https://www.etsy.com/nl/listing/1475050449/slinger-kristallen-slinger-natuursteen would this pendulum work? And how to activate them 🤔 sorry if too many questions. I'm going crazy here LMAO

That's a very beautiful pendulum!! It would definitely work.

To activate your pendulum, what I do is pretty simple. You're going to want to cleanse it first; you can do that with any of the elements. I'd recommend either using incense or burying it in salt!

Then, what I like to do is ask for a yes, no, and maybe. For me, when my pendulum goes forward and back, that's a yes; when it goes side to side, that's a no; and when it goes in a circle, that's a maybe.

No worries about "too many questions"! There are never too many!!! 🫶🫶🫶

Take care of yourselves guys!

Do u have some hellenic polytheism and Norse paganism books? I need like 5 a 3 books on hellenic polytheism

Hi!

I dont have many books on those pantheons, actually :( it's odd because I love to read! I'm currently trying to get through the Iliad and Odyssey, but it's definitely difficult. I'd recommend the Prose Edda by Snorri Sturluson for norse mythology :)

Hello! Any advice or suggestions for prayers or offerings to ask Lord Apollon for healing or temporary relief from pain? (ie period cramps, joint pain) have a wonderful day/night! <3

Hey there!! I hope you're doing okay <3 I totally understand needing some help with chronic pain and such. I have chronic migraines, and sometimes I pray to Apollon and give him offerings, as well!

For me, I do the offering part after the chronic pain goes away. When the pain hits, it's hard to move to be honest. So, most of the time, I'll pray and promise an offering later!

I've looked around a lot for any specific prayers to do with chronic pain, healing, etc, and I can't find like, anything. Sooo instead of giving you a real prayer, ima give you some tips!

1- The structure of a Greek prayer is invocation, argument, petition. The invocation part is basically calling out to the deity, using their name and any specific epithets/qualities you want to address. So for Apollon and healing, you'd use Apollon's epithets for his healing aspect. The argument is just justifying why the deity should help you. For example, "If I have ever offered you (example), set up an altar," and any other thing you've done for him. The petition is what you're asking for. Here is where you'd say, "Please help me with my joint pain," or something to do with healing.

2- For me, prayer is laid back. I use formal prayer a lot, don't get me wrong, but I also just talk to my deities. Apollon is completely fine if you just say- "Apollon, I need help. Please can you make this stop/go away?"

3- it's also totally okay to write down the prayer and read it! You don't have to memorize anything.

4- if you're in pain, you don't have to do the whole posture thing when praying. The gods understand, I promise :)

As for offerings, anything you usually give him is fine! Once you receive your answer from the prayer (hopefully the pain goes away!!!), you can give him anything from water to jewelry to crystals to whatever else. You can also do a devotional act in honor of him! It really does not matter what *kind* of offering it is, as long as it's an offering made with good intentions.

I hope this helps!! Take care of yourselves 🫶

This is not so much an ask as it is a statement: I've purchased from your Etsy shop twice now, and you are an incredibly talented reader who I absolutely would not hesitate to recommend to others. I really need to get around to leaving you a second review on Etsy, but here's one for Tumblr, in case any of your followers had any doubts about purchasing from you. You were spectacularly in-depth and accurate - you totally went above and beyond in each reading! And my deity left an in-joke in your shufflemancy list, which delighted me to no end. 👍👍

Hiiii! Thank you SO MUCH for this review oh my goodness 💖💖💖 I'm so so glad both readings resonated and you enjoyed them!!! It was a joy to read for you, and I'm forever going to be grateful for your purchases 💖💖💖

Take care of yourselves guys!!!!

do u sell pendelums or something or are you going to? i'd love to have one, and if not, can i buy them somewhere else and how does that work? maybe a stupid question

Not a stupid question at all!!!!

I do not sell pendulums at the moment; I do candles and tarot readings, primarily. Maybe someday I will!

Some alternatives to a pendulum if you can't buy one are basically anything on a stting; necklaces, string with a charm on it, etc.

Honestly, I would go on etsy or find a local metaphysical store and search for pendulums there!!

Pendulums are really easy for communication. They can answer yes, no, and maybe; if you need more specific answers, you can always get a pendulum board (or make one) with the alphabet, times of day, zodiac signs, etc.

I hope this helped! Take care of yourselves guys 🫶

An Update!

Hi my friends :) firstly, I'm sooo thankful for all of the lovely asks and such lately! I'm trying my best to get caught up. Today, I mostly slept 😭 I've honestly been a bit off lately. I'm going to do my best to get better soon! I've got two orders on my shop to do (four in total, thank you), and then I'll try to answer those who have asked for readings. Thank you for your patience and I'm really sorry for the inactivity 💖💖💖

Heyy I have some questions about divination with deities if that's okay :)

How do you properly ask them to be present??, also how do you know they are there and that they are the deity you are calling and not other presence?? And the last one, how do you respectfully thank them and say goodbye?

