Men like Trump will fail in the end. Look at Hitler, he wanted to rule the world 🌍 but he lost in the end. Trump tried to overthrow the government in 2021 to stay in power but lost and he will lose again.

They know that if they were to take off those masks, they could be arrested for doing illegal things. A FBI,a police officer, Sheriff deputy, etc. know that they must follow the law. But it seems that most of the ICE agents don't do that and they may be fake.

It seems that ICE doesn't follow the rules of due process.

And these five officers who were killed+ the 140 officers who were injured families won't be compensated for protecting the US CAPITOL and yet one terrorist family will get millions of dollars from the Trump Administration. Where is the fairness in that?

You would think that there is enough evidence 🧾 against Trump in trying to overthrow the government and there was but since he cheated to win the 2024 election, the case was dropped. Karma will get him and his entire Administration in the end. Look at the Musk and Trump feud.

All hail Hékate

Deity Studies: Hekate

The Liminal Queen, Keeper of Keys, and Torchbearer in the Dark

Imagine standing at a crossroads beneath a moonless sky. The world is hushed, wrapped in a velvet veil of shadow, and the only sound is the whisper of wind through the trees. Then—light. A torch flares to life, illuminating a figure who stands where the paths converge. She does not choose for you, but she watches as you decide. This is Hekate: goddess of transitions, thresholds, and mysteries too deep for daylight.

To call Hekate merely a goddess of witches is to undersell her drastically. She is the liminal embodied, a theon of sovereignty, magic, and protection. She guards the crossroads of not just roads, but life itself: birth and death, ignorance and knowledge, isolation and communion. And yes—she walks with the witches.

Let’s step into the shadows and light a candle for Hekate, one of the most ancient and enigmatic figures of the Western spiritual imagination.

Origins & Mythic Roots

Hekate’s roots stretch deep into the ancient world, and like many powerful goddesses, her origins are a bit cloudy—perhaps deliberately so. The earliest written record we have of her is in Hesiod’s Theogony (c. 700 BCE), where she is described as a Titaness, daughter of Asteria (a star-goddess) and Perses (a figure associated with destruction or ravaging fire). Hesiod paints her as beloved by Zeus, honored above all, and given dominion over sky, sea, and land.

Yes, you read that right: a Titaness who survived the Olympian overthrow not through defeat, but favor.

While later Greek and Roman writers narrowed her domain to the underworld and witchcraft, Hesiod’s portrayal makes her a solar and celestial power as much as a chthonic one. There are whispers she may have pre-Greek Anatolian roots, possibly connected to Carian or Thracian deities, given her widespread veneration in Asia Minor.

Even in the ancient world, Hekate was a complex composite. She wasn’t reduced to tidy categories like “love goddess” or “war goddess.” Instead, she hovered between roles, belonging to none and all.

Evolution Over Time

In classical Athens, Hekate began to be seen as a liminal guardian. She was invoked at doorways and crossroads, often in her triple form—three bodies or faces looking in different directions. These depictions likely developed from earlier singular statues but quickly became iconic.

Shrines to Hekate, known as Hekataia, were placed at thresholds—particularly at the entrances to homes and cities. She was called upon for protection, warding, and purification, especially in times of illness, political unrest, or spiritual impurity.

Over time, particularly in the Hellenistic period, Hekate’s chthonic associations deepened. She became a psychopomp, a guide of souls, and a mistress of necromancy and ghosts. Her epithets tell the story of her roles:

Kleidoukhos (Key-holder)

Phosphoros (Light-bringer)

Propylaia (Before the gate)

Chthonia (of the earth)

During the Roman period, she was increasingly associated with magical texts and rituals. In the Chaldean Oracles (2nd century CE), Hekate appears not just as a goddess, but as the Cosmic Soul—a metaphysical principle bridging the divine and material realms. This esoteric, Neoplatonic vision of her would later influence Renaissance occultism.

Like all goddesses of power, Hekate was reshaped through patriarchal lenses, alternately feared and revered, demonized and deified. But she never vanished.

Symbolism & Associations

Hekate’s symbols are rich and layered, often evoking mystery, power, and transformation. Some of her most enduring associations include:

Torches: Her most iconic symbol. As a torchbearer, she brings light to the darkness—both literal and metaphorical. She guides souls and seekers alike.

Keys: Representing her access to hidden realms and the power to open or close pathways—spiritual and mundane.

