As someone with psychosis, I am begging everyone to stop saying spiritual psychosis. I don't know why there needs to be an extra label and fancy further step, and I'm not going to lie, it reeks of both ableism and many other things. You're policing religions that a) don't fit into your experiences or flavor of it, and b) policing personal experiences that for the most part usually are harmless and positive for the person with psychosis. It just sounds like another scare tactic to go around warning people about it and stoking flames for experiences that usually boil down to examples like: I'm medicated and even mentally because of it and Athene noticed I was starting to spiral mentally and told me to breathe and that helped me a lot in the moment.

I get it, sometimes it can be bad! Sometimes it can be negative and harmful if it's undiagnosed/left alone and the person doesn't have medication or medical help from professionals, but please!!! stop calling it spiritual psychosis, it's simply psychosis. You're flaming both the mentally ill/disabled and religions that have a different cutout than yours does. In the end, you're just fearmongering experiences that you don't know about and I'm tired of the rebranded hate and fear directed at those that live with this on the daily.

Hermes is going to the park to go on the swings

Apollo is the music you listen to through your headphones while you try reach the sun on the swings

Hermes is knowing some adults might look at you and think “what the hell are they doing arent they a little too old?”

Apollo is in the way you know your doing this for the kids and the statement of “sure i might be old but im doing what makes me happy.” And in a silent plea for the kids to go live their lives to the full.

Hermes is hopping off the swing dizzy and fulfilled

Apollo is still having enough energy to walk 4000k steps

Hanging out with apollo and hermes while doing things you wished while you were a kid is extremely fun

WIP. Shining Apollon. This is based off of some artwork that I no longer can locate. Just a study.

What is your witchy hot take?

Rules for this post:

Give the benefit of the doubt. If it seems like a blanket statement, it probably isn't, it's probably just based on that person's experience or belief system. Also don't turn it into some weird bigoted stuff or you get blocked.

MY witchy hot take is that I think tarot decks you choose personally match your energy better than those gifted to you.

How are you gunna know if you vibe with it if you've never messed with it before? I vibe with the one's I've been gifted, of course, but not as much as those that I choose myself.

I don't believe that shadow work is something that should be practiced by people without the guidance of a mental health professional, at the very least. Shadow work was invented originally by psychologist Carl Jung, not a witch, and was meant to confront the Shadow Self - the less than ideal parts of ourselves that we like to hide from the public eye. It was meant to be a part of the therapeutic process. When not handled with the aid of professional therapy, shadow work presents the risk of retraumatizing oneself in those affected by trauma as well as reopening intense wounds in general. You have to do some hardcore reflection that is made significantly easier with professional help. It gets pretty damn intense. I genuinely believe that, for the mental and emotional well-being of yourself and others, you should refrain from unassisted shadow work.

(Also, I agree with your tarot hot take lol)

This last reply yes I was forced to do shadow work by some fellow witches and that along with their manipulation and other suck I’m severely traumatized so much there’s a deity I want nothing to do with anymore really I respect her but I can handle it rn (there’s actually 2 deities but still)

i have interacted with Apollo with “Homie/Bruh, what? the fuck?”

he laughed.

I also call Apollo my dad.

He loves it.

——

My first or second conversation with Hermes, I called him Whoremes because we were literally just fucking with each other. He knew I was in a spicy mood that day and still chose to push my buttons!

He Laughed at his new nickname. I still use it to this day.

——

Poseidon is not a God I know well or am familiar with but I had a friend call him Water Daddy to his face.

He laughed!

——

Dionysus has a dedicated emoji just for him: 🕺

As well as him just being “A homie”

He loves it.

My point is, the Gods have a sense of humor. They know when you’re playing or teasing. If they don’t want that type of thing from someone, THEY will set those boundaries. Along with YOU having the ability to set boundaries with them. It’s not anyone else’s job to tell you how you can or should interact with Them. It’s no one’s business! Everyone’s practice is unique and special.

I worship the Greek Pantheon.

I know that lightning happens when there are more electrons in the clouds then there are protons on the ground and that it strikes randomly. I can still believe that Zeus guides it down on its way from the sky.

I know that earthquakes happen due to the shifting teutonic plates grinding against each other. I can still that Poseidon shapes where and how they strike.

I know that the moon and sun rise and set because of the earth's rotation. I can still believe that Helios and Selene are the Moon and Sun and that Apollo and Artemis guide them.

I can know the science and reasons behind how the world and humans work, but I can still believe that the gods and goddesses hold sway over the earth just like the modern religions can. Just because my religion is older and worships more gods and goddesses does not mean that it is less valid.

Temple of Helios/Apollon on the Rhodos Acropolis

The purpose of these stairs is to show the devotee the beautiful sunrise all over again. As you can see, you cannot see the temple until the very top. There used to be a statue of Helios at the top. This is one of my favorite temples ever.
