I have a beautiful, protective, invisible force field around me like a giant pearl
Hiii!
So correct me if I'm wrong, you work with deities, right? I was wondering if someone gave a food/drink offering to a deity, would it rot? Do they have to replace the offering every few days or nah?
Hi! Yes I do :)
So, this really depends. Back in the yknow ancient days, people would typically leave the offering alone. However, most people nowadays aren't comfortable with "wasting" food like that, so I would say most people who work with deities will either not offer food or they'll eat the offered food themselves.
Now, I have seen people just leave the food, I see it more with Chthonic deities, and oftentimes they'll either compose the food afterward or just throw it out (but again, most people aren't comfortable with just throwing it out so they're usually not doing so).
How often you offer something to a deity depends on the deity you work with and yourself. Some people try to do it every day while others can only do it every now and then. And there are other kinds of offerings, not just food! For example, every time I'm listening to music, I can offer it to Apollo.
Now that I think of it though, you could totally just manifest that the food never rots hahah
instant manifestation is completely natural
spawning things in real life is completely natural
manifesting things out of thin air is completely natural
changing the past is completely natural
molding reality like it's a piece of clay is completely natural
being able to shift realities as an instant is completely natural
going back in time is completely natural
walking on water is completely natural
raising from the dead is also completely natural
you can do all of this effortlessly because this is your NATURE.
don't be afraid of the illogical, the physical substance holds no power against you, you will always be greater than everything.
if you are ever afraid to dream big or manifest things that go against the laws of nature, read this post again and again and ask yourself: is it worth it to worry about things that I could reach easily if I believed in myself a bit more? because the ability to mold reality is GIVEN to you, you were born with it, you don't have to fight for it, you just have to accept that this is who you are

Whatever you habitually think yourself to be, that you are. You must form, now, a greater and better habit; you must form a conception of yourself as a being of limitless power, and habitually think that you are that being. It is the habitual, not the periodical thought that decides your destiny.

i understand historically why it happens (colonization and wars and genocides and such) and im not here to argue that but hot take, i honestly wish Greek/Roman gods and goddesses weren't so popular and weren't so talked about. i think Percy Jackson and Marvel has made it so much worse but i get tired of running into polytheist/deity worship blogs that all honor the same like 5 gods. not intending to be mean but i get so bored reading 34758695 posts about how Aphrodite's light and love will cure self esteem and self love or whatever and lists of correspondences to rocks you need on your altar to honor loki
Valid. It does feel like there is clique-y behavior in witchcraft and pagan communities online where the same 5 deities are talked about constantly.
I also feel this popularity makes it hard for those interested in paganism to branch out and find what deities catch their interest. There are hundreds of deities. But I can only think of... less than 10 that get talked about consistently online.
When you are not being the person you desire, you are robbing everyone else from the joy you can bring them and worse, you rob yourself. - Edward Art
the sin which the bible talks of is not fulfilling your desires. you are meant to fulfill your desires. for what other reason do you live then? you are meant to live in happiness, to experience all the joy in the world. and if you are actively not letting yourself experience that joy then you are sinning. do not restrict yourself of joy. if you do not let yourself experience joy you are restricting everyone else of joy too as everyone is you pushed out, therefore, the pure joy you feel will ultimately be reflected onto everything. but when you are not being the person you desire then you are not letting the rest of the world be joyous either.
Imagination defined in the dictionary is the faculty of mind that produces images independent of reality. The world thinks this (3D world) is reality, and your imagination is not.Β I am telling you, it is just the reverse. - Neville Goddard
your imagination is your reality and the 3D world is not. the 3D world is but a reflection of reality (your imagination). that is because you only live through your imagination and everything you see is therefore a creation (manifestation) of it.
so, why ponder on the how? itβs quite pointless. just imagine and let it be. feel it to be yours and thereβs nothing else to be done. itβs already yours because your imagination is the reality, not the outer-world. to change your reflection, you must first change self. not the other way around.
You can't discuss HOW I am going to Barbados when I am already IN Barbados. - Neville Goddard
if you already have it in your mindβs eye, then nothing can stop it from reflecting back into the outside. if you change your hair you inevitably see it in the mirror. if you change something about yourself it will inevitably manifest on the outside.
hi <3 this isnβt meant to bring up bad memories or anything (please donβt feel like you need to answer) but with the hardship you went though, how did you stay consistent with having a strict mental diet? like how did u change ur life in a week by sticking with it, as Iβm struggling really bad with homelife and feel like Iβm just too drained daily bc of it. Iβve read your βhow I changed my lifeβ post and Iβm trying to apply the law but itβs like I never reach the sabbath state, even with persisting and affirming. (this isnβt meant to be a trauma dump I just need advice !)
donβt strain yourself, my dear. affirming is a technique, donβt do it if you donβt want to.
youβre not trying to get into the wish fulfilled, youβre already there. itβs the end state. take it easy on yourself.
close your eyes and ask yourself, in your imagination, do you have your dream life? say yes to imagination because thatβs the only truth. that is what creates reality.
βI tell you the truth, the Son can do nothing by himself; he can do only what he sees his Father doing, because whatever the Father does the Son also does. For the Father loves the Son and shows him all he does.β
imagination is the father, the outer world is the son. it has no will of its own, only to serve and reflect what you claim to be in imagination.
now bask in this feeling that you do have it. not you will - you do. you have it now.
return to this state whenever you want to - itβs your end, your truth.
thereβs no extra work you have to do.
with a mental diet, I only affirmed on loop whenever the intrusive thoughts that came affected my mood/mental state. for the others, they remained powerless so there was no point in going against them, just shift your awareness and let them pass.
oh my god there are so many books to read and instruments to play and languages to learn and people to meet and songs to hear and food to taste and places to see and lives to live.