If you have other tips or recommendations I'd like to know too

Thank you!!

Hi there!! What a good question :D I always love getting questions about deities!

To call a deity into your space, there are a few methods you can do. Here is mine:

1. Light a candle, or find something to represent the deity. This could be a photo, a figurine, a rock; anything that reminds you of them, really. This can help "visualize" the deity more!

2. Talk to them. Say something like, "(deity name), I would like for you to come into my space so that I can talk to you about (insert issue, question topic, or general topic). Thank you."

3. Vet the deity. Ask them questions about their mythology, symbolism, and associations. This helps when you're figuring out if the right deity has arrived.

4. Have your conversation, reading, offerings, etc. Whatever it is you contacted them for, now is the time to discuss it.

5. To end your session, blow out your candle or set aside the thing used to represent them. I say something like, "thank you for being here. You can stay if you'd like, or you can go, but I will be focusing on other activities for now."

I hope this helps!!! I'm sorry for the relatively short response, I'm pretty tired lol

heya, quick question what's a godspouse?

Hiiii!!! I'd love to answer this question! Thank you for asking :)

A godspouse, to put it simply, is someone who makes a lifelong oath or devotion to a deity. This could be romantic, familial, platonic, or devotional. In many cultures, godspouses exist; it's only the term "godspouse" that is relatively new. For example, greek deities and mortals; nuns to Jesus; etc. Godspousal is not common, but it is possible!

If you'd like to see a more in-depth post on godspousal, I have had a few asks about it you can find on my page!! I'm a bit tired rn from readings, so I apologize for such a short answer. :(

Take care of yourselves! 🫶

Hi, Sun! How's your April so far? I hope it's going great! Can I please request a reading about my spirit guides?

If possible, I'd like to know of these things, please:

> Who might they be

> How they view me

> Any important message/s they have for me

If any of these questions make you feel uncomfortable, please feel free to answer what you only want/can.

I greatly appreciate this opportunity! Blessings to you and have a wonderful day ahead.

- Maryel 🌼

Hey Maryel!!! It's lovely to meet you. My April has been okay! Ups and downs, but mostly ups :) I hope your April has gone well too!!!

I can try to answer your questions; the only thing I will say is that I can't necessarily put names to spirit guides. So, what I will do instead is describe their attributes and personalities! I'll try to identify a few for you.

The first thing I'm going to do is ask for your spirit guides to come into my space. To do this, I hold a pendulum and ask aloud for them to come forward. When I get a "yes", I start the reading.

For this reading, I'm going to do something similar to a deity identification tarot spread. Here is what I'll be using:

I made this spread! Anyone can use it any time :)

Anyway, onto the reading:

Spirit Guide #1

Card One: Six of Wands

The Six of Wands translates to success, public recognition, progress, and confident. A six in tarot usually represents growth, overcoming challenges, leaving things behind, and understanding yourself. This spirit guide in particular is a very outgoing, confident figure. They know who they are, and they're not afraid to show it. They've overcome a lot of problems and issues over their time here, but they've grown to understand the lessons.

Card Two: The Fool

The fool's meaning has to do with beginnings, innocence, spontaneity, and being a free spirit. This spirit guide, while confident and outgoing, can sometimes be a little bit too spontaneous. They might do things that are silly, but receive many consequences later on.

Card Three: Page of Wands (reversed)

The Page of Wands (reversed) includes newly formed ideas, redirecting energy, and spiritual paths. A Page in tarot often means new beginnings, new phases, and next steps. Because the imagery on the Page of Cups is of a young man, it's safe to assume that this spirit guide is a male.

Card Four: The Hermit

Card Four explains what the spirit guide likes to do for fun; the card they gave was The Hermit, which means introspection, being alone, soul-searching, and inner guidance. In this case, the spirit guide enjoys helping others, especially when it comes to relationships and conquering insecurities.

Card Five: Seven of Wands

The seven of wands represents challenge, competition, protection, and perseverance. This spirit guide is here mainly to protect you, as well as help you persevere through challenges in your life. They may also be sending small tests to check on your ability to get through tough times.

Card Six: The Magician

Card Six, representing what you can do to collaborate with this spirit guide, talks about power, skill, concentration, action, and resourcefulness. To connect with this guide, you might want to work on logical skills. Concentrate on focus and problem-solving. Any time you make a decision, study, or even look at a situation logically, know that this guide is with you and is there to help.

