-Jackal Pocket God-
Did you know there are more than a handful of Jackal names out there? Beyond Yinepu and Wepwawet, even more names take on that mantle of symbolism.
Anubis
Anupet
Duamutef
Khentyamentiu
Sed
Wepiu
Wepwawet
Wepwawet-ReRead more about them here.
They are as wide and diverse even within themselves as any other comparison. They are watchful, guiding, guarding. They blur and blend into one another, but still it remains clear that they carry their own standard. Which one speaks to you?
For Sale Here
And please, if there’s a name you want to see me sculpt. A piece from antiquity? I always take suggestions, and will try to fit them all in one by one into my schedule. I love hearing from you all and hope you continue to send messages.
Always,
Iseqi

i keep thinking about an event or something for polytheists focused on writingmyth retellings.
if its something specific itd be like a “MythReWriMo” (along the lines of a “Myth-Retelling Writing Month” or anything with less of a silly name fkdkdkd)
and maybe even something more non-specific? like not a month-long thing, but a more general event for coming up with retellings.
or better yet !! modern myths!!narratives or poetry
(with monthly or weekly prompts perhaps, maybe focusing on different deities depending on the time?)
i just feel like itd be so cool to have a little community interacting with our own versions of the known stories, and also with modern mythos, new stories, with the gods interacting with new domains that are a part of modern worship and cultus….
idk, something to think about maybe?
so Hermes inspired me to try out a new style…
thinking i’m gonna open up commissions for devotional art while i’m still setting up my proper art website, check my #devotional art tag for examples of my work, message me on discord (iamidae#9008) if interested :D

a little anubis box! $35 for sale! c:
A devotional piece I’m working on, inspired by descriptions of witches’ sabbats from the witch trials. It was often said that the revelry included a little band brought by the Man in Black to provide music
I drew and painted this piece with Aphrodite in mind. I don’t really feel like it fits how I see her, but the art itself isn’t too bad! So anyway, here it is!
Hephaestus on a glitter tumbler
Because I apparently can’t have enough Hephaestus cups for my tea
Cups so far.
Left to right; Hephaestus, the Changing Woman, Medusa, Aphrodite
Working on Aphrodite now.
In the background is The Changing Woman from Navajo mythology for my sister.
Hephaestus
So I keep disappearing, this is due to a lot of medical and life things but I am trying to make an effort to come on here when I can.
Currently about to start Chemo so am starting to paint cups of the gods as a way to survive when I can’t leave the house. Started with Hephaestus here
