Worshipping goddess Aphrodite 🌙🕯️

Worshiping Aphrodite can involve offerings like flowers, incense, or sea shells. Consider engaging in activities that celebrate love, beauty, and harmony, such as creating art, practicing self-care, or fostering positive relationships. Additionally, learning about and incorporating Aphrodite's myths into your practices can deepen your connection with the deity.

Visiting natural places associated with love and beauty, like beaches or gardens, can be a way to honor Aphrodite. Offering prayers or dedicating time for meditation and reflection on love, compassion, and relationships is also meaningful. Some people choose to celebrate festivals dedicated to Aphrodite, like the Aphrodisia in ancient Greece. Tailor your worship based on personal preferences and cultural interpretations of Aphrodite's attributes.

Explore rituals such as lighting candles in her honor, using colors associated with love and beauty (like pink or red), or incorporating gemstones like rose quartz into your practices. Reading and reciting poetry or hymns dedicated to Aphrodite can be a poetic way to express devotion. Engage in acts of kindness and generosity as an embodiment of her values, and remember that genuine love and respect in your relationships are fundamental to honoring Aphrodite.

Folk witch tip #2

Someone did you dirty but you don’t want to get down into the nitty-gritty? Instead of hexing or cursing, bless them.

Bless them to learn their lesson sooner rather than later. Trust me, life lessons hurt.

Ooooor, you can bless the people around them to see their true nature.

You’ll make them pay for sure ✨

Got spoiled fruit? Are you a witch?

Here's a simple spell for attracting sweetness into an unsatisfactory social life.

Cleanse your area, preferably a floral scent of incense. (Use whatever works for you and make sure it's safe for animals if you have any).

Get whatever spoiled fruit you have, and run it under warm water until room temperature or heated.

Cut the fruit open.

Sprinkle the inside with sugar for sweetness and purity.

Drip honey into the slice for attraction.

Top with yarrow for healing and positive energy.

Seal with black or brown wax for protection (black) or home blessings (brown).

"Wrapped in warmth, sealed with safety; everything is perfectly okay."

Low Energy Devotional Activities and Ways to Connect with the Gods

Let's be honest, religion and consistent practice can be HARD, especially when you're chronically ill, disabled, mentally ill or neurodivergent. This is a list of lower energy practices you can do to connect with your Gods when you're having a rough day.

Pray. You don't have to say the prayer. You don't have to do the full cleansing and offering. Just think about the prayer. It could be as simple as "'Deity Name', thank you. I'm thinking of you and appreciate you."

Dedicate any self care you do to the Gods. You've got to take meds? awesome. it's now a devotional activity.

If you can, light a tea light candle. You can think about who you're dedicating it to as you're lighting it.

Tell them about your day. Have a simple conversation with them (again, this can be in your head if needed).

Offer some water! Water is a great offering if you don’t have the energy to cook, collect or buy something.

Incense is also a great offering because you can light it then forget about it and your house won’t burn down (if you follow regular safety measures). 

Resting. Your deities want you to be okay. Dedicating your rest to your deities is especially great if you feel guilty for allowing yourself time to heal.

Turn on a video of someone reading mythos! 

Put on a deity playlist. There are plenty of pre-made ones on Spotify. 

Veil or bind your hair! Whenever I’m low energy I’ll throw my hair in a ponytail and bind it that way. It doesn’t have to be extravagant. 

Make a Pinterest board for them!

Post on a digital altar! There are plenty of discord servers that have digital altars and temples. You could also make a devotional Tumblr blog. 

Change your phone lock/home screen to something that reminds you of your Deity.

I hope this is helpful to anyone who needs it! Take care of yourself first and foremost. If you don't think you can manage something on this list then thats perfectly fine too! you're not a bad person for not being able to do something spiritual or religious. Ultimately, these things are not a necessity. Don't stress :)

In Defense of Aphrodite! - A Devotional Work!

Hello all, this is a thing I wrote a while back, but now that I have a blog, I figured I would share it! I get so annoyed by people giving Aphrodite flak and dishonoring her by the words they say. While I understand that most of these individuals are not pagans, or even Hellenist for that matter, I still think it is disrespectful. For those of you who are not Hellenist out there or worshipers of Aphrodite, please understand that she is a goddess, and that there are people who do honor and respect her. So, if you are a non-pagan and you put yourself in the shoes of an Aphrodite worshiper for a moment, you would see why we are annoyed, and quite frankly why we are angry about the recent trends spreading about our goddess on TikTok.

In Defense of Aphrodite:

What this post will cover:

What she is not!

How she shows love!

How she shows beauty!

She extends herself far beyond just love and beauty!

She is a mother figure!

She is not a monster!

What she is not!

People, pagans included seem to shun Aphrodite. They mock her and belittle her. They assume that because in myth she is portrayed as jealous, sadistic, and uptight, that it must be relative to her true nature. However, this is not, and never was the case. Aphrodite is not a monster; she doesn't "curse women who are compared to her in beauty". She definitely doesn't "take away your beauty if you ignore her". She is totally not the "whore" that modern media has reduced her to. She most certainly is not an advocate for the lesser-known toxic femininity that people often cast her with, otherwise known as a diva. She is SO much more than what people see!

How she shows love!

