VesperJae

My blog for all things magick. I am a practitioner of dragon magick, water magick, and I also have started to follow the path of Hekate, Hades, and Persephone. In other words I am an eclectic witch.Though here and there I will throw up some stuff from my favorite things like anime, otome games, and favorite movies etc.

[ravensrunemarket-deactivated202]

🌙🔥 Hekate 🌙🔥

Hekate is one of the most fascinating and widely honoured deities in modern witchcraft. Ancient yet ever-present, she walks the borders of the world — between life and death, light and shadow, seen and unseen. She is the torchbearer who illuminates the path forward when everything feels uncertain.

Her magic is ancient. Her wisdom is sharp. Her presence is protective, guiding, and deeply transformative.

Let’s explore her lore, her allies, and the way her energy appears in storytelling and modern witchcraft.

🗝️Gods She Works With (Allies & Associations)🗝️

While Hekate stands in her own power, she frequently appears alongside or connected to other deities in myth and modern devotional practice.

✨ Persephone Hekate is Persephone’s guide and protector in the Underworld. She accompanies her during the descent and ascent — representing safe passage, rebirth, and the wisdom of shadow. ✨ Demeter During the myth of Persephone’s abduction, Hekate aids Demeter by lighting her path and helping her search. She acts as a bridge between mother and daughter. ✨ Hermes Both are psychopomps — guides of souls. They are often paired in magic involving thresholds, travel, spirit communication, and guidance. ✨ Artemis Both goddesses share liminal, wild, protective energy. They are connected through maidens, animals, and night-wandering. ✨ Nyx (sometimes) As the primordial night, Nyx is occasionally associated with Hekate’s darker, star-lit aspects, though they are not interchangeable. ✨ Selene or the Moon While Hekate is not a lunar goddess by herself, she is strongly associated with night magic and the moon’s guiding light.

How Hekate’s Energy Shows Up in Witchcraft

Witches often experience her energy during moments of:

transition (moving house, new job, endings, rebirths)

shadow work

spirit communication

needing clarity

feeling pulled toward moonlit or night magic

feeling watched over during difficult times

Her presence is usually described as:

steady

intelligent

protective

boundary-setting

comforting in darkness

She is not soft in a fragile way — she is soft in a fierce, guiding, torch-in-the-night way.

Examples of Her Work (Modern Witchcraft Interpretations)

These are common ways witches feel her influence in their practice:

🗝️ 1. Guidance at Crossroads If you’re stuck, lost, or uncertain, Hekate’s energy often appears as clarity, instinct, or a subtle push toward a choice. 🐕 2. Protection (especially spiritual) Many witches feel her presence when they need shielding from negative energy or during spirit work. 🌕 3. Illumination in the Dark She helps reveal truth — even the truths we hide from ourselves. 🌿 4. Herbal & rootwork magic Hekate is connected with herbs like: garlic yew mugwort mandrake lavender Witches working with herbal magic often feel drawn to her. 👁️ 5. Divination & intuition She is associated with liminal awareness — tarot, scrying, dreamwork, pathfinding. 🔥 6. Personal transformation Many devotees say she arrives when a chapter is ending and something new must begin.

[vesperjae]

Like with Ares, I did one for Athena too. As before, image edited by me but made by bing ai image generator, I use ai for self expression that is all.

Music lyrics I wrote but chatgpt put in lyric format for me, no lyrics were adjusted or changed by the bot, it added the Greek for me and organized the lyric.

[VERSE 1 – VESPER]

No motivation… I stare at the ceiling,

Rain tracing rivers down the window glass.

My thoughts are heavy, my soul feels dim,

Everything quiet, everything distant—

Until I sense it…

A soft radiance like footsteps made of light.

(GREEK CHANTERS, soft and angelic: Ἀνάστα… Ἀνάστα…)

(“Anásta… Anásta…”)

[ATHENA ENTRY – ATHENA]

A gentle, celestial voice fills the room—

“Rise, child.”

