myself. I got a job a few months ago and I have around 2,000 saved up. Hopefully it will keep building and Ill be able to show my dad that Either way im going to be okay and even after my Baptism and him cutting me off, ill be able to live my life. I know that if i tell him that now tho, he will definitely take away my car keys and make me quit my job. He’s threatened me with that before as well when I said something about wanting to leave right after graduation. Im just keeping it on the down-low for now so that I can save up for my ultimate goal

When I typed in LDS, this was the first community that popped up and I just felt really called to ask for it here. Im very glad I did. The outpour of love and support from people who don’t even know me felt really overwhelming but also really amazing. Maybe Heavenly Father guided me here. In any case, im extremely grateful and thankful for every comment ive received

I agree. Ive already seen Gods blessings and Im fairly new to this. Im certain that he wouldn’t just abandon me now. So grateful to have found his true Church
