Protective affirmations

DO NOT steal or reword. ©daarlingdatura Note: These affirmations are going to work best if you are someone who actively does shadow work & does not function with the mentioned behaviors in these affirmations. ‎‎‎‎‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ╔═══*.·:·.☽✧ ✦ ✧☾.·:·.*═══╗ I am divinely protected, & all those who seek to weaponize their jealousy, anguish, hatred, delusion, insecurity, pettiness, & negativity against me fail. May they be brought to their knees by their intentions & cleared of these projections so they can align with their ultimate healing path. May the cycles end here. No intentions, opinions, manifestations, or thoughts of others affect my outcome. My outcome is sacred to me. Only my thoughts dictate my reality. Others do not have a say on my reality. I am divinely protected, tongues who move to speak against me are bound by their words of negativity. May they swallow their own poison, may their lies and manipulations work against them. May clarity strike them, so they may see the truth. ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎╚═══*.·:·.☽✧ ✦ ✧☾.·:·.*═══╝

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎╔═══*.·:·.☽✧ ✦ ✧☾.·:·.*═══╗ I am grounded, I think clearly and move gracefully with tact. All attempts to throw me off of my path are reflected back to the sender. I am free from the influence of others. My energy is protected, I call into place shields that block out the emotions, projections, and ill intent weaponized by others to harm me. I call now upon the element of air to cut through confusion, distortion, delusion, and chaos. May those who attempt to cut through these shields find themselves confused, and unable to cut through. This shield serves to protect me from deception, manipulation, and psychic projections sent by all lifeforms. I call upon the element of fire, to burn away all unwanted energetic cords and parasitic tendrils. I ask the fire to endow me with passion, fuel, and courage. To burn away those who would seek to harm me. To blind them, and melt away their attempts of harm. I call now upon the element of water, to cleanse and clear away all emotional blockages. To drown those who attempt to break through my shields in their own intentions. To protect me from outside influences, and keep me in tune with my own emotions. I call upon the element of earth to surround and ground me. To ward away all people who intend to harm me, to serve as a shield from those who seek to create chaos within my life. I ask that this shield also protect me from parasites, both human and spiritual. I call lastly upon the element of ether, to weave these shields together so they may work in perfect harmony. ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎╚═══*.·:·.☽✧ ✦ ✧☾.·:·.*═══╝

Hekate's Deipnon

Hekate's Deipnon is a celebration of the end of the month in honour of Hekate. It's the first day of the three-day transition from month to month.

The festival is used to appease Hekate and ask her for her blessing for the next month. You clean your house and make sure to get a good start into the new month!!

When we observe the Deipnon:

The deipnon was observed on the last day of the Hellenic month, so during the dark moon. But the hellenic day starts at sundown the day before. So on the it'd be from evening of the 28th day to the evening of the 29th (the last) day. But I just celebrate the Deipnon on the last day of our modern calender, since its easier for me and also makes more sense in my opinion. It's up to you really!

Things you can do on the Deipnon:

Clean your home and altars

Get rid of old libtations/food offerings you left in the open

Purification of the home and mind

Finish all projects, tie loose ends, pay off any debts you may have

Do a ritual in honor of Hekate (light a candle, recite a hymn)

Pour a libtation in her honour or offer her food if you can (typical offerings are egg, cakes, bread, garlic, leek)

These are just the things that I do!! Do what feels right!

Note: Hekate is a chthonic goddess, don't eat any food you offer her! Bury it or leave it on a crossroad

So to recap, the Deipnon is a festival to close the month. You leave offerings and honour Hekate, through cleaning your house and leaving everything unpleasant behind.

Book Review: Circle For Hekate

D’Este, Sorita. Circle for Hekate: Volume I: History and Mythology, Avalonia, 2017.

(Late last year, Sorita contacted me and told me she was sending me this book, because she’d used my Epithets project in this book. She didn’t ask me to do a review, but it feels like the right thing to do nonetheless.)

It probably won’t surprise any of you that I have imagined writing a book on Hekate. Sorita beat me to it, for all intents and purposes. She provides a clear account of what we know about Hekate, Her cult sites, stories, and symbolism. Here we find a trove of information, and though I sometimes find Sorita’s conclusions and associations slightly strained, I know I will be returning to this book time and time again. It is an honor to have the original page for Hekate’s Many Names referenced in such a resource (though the project has since moved to tumblr and grown beyond the link listed on page 55.)

For those of us who strive to honor Hekate in a way that both remains rooted in the vast history of the Titaness and dovetails with life as it exists now, books like this one offer a clear-eyed look at the history of, and meanings we can derive, from Hekate’s history and majesty.

Have I told y’all about my husband’s Fork Theory? If I did already, pretend I didn’t, I’m an old.

So the Spoon Theory is a fundamental metaphor used often in the chronic pain/chronic illness communities to explain to non-spoonies why life is harder for them. It’s super useful and we use that all the time. But it has a corollary. You know the phrase, “Stick a fork in me, I’m done,” right? Well, Fork Theory is that one has a Fork Limit, that is, you can probably cope okay with one fork stuck in you, maybe two or three, but at some point you will lose your shit if one more fork happens. A fork could range from being hungry or having to pee to getting a new bill or a new diagnosis of illness. There are lots of different sizes of forks, and volume vs. quantity means that the fork limit is not absolute. I might be able to deal with 20 tiny little escargot fork annoyances, such as a hangnail or slightly suboptimal pants, but not even one “you poked my trigger on purpose because you think it’s fun to see me melt down” pitchfork.

This is super relevant for neurodivergent folk. Like, you might be able to deal with your feet being cold or a tag, but not both. Hubby describes the situation as “It may seem weird that I just get up and leave the conversation to go to the bathroom, but you just dumped a new financial burden on me and I already had to pee, and going to the bathroom is the fork I can get rid of the fastest.”

cipheramnesia

I like this and also I like the low key point that you may be able to cope with bigger forks by finding little ones you can remove quickly. A combination of time, focus, and reduction to small stressors that can allow you to focus on the larger stressor in a constructive way.
