I am appalled and disheartened this morning to see people who claim to be Hellenic polytheists on tumblr posting their support for White Supremacists, and condemning those who oppose their hateful agenda.  

Hellenic polytheism stands for 

Eusebia - reverence and duty toward the Gods

Arete - striving to live to one’s fullest potential

Hagneia - moral purity

Sophia - wisdom and understanding

Sophrosune - self-control

Xenia - hospitality, generosity and courtesy

There is no place for hate in Hellenic polytheism.

Candle reading made easy

Hey loves, I don’t want to make this post suuuper long so imagine me blowing a welcome kiss to all of you and let’s get started…

The generic practice of reading fire is called pyromancy. 

We can break a candle reading session down to 3 main parts:

Observation (flame watching)

Gathering & understanding (decoding fire’s messages)

Final question & Goodbye (ask if there’s anything else you should know before leaving, thank and salute fire/salamanders)

During the observation phase, watch for:

Length of the flame 1-2 min to know WHEN-the timing = PAST

Shape of the flame 2-3 min to know WHAT-the actual matter = PRESENT

Direction & behavior of the flame 3-4 min to know HOW-the true nature of it = hints at the FUTURE (see where the fire is pointing to know what type of matter it is; concentrate on the opposite direction telling you how to counteract to solve or banish whatever it might be; it also indicates what elemental energy is strongly supporting/protecting you in taking action as well as in related spellwork)

Presence/Absence of Smoke 2-3 min to understand the SOURCE of your awareness 

*Keep a compass handy!

Salamanders/fire will try to communicate with you as soon as you light the fire/candle so pay attention from the very beginning. Fire energy is impulsive, blunt, active, carefree and wild.  This type of divination detects negativity like WOW because it easily speaks the brutally honest truth regardless of how you feel or what’s happening. It brings up issues that we refuse to deal with. Again, it’s pure blunt energy. Because of its wild nature, fire will also charge us with optimism and explosive determination to overcome problems and bad news: typically after pyromancy we feel motivated and “ready to go”.

Length

Long-extra long: something has been bothering you for a very long time now (trust your intuition, probably for years) which you never actively faced; you’ve been quiet for too long; unsolved problems from the past are challenging your patience; relevant stuff that had to be cleared much earlier

Medium: Something that has been lurking in the back of your mind for 1-3 months, a plan or an idea that could change/shake your life but is not currently a priority to you; it might be something you heard from another person or a vague thought

Short: something intense that happened within the last couple days, a very recent thing is bothering you and has almost caught you by surprise; unexpected news from day to day, a new sudden event that physically or emotionally shook you

Shape 

Double: Two things that were generated consequentially or have a common link, two entities/people united by a common theme

Super-thin line: Something you felt or suspected but never had proof of evidence about, a subtle suspicion, a doubt, an insinuation; a sneaky or secretive individual

Regular: Something/someone that you accept and is part of your routine, your own mindset, something very close and not disturbing; a solid milestone in your daily life

Round: One thing in particular that constantly “fills you up”, makes you feel complete, full, exploding or either extremely delighted; a person who represses/suppresses you, someone ghosting you on purpose just to humble you or to make you feel lesser

Behavior

Steady: things are happening in the background, far from the “public eye” and without you even realizing; you - and people around you- are calm, clueless, peaceful and the surroundings seem safe; good vibes are in the air but definitely keep your eyes open and intuition awake

Shaky, wiggly: things are visibly happening before your eyes, making you confused, uneasy or giving you mood swings; anxiety; you are able to feel bad vibes around you: take control of the situation and protect yourself Weak, petite & almost extinguished: matter/person X is now annihilating you before the eyes of everybody, but still no one defends you; seek help in others, protect yourself and take action to win this ripe, suffered battle

Directions

EAST: AIR - communication, mindset, mental/spoken/written things, logical reasoning, ideas, plans, spring, morning, sunrise, masculine… WEST: WATER - emotions, unconscious, gut feelings, passivity, illogical reasoning, intangibility, blue, flow, moisture, fall, sunset, feminine… SOUTH: FIRE - action, guidance, strength, activity, blood, warmth, creativity, masculine, red, impulse, summer, noon… NORTH: EARTH - stability, firmness, art, finance, grounding, material things, tangibility, stillness, death, birth, winter, midnight, green… (+ ALL YOUR PERSONAL KNOWLEDGE about the elements and how they can be interpreted, what meanings they have in our lives and their specific correspondences) 

Smoke

Absence: you are the source of awareness: your body and soul have sent you signals about matter X and you had an inner awakening which led you to this reading 

Presence: someone else enlightened you with their words and made you fully aware of matter X; something popped up as an obvious proof that you weren’t expecting to find: this has awakened your inquisitive mind and led it to this reading. 