(CHANTERS: ἈΝΑΣΤΑ… ἈΝΑΣΤΑ…)

ATHENA:

“Do not drift into the shadows of your mind.

Remember the path you’ve walked,

the strength you have cultivated,

the wisdom you’ve earned.

Do not think your journey ends on this bed of doubt.

No, my Vesper…

Rise.”

(CHANTERS: ἈΝΑΣΤΑ! softly, like prayer)

[PRE-CHORUS – Athena Speaks, Vesper Echoes]

ATHENA:

Your knees tremble—

VESPER (quiet echo):

They tremble…

ATHENA:

But trembling is not failure.

Your heart has learned fire,

your mind has endured storms.

Let your light return.

Let yourself rise gently.

(CHANTERS: Στήθι… Μάχε…)

(“Stēthi… Máche…” – “Stand… Fight…” but whispered, sacred)

[VERSE 2 – DUET]

VESPER:

Athena… everything feels too heavy.

ATHENA:

Then let me share the weight.

You are not alone.

(CHANTERS: Θάρσει… / “Thársei…” — “Take courage…”)

ATHENA:

“Do not surrender to the noise within.

I feel the battle in your thoughts,

the ache in your spirit—

But hear me, Vesper:

You are capable.

You are resilient.

You can rise.”

(CHANTERS: Ἀνάστα… softly)

VESPER:

Every breath hurts… I’m tired of fighting myself.

ATHENA:

“And still you breathe.

Still you stand.

Still you are here.”

(CHANTERS: Ζῆθι… “Zēthi…” – “Live… Endure…”)

[CHORUS – VESPER leads, ATHENA supports]

VESPER:

I will rise, Lady Athena—

I will face my mind.

It tries to drown me, but I’ll hold on.

It whispers I am lesser,

but I will not bow to that lie.

My soul is tired…

Yet I rise.

(CHANTERS: ἈΝΑΣΤΑ! Νίκα! softly / “Rise! Conquer!”)

ATHENA (warmly behind her):

Rise, Vesper.

Rise in wisdom.

Rise in light.

[VERSE 3 – ATHENA]

Athena’s palm rests gently on Vesper’s cheek,

like moonlight softening a storm.

ATHENA:

“Vesper… my beloved Warrior of the Mind.

You who battle in silence.

You who endure unseen wars.

Do not let others define you.

Do not let doubt carve your name.

Stand tall in your truth.

Move forward with grace.

Your worth is not fragile—

it is forged.”

(CHANTERS: Πρόβηθι… / “Próvethi…” — “Advance…”)

She raises Vesper’s chin so their eyes meet.

“Remember who you are.

The storms in your mind are not your master.

Your strength is deeper than your sorrow,

your wisdom brighter than your fear.

Walk forward, Vesper.

And if you falter…

I will guide your steps.”

(CHANTERS: Θάρσει… Νίκα… / “Take courage… Conquer…”)

[BRIDGE – DUET]

VESPER:

My thoughts roar… but your voice cuts through them.

ATHENA:

Because wisdom speaks even in chaos.

VESPER:

I feel something…

A spark returning.

ATHENA:

Then let it grow.

Let it guide you.

Let it become your armor.

(CHANTERS rise gently: ἈΝΑΣΤΑ— ἈΝΑΣΤΑ—)

[FINAL CHORUS – BOTH]

VESPER:

I will rise, Lady Athena—

I will fight with clarity.

I will not forget my worth.

My mind’s war will not claim me.

Though I tremble, I endure.

I will rise.

I will keep walking.

I will keep shining.

ATHENA (a divine echo):

Rise in wisdom.

Rise in grace.

Rise in truth.

Rise, Warrior of the Mind.

BOTH:

I will rise.

(CHANTERS, full temple choir: ἈΝΑΣΤΑ! Νίκα! Μάχε!)

