all the aphrodite stuff is really useful to me right now, i literally just went to one of her ancient temples in athens yesterday and left a ring just outside as an offering (couldn't go inside bc it was fenced off lol)

Me, siting here as a follower of Tyr; *WHY ARE THERE SO MANY APHRODITE ALTARS????*

[@honeyangel7]

I already knew how to conform deities with three cards and question asking. This is really helpful to people. I really was confirmed that a few Deities would like to work with me like Persephone and Ares gave a big YES. I was very surprised tbh. I'm a calm and understanding person but let me tell you.. Zues, Hermes and Apollo.. love to give you a teasing answer. I kept laughing because it never stopped when it came to the answers for them, a teasing maybe basically. Regardless, anyone have any tips for working with Ares or the Fate sisters?

[@randomlyblessed6871]

Omg how. Idk why I have a sudden interest in deity work but in Christian anyway could you put how you did it? If you don't mind ofc

[@honeyangel7]

@Randomlyblessed it's kinda an obvious way. While I would at the time asked a few high experienced witches at the time. They basically did a reading(tarot reading), you can look up what cards mean "yes, no and maybe". If you know how to read cards, they give very big hints to whomever are you deities. I say more than one because everyone is different and just haven't named the other Deities I have in my life. Anyway, like in the tiktok, go down the list of Deities you want to work with and ask three times if they would like to work with you. Why three, it's to make sure. If you know how to read cards you're halfway there. If after you want to make sure you're talking to that specific God/Goddess and not a trickster spirit. So asking them specific questions that only that Deity would know is very important. It's really simple but very draining if your gonna go into it you'll be very surprised at the answers of what you'll get. I understand people say "wait until your ready" but I felt like I really was ready to hear these answers. I had fun with my own reading and it was surprisingly similar to the readers I've hired. Sure, there might be someone who tells you, "this isn't the way" but not everyone can read a sign and no one can really tell you how to do your craft. That's your path. I'm a catholic witch, still learning everyday. My mother does Brujeria so she passes her knowledge onto me and I do the same. I wish you luck on your path.

[@UndecidedASMR]

Can confirm, I asked Apollo to show me yes/no on his new pendulum and he gave mixed signals, so finally he gave me a straightforward answer 😭

[@HALOSnHORNS]

Okay but 11:11 is just a vibe like yes, drink from their skulls as you turn in your black ballgown. You go girl 🤣

[@jiliciar.1423]

I loved that working with Aphrodite clip but it confirms everything she showed me about herself yesterday. She came to me in a dream and I'm in the broom closet. I was already into making my own pendelums so I gathered materials and let her choose and she chose a silver bracelet, a fake diamond thingy that's big, and a red string. I also carried her pendelum to choose a stone she would like from our yard and I was led to a beautiful white stone, it wasn't huge but not tiny either, it's a decent small size and even tho it's plain white it's so beautiful. I don't have a proper altar yet, I need to declutter some space but I have her pendelum & stone in a small clear container with a pink lid. The good thing is I've always been weird ever since a kid so no one questions me when they see me going outside or carrying the pendelum however I still have to hide 99% of things just to not be questioned too much because my parents are strict close minded christians.

[@asterisk994]

This (and lots of tarot and research) made me realise freya is trying to reach out to me (and probably was trying for a long time)

[@yeahno8516]

I'd love seeing some Gaia tips cuz they're very rare to find

[@fckmylife4093]

i started my craft in year 4 because we did it in school and i got a book on it and it looked cool i’ve been doing it for a while but it’s been on and off i finally started a kind of permanent book of shadows🌞 blessed be

[@rosettajohnson2826]

That Persephone "slay" bit explains a lot about my most recent Persephone dream. I love the confidence she gives me but this was the first time I can say our interaction was scary.

[@Amyduckie]

That was so interesting. I’d love to see a few videos on pop culture witchcraft and more sea witch vids, if that’s cool. 💖

[@MoonlitBookworm73]

I love all the Aphrodite tips in this video, very helpful!

[@rats9840]

Stop I got Aphrodite a black widow funko pop as a statue

[@HALOSnHORNS]

Soooo idk if it's Aphrodite, I know it's a female diety and Def love dionysus as one of the greek gods. But I want more idk I'm hesitant. Anyone else or just me?

[@hollow_shadows]

If they’re female they technically could be Dionysus because from what I know he was raised as a girl and is like associated I think with gender confusion

[@spaghetti_soup]

ok idfk man i’m just gonna speak into the void for a minute 💀 so i used to worship Loki a lot like about a year ago, i made Him had an altar, i gave Him offerings a lot, i talked to Him everyday. then idk what happened, i guess i was kinda getting burnt out because i felt like i was putting all this effort in but i wasn’t seeing any signs that He was actually there. but now i feel like someone is reaching out to me, i’ve been thinking it was either Lilith or Aphrodite (or maybe both idk), but during the one video that talked about Loki i just had a moment where i thought “dang i really miss Him.” so now i have no clue if it was him all along or if someone else is reaching out to me, and i think i wanna start worshipping Loki again but if there is someone else i don’t wanna ignore them but idk if i’m ready to work with multiple deities yet. but yeah that’s my situation rn 💀

[@taylorrowan4320]

This was awesome! Very pertinent to my life RN haha. Do you know if you could add any Athena videos sometime soon? In another comp? She’s a little under represented asklkssksjdjdj

[@-satanicpanic-]

8:14 Lmao I had to do this bc he was sending spiders as signs and I'd see them in the bathroom like every night. I'm not exactly a huge fan of spiders tbh, I respect them but they gross me out. Haven't seen one since I asked him to stop sending them.