Dogs: Her sacred animal. Often described as black or spectral, her hounds are said to precede her arrival. In ancient rites, dogs were sacrificed to her at night. In modern practice, they are often seen as protective familiars or guides.

Crossroads: Both physical and symbolic. She governs places where decisions must be made or multiple realities converge.

Snakes: Tied to regeneration, earth wisdom, and the underworld.

The Moon: Especially the dark moon phase. While she isn’t solely a moon goddess, lunar imagery clings to her in modern depictions.

Herbs and Plants: Hekate is tied to powerful botanicals such as aconite, yew, garlic, and mandrake—plants with protective, poisonous, or liminal properties.

Her colors are often black, red, and deep purple—shades that echo her chthonic nature and her fierce autonomy.

Modern Pagan & Occult Views

Modern devotees often find Hekate at spiritual turning points. She is a patroness of witches, especially those walking eclectic, solitary, or non-traditional paths.

She has become a key figure in Hellenic polytheism, traditional witchcraft, Wicca, and devotional witchcraft alike. Contemporary Hekatean magic includes:

Deipnon rituals at the dark moon, where offerings are left at crossroads or outside the home to honor her and cleanse spiritual debris.

Key magic, using actual keys in spells to open or close situations.

Spirit work and necromancy, often in carefully constructed rituals with strict boundaries.

Shadow work and initiation, as Hekate is often invoked to aid personal transformation.

The Covenant of Hekate (CoH), founded by Sorita d’Este, has helped create a scholarly yet devotional network of Hekatean practitioners across traditions. Their work highlights how she can be both deeply personal and cosmically archetypal.

Importantly, modern Hekate isn’t just the spooky goddess of witch memes. She’s fierce, yes—but she’s also a guardian of the vulnerable, an advocate for liminal people, and a torchbearer for those finding their way in the dark. She asks for respect, not fear.

Pop Culture Presence

Hekate has made scattered appearances in pop culture, though she’s rarely portrayed with the nuance she deserves.

In the Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, she’s invoked as a triple goddess of witchcraft, a welcome nod to her modern resurgence. In Percy Jackson & the Olympians, she’s a minor character with magical influence.

She’s also mentioned in various video games, such as Hades (by Supergiant Games), where her themes of guidance and transformation echo through aesthetics more than direct involvement.

Unfortunately, she’s also been lumped in with the generic “evil witch goddess” trope in some horror films and low-tier fantasy. These caricatures lack her depth and complexity—but perhaps that’s the cost of cultural persistence.

Reflection/Conclusion

Hekate is not a goddess you can put in a box—unless it's a locked one, buried at a crossroads, wrapped in nightshade and bound by oaths.

She is as much a guide as a mystery, and she rarely gives easy answers. Yet for those willing to sit with the unknown, to walk the winding path, and to light their own torch, she offers a powerful ally.

In her, we see the beauty of thresholds: places where things begin, end, and become. We find a goddess who honors the outsider, the seeker, the strange and sovereign self. Hekate reminds us that we do not walk alone, even in the darkest night.

So leave an offering, sweep your threshold, and listen closely the next time you find yourself at a literal or metaphorical crossroads. You may not see her—but you will feel her watching.

Glamour Magic: The Art of Becoming Who You Already Are

The Witchy Intention Blog | A Trusted Grimoire for the Modern Magical Path

Glamour magic isn’t just about beauty. It’s not about being the “hottest witch in the room” (though you absolutely can be).

It’s about transformation. Not into someone else—but into a more intentional, visible, and powerful version of yourself.

It’s the spell of perception. The ritual of self-reclamation. The quiet shimmer of knowing exactly who you are and letting the world feel it before you even speak.

It’s walking through the veil with lipstick, perfume, or none of the above—and still casting a spell that changes the room.

🪞 What Is Glamour Magic, Really?

Glamour is not just how you look. It’s how you’re received.

It’s the feeling someone gets when they meet your eyes and suddenly can’t look away. It’s the shift in the air when you enter a space, whether dressed like a goddess or cloaked like smoke.

It’s not just costume. It’s intention woven through presentation.

Glamour magic is:

Speaking with power in your voice and silk in your cadence

Enchanting your reflection until it reflects truth, not insecurity

Casting visibility spells with red lipstick or a veil of fog

Wearing colors, stones, scents, or sigils that say something without needing to explain

Think of it like magical theater, but the mask reveals more than it hides. You’re not becoming something false. You’re amplifying the frequency of your magic so others can feel it—and you can believe it.