(Fade: Θάρσει… Θάρσει…)

[vesperjae]

Too often I see people only see Ares for war, so I got this idea in my head, made it into a few ai songs that I fell in love with but will share the lyrics with you.

Used chatgpt to organize the lyric I wrote into lyric form and to add the greek so hope it translated it right, the lyrics I came up with myself; art is by bing ai image generator but I edited it, the female is based on my persona with one of the many looks i like to give her.

🔥 ARES — “RISE” (Ancient Greek Battle-Chant Version)

VERSE 1

No motivation… she stares at the ceiling,

Rain splattering against the window glass.

Her chest too heavy, her mind shut down,

Her world a muted, colorless haze—

Until she felt it…

A tremor like footsteps echoing through her soul.

(CHANTERS WHISPER: Ἀνάστα… Ἀνάστα… / “Anásta… Anásta…”)

ARES ENTRY

A voice like thunder tears the silence—

“RISE.”

(BATTLE CHANT: ἈΝΑΣΤΑ! ἈΝΑΣΤΑ! ἈΝΑΣΤΑ!)

She jolts upright at the command.

“Remember yourself.

Remember how far you’ve come.

Will it all be for nothing?

Is this how you will spend your days—

Lying beneath a ceiling?

NO.

Now RISE.”

(CHANTERS: ἈΝΑΣΤΑ! ἈΝΑΣΤΑ! / ANÁSTA! ANÁSTA!)

PRE-CHORUS

Your knees—they shake.

But your heart has burned before.

It has yearned to keep going.

Remember your fire.

Stand. Fight for your own name.

Do not give in.

Do not become complacent.

(CHANTERS: ΣΤΉΘΙ! ΜΆΧΕ! / STĒTHI! MÁCHE!)

(FOLLOW-UP: ΘΆΡΣΕΙ! / THÁRSEI!)

VERSE 2

She looks at Ares—shocked, breathless—

But he does not soften.

He forces her to her feet.

“You are better than this.

Do not lose to your mind.

I see the thoughts that battle your heart—

Do not give in.

Do not give up.

RISE.”

(CHANT: ἈΝΑΣΤΑ! ἈΝΑΣΤΑ!)

“Every wound, every ache means you are alive—

It means you survived.”

(CHANT: ΖῆΘΙ! ΖῆΘΙ! / ZĒTHI! ZĒTHI!)

CHORUS (Vesper)

“I will stand, Lord Ares—

I will fight my mind.

It tears me down, but I’ll push on.

It tells me I’m worthless, unworthy,

But I will not bow to the storm inside.

My soul is weary—

Yet still, I rise.”

(FULL CHANTERS: ἈΝΑΣΤΑ! ΝΊΚΑ! / ANÁSTA! NÍKA!)

(OVERCHANT: ΜΆΧΕ! / MÁCHE!)

VERSE 3 (Ares)

Ares places a hand on her shoulder.

His voice becomes a sharpened shield.

“Vesper, you are so much more.

Do not let them define your worth.

Do not bend.

Do not break.

Defend yourself.

Stand tall.

Show them they cannot silence you.

Rise and push forward.”

(CHANTERS: ΠΡΌΒΗΘΙ! ΠΡΌΒΗΘΙ! / PRÓVETHI! PRÓVETHI!)

(FOLLOW: ΣΤΉΘΙ! / STĒTHI!)

He lifts her chin so her eyes meet his.

“Remember who you are.

Do not lose yourself in the battlefield of the mind.

You are worth more than you know—

Stronger than you think.

Do not back down.

Walk forward.

If you stumble, I will push you up again.”

(CHANTERS: ΘΆΡΣΕΙ! ΝΊΚΑ! / THÁRSEI! NÍKA!)

FINAL CHORUS (Vesper)

“I will rise, Lord Ares—

I will fight.

I will not forget my worth.

My mind’s battle will not devour me.

Though my spirit trembles, I endure.

I will rise up.

I will push through.

But I ask for your guidance—

Your fire,

Your courage,

Your relentless voice.

