Now is a good time to remind folks that Ed and Lorraine Warren were known frauds and grifters, and that Annabelle is definitely NOT the reason Nottoway burned down.

I am overcome with joy at the destruction of a disgusting display of American horrors. The fact that they ever dared to call this a resort, to have this be a place where people were wed in holy matrimony, to have this be anything other than a somber reminder of the blood seeped into the foundations of this country, speaks volumes to how America still is today. Let us rejoice as this stain on the land is cleansed.

The card of the day is the Shaman (or more commonly known as the Magician) reversed. It is a reminder to us all that we need to remember our power and utilize everything that we have at our disposal. Have you been ignoring your talents because you feel they aren’t “enough” or marketable? Do you downplay your strengths in a misguided attempt to be humble or to not draw negative attention? If you’re a practitioner of magic, have you not cast in a very long time because you feel down or not enough? If you believe in higher powers, have you not prayed because you feel it’s not “important enough”? The Shaman can be looked at in many ways. It is the first card after the Fool. Is the Shaman the Fool himself, given gifts of power to help him on his journey? Or is the Shaman a wise sage the Fool meets on his journey to enlightenment? Tell me in the comments what you see!

The last message of this card is to beware of charlatans and folks who do not have your interests in mind. Things may not be what they seem and people are more than they appear.

{description of card}: the tarot card pictured is that of an elder, silver haired eastern dragon. In front of him is a golden fire pit that burns, smoke curling up and over a green, Pearl-like substance. I’m the background is an ocean with megalithic like structures, on top of which is a sword, a flaming wand, and a gold coin with a star and dragon on it.

For many just entering the pagan and esoteric worlds, offerings that originate from the body such as blood, or sexual fluids have been played off as not only acceptable, but good, by many online communities. But to the Hellenic spirits, this act is offensive and impious. Bodily fluids were considered miasmic or unclean. War or death gods do not want your blood. Love gods don’t want sexual fluids. This is not the case in every pagan tradition which is why I believe this information has become so widespread and common. It is also possible that some gods might ask for these offerings. I’ve found two things true in these instances based on personal gnosis. One, that is not the actual deity, but an imposter. Two, it is the god, but they are testing you. Testing to see if you’re knowledgeable of the old ways and laws, trying to see if you will be able to create boundaries with spirit, which is necessary in this world. If you practice witchcraft, these things can still be utilized, but leave the Greek gods out of it.

I would say I won’t elaborate to sound cool but Greek mythology is a special interest so I WILL elaborate.

TW: mentions of SA and unaliving.

So Artemis is the typical feminist archetype for the modern world. She’s independent, u***d, leads a band of badass hunters and doesn’t put up with mortal men in any capacity. In contemporary times a lot of people have been under the impression that she is le***an coded as well, which I find to be a valid interpretation.

And while she is a wonderful, untamed figure for the modern feminist, she shouldn’t be the only one.

Demeter in todays world has been often written off as a helicopter parent, overbearing, dramatic, etc. especially as more and more retellings of the story of Hades and Persephone emerge as Persephone being a willing participant in her situation. I’ll be the bearer of bad news: she wasn’t. There is no surviving source that Persephone fell for Hades, went to the underworld of her own accord, etc. as far as the ancients were concerned, she was abducted. This is reflective of Ancient Greek society. Girls grew up the property of their fathers and eventually became the property of their husbands. Often these women at shockingly young ages would be carted off to gods know where, and would sometimes never see their families again. The story of how Demeter traversed the earth, day and night, neglecting the duties of her godhood to the point of mass extinction would’ve been striking to the ancient woman. All the gods of heaven couldn’t satisfy her with any gift or bribe. Even Zeus himself couldn’t make her budge until she was reunited with her daughter. Had Persephone not been tricked in the underworld to eat the pomegranate, she would’ve left the underworld, likely to remain with her mother forever. A mothers love subverting patriarchal law? Revolutionary.

Now Ares? How on earth could the insatiably bloodthirsty god of war be a feminist icon? I think it’s because we’ve forgotten most of the stories he features in. Remember the Amazons? Badass female warriors who ruled their own lands without the interference of men and even fought in the Trojan war? Their patron? Ares. He literally fathered the first amazons and remained their greatest ally. Also, let us not forget. When one of his daughters was assaulted by a son of Poseidon, he didn’t hesitate for a moment and slew him. How many male (heck even female) figures in Greek mythology actually dole out true justice for that horrific crime? Even when Poseidon called him to court to challenge him over the death of his son, Ares did not back down and actually won the favor of the other gods in the trial. Men, be more like Ares. Don’t stand up for your pervy buddies, strike them down instead!

So there you have it! Thanks for reading!

If Zeus and Hera have millions of fans, I’m one of them. If they have only one, it’s me. If they have none, I’m dead.
