~ Celtic Mythology - Cernunnos

Celtic/Gaulish god of nature and fertility. Often referred to as The Horned One or wild god of the forest.

[tarotwithavi]

God is a woman. And I have proof.

Not the kind of proof that fits neatly into textbooks or scriptures but the kind you feel in your lungs when you breathe in fresh air, the kind that soaks into your skin when it rains, the kind that feeds you, shelters you, holds you, without asking for anything in return.

Mother Nature.

She is the only god who has never hidden from us. She has never demanded worship only respect. She provides everything: air, water, food, beauty, life. Silently. Constantly. Unconditionally

And yet, she is the one we ignore. We pollute her, poison her, cut her open and call it “progress.” While praying to invisible gods men told us to believe in , god that look suspiciously like them, think like them, rule like them.

Because maybe they couldn’t bear the truth that the most divine force in this world was never male. That creation itself has always been feminine. That the real god was a mother, not a king. They wrote her out of the story. Buried her under temples and guilt and rules.

But she’s still here. In every tree. Every wave. Every breeze. She’s never left us.

God is a woman.

And you’ve known her all your life. she exists inside you and around you.

Some pillar candles I made for Asteria, Greek goddess of astrology, divination, and falling stars. She is mother to Hecate, goddess of witchcraft and necromancy 🌌🖤✨🕯️

𝐂𝐀𝐁𝐈𝐍 𝐄𝐈𝐆𝐇𝐓: 𝐴𝑟𝑡𝑒𝑚𝑖𝑠 🏹

Being claimed by Artemis means many, many things...Artemis is the Protector of the Young (especially female) and the Leader of the Hunters of Artemis/Diana.

Is the Goddess of the Hunt, Hunting, Nature, Wilderness, Vegetation, Forests, Woods, Jungles, Animals, Wildlife, Wildness, the Moon, Moonlight, Lunar Cycles, Childbirth, Birth, Fertility, Health, Healing, Plague, Protection, Virginity, Chastity, Maidenhood and Archery.

𝑾𝒉𝒂𝒕 𝑰𝒔 𝑪𝒂𝒃𝒊𝒏 𝑬𝒊𝒈𝒉𝒕 𝑳𝒊𝒌𝒆?

Its structure is graceful but wild, woven from pale wood and moonlit stone. Ivy wraps the beams, and soft animal tracks are always visible in the earth outside.

Bow racks and hunting gear are kept with reverence, and pelts line the floor like offerings. There's always a breeze, always starlight filtering in, no matter the time of day.

This cabin doesn't call to everyone...only to those who belong to the wild.

𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝑷𝒐𝒘𝒆𝒓𝒔 & 𝑨𝒃𝒊𝒍𝒊𝒕𝒊𝒆𝒔 𝒐𝒇 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝑯𝒖𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒓𝒔 𝒐𝒇 𝑨𝒓𝒕𝒆𝒎𝒊𝒔

𝑺𝒊𝒍𝒗𝒆𝒓𝒚 𝑨𝒖𝒓𝒂: Hunters of Artemis tend to have a silvery aura around themselves.

𝑨𝒓𝒄𝒉𝒆𝒓𝒚: Hunters of Artemis are extremely proficient at archery, even more so than the Apollo kids.

𝑬𝒕𝒆𝒓𝒏𝒂𝒍 𝒀𝒐𝒖𝒕𝒉: Hunters of Artemis are semi-immortal, which means that they do not age or get sick, but they can die in battle, or if they break their vow.

𝒁𝒐𝒐𝒍𝒊𝒏𝒈𝒖𝒊𝒔𝒎: Hunters of Artemis have a telepathic connection with wolves and falcons.

𝑯𝒖𝒏𝒕𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝑾𝒆𝒂𝒑𝒐𝒏𝒔 𝑺𝒖𝒎𝒎𝒐𝒏𝒊𝒏𝒈: Hunters of Artemis can summon their bows and arrows, and their hunting knives, whenever they need them, but it is tiresome.

𝑵𝒊𝒈𝒉𝒕 𝑽𝒊𝒔𝒊𝒐𝒏: Hunters of Artemis have excellent night vision, so much so, that they can see as well at nighttime as they can in the daytime.

