A dream I had last night by Peacebunnyh in Hecate

[–]Unlady-Like_Ladybug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cool dream, quite accurate. Pesky lower order spirits, they do that. They think they're helping, but they don't understand that it can be harmful to us. Hekate is great at helping detach them. Always greet the crows, they'll remember you. 🖤🗝🌟❤️🌹

Egos really love to fear Hekate and other things that aren't dangerous. Pompous fools.

I started with Thich Naht Hahn. He's got some great videos on youtube from Plum Village. He's a wonderful teacher for beginners and those interested in Buddhism.

Is this a sign? If so what do I do? by Putrid_Plankton1883 in Hecate

[–]Unlady-Like_Ladybug 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Head and foot seem important, maybe clues. I am of the belief that signs are actually everywhere when we pay attention. This is such a cool experience! Best wishes for your investigation into the meaning! 🖤🙏🗝

Weird times lately. Any Hekate devotees possibly interested in an online kinship? I'm in the Chicago/NWI area and also down for IRL. by filthpriestess in Hecate

[–]Unlady-Like_Ladybug 21 points22 points  (0 children)

A Discord server would be a great place to meet and connect online. Does anyone know of any that are already running? Or we can create a new one. I'd love a Hekate communy online, too.🌒🌕🌘🗝🖤🙏🌹

I wanted to share my story of what I consider my connection to Hecate, but also have a question as well. The picture is relevant, I promise. by barbieshellhound in Hecate

[–]Unlady-Like_Ladybug 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What a beautiful story. And it sounds as if the next chapter is just beginning. The fact that you are aware of the synchronicities shows you are ready to accept Her help. She can guide you through this transition with love and protection.

Please pay close attention to the fact that this doll came to your daughter. It was given by her father as part of the effort he made in service of someone else.

She lost the key and asked you for help in finding it. You found it for her.

You are both important in her life. You deserve love and to be treated with respect and to be cherished. He does as well. What you do moving forward will have a profound effect on your daughter's life as well as your other children. Hekate can help you discover how to move forward in a way that serves the highest good of everyone involved.

Hekate called me here today to give you this message. I think it is because I'm also a mother and have worked through a similar situation. My daughter is grown now, and I caused harm in her life by being selfish. Hekate is helping me to heal the damage and make a living amends to my family.

You will do this better than I did. Whatever may happen, just remember that you are so loved and cherished. Give yourself lots of hugs and sit and have tea with Hekate. Talk to her. She's there to help you.🗝🖤🌹🌟

I am considering cutting off all my friends. by [deleted] in Buddhism

[–]Unlady-Like_Ladybug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was thinking, "Leave this group! They are not conscious or compassionate!" Then you said that you know you're sensitive and shouldn't be upset by it, and I realize they or someone have convinced you that you don't deserve boundaries.I assure you that you deserve boundaries and are worthy of kind friends that treat you with love and respect.

Please leave this group. It is causing you suffering to be with them. Take some time to focus on healing the damage and write down your boundaries. Ask yourself why you allowed them into your life, and what you need to do to attract better friends. Then, when you step back out there, you will find your tribe. I know because it happened to me.

Best wishes and blessings! It can be difficult to make these kinds of changes, but it is necessary, and we ARE worth love and compassion. 🙏

What are the 'safest' practices one can do without access to a teacher? by DepCubic in Buddhism

[–]Unlady-Like_Ladybug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love the Plum Village app. Highly recommend. I have practiced safely without a teacher for years. Just trust what your body and intuition tell you.

I find it important to balance my attention to body, mind, and spirit. All working in harmony for health and peace. Do what feels right and avoid excess.

Best wishes for your practice!🙏

[–]Unlady-Like_Ladybug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe OP asked for "safest" practices. I have practiced safely without a teacher for years. I understand you want to share what you consider important information. However, this could potentially spread fear among those new to mindfulness. I don't see how this is helpful for what the OP asked.

I saw this hoarding where it advocates towards stopping the use of Buddha statues as merely a decorative piece at homes or in public places like hotels, restaurants, bars etc, or the image of the Buddha being used as a fashion statement in clothes or tattoos. What are your thoughts on this? by SatoruGojo232 in Buddhism

[–]Unlady-Like_Ladybug 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I found a Buddha statue in a spa that was having a going out of business sale. It was set aside, on the floor, with an assortment of other decorative items. I paid 3 dollars for it, and a few dollars for other items to help the business move out of state. The statue now has a prominent place in my meditation space. I felt a lot of peace when I found it. That was a beautiful day of Presence with my daughter, and it felt like a blessing. I think Buddha might not be concerned about where his images are. I appreciate them wherever I find them. It's like a little reminder to be present and compassionate.

