My roman empire is how back in 2018, I went into a natural pool by the ocean wearing jewellery (a necklace my parents gave me when i was a baby, a silly pandora crown ring right hand and a cheap pearl ring from primark left hand) and I sat on the ledge of the natural pool. Like I normally did. Coincidentally that was also the one and only time that the tide turned rough and knocked me. I fell into the actual ocean and almost drowned.
I remember actively fighting to stay afloat. I just kept getting hit with waves to the face, the closer i got to the ledge of the natural pool the more tired i got. But i kept trying to get to the ledge, no joke you guys, I felt both of my rings slip off my hands and suddenly I wasn’t drowning anymore. The tide calmed and I easily got back up on the ledge.
Needless to say, I have not gotten in the water with jewellery again. I was CONVINCED that the mermaids or sirens saw the jewellery and had to have it. Everyone kept telling me that it was just sheer bad luck and to not sit on the ledge anymore. But that didn’t sit right with me and so I held onto the memory, even journalled about it a few times.
Fast forward to 2023 when I stumbled across this tiktok. I still go back to the tiktok quite often AND for real this was my reaction:
Now, anytime I go to the ocean I’m careful as to what I’m wearing, I leave the mermaids and sirens little offerings. And talk to them a bit.
Makes me feel at home y’know? It’s like a massive groupchat with Lady Aphrodite, mermaids and sirens. I love it.
Moral of the story: don’t get into the ocean with shiny glittery things and if you absolutely have to, you should leave the girlies an offering

Being a celestial witch is great because it also implies there's branches of earth/geo magic (earth is a planet. in space) and elemental magic (the periodic table)

Some UPG and VPG-adjacent things I associate with Hekate
Silver arrows (In association with Artemis)
Black and white design patterns
Irregular, unpolished crystals
Chokers, especially black ones
When animals see things that are presumably not there
Fur lined coats
Butterflies and moths
Frogs and toads
Various aspects of the ocean (She shared the domain with Poseidon and was prayed to alongside him). These include:
Pirates (Outcasts, opportunists and very superstitious, especially women who resorted to piracy)
The deep sea and the animals within it (especially deep sea fish, as fish are one of her sacred animals)
Liminal areas and the feeling that comes with it
Seeing things out of the corner of your eye

There's no way you guys aren't getting the point............
"Apollo is just a uwu soft sunshine boy!"
Apollo, the God who guarantees freedom?
Apollo, bringer of disease as well as health?
Apollo, who without his light, all life would cease to exist?
Apollo, God of the heatwaves, blinding lights, the chemical compounds that birthed and maintain a star you can't even look upon without hurting yourself?
Apollo, God of music and poetry, raw emotion made physical through melodies and words sewn together, compositions and words that remain timeless?
That Apollo?

Does anyone have good sources or advice for doing protection spells and making wards while living in an apartment?
This means:
No fire, no incense, no smoke
No hanging things on walls or doors,
No open windows
No stains or smells

If the Gods aren't real then explain why stumbling upon a unique depiction of a God can, without explanation, make me so emotional