[@Just-Calebs_alt-offical]

more gaia deity work??? i love your videos and i think shes the goddess im being called towards

[@4rnix317]

ive beeno woeking w hades for about a month or more and hes hid my glasses, my umbrella( its raining the last two weeks) and my school uniform tie... and he just- i ask him to help me find my glasses and he ssys ok, then doesnt help at all💀💀💀💀

[@severalroses4909]

I love these! 💜

[@Trippy000]

How do I tell what my deity wants? Like the video about Lokie. Is it just like a mental like you can tell when hes there and tell what he wants or is it a physical like seeing them thing? I just started deity work and am working with Apollo. The only thing I've done is tried to offer him food when i think "oh, Apollo would like this." And he had given me CLEAR no's on the whole food situation. So I think i will just try buying things or finding things I think he would like. Is that how I can tell? Like I just KNOW when he wants something?

[@rawr161]

Me a very insecure person wanting to start working with Aphrodite: 🙃

[@sid2082]

Ok I have this gut feeling that Apollo has been reaching out to me. I’ve been seeing a lot crows lately and the other day I saw maybe over 100 crows in the most random area. If you guys have any suggestions on what I should offer or what I should do please feel free to comment! By the way I haven’t worked with any deities yet so he would be my first one! 💛 ☀️ 🏹

[@abbysefcik6749]

Hi! I've personally never worked with Apollo but I have left him a lot of offerings in exchange for helping me. One thing he loves is bay leaves, so those are great offerings. Also, try devotional acts. If you are artistic you can draw him something that represents him, you can dance as a devotional act, and you can take some time to sunbathe as he correlates with the sun, or write him poetry. Apollo is a God of many trades and he is kind and energetic, just simply google "offerings for Apollo" and you will find something. Also, make sure you aren't just in an area that has a lot of crows and cover your bases as many deities have crows and Ravens as symbols. Good luck in your journey

[@sid2082]

@@abbysefcik6749 thank you so much I’m highly appreciate the tips!

[@KazKindred613]

Apollo was also my first deity :D In my experience he’s very kind and wants you to work on yourself, he cares about the value of offerings more than the material value. If you’re looking at something and your intuition tells you he’ll like it, then he will. You can also get candles and ask if he likes something, and he’ll answer by the flicker of the flames. Like the person above me said, he likes devotional acts, specifically in terms of artistry (especially poetry and music, he loves when you write poetry in honor of him or inspired by him). Lots of yellow and sun motifs are good as well. If you want a sign from him he’ll probably give you one (I asked for a sign and then the first book I found had an mc named Apollo lmao).

[@gretablackwell495]

I know this is a long shot considering she’s not one of the “popular” theoi but just in case: are there any Tiktoks about Kleio (or Clio, if you’re more fond of the Latinized spelling) out there? Or any of the Mousai really. I’m having a rough time finding resources. I’ve been praying to Kleio for a while because a) she reached out to me and b) I’m a history student, but I can’t find any others who worship her. Idk I’m just feeling a bit isolated and I’m starting to worry that I’m “doing it wrong” because I can’t find anyone else’s experiences with her to compare with my own. If you can’t find anything, no worries! I just feel the need to ask just in case

Loki treats me like a bro in a way and i love it [bc im a trans dude]

.. . They spelt Dionysus wrong, but chill

[@milesislost3354]

technically no, that user uses the transliteration of our boi's name. the spelling ur used to is the latinized version of his name, but both are correct!

[@lunowren]

Someone asked me recently how to get in contact with a diety, what they had to do, what the qualifications are, the basics. And I’m having quite the hard time explaining since I’m still relatively new to it, could anyone explain to help me out? /nf

[@shimmerandshadow7292]

Could anyone help teach me reach out to Aphrodite, I’ve only had one deity reach out to me and that was eris

[@randomlyblessed6871]

Is it possible to work wit deities but not want to astral project like pit that as a boundary with a deity?

[@Eve.v]

oh friend, astral projecting is such a new and unrelated concept when it comes to worshipping deities -- you definitely don't need to do it! and yes, you can and should set boundaries about what you are and aren't comfortable with. it doesn't matter who it is; if someone, something, or some god does or requests something that makes you uncomfortable, you should ALWAYS voice that. i think it's great and healthy to let your preferences be known up top, so, yes! it's been possible to work with deities for thousands of years without astral projecting (and thankfully continues to be to this day) and it's wonderful, good, healthy, and correct to set boundaries with any person or entity you want to be in your life. hope this wasn't too rambley 😅 have a good one!

[@randomlyblessed6871]

@@Eve.v it was a lovely explanation thanks. I got really scared because of a video talking about forced astral projection and it wasn't very settling. But again, thank you so much for th clarification

[@cardinal3355]

Hello, i know this video is a month old and I may not get any responses, but I just got in contact with my first deity, who happens to be Artemis and does anyone have any tips? Ive been communicating with her via pendulum mostly, but any pointers for the first timer would be very much appreciated. Blessed be!

[@YourWitchyCousinTikTokComps]

From my limited knowledge: 1. White & maybe blue or silver candles are nice for an altar 2. Regular offerings (they don’t necessarily have to be something super big) 3. Most deities will accept researching their culture & mythology as an offering 4. Take hikes in the woods (if possible) 5. Stare at the moon a lot (maybe? Idk)

Good question! And deity is a god or goddess. A higher being, if you will