𝑬𝒏𝒉𝒂𝒏𝒄𝒆𝒅 𝑷𝒉𝒚𝒔𝒊𝒄𝒂𝒍 𝑷𝒓𝒐𝒘𝒆𝒔𝒔: Hunters of Artemis tend to have enhanced strength, agility, and dexterity.

𝑯𝒖𝒏𝒕𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝑺𝒌𝒊𝒍𝒍𝒔: Hunters of Artemis are skilled hunters, as they hunt monsters with Artemis.

𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝑷𝒐𝒘𝒆𝒓𝒔 & 𝑨𝒃𝒊𝒍𝒊𝒕𝒊𝒆𝒔 𝒐𝒇 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝑪𝒉𝒊𝒍𝒅𝒓𝒆𝒏 𝒐𝒇 𝑨𝒓𝒕𝒆𝒎𝒊𝒔:

𝑳𝒖𝒏𝒂𝒌𝒊𝒏𝒆𝒔𝒊𝒔: the manipulation of the moon and its' light as their mother has divine authority over the moon. They can even create arrows made out of silvery moonlight, which never fail to hit their target unless an outside force intervenes. They are also more powerful when the moon shines on them, and they can use moonlight to communicate with anyone, espescially their mother and other lunar gods.

𝑪𝒖𝒓𝒔𝒆𝒔: Children of Artemis have the ability to turn anyone into the opposite sex of what they currently are, but only temporarily, like their mother did to Sipriotes.

𝑺𝒉𝒂𝒑𝒆-𝑺𝒉𝒊𝒇𝒕𝒊𝒏𝒈 (𝑳𝒊𝒎𝒊𝒕𝒆𝒅): Children of Artemis have the ability to turn into to turn into animals of wildlife. However, this ability is quite rare.

𝑪𝒉𝒍𝒐𝒓𝒐𝒌𝒊𝒏𝒆𝒔𝒊𝒔: Children of Artemis can use Chlorokensis and have control from a forest's tallest trees to its grass.

𝒁𝒐𝒐𝒍𝒊𝒏𝒈𝒖𝒊𝒔𝒎: Children of Artemis have the ability to communicate with and understand stags, hawks, and wolves given that they are their mother's sacred animals. They can also understand other wildlife.

𝑵𝒊𝒈𝒉𝒕 𝑽𝒊𝒔𝒊𝒐𝒏: Children of Artemis have night vision that allows them to see in even the darkest night.

𝑴𝒐𝒐𝒏𝒍𝒊𝒈𝒉𝒕 𝑳𝒂𝒔𝒆𝒓𝒔: Children of Artemis can fire lasers of moonlight from their eyes, just like their mother can do. It works identically to heat vision.

𝑳𝒖𝒏𝒂𝒓 𝑮𝒓𝒂𝒗𝒐𝒌𝒊𝒏𝒆𝒔𝒊𝒔: Children of Artemis can use the moon's gravity to weigh down an opponent and hinder their mobility, or they can make themselves nimbler by lessening the gravity around them.

𝑴𝒐𝒐𝒏𝒍𝒊𝒈𝒉𝒕 𝑬𝒏𝒉𝒂𝒏𝒄𝒆𝒎𝒆𝒏𝒕: Children of Artemis can heal at an accelerated rate if they are bathed in moonlight, as well as move faster and hit harder.

𝑴𝒐𝒐𝒏𝒍𝒊𝒈𝒉𝒕 𝑯𝒆𝒂𝒍𝒊𝒏𝒈: By using moonlight, they are able to heal their allies. However, the more serious the injuries are, the more energy and concentration it requires to restore them. Should only be done sparingly

𝑳𝒖𝒏𝒂𝒓 𝑻𝒓𝒂𝒗𝒆𝒍: The use of moonlight as a means of teleportation and appear anywhere as long as the moonlight can shine in that location. Known as "Lunar Travel", which functions identically to Shadow Travel.

For those who belong in Cabin Eight...

You are not made for cities or crowns. You are made for forests, for freedom, for vows that never break.

You are Artemis' legacy; sacred, sharp, and untouchable.

(p.s. As Artemis is a virgin goddess, all her children are born through parthenogenesis.)
