Kind of obsessed with it/its as a pronoun. My friend Shtar put me on it. Sometimes I just want to identify as abyss/abyss's.

Remember that "I am worthy of love" and "I struggle to accept that fact" can and do coexist. Struggling to accept that you deserve love doesn't make you any less worthy of it.

Articulated Dragon Hammered silver Elaborate craftsmanship gives this imaginary creature made of silver a sense of life. The body, legs, claws, and mouth are movable, allowing it to be posed in a variety of ways. By Satomi Shigeyoshi (born 1843) Tokyo National Museum

9 keys of Hecate

The nine keys of Hecate are a set of symbolic keys representing different aspects of Hecate, a goddess in Greek mythology associated with magic, witchcraft, and the underworld. These keys are often used in modern witchcraft and paganism as symbols of unlocking wisdom, intuition, and mystical realms. Each key may represent a different aspect of Hecate's power or symbolism.

the darkness

the darkness is so peaceful it’s like quietness the world is asleep. Why is everyone so afraid of darkness? In the darkness is where we heal it’s where we learn to love ourselves. In my own deepest darkest times I’ve found Hecate guiding me and if she’s taught me anything it’s that those darkness that is within ourselves is valid and loveable. It’s not scary. It’s the parts of ourself that we’ve told or have been told that is shameful and that it needs hidden. Our dark side needs loved too. Our dark side has been abused it’s been neglected it’s been told to hide. I’m tired of hiding my darkness. My darkness needs me. It needs acceptance. That’s something a lot of people don’t do is accept their own darkness. Hecate with the torch guiding me to the light unlocking the doors to myself. She has taught me how to love myself whole. Raw. Every aspect of me. Don’t be afraid to love yourself. The darkness is where I’ve found myself. You are worthy of love. Even the parts you try to hide in your own darkness.

"The Craft became a foundational film for me and my friends, signifying a form of teenage rebellion we had never seen before. At an age that finally allowed for more independence, seeing such a queerly coded film in the cinema was also a newfound opportunity to continue building horror film rituals in dark theatres, without parents, turning candy consumption and communal viewing into a sacred practice of feral autonomy."

"What resonates with me still is The Craft’s depiction of how the occult can function as a source of queer and feminist curiosity amongst teen girls. The film’s slumber party séance is a crucial moment of rebellion for the angsty witches keen on revolting against the restraints of Catholic girlhood. When the coven’s only Black girl, Rochelle Zimmerman levitates during a game of Light as a Feather, the whole coven is responsible for this otherworldly feat. And when Nancy compares the game’s premise to fingerbanging, a match has been struck for me." ✰

❄️🧊the Mammoth Ice Dragon🧊❄️

I'm not quite sure where I found this image now, possibly instagram? When I saw this dragon, I wanted to be this dragon tbh, I love the design. I want to be it/him/her/they. It's for sure different looking than your regular western and even eastern dragons. It reminds me of one of the super big mega dragons from How To Train Your Dragon tbh, but I love that. I'm sure the artist must have taken inspiration from the films. Big fan in all honesty, of most dragon content in general that has come out within the last 2 decades or so...call me a fanboy/girl if you wish. I love em.

I wonder...what would someone work on with this kind of dragons help/aide? I feel toughness against the elements, whether that be physical, mental, or spiritual. Definitely a dragon to work with in the winter but also all the seasons. Would love to see this lady in the spring time, I'd imagine this dragon hibernates through the spring and summer. Just my take on this dragon...probably is a dragon of war as well...which actually corresponds to my recent interest in the god Ares 🤫

This dragon definitely breathes ice instead of fire.

a Hekatean Priestess? In Spring? Groundbreaking.

just starting out with tumblr again, I was super active here from like 2013-2015. I was a fandom tumblr, and then not much later a pagan/hellenic polytheist blog(s). so SuperWhoLock tbh. and Loki from the MU. Oh and Hannibal. my Hannibal blog is maybe still around somewhere? Funny. My main/original tumblr blogs were : hiddlesasshat, paintedpagan, and ballodofawitch. My tumblr origin story lmfao.

At one point I had deleted all my blogs out of deep rooted christian shame, thought I was "rededicating my life" to Jesus. Turns out 2 years in a row I just had Jesus Christ Summer Fever. Yeah, idk, I'm just relaying the experience. I am, have been, and will be, a practicing pagan pantheist/hellenic polytheist/Hekatean dragon (draconic?) witch. Ask me anything. This is my opening post, but I'll save some lore for later.

Anyways, I'm back for the foreseeable future. My main dedicated Hellenic blogs right now are @hekatedrakaina @hekatebuthios and @aphroditenymphia 🩷 I've barely started them though so don't expect much heh

Posting because 3 is a sacred number to Hekate and I figured I'd do a personal post on my personal blog. Yes the image that is my current wallpaper is AI made I'm pretty sure, I found it on Reddit in a Hekate/Hecate subreddit. I likes it so I put it there, I really appreciate this image of her and may try to recreate it myself somehow. I like to draw, sing, and write 🤙💛 Hail Apollo ☀️

I've been courting Hekate offically since 2021 but only started full on working with and worshipping her in 2025. So at some point I'll talk about my experiences, but it's still somewhat the beginning for Hekate and I's relationship, so I'm taking it slow with the posting. I've been aware of her for at least a decade though. anywho...

Hail Hekate Drakaina 🤎🔥🐉

The Mother of Dragons, and Mother to me and you,

Hail Hekate Paggennêteira, Hail Hekate Pammêtôr

Hail Hekate, Mother of All
