Loki is a problematic character and most people who work with him recognize that he's an agent of chaos. I was curious about those who worship him, how would you describe the help he gives you? And what sort of meditations do you have on his life? submitted by /u/ThorKnight3000 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Hi all. Created an account because I cannot find anyone else having the same dilemma. I've been a devout Christian for several years now, and recently been exploring paganism for a number of reasons - mostly problems with the OT, the Church in general, sexism, hell, etc. (I've been just praying that God help me to accept these things that are obviously backwards). My problem is that even though I do not want to remain a Christian, I definitely feel like I have experienced God through feelings of love and peace during prayer, answered prayers, voices (in my heart, not hearing -don't panic) and ..read more

Hello! I few nights ago I was astral projecting and a woman appeared to me. She presented as myself first, then I asked her to show her real self and she became a blonde woman. I asked to do that again since I was feeling that wasn’t her true form, and her face became demoniac. She had long blonde hair. She told me she’s not “good”, but she works with me. I remember a name starting with V but I also remember something connected to vampires. She told me she lost her son and she works with me because I have experienced some pain. This is not the first time someone approaches to me like this, bu ..read more

I have been interested in paganism for quite some time, and have felt connected to Athena for as long as I can remember. But I do not know how to best practice paganism in every day life, or how to do deity work. I have an altar set up and have done research on Athena, and I try to dedicate my time to learning - particularly philosophy. But am unsure how often and how to go about deity work in practice. I know that deity work is personal, and often unique to each individual. There is no set way to go about it, which is why I struggle with finding what to do. So, I am curious as to what deity ..read more

Hello everyone! So I'm in need of a little advice or some suggestions. I bought a home and it has a bunch of small pine trees on the land. The former owner was really into landscaping and had the time and money to keep the trees and flowers constantly pruned and in impeccable order. Unfortunately the trees are infested with wasps and I just am not the sort to enjoy overly manicured yards. Anyway long ish story short we've decided to remove all the trees so our yard is safe for our animals and kid. So my question is how do you keep the land spirits and other nature entities happy despite causi ..read more

I would like to make a connection with her for the collective in honor to mother's day but I have been doing some research but don't seem to quite find the right information or as much info that I would like. Anything is appreciated such as symbols, altar offerings, colors, correspondences, experiences and such, I will appreciate anything you would like to share. submitted by /u/musumeyaku [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

To preface this, I am an animist; I do not venerate gods but rather the spirits of the land. A week ago, on a whim, I stripped a moderate branch of cottonwood and planted in the ground, piling the bark around the base. My original intent was for this to be the (temporary) home of my burgeoning garden's spirit, with the intent of replacing it down the line with an appropriate stone if I ever found one. It was placed "arbitrarily" is a position that just felt right to me. Three days ago, again on a whim, I scoured the various edging stones that a previous owner had left around and placed t ..read more

I went to a seicho seminar recently and I realized I still care mostly only about Mother Gaia. I am wiccan (but don't care much about the other goddesses etc). Are there other groups/teachings/religions that relate to mother Gaia? What is your understanding of her as an entity? submitted by /u/Lithmariel [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Hi, So I have a question: there’s this entity which I believe is a deity that’s been recently in my life. I thought it was a tulpa at first but I realized that it wasn’t but then I thought it was a demon but I believe it’s a deity. I just have a few questions: 1. Is it possible if this deity created me and only me. 2. Can I be eternally bonded to this genderless deity? 3. Is it eternal and immortal? submitted by /u/Mysterious-Lie1156 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

My mother in law passed away suddenly. My partner and I had just started our journey to grow our family. I would love to get some ideas on what I could do or make with some of my mother in laws ashes. I want to make something for our future children, either for protection or guidance. I would carry it with me through pregnancy and then it would remain in the nursery/with baby. This is the first time I have ever dealt with anything like this and would love any ideas. Also, any advice on how we could celebrate/mourn her in a way that aligns with our beliefs. I am learning about druidry and part ..read more