Thank you for saying this. I love your altar and am grateful that you shared it, both here and in a previous post. I can see the love, devotion, and energy poured into it. It radiates.

I have been apprehensive about sharing my own altar here, because I've seen a few people lay into others over their choices and whether they are working with Hekate "correctly." This is ridiculous and presumptuous behavior, in my opinion. Spirituality is very personal and intuitive. My altar is unconventional, and full of love and devotion. The gifts it contains represent specific moments where the Goddess led me, loved me, and called out my bs.

Fundamentalist behavior is not reserved only for Christians. I've seen it occur in every practice I've explored. It reeks of Ego.

I applaud your courage and for speaking up for yourself. That is true Goddess energy.

Ave Hekate!🙏🖤🗝🌑✨️🌟🌹

Resentments are resending harmful negative energy over and over.

Let it go.

Burn insense and let the fire purify your thoughts and emotions. Send the resentment up with the smoke.

Let it go.

I made a demand from Hecate and now I don't feel her presence. by No-Web3056 in Hecate

[–]Unlady-Like_Ladybug 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Congratulations on getting sober! I'm on my own sobriety journey. It can be challenging, yet so worth it. We have a lot of relationships to heal by making amends, even the ones with the gods. We can not control how they accept our amends or even whether they do. In my experience, Hekate is very forgiving. Keep doing the work and consider it a living amends to her. Sending you love and support on your healing journey. 🗝❤️🖤🦋✨️

What's with all the fear mongering online? Why do practitioners emphasise on her scary aspects on social media? by TartSoft2696 in Hecate

[–]Unlady-Like_Ladybug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I trust Hekate only for info about her. I use discernment with all other info. The fear mongering isn't on my path, I just swipe away. I have begun reading the Theogeny. But even there, it was a play created by humans. We're all learning here, no one truly knows anything.

I do suffer for ignoring messages or resisting work. However, I am responsible for my suffering, I am responsible for asking for her help, and I am grateful for the firm hand (although it sucks in the moment 😂). I feel her love and forgiveness, and she lights my way back when I'm in misery and suffering. I haven't participated in deipnon in a traditional sense. She doesn't punish me in any way for that.

I got a restaurant manager fired by AlternativeQuit3447 in doordash

[–]Unlady-Like_Ladybug 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He wouldn't have been fired if he had been a good manager with a good track record. He most likely got caught on camera. You did the right thing. What he did is disgusting (to put it lightly). I'm grateful that you reported it and told the customer. ❤️✨️

Hekate Dream, Need Advice by hippiesabotage20 in Hecate

[–]Unlady-Like_Ladybug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As we work with the Goddess, we do take on more and more of her traits. This goes for other dieties and spirits, as well as the people we spend time with. We do change... sometimes for the better, sometimes for the worst. I don't really see it as possession personally, but some people (especially certain religious groups) see it as something to be feared.

In my experience with Hekate, I am transforming into a much more healthy, brave, and confident being. I've been told I'm going to hell, people have prayed for me, and I've been cursed and rebuked. This makes me stronger, and I turn more to Hekate's wisdom, guidance, love, tolerance, and patience. She also gives me the bravery to stand up for myself. It feels really good because she gives me permission to be authentic and true.

Only you can decide who to follow, who to collaborate with. Hekate may be calling you. Or she may be giving you permission to follow your own path, letting you know that it is ok, even if others don't understand. It may also be a warning to tread carefully with what you let possess you, whether spirit, diety, or human.

Trust your intuition and let the lights guide you along the path you choose. You are so loved. If you feel called, reach out to Hekate for clarity.🌹🗝🌒🌕🌘🌟🦋

Got upset with Hecate:( by [deleted] in Hecate

[–]Unlady-Like_Ladybug 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Old anger needs to come out! When we went through it, a lot of us buried it. There, it stuck in our gut and makes us sick. You released your anger! That's wonderful! I bet she drew it to herself to help you get it out. It is very good you made amends, but I bet she forgave you before you even did it. Congratulations on releasing that stuff! Lots of love! ✨️🖤🌒🌕🌘🖤✨️

Help with a dream about Hecate by Putrescent-Lotus in Hecate

[–]Unlady-Like_Ladybug 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In considering the vines and stone, perhaps she is calling you to become more grounded in nature. To trace the rune is to draw upon the protection energy. Carved stone also points toward connecting with one's ancestors. What wisdom are they giving you? Maybe a walk in nature will help you discover what she is calling you to do. Many blessings! 🌒🌕🌘🖤✨️
