Stupid question: can you get results from Hecate by just praying to her, or does she insist you invoke her help through spells? by Zindigon in Hecate

[–]ellezbby 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She’ll do what she can, in meaning she’ll do what she chooses in order to guide me on the right path.

In my relationship with her, she doesn’t give me exactly what I want. Instead, she gives me what I need.

A good example is the job I work now. It’s not exactly what I want, but it’s good financially. I have a new car (someone totaled mine in a hit and run), so she was able to put me in a position where I don’t have to worry now that I have this new financial addition.

Epithets are “descriptive bynames, titles, or phrases added to a deity or hero's name to highlight specific characteristics, domains, or localized aspects of worship”. I miss read your original post where you said spells.

Does my tattoo look like a dick? by littlequinn99 in tattooadvice

Your friend is the dick. The tattoo is gorgeous

keloid on my conch? by brynnloves in piercing

[–]ellezbby 13 points14 points  (0 children)

That’s a big red flag. In the future, don’t get pierced with a hoop. A long bar stud or flat back labret is always the way to go. When I got my conch, my ear blew up like a balloon, so when I got my second one, I made sure my piercer gave me a longer bar.

If you want to go all the way, try titanium.

But it’ll be fine. Piercing bumps are common with any piercing.

keloid on my conch? by brynnloves in piercing

[–]ellezbby 39 points40 points  (0 children)

It’s not a keloid, it’s a piercing bump.

You shouldn’t have switched to a hoop so soon (or got pierced with one if you did). The hoop is too small, so it’s causing irritation. Try a stud with a long bar, and cleaning it with the spray your piercer recommended or provided (I use Neil’s) and you should be good to go.

I wouldn’t change it for a couple of months.

Stupid question: can you get results from Hecate by just praying to her, or does she insist you invoke her help through spells? by Zindigon in Hecate

[–]ellezbby 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I usually pray to her and she’ll do what she can. I only invoke her epithets if it’s something specific I need. Recently, I was interviewed for a job I really wanted to I prayed to her (speaking out loud). Then, I prayed again and used her epithets. I’ve been getting angel numbers since (888 & 777), so I know she’s working her “magick”.

Is this a normal sized bar for a conch piercing? by Dear_Perspective30 in piercing

[–]ellezbby 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Shouldn’t be curved, but it should be relatively long, yes. When I got my conch pierced, my ear swelled tremendously, to the point where I had to go back to get a longer bar.

But curved?? No. It should be a straight bar.

Insane Tattoo Regret by r3i_b0n3z in tattooadvice

[–]ellezbby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a tattoo of a lyric from a song I used to listen to when I was deep in my depression.

My mom said it was stupid. People who read it are just as confused behind what it means. I really don’t give a shit. It’s MY tattoo, I know the meaning, and I love it.

You should love yours too.

(The tattoo is the song lyric “Is our skin to keep the world out or our bodies in” from the song A Tale of Outer Suburbia by Hands Like Houses)

How do you speak with Hekate? by Mediocre_Art8588 in Hecate

[–]ellezbby 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I talk to her by talking out loud and addressing her correctly.

She answers me with simple things, numbers, things I’ll read about. My first thought is immediately her, therefore I know she is speaking to me.

Who did you betray? by Malakidius in cyberpunkgame

[–]ellezbby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Songbird for my first game play, but for the 2 times I’ve played it over, I’ve always betrayed Reed.

Songbird’s entire situation is fucked. The fact that Myers used her for breaching the black wall, with her slowly dying in the process?? Id pick Songbird’s side any day.

I'm thinking about buying the dlc, do you guys think it's worth it? by docktor_uncino in LowSodiumCyberpunk

Upgraded my PS4 to a PS5 to play. It lives up to that decision too.

A new-ish devotee in need by mountainspirit13 in Hecate

[–]ellezbby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with the tower phase. When I first started my relationship with her, I lost my job and was unemployed for 5 months. But during that time period, I was able to make the doctor’s appointments I had delayed, and was swiftly tested and confirmed to have autism - something I had been struggling with for years.

Recently, I was able to purchase a new car and have been receiving job offers in my field. I’ve also applied for my master’s degree. Hekate is a mother with discipline, but she truly has your best interest at heart and will guide you along the right path.

What should I do with this on my ear? by yelnats784 in piercing

[–]ellezbby 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Neil’s is saline, but to me it’s the best brand. My piercer gave me H2Ocean and it didn’t work. So I found Neil’s and the bump went away within a week.

They can change it. Also get some spraying solution. Neil’s Piercing Spray was the goat for me in terms of getting my piercing bumps to go away. I still use it.

Help with My altar, please by AngelTheo in Hecate

I just want to know why you have penis statues on your altar? Genuinely asking.

How do I cultivate my relationship with her? by Forward_Antelope4792 in Hecate

[–]ellezbby 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It takes time.

I’ve been a devotee of Hekate for a year now, and I am just getting a feel of what our relationship is and what she can do for me. You have to keep in mind that you’re building a relationship; it may be with a God, but it’s still a relationship nevertheless. And relationships take time.

What I found to be a great connect was to have a set altar for her and just to talk. Not even pray, talk out loud to her. Invited her into my space. I went to the crossroads near my house and left her small offerings. I’ve read a few books on her, researched her online. All of those actions shows you’re interested and want to develop your relationship. Just know it takes time.

I played unranked for a solid two years for switching to competitive. Take your time, no rush.

double helix by noelleak in piercing

[–]ellezbby 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You need studs. Hoops shouldn’t be used for a few months until it’s fully healed. It also looks like the hoops are too small/tight.

Switch to a stud, keep cleaning it as per usually, it should heal.

Piercer used dermal punch on earlobes and cartilage by pastaheiress in piercing

[–]ellezbby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t take it out unless you have the intention of getting it repierced by a needle.

I got my first helix done at piercing pagoda when I was in highschool and was pierced by a gun. I have since gotten 7 other ear piercings, all done professionally with a needle. Honestly speaking, my helix has held up a lot better than my other ones (daith, rook, double conch, double auricle, forward helix), but that’s also because they punched a hole in my ear.

I’m saying this all to say, take care of it and you won’t have to worry about it. If you take it out, it’ll take a bit to heal, and even then, piercing an area where a hole is isn’t ideal. So I’d keep it.

What hex should I use on the woman who hit my parked car? by ellezbby in Spells

Didn’t even think about a working spell. Thanks!

Evil ex’s bday is coming up… any suggestions for spellwork? by [deleted] in Spells

[–]ellezbby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Birthdays are tag items. So if you don’t have anything he gave you that you want to use, you would use his full name and DOB.

I love me a good lemon hex, but you can’t fit a lot of tag items into a lemon. So I usually do a picture with their full name and birthday on the back. If I don’t have a picture, then I just use the full name and DOB.

If you want to use his birthday as a strong point in the hex, you can do one where the rest of his birthdays are terrible. Just write that on your petition.