AND I WILL RISE!”

(FULL ARMY CHANT: ἈΝΑΣΤΑ! ΝΊΚΑ! ΜΆΧΕ! / ANÁSTA! NÍKA! MÁCHE!)

(ECHO: ΘΆΡΣΕΙ! ΘΆΡΣΕΙ!)

[fox-bright]

This meme is a MURDER ATTEMPT.

I am absolutely fucking serious. The original meme, without the big red denial, is someone's attempt to fucking kill people.

There is NO SAFE DOSAGE of pennyroyal oil. Even Mother Earth News says there's no reason to use pennyroyal essential oil for ANYTHING, even topically or as a fragrance, for fuckssake! That should give you some idea about how dangerous it is!

Pennyroyal tea, plant matter in hot water, is a traditional abortifacient. It is *incredibly* dangerous, induces abortion by bringing the body close to organ failure (and frequently pushing the system right over the edge, because dosage is impossible to meter), but I would drink a gallon of it before I took a half-teaspoon of pennyroyal essential oil.

Two teaspoons, taken across 48 hours, has successfully killed someone.

Three teaspoons taken as a single dosage killed the consumer within THREE HOURS.

There is NO SAFE DOSAGE! FOR PENNYROYAL OIL INTERNALLY! NONE!

The person who made this meme is PURPOSEFULLY, ACTIVELY, trying to get desperate people killed!

[fuckingconversations]

Pennyroyal oil contains pulegone, which is highly toxic, particularly to the liver. Ingestion can lead initially to gastrointestinal distress such as nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain. Later on, it can lead to failure of the liver and kidneys, resulting in bleeding, seizures, multiple organ failure, and death.

There is no antidote for pennyroyal oil poisoning.

- straight from poison control

[theunknownpoetssociety]

Aphrodite who cries for the people who hurt themselves because self love is love too

Artemis who doesn’t hunt animals anymore (humans do it enough) She now walks in clubs looking to hunt the real animal

Athena who donates hundreds of books to local libraries and schools

Apollo who watches all street musicians hoping their talents can get them a little money (He gives more than a little)

Dionysus who watches over everyone’s drinks at the bar making sure they stay safe

Zeus who makes it rain for the couples that just want to frolic and dance and kiss in the rain

Hera who donates to woman’s and SA survivors shelters

Ares who is at the forefront of every protest because those are battles too

Hestia who holds and keeps thousands of secrets so the ones who whispered them into flame don’t have to

Hades who let’s families get one last goodbye to a loved one before they die

Persephone who personally makes sure that the ones taken too early feel safe and secure in the Underworld

Demeter who gives Her best crops to food banks and homeless shelters

Hecate who is a street magician and does actual magical for the kids

Poseidon who finds the best seashells and leaves them on the beach for someone to find and treasure

the Gods aren’t gone they ARE the little things in life

[jezzzebel]

Hey *hand on shoulder* you know that Greece, along with most of the balkan countries, has been under ottoman turkish rule for more than 400 years? You know that Greece today has many economic problems today, despite it's history being rich?

You know that Greece is very prone to forest fires and natural disasters?

Also, do you know that Greece, along with Serbia, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, as well as Montenegro... They are all protesting against corruption, and no one talked about it.

You talk about wanting to have temples to worship in modern day, but you don't care about the land that those temples would be built on?

Greece may be an Orthodox Christian country. But trust me, the gods are still very much living there. Their spirit is still there. Poseidon is still ruling the waves, Zeus is still watching over in the sky, Demeter is taking care of the crops.

All i am asking is... Spread awareness. I am saying this on behalf of my greek friend, firstly, who has complained to me about their issues not being heard. LEARN HISTORY. STUDY CURRENT WORLD EVENTS. SEND LOVE TO THE LAND OF GREECE, WHO HAS ENDURED GREAT HARDSHIPS.

Friendly Reminder that the religion is called Hellenic Polytheism and you are a Hellenic Polytheist.

