✨🌙 An introduction 🌙 ✨

Hi, you can call me Lemonade or Lemon. I’m a Virgo sun, Pisces moon, and Gemini rising. | ♍️☀️ | ♓️🌕 | ♊️⬆️ |

I recently made this blog for sharing witchy, pagan, and earthy, autumn vibes.

I’m beginning my journey into becoming pagan and I’m seeking new witchy and/or pagan friends.

I’m an eclectic pagan, incorporating Greek and Norse mythologies and pantheons.

I’ve been studying tarot and would love to meet new tarot study buddies!! 📚

I've started creating PAC tarot readings, see this post for links to each. I’m also offering free 1-3 card readings in exchange for constructive feedback. 🔮 See this post for how to request a reading.

I tag my readings with that lemonade witch tarot, lemonade witch asks, or that lemonade witch tarot asks

🌙✨Asks and submissions are open ✨🌙

worship evolves with time. yes, the people who worshipped the gods back in the day had specific offerings to be given. but what is stopping you from giving modern offerings? things around your house? offerings shouldn't have to cost you a fortune. your deities aren't holding you at gunpoint to only receive what you can't easily get. they are a means of showing your love in your day-to-day. so yes!! give your deities candy bars! show them a silly little doodle of them in the corner of your notebook!! make a spotify playlist and play it for them!! dedicate a journal to them!! make a pinterest board and fill it with pins that remind you of them!! the important aspect of these offerings is that you are thinking about your deities. thinking about them and feeling love and devotion to them is a means of offering! you are devoting your energy in these acts!!

Pagans who collect rocks they find on the ground.

Pagans who buy crystals because it makes them happy.

Pagans who have to declutter a space every time they want to make an altar.

Pagans who lose track of time sitting in front of their carefully crafted altar.

Pagans who live in the northern hemisphere trying to sort through mainstream holidays to find what’s left of theirs.

Pagans who live in the southern hemisphere and struggle to celebrate seasonal holidays and feel out of synch with their community they do.

Pagans who talk to the moon about their day.

Pagans who look into the eyes of their loved ones and find traces of divinity.

Pagans who revel in the freedom of their practice.

Pagans who worry if they’re doing something wrong.

Pagans (I love y’all so much and I’m grateful for every one of you)

Have a wonderful equinox to those still celebrating it! Blessed Be

EDIT: Mercury is stationed direct on Jan 1st, 2024. The source I used which stated it was in retrograde until the 18th had a typo.

EDIT: Fixed the zodiac signs for the full moons using a new source.

The Eternal Refrain™️

[undeadmagick]

i find it fascinating how my perception of the gods have changed once i met them. both in looks and personality.

Freyja, related to beauty, love and lust, i believed would look young and very feminine. Yet, when presented with her, she was a gorgeous, mature woman with lines at her eyes and a towering figure. The realization that a goddess I acknowledge as being so gorgeous had wrinkles and strong facial features made me reconsider my own perceived “flaws” and standards of beauty. She was beautiful in her strength and wisdom and yet also in her divinity and confidence. I had forgotten a woman of extreme beauty was also a goddess of war. And in both being true, I found her to be the most powerful woman I know.

Seeing Hades, I believed he would be fearsome and cold. Yet, when I looked into his eyes, there was warmth. He had an appearance of a man in his 40s with long hair, the color of the night, and he had no resentment or even disdain. Only softness. I didn’t fear him nor did he try to have me do so. He was safe as he led me through the courtyard where we met. Where I thought he would be an imposing and cold-hearted figure, I found someone with such patience like a father-figure would have.

Apollo, whom I thought would be bubbly and funny from how I’ve seen others described him was indescribably elegant. He carried himself well. He was kind and patient. Where I thought I would find youthful naivety, I found charm and elegance. And he only asked to help me in my healing. Even when I thought I did not need him, he waited patiently until I could hear him properly. And no matter how long it took, he was still welcoming with a smile.

I truly believe everyone should have the opportunity of meeting their deities and finding how they appear to them. What they show themselves as is what you may need. I find it fascinating to see how others see them :) They love us very much.

A fun witch exercise I like to do is to look at different items and figure out how they could be used in a working.

[grotesque-grimoire]

I'm almost tempted to make a Chopped-like game where I give a witch a basket of random shit and see what they come up with.

[windvexer]

I'm not familiar with the Chopped thing but this is a super fun discord game to play!

[m0urning-ang3l]

me: sorry about my cat, i feel like she’s always invading your space

Freyja: that’s quite alright, i love having her around. you should let her in your room more often

me: even if your altar gets messed up?

Freyja: even if my altar gets messed up
