Farhan’s Personal Practice - 07/10/2023

Currently working on revitalizing my personal practice, and re-evaluating the deities I am working with. Here are the major changes I’ve made thus far!

1. I have been trying to work with Shakti in the form of Durga and Kali for the past year or two, but have recently realized that they have no interest in working with me. This was a hard thing to accept - especially given how long I had been working on my relationship with Durga in particular - but I also feel like a lot of tension has left me since coming to this realization. Since accepting this I have felt a recent pull to dedicate my devotion to Sarasvati and Shailputri! Sarasvati I chose because I both felt drawn to her, and because as a Capricorn she is a very auspicious Ishta Devata for me. As for Shailputri, I felt intuitively drawn to her (I can explain this more if anyone’s curious ☺️).

2. Again finding a deity who I don’t work with well - I am changing my focus from Hestia toward Gaia. I don’t believe Hestia is *against* working with me - but I feel like her attitude towards me can be summed up by a shrug emoji 😅. However I feel *very* intuitively compelled to learn more about Gaia and see if this is a better fit.

3. I am working on building a relationship with Apollo and I’m having mixed results 😅 he seems genuinely interested in building a relationship with me but also seems *super* jealous any time I’m trying to work with other deities, or even research other deities? (Has anyone else experienced a kind of possessive nature in their dynamic with Apollo?) I used to be a devotee to Diana/Artemis before my transition, and recently I wanted to try working with a male deity for a change (I typically only work with female deities). After seeing some people talk about their experiences with him on here I decided to give it a shot :)

4. In my person practice I center most things around the 4 elements - so ideally I’d like to have 4 core deities I work with. Currently I have Apollo for Fire, Sarasvati for Water, Gaia for Earth, and Shailputri for Air. I’m trying out this arrangement to see how things work out - but I’m not 100% set on anything yet.

If you want to learn more or have any questions my ask box is always open!

⬇️Becharaji or Bahucharaji is a temple town and taluka capital in Mehsana district of Gujarat state, India. The town is associated with Hindu goddess Bahuchara Mata worshipped as Bala. A short motor ride towards Chanasma and you come to the town of Becharaj and the temple of Bahuchar Mata, an incarnation of the Mother Goddess. Pilgrimages are undertaken to this site for vows fulfilled and boons granted. Bahuchar Mata is the patron goddess of the womenfolk who invokes her intervention in domestic violence and problems within the family. The goddess is also a principal deity of transvestites and eunuchs who flock here in large numbers to seek the blessings of the goddess. There is always a crowd of devotees and this mother is riding on a chicken, so people do not eat non-veg, the whole area is vegetarian. @vi_vikass Use- #vi_vikass . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #bahucharaji #bahuchar #indian #goddess #jaimaadurga #mataji #mahishasurmardini #matalakshmi #jaimatadi #durga #durgamaa #durgamata #durgadevotee #hinduism #hindu #divine #ambaji #maavaishnodevi #vaishnodevi #sherawali #kalimaa #maakali #saraswati #khodiyarmaa #santoshimaa #lakshmi #matarani #india #jaimaavaishnodevi (at Shree Bahucharaji Temple, Bahucharaji.) https://www.instagram.com/p/CjBDUg1pV8z/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