Hopefully you’ll get inspired by this post and learn something useful to spice up your divination practice:) I thank you so much for reading, xox msmoonfire

Diy Scrying Ball

I’ve been waiting since last Christmas for my local Dollar Tree to stock the diy snow globes so I could put my master plan into action. The time has finally come!

Last year I created this:

Now I’m gonna step it up a notch and create this:

Lets go!

Materials:

Diy Globe kit

Sparkle glue or Sparkles and Veg Glycerin

Waterproof LED Tea lights

(not pictured)

a drill

a hot glue gun

food coloring

rubbing alcohol or hand sanitizer

Bowl

something to stir with

Instructions

so you’re gonna separate the kit into all its parts and then drill a hole into the lid smaller than the bulb of the tealight.

Slowly push the bulb through the hole to open it up, then take it out, hot-glue the area around the bulb then slide it back in, once its in give it a thin layer of hot glue over where the bulb protrudes. Test that the light still works and will fit into the base without issue.

move to a sink, place the globe into a bowl and add some water and color (best to mix the food coloring in water then add to globe)

add in your alcohol, glitter and glycerin (or glitter glue), then top it off with water put back on the bottom.

That’s it!

Happy Scrying

Storing and Hiding Moon Water

Moon Water should generally be kept out of direct light, and I’ve found there are lots of ways to do this even if you are living in tight spaces or keeping your craft hidden, here are some ideas I’ve had and/or tried, I hope they help! Dark Storage Ideas: 

☽ In cabinets, drawers, bedside tables, under ones bed, under the sink, anywhere practical and out of the way

☽ Pouring into a dark, opaque bottle.

☽ Covering your bottle or container with cloth or otherwise wrapping it. Could be done decoratively or with ritual as well.

☽ Create a dark curtain over one shelf on a case or cabinet by hanging some cloth over it, you can pin it with books on the shelf above or otherwise, creating a nice little dark space if you’re out of room in more practical dark areas.  

Hiding Moon Water (And Other Liquids)

☽ Distilled or otherwise clear water can be hidden more easily; water bottles stored in a bag or closet wouldn’t usually seem odd, however, make sure the water is safe to drink before storing it in a manner when you or a room mate/family member might pick it up to drink by mistake. 

☽ Store it in a dark or opaque spray bottle; “for plants” or “keeping the cat from scratching the furniture” and it’s already perfect for if you intend on using the water for cleansing an object, room, or watering your plants, or other spritzing activities.

☽ Clean and cleanse an empty, opaque bottle of any kind; a shampoo bottle, a old food container, a hand soap dispenser.

☽ Use tiny bottles; (you can usually find some at dollar and craft stores) they can be places anywhere out of sight, behind books on a shelf, in the corner of your cabinets, inside the rim of plant pots, jewelry boxes, inside other containers.

☽ Other tiny containers like former makeup bottles, small plastic containers, vials, anything hollowed and seal able, use your imagination! 

☽ Use a large pencil case, old makeup bag or shoe box to store medium and small bottles in plain sight. 

*Just be careful in all cases that if corks or lids may leak, to secure the containers in an upright position to keep them from spilling, loosing your moon water and ruining other belongings. 

 *Careful not to leave lingering soap or other debris behind in the bottle that might pollute spells or cleansing, harm plants, or you, if you plan on drinking the water. Do not store drinking water in something that has carried a toxic substance, just be safe.

*When hiding moon water, remember to try and keep in a dim or dark place if not in a opaque bottle

As a sorta long note of caution (sorry)If there’s a chance your water might be discovered by a parent or other person who would react badly or even dangerously to this sort of activity for some reason; be absolutely certain to have an excuse that holds up, or find a safer way to carry out your practice. Moon water is most often obtained on the full moon, but different phases also give different energy, so you aren’t confined to that one night (A mistake I made much earlier on was trying to collect all my moon water for the month during the full moon.) It can be as simple as leaving a plastic bottle on your windowsill at night to carry around with you the next day for use if long term storage isn’t practical or a good idea for you. Witchcraft is a craft of necessity; sometimes it feels uncomfortable to lack all the “proper” tools and rituals, but remember the strength is in your intention and wit, do what you have to based on your circumstances; your practice is just as valid.

These are all I have for now, but feel free to add any ideas you might have in comments or reblogging!