It is not Hellenism, Hellenismos, Hellenistic Polytheism and you are not a Hellenist or Hellenic.

[the-purvashadha]

When you step into sunlight, you honor Apollo. When you admire the moon, you honor Artemis. When you admire cloud shapes, you honor Hera. When you smell petrichor, you honor Zeus. When you laugh at a joke, you honor Hermes. When your body twitches to dance at a particularly upbeat music, you honor Dinoysus. When you enjoy the first bite of your breakfast, you honor Demeter. When you choose your peace over any conflict, you honor Athena. When you warm yourself up by sheltering yourself in blanket, you honor Hestia. When you listen to Ocean sounds, you honor Poseidon. When you smell flowers, you honor Persephone. When you admire the coolness of first day of Autumn, you honor Hades. When you wear your favourite jewellery, you honor Hephaestus. When you smile, you honor Aphrodite. When you exercise, you honor Ares. When you light a torch in a dark room, you honor Hekate.

Your body is a shrine to Gods, your being an act of devotion for them. You, by yourself, are enough for them.

[olympian-meditations]

Aphrodite loves trans people!

She thinks you deserve to be loved!

Aphrodite loves trans bodies!

She wants you to love yours too!

Aphrodite blesses trans people with endless beauty!

She wants you to feel as beautiful as you are!

[cultkinkcoven]

Let yourself be cringe in your worship!!!

The Gods don’t find you embarrassing. The Gods don’t care about seeming cool and professional for the approval of others.

Make that fucking aesthetic photo collage for Aphrodite with cute pics you found on Pinterest .

Dress up like Hermes and go for a damn walk.

Collect random stones you think are cool and put them on your altar.

Put that photo of that cartoon character that reminds you of your deity on your altar.

Make that Minecraft temple to Hekate, domesticate those damn Minecraft wolves for Cerberus.

Make your deities in the sims!

Write soppy melodramatic poetry for Dionysus that no one else will read.

Make self insert fanfics about your favourite Gods and write them all as your best friends. Let them interact with your edgy ocs.

Create an AU where you and your Gods are all characters from your favourite anime.

Record silly little songs for them

Make them paintings that are full of clashing colors and weird forms.

Draw them a fursona

Wear that bright yellow outfit for Apollon.

Put on a dramatic makeup look for Aphrodite.

Call your closest deity that silly little nickname you have for them and let them call you one too.

Share your special interests with your Gods. Design your God as a pokémon or a crystal gem, or a sonic character.

Those losers that try to make you feel bad for being passionate will never have what you have.

In the words of the Great Lord Hermes: “Every human I have ever liked was at least a little bit cringe”

BE CRINGE. BE PROUD. THE GODS LOVE YOU.

SimsFinds (formerly SimsDom)

If you are visiting via SimsFinds: I want anyone visiting my Tumblr from the SimsFinds website to know that most of the creators you see linked there never gave their permission for a link to their CC to be put behind ads or timers, including myself.

Awhile back someone sent me an Ask, letting me know that some of my CC was linked on this site. While I was aware of it, at the time it was only a handful of my posts. Recently they have been adding a ton of links to my CC posts, all behind their stupid timers, and due to their past behavior I am saying something about this. Not to mention their site still looks like one of those potential virus minefield disasters that you tell your mother not to visit.

I want everyone to know that there are many CC finds blogs right here on Tumblr. You don’t need to use that site to find all of the fun CC you’re looking for. You can start by searching tags like #sims 4 cc, #ts4cc, #s4cc, and go from there.

What SimsFinds is doing, is trying to turn THIS into THIS (more about TSR HERE)

CC Finds blogs that I recommend can be found at the bottom of my CC posts, as well as my own CC finds blog, which I’ve spent a lot of time organizing <HERE>, & there are many, many CC finds blogs on Tumblr that you might come across yourself as well <3

If you are new to Tumblr & make an account to save things for later, remember to personalize your blog, write something in the description so that your blog doesn’t look like a bot account (you can read about that here)

Loki understands rage about injustices. They understand the grief that comes, too. They understand that the Chaos that comes before the healing hurts. They know. They understand.

