Devotional Blog 𓋹 ♡ Poppy! a journal

[warmhomewarmheart]

Hello!

☾𖤓✧˖ °𓋹✧˖ °☾𖤓

i’m semi new to tumblr, i mostly just lurk and scroll so this is my first time actually creating a blog with the purpose of posting.

You can call me Poppy, Solace, Carmesí, or any nickname or term of endearment you want. he/they and queer. english/spanglish

Im greco-kemetic/helpol and omnist. I practice witchcraft but nothing in specific, i think the term is eclectic. eclectic, but in a respectful way. I love research and learning new things, and i try to keep an open mind.

Im audhd and dominican american🇩🇴 . I also have fibromyalgia. feel free to ask me any questions about myself and my practice, whether i answer or not is a different question lol but i love answering questions. im goth and also apart of a few other subcultures but i doubt that will be important on this blog. This blog is devotional and also to learn and explore and have fun. the main topics will be greco-kemeticism, hellenic paganism, spirituality and just praising the gods in general.

Be kind. I rarely do or say things with the intention of being mean.<3

i’ll update as needed.

Currently worshipping: Hestia, Hekate, Aphrodite.

Christmas Trees aren’t pagan…So why are people so obsessed with this myth?

Before you respond in anger, ask yourself:

- do I think this because it feels right or because I have evidence?

- is the evidence a blog post without citations? (See also TikTok, tumblr post, etc)

- do I think this bc I’ve thought it for a long time?

- what evidence do I actually have?

- how much time have I spent researching this? (again: opinion pieces without citations don’t count as research)

Scholars agree: there is no solid evidence linking Christmas trees to previous pagan traditions…

Let’s trace its origins back to the German nationalists of the 1800s, to the Nazis who promoted this myth, & let’s debunk the supposed origins — Saturnalia, Yule, Sol Invictus, the Yule Log….all with citations galore.

Hey folks, just wanted to gently remind all of you that Lady Hestia cares about all of you. I just saw some religious discrimination firsthand from one of those Christians who think the best way to spread love is by being hateful to those different from them, and I didn't really like that energy, so i thought I'd spread some real love for all of you <3 (quick clarification, this isn't to say that Christianity is in any way inherently bad, I'm just tired of seeing it used as an excuse to hurt people and get away with it) ✦︎ Lady Hestia loves those who feel comfortable in their own homes. ✦︎ Lady Hestia loves those who need to leave their homes. ✦︎ Lady Hestia loves those who don't even have homes.

✦︎Lady Hestia loves those who regularly connect with their biological families. ✦︎ Lady Hestia loves those who prefer their found family instead, ✦︎ Lady Hestia loves those with no families at all.

✦︎ Lady Hestia loves those who cook hearty meals for themselves and for Her. ✦︎ Lady Hestia loves those who can't offer Her anything because they're barely making ends meet. ✦︎Lady Hestia loves those with complicated relationships with food.

✦︎ Lady Hestia loves those who are open about their practice. ✦︎ Lady Hestia loves those who are closeted. ✦︎ Lady Hestia loves those who don't even worship the Theoi, because in the end, all life is sacred.

✦︎ Lady Hestia loves everyone, at their best and at their worst.

Our Lady of Hearth and Home is kind and protects us all. She is sweet, she is caring, and I know She would fight tooth and claw for all of us to feel safe and comfortable. I hope you all have a lovely day/night/whatever the time may be, I'm gonna go rest my eyes now. Hugs and kisses, and if anybody ever needs a person to talk to, I'm here for you guys :)

one of my ears has completely swallowed one of the o rings on my ear plugs and the other ear is about to…i say i size up 👼

[warmhomewarmheart]

update, ears have been stretched💥 for some reason the stubborn one was easier than the one that literally swallowed a ring but oh well. i made sure to massage them and use oil and i stretched them after a hot shower 😌 it was a nice little ritual of self care fr

finally made a little altar for hekate, i might have hekate and aphrodite share an altar because i don’t have a lot of space and have christian parents so i need to be more discrete. i have my shelves full of trinkets and stuff so it wouldn’t look out of place. i wish i had the money for small statues 💔 soon…