If you would just get to know her, and begin to be one within her bliss, she will show you her truly loving, caring, compassionate, patient, and unconditional nature. This is when you begin to love her as she loves you. When you get to know Aphrodite you see that there is more to life than just slugging through pay-check after pay-check, that there is more to life than what the media will advertise to you, that life itself is beautiful. Life is her gift to us, and thus we should cherish this gift. She animates our soul, and fills us with wonder, and amazement to explore the world, and to explore life with curiosity. Life is such a special and sacred thing. She cried for Adonis when he perished, but this is not just her sadness for the death of her mortal lover, this is the sadness that she feels when each and every one of us dies! That is how much she truly loves us! She cherishes every waking second she gets with us before it's our time to go. She is love incarnate!

How she shows beauty!

Aphrodite can teach us one major thing about beauty, that is, that it is subjective. Beauty is, and always has been in the eye of the beholder. Beauty is not the caked-up face that society has forced upon most women, true beauty comes naturally. You are already SO beautiful and you don't even know it. Beauty is not reserved for celebrities, or models. Beauty is not the stereotypical body standard that plagues society these days. Beauty is for all! Men, and women alike can rejoice, and appreciate the beauty in themselves, and in our world! There is beauty in us, in the rustling of the trees on a windy day, within the hearts of the ducks swimming gracefully upon the pond, within the eyes of any living creature. Aphrodite is beauty incarnate! If you just look for her, she is everywhere!

She extends herself far beyond just love and beauty!

Aphrodite is the goddess of all love and beauty, but she is SO much more than that. She is also the goddess of pleasure, passion, romance, and desire - none of which are inherently sexual in nature but can very well be sexual in nature if one wishes. she is the goddess of the self; self-love, self-care, self-adoration, self-confidence, even self-discipline - the list goes on. She is the goddess of the heart and is a heart healer. You can vent your sorrows to her, and she will listen, and she will guide you to healing. She will speak to you, be it in your subconscious, or in your heart itself, she will heal your sorrows and your pain.

She is a mother figure!

Aphrodite is a mother too, and if you are one who has a not-so-great mortal mother, Aphrodite will take you into her arms, and openly accept you as her own child - though you are not her blood born child, and most certainly are not a demi-god - she will still take you as her own, especially those who lacked the parental love they needed in childhood. She loves her children very much and will do anything in her power to protect them. If Eros is anything to look at in myth, she doesn't let him get away with Psyche so easily, and I feel that as a mother, she was just trying to better understand Psyche before letting Eros pursue her fully. She wouldn't want anyone to hurt Eros. She gives this same loving motherly protection to all her children. She loves us so very much!

She is not a monster!

As we can see, Aphrodite is not a monster, she is not the vile goddess myth portrays her as. She is lovely in nature to say the very least about her character. She loves all, and wants us to realize that beauty is subjective, and that everyone holds their own beauty inside and out. I pray that Aphrodite blesses and protects each and every person who reads this! <3

My favorite simple wards to guard the home

Hanging rosemary above the doorstep, and/or above doors of the house for protection.

Sprinkling a line of dried red pepper on a windowsill, to counter a curse.

Placing a mix of dried & ground eggshells and black pepper in every corner of a room to keep out unwanted spirits.

Placing a decoration representing a witch in the kitchen, to keep away illness and to favor health.

Crafting an effigie (no matter how crude!) and make it into the guardian of your home by charging it with your intent of protection and placing it near the front door.

Crafting small witch ladders to hang around the house.

[woahmycats]

Discrete Warding for the spiritual/witchy ppl that can’t practice in the open:

Use herbs you have in your kitchen. (Rosemary, salt, black pepper, and usually anything spicy can be used to protect yourself or your home. Be careful of some spices getting wet, though. They can dye your counters/door frames 😅)

Incorporate your witches ladders/fabric wards into crafts.

Keep a broom by your main entrance.

Burn a stick of incense by windows and doors and focus on your intention (also be careful n do your research. No appropriating. No harming your animals with smoke.)

Incorporate sigils in your art work or doodles :)

Hi nikia how r u?

Hope you r having a good day

Will you share with me any beauty ritual or spell to manifest our desire type of body and face ... Plsss I've been so insecure about myself lately ..

nikia's beauty and confidence spell!

Hi there! First of all, I want to say that there is nothing wrong with you. Magick can not fix what does not need to be fixed. However, it sure as hell can give you some confidence and banish insecurity!

I worked with Lady Aphrodite to formulate this spell.

TIMING

Preferably on a Friday, but works anytime you feel down or insecure.

INGREDIENTS

A bowl of moon water. Must be large enough to wash your face in.

6 rose petals, dried or fresh.

Rose quartz.

Apple juice/red apple

STEPS

Set your ingredients up at a sacred place or somewhere in nature.

Cleanse your area either with smoke if indoors or visualization if outdoors. If desired, cleanse your ingredients

Cast a circle or protect yourself in some way.

Pour the rose petals and rose quartz into your bowl of moon water.

As you put the ingredients in, visualize the water lighting up with a pure, white, or pink light.

Say the following:

Lady Aphrodite, I call upon you,

to better my beauty and spark my confidence.

Great goddess of the sea, I ask you

to come to me, with the power

to banish my insecurity.

So mote it be.

7. Wash your hands and face with the moon water

8. Leave your apple/juice out as an offering to Lady Aphrodite.

Blessed be and be safe everyone!

Things to put in your book of shadows

Of course, only put in your book of shadows/grimoire what you want. If you don't want to put certain subjects in your book then that's fine. It's your book, utilize it how you want. This is just a masterlist of ideas that I've put together. Feel free to add anything else to the list that I may have missed, because there's absolutely no way I included everything.

And for the love of all the gods, if you come across a closed entity or practice, don't try to work with the entity or practice if you're not already part of that group or tradition. You can research it but don't practice it.
