Draw good health sigils on your medication bottles and/or pill dividers. Just be careful not to draw over important medical information. As always, keep your intent focused on a good outcome resulting from taking those medications while drawing the sigils.
Hi everyone! I’ve been swamped with schoolwork, and I apologise for not being active, but thanks to all of you for almost 600 followers! I’m so amazed and grateful. It feels like yesterday that I made this blog, and I’ve been so immensely blessed by each and every one of you.
School is actually what’s made me log onto Tumblr again. (And no, unfortunately not because I’m procrastinating… ) One of my Anthropology courses requires me to complete some interviews on a topic of my choosing. I’ve met some truly wonderful people on here, and I would love to give you the chance to tell me a little about yourselves!
Here are a few things to know:
the interviews won’t be long, only about 20 minutes
we’ll need to be able to skype
consent forms will be sent via email
you get to tell me a little bit about yourself, your practices, and your beliefs!
must be 18+ (for legal informed consent reasons)
Don’t be afraid to contact me if you’re unsure of the requirements—chances are, you meet them!
You can identify as a witch, wiccan, or any other type of pagan! If you’re interested and want to set up an interview or just ask for more details, please email me at[email protected]
I’m super excited for this project, and I look forward to getting to know you!
So, I’ve had my sh*t absolutely rocked by a cold and it’s showing no sign of going. Huzzah. That does mean, though, I’ve had ample time to come up with creative ways to honor Apollon while I get over it, so here goes another installment of bedridden worship.
Here’s some of my handy ways to worship him from my bed and room.
Activities
Listening to music
Writing poetry (it doesn’t need to be good)
Researching ancient hymns
Researching medical history
Sitting by a window or outside in the sunlight
Eating honey
Learning about bees (trust me, they’re cool as hell)
Making devotional jewelry
Drawing him or his symbols (snakes, the sun, crows, bow and arrow)
Making a mini or online altar/shrine
Decorate empty pill bottles
Habits
These should be done to the best of your ability in their honor.
Daily prayers (I usually do them right before bed)
Dedicating 5 minutes a day to learning about topics relating to him
Offering the energy of whatever you’re drinking
Meditation or just napping
Your Space
Things you can add to your room to make your space have more of his ‘vibes’
Larkspur (what the Greeks called hyacinths)
Beeswax candles
Bee, snake, and crow iconography
Crow feathers (for legal reasons, only fake ones if you’re in the US, but ;))
Skulls and bones (real or fake)
Art with bow and arrow imagery
The colors yellow, white, gold, and green
Keep a bay laurel–mine survived a while, I do think it might be dead though
Amber in any form
Suncatchers
Offerings
Note that any devotional activity can be an offering!
Candles
Incense or diffused oils
Wine (if you’re of drinking age)
Water
Honey
Flowers and herbs, especially bay laurel
Donations to medical foundations
Mutual aid for or in support of young people
Artwork
Original hymns, prayers, or poetry
Apollon loves you, and he understands that you need to rest. Your health and self care always comes before worship. Arete is your personal best, and your personal best is what you can do without hurting yourself.
In honor of Nemeseia being today (5th of Boe.), I wanted to make a follow up bedridden worship for Nemesis, goddess of revenge and the forgotten dead.
Like Dionysos, I’ve worshiped Nemesis since the very start of my practice, and like them, she’s always been understanding of my disability. As I’m writing this, I’m celebrating Nemeseia while totally unable to walk due to chronic pain, and she’s fully accepting of that.
So, here are my practices to honor her from my bed and room!
Activities:
Listening to music
Donating to mutual aid
Researching Nemesis and Rhamnous
Researching civil rights
Researching criminal justice
Online activism (writing & sharing information on civil rights, for example)
Learning about systems of oppression
Reading the Iliad (in myths she is often the mother of Helen)
Making devotional jewelry
Drawing her or her symbols (wings, whips, geese, wheel)
Making a mini or online altar/shrine
Habits:
These should be done to the best of your ability in their honor.
Regular donations to mutual aid, ie monthly ones
Daily prayers (I usually do them right before bed)
Dedicating 5 minutes a day to learning about topics relating to her
Offering the energy of whatever you’re drinking
Your Space:
Things you can add to your room to make your space have more of her ‘vibes’
Feathers, especially goose feathers
Daffodils/Narcissus flowers
Leather items (jewelry, whips, etc)
Chains
Balance scales
The colors red or black
Art with wing imagery
Skulls and bones (real or fake)
Offerings:
Note that any devotional activity can be an offering!