They will sit with you while you grieve. They will hold you while you heal.

Loki’s Correspondences

Deep within me, a long time ago, arose the need to do some research and create something concrete on this matter, what began as a means of finding reference quickly became a devotional act. So, this is a compilation of information and some of my insight about the deity and possible correspondences. Do feel free to disagree and also to hit me up with other information or your personal insight, these, albeit coming from a lot of research, may not be universal.

Norse Mythology

ig: @sunshine.writing

As with every culture, there are many different interpretations and I tried my best to use the most popular ones. There are also many different versions and spellings for the names of the gods and goddesses, but I used the anglicized and most popular spellings. 

Aesir and Vanir

The Norse gods are divided into two families, the Aesir family, and the Vanir family. The Aesir family is the larger of the two and is mostly connected with war and government and includes the gods Odin, Thor, Loki, Baldr, Hodr, Heimdall, and Tyr. The Vanir family includes the fertility gods and goddesses such as Njord, Feyr, and Freyja. Both families reside in Asgard but don’t see eye-to-eye as shown through the Aesir-Vanir war. 

Besides the Aesir and Vanir, there are also female deities known as Disir, Alfar (elves), Jotnar (giants), and Dvergar (dwarves).

Aesir Gods and Goddesses

Odin - Odin was the King of the Aesir clan and known as “the father of all gods.” He’s depicted as a one-eyed, bearded old man wearing a hat and a cloak. He was said to have slain the first being known as Ymir before carving up his body to help create the Earth. He was one of the most powerful and revered of the gods and associated with wisdom, knowledge, healing, death, and war. He also ruled over Valhalla. 

Thor - Son of Odin, he was regarded as the strongest of all the Norse deities because he was tasked with safeguarding Asgard. He was the most popular of all the gods and worshipped by most Vikings. He was the god of thunder and lightning and wielded the Mjolnir. He rode a chariot drawn by two massive goats called Tanngnjostr and Tanngrisnir.

Loki - Loki was considered a “blood brother” of Odin. He was known as the trickster god and was equipped with the ability to shapeshift into different forms. He was the chief engineer behind the death of Balder.

Frigg - Frigg was the wife of Odin and the queen of the Aesir gods. She was the only one allowed to sit next to her husband and always stuck by her partner even though he had many extramarital affairs.  She was worshipped as the goddess of the sky and associated with wisdom, marriage, family, and fertility. She was blessed with the power of divination but never revealed her visions to anyone. 

Baldur - Son of Odin and half-brother to Thor, Baldur was the god of light and purity. He was described as fair, kind, and handsome, whose beauty was unparalleled. He was the epitome of all things wise and good and often praised for his mercifulness. Also thought to be immortal, he had been prophesied to die and was slain by an arrow made out of mistletoe, his death orchestrated by Loki. 

Heimdall - Heimdall is the son of Odin and no less than nine mothers, and is the watchman of the god. He dwelt at the entry to Asgard where he guarded Bifrost. 

Tyr - Tyr is the god of War and the Lawgiver of the gods. The bravest of the gods, he makes the binding of Fenrir possible by sacrificing his right hand. He’s the son of Odin and the son of the giant Hymir.

Idun - Idun is the goddess of spring or rejuvenation and is the wife of Bragi. She was the keeper of the magic apples of immortality which the gods must eat to preserve their youth. 

Bragi - Bragi is the skaldic poet of the Aesir and his name means “poet”. He’s the son of Odin and possibly the giantess Gunnlod, and the husband to Idun. 

Vili and Ve - Vili and Ve are the two brothers of Odin who helped to slay Ymir to create the remaining seven realms. They’re the sons of Bestla and Borr and were raised in the realm of Nifelheim.