🧙‍♀️ Where Did Glamour Magic Come From?

The word glamour comes from old Scottish lore, where it meant a magical illusion—a fae trick of the eye. Something beautiful, beguiling, a little dangerous.

Witches in myth enchanted their appearances to seduce, vanish, or protect. Spirits appeared cloaked in grandeur or terror depending on who they needed to impress.

In ancient rites, kings and queens wore symbolic regalia not to flaunt status—but to embody power.

In folk magic and Hoodoo, glamour lives in mirror spells, confidence oils, attraction charms, and sugar jars full of intention.

Glamour has always been a sacred tool. A spell of presence, not pretense.

❌ What Glamour Magic Is Not

Let’s bust some myths while we’re here:

🚫 It’s not just for femme witches 🚫 It’s not shallow or vain 🚫 It’s not about pretending to be someone you’re not 🚫 It’s definitely not just about looking “hot” (though, again—you might)

✨ Glamour magic is energy work.

It’s charisma sorcery. Aura architecture. It’s putting on your power like armor—or slipping through shadows like mist.

It can be loud or quiet, soft or sharp, golden or ghostly.

Sometimes it says, “See me.” Sometimes it whispers, “Forget I was ever here.”

Both are valid. Both are magic.

💄 Everyday Glamour Magic (That You’re Probably Already Doing)

You’re more magical than you think. Glamour’s already in your bones. Here’s what it looks like in real life:

Putting on enchanted perfume and whispering your intention at your pulse points

Wearing a ring you’ve charged to make you feel bold, beautiful, or untouchable

Stirring honey into your tea before a date and saying, “May I be sweet and remembered”

Dressing like your higher self—even if it’s just a different pair of socks

Drawing a sigil in your mirror fog that makes you feel seen

Walking with your shoulders back like the energy behind you is a crown

It doesn’t have to be dramatic. But it should be intentional.

💋 Quick Spell: Lip Gloss of Command

A fast enchantment for clarity, confidence, and charm when speaking

You’ll need:

Your favorite lip gloss, lipstick, or balm

A mirror

Your voice

Chant while applying:

“On lips I place this velvet charm, Let my words enchant, disarm. Power flows through tone and grace, My truth is heard in every space.”

Hold your gaze in the mirror. Speak your name like a spell. Then go out and speak like you mean it.

🌙 Who Are You Becoming Today?

Every glamour spell begins with a question: What version of me do I need to embody right now?

Choose your archetype. Dress the part. Cast the spell.

🪞 Glamour Archetypes:

The Siren – magnetic, sultry, unreachable

The Oracle – wise, mysterious, cloaked in insight

The Healer – soft-spoken, grounded, luminous

The Shadow – veiled, invisible, protected

The Warrior – direct, bold, unshakeable

The Star – radiant, unforgettable, center-stage

The Mirror – clear, reflective, impossible to pin down

Each one is real. Each one is you. You’re not faking anything. You’re summoning it.

🕯️ Final Thoughts: Glamour Is a Spell of Self-Love

Let’s make this clear:

✨ Glamour magic is for you first.

Before anyone else sees it, you should feel it. Before it enchants the room, it should anchor you in your body.

To choose how you are perceived is an act of sovereignty. To reclaim your image is radical magic. To look in the mirror and see not a flaw to fix, but a spell to cast? That’s everything.

Whether you sparkle or hide, strut or slink— If you’re doing it with intention?

That’s glamour. And baby, it’s working.

🔮 Stay radiant. Stay mysterious. Stay magic.

Blessed be the mask. Blessed be the mirror. Blessed be the truth beneath them both. 🌕

If you notice Trump's right 👂, there is nothing wrong with it. That "assassination" attempt back in July 2024 was a hoax, a fake. If he had been really shot in his right 👂, it would be gone totally,even grazed and he wouldn't have a right 👂. He refused medical treatment, refused to go to a hospital 🏥 and there is no report.

In other words, he faked that "assassination" attempt to gain sympathy from his supporters. Sadly two people died - the shooter and a man in the stands. How can someone go to all this trouble to win an election?

Trump had to go along with pretending to have part of his ear 👂 gone by putting a bandage over it to keep the charade going. At the Republican convention, most of the delegates had a bandage over their right 👂. And how did he win so quickly in the 2024 election? How did he win the states that Biden won in 2020? The answer is: He stole the election somehow against Harris. Harris should've questioned the results and demanded a recount to see what the final tally was.

If Trump isn't stopped soon, America will be like Germany at the end of WWII in ruins. So yes, history is repeating itself.

BE AWARE: HISTORY IS REPEATING ITSELF

Trump & Hitler Compared

Comparison 1: Nationalism and Scapegoating Minorities

Hitler (1930s Germany):

Hitler’s rhetoric emphasized an ethnically pure German identity and national rebirth, exploiting economic despair and cultural anxiety following WWI. He blamed Jews, communists, and other minority groups for Germany’s defeat and economic troubles. The Nuremberg Laws institutionalized racial discrimination, stripping Jews of their rights as citizens.

Trump and the GOP (2015–Present):

Trump has repeatedly used xenophobic and racially charged language, calling Mexican immigrants “rapists” and proposing a “total and complete shutdown” of Muslims entering the U.S. His administration instituted the Muslim ban, attempted to eliminate DACA, and enacted family separation at the border. Republican-backed state laws increasingly target immigrants and minority voters, using the guise of security or voter integrity, echoing exclusionary policies of the past.

Comparison 2: Undermining Democratic Institutions

Hitler:

After becoming Chancellor, Hitler manipulated the Reichstag Fire in 1933 to invoke emergency powers. The Enabling Act gave him the authority to legislate without parliamentary consent, effectively dismantling democracy. He repeatedly painted political opponents as traitors or enemies of the state.

Trump and the GOP:

After losing the 2020 election, Trump refused to concede, launched dozens of baseless legal challenges, and incited the January 6 insurrection—an unprecedented attack on the peaceful transfer of power. He and his allies have labeled political opponents as “deep state,” “communists,” or “enemies,” aiming to delegitimize dissent and create a hostile political climate. Many GOP figures continue to downplay or deny the events of January 6, paralleling historical patterns of rewriting or ignoring threats to democracy.

Comparison 3: Control of Media and Disinformation

Hitler:

Joseph Goebbels led the Nazi Ministry of Propaganda, controlling all media, art, and public messaging. The regime spread disinformation, suppressed dissenting voices, and crafted a narrative that glorified the regime while demonizing its enemies.

Trump and the GOP:

Trump labeled mainstream media “the enemy of the people,” a term used by authoritarian regimes to delegitimize journalism. He and GOP-aligned media outlets like Fox News, Newsmax, and OANN have been pivotal in spreading conspiracy theories (e.g., QAnon, election fraud), while vilifying fact-based reporting. This creates an alternate reality for supporters and undermines trust in factual information, similar to propaganda methods used by authoritarian regimes.

Comparison 4: Cult of Personality and Loyalty Above Law

Hitler:

The Nazi regime revolved around the Führerprinzip—absolute loyalty to Hitler. Personal loyalty to him was expected above all else, including law, ethics, or reason. Independent institutions were absorbed or dismantled.

Trump:

Trump demands personal loyalty from public officials, often attacking or firing those who disagree with him (e.g., FBI Director James Comey, former Attorney General Jeff Sessions, or military leaders). Loyalty to Trump—not the Constitution or democratic norms—has become a defining feature of many in the GOP. Those who criticized his actions, including former allies, are frequently branded as traitors or RINOs (“Republicans In Name Only”).

Comparison 5: Militarization of Patriotism and Law Enforcement

Hitler:

The SA (Sturmabteilung) and later the SS were paramilitary forces used to intimidate opposition, enforce Nazi ideology, and maintain “order.” Hitler used them to blur the line between state power and partisan violence.

Trump and the GOP:

During the 2020 Black Lives Matter protests, Trump deployed federal agents (often unmarked) to suppress demonstrations, particularly in Portland, Oregon. He encouraged violent responses to protesters, infamously saying, “When the looting starts, the shooting starts.” Some extremist groups like the Proud Boys, Oath Keepers, and others that support Trump have acted as quasi-paramilitary forces—prominent among those who stormed the Capitol.

Conclusion:

While the U.S. remains a functioning democracy, the parallels between Hitler’s authoritarian rise and the tactics employed by Donald Trump and elements of the Republican Party are real and well-documented. They include:

Scapegoating and demonizing minorities

Discrediting democratic institutions

Spreading propaganda and disinformation

Fostering a cult of personality

Encouraging or ignoring political violence

These tactics, if unchecked, threaten the foundations of democratic society—just as they did in 1930s Germany. As history shows, democracies often crumble not from external attack, but from internal erosion.

Be Aware: History will repeat. This has happened in the past and it can happen again.