Interpretation: This guide sent primarily major arcana cards and the suit of wands! In tarot, the wands represent primal energy, spirituality, inspiration, determination, strength, creativity, original thought, and more. This spirit guide seems to be extremely creative and does well at problem-solving. They are there to help; they enjoy helping. They will always be there when you need them!

Spirit Guide #2:

Card One: Eight of Cups

The eight of cups represents withdrawal, escapism, and abandonment. While this card may seem negative, an eight in tarot talks about work, change, and getting where you need to go. So, a positive trait about this spirit guide is that they are able to guide you wherever your path should go. Their skill lies in letting go of past resentment and problems, and moving forward.

Card Two: Ten of Pentacles

The Ten of Pentacles, supposedly a negative trait, represents wealth, security, family, and contribution. A ten means final outcomes, the end of a cycle, rewards, and consequences. I'm really playing into the security and consequences part; it seems like this spirit guide holds their cards close to their chest, maybe a bit too much. They prefer not to be vulnerable; this may come from family issues, or it may come from their own resentment.

Card Three: Strength

Card Three, Strength, represents the gender of this spirit guide. The imagery of the strength card shows a woman and a lion, so it's safe to say that this spirit guide is a lady.

Card Four: Eight of Pentacles

This spirit guide sent the eight of pentacles, which talks about apprenticeship, tasks, mastery, and skill development. In their free time, they prefer to be practicing a skill, whether it be teaching themselves or other people. They enjoy the practical things in life, but they also like to have fun with it!

Card Five: Six of Pentacles

Six of Pentacles, which is meant to represent their purpose as a guide, talks about giving, receiving, generosity, and charity. A six represents growth, overcoming challenges, leaving things behind, and understanding yourself. This spirit guide is there to aid you in selflessness! It's important to remember that you are allowed to be selfish as well. They want you to have a balance between giving and receiving; not too much loss and not too much gain.

Card Six: Ace of Pentacles

The Ace of Pentacles talks about manifestation, new opportunities, and abundance. Aces typically talk about beginnings, initiative, drive, potential, and the early stages of an endeavor. Take the reigns! Start a new adventure. Whenever you are trying new things, manifesting, and standing up for yourself and others, that's when your guide is beside you. They are there to help you grow and change; they are there to help manifest who you are meant to be. So go ahead and move forward knowing they will be with you all the way!

Interpretation: this guide sent a lot of pentacles in your reading. The pentacles typically represent work, business, trade, material possessions, ego, self-esteem, and self-image. This spirit guide is work and play! They enjoy finding the balance in things, whether it be generosity, work-play, or communication. They love to see you grow and change, and they love to see you love yourself. Know that they are so excited to get to know you, and they are proud and happy for every achievement you've had thus far.

Spirit Guide #3:

Card One: Seven of Wands

The Seven of Wands talks about challenge, competition, protection, and perseverance. A seven in tarot usually represents confidence, truth, determination, and having faith. This spirit guide is very protective and determined. They are strong and independent.

Card Two: King of Cups (reversed)

The King of Cups (reversed) is meant to speak about self-compassion, inner feelings, moodiness, and manipulation. A King usually represents authority, power, and believing in yourself. While this spirit guide is protective and confident, they can sometimes be overbearing and easily angered. They might get self-absorbed sometimes.

Card Three: Temperance

In tarot, the Temperance card represents balance, moderation, patience, purpose, and meaning. The person depicted on Temperance is female, so it is safe to say that this spirit guide is a lady, as well.

Card Four: The Star

The Star represents hope, spirituality, renewal, inspiration, and serenity. This spirit guide engages in a lot of spiritual hobbies in their free time; they love to connect with nature, other spirits, deities, and energies.

Card Five: Nine of Pentacles (reversed)

The Five of Pentacles (reversed) is said to represent what this guide is here for. Recovery from financial loss and spiritual poverty are some key words for the Five of Pentacles (reversed). They are here to guide you on your general spiritual path; when you pray, when you connect with nature, when you give offerings, and when you meditate, know that they are there to keep you safe and protected. They do their best to have your space nice and peaceful, without any harm coming to you.

Card Six: Knight of Wands

The Knight of Wands represents energy, passion, inspired action, and adventure. Interact with your spiritual path more! Whether that be praying, doing spellwork, leaving offerings, or even simply lighting a candle, they would love to see more of your practice in your daily life.

Interpretation: This spirit guide didn't send any specific suits; they want you to decide what you think of them, and how you want to interact. They are there to help you in your spiritual path mainly, but know that they are also welcoming any general questions from you. They are hopeful that your spiritual journey will give you some insight as to what might happen in the future.

Your spirit guides were very kind and understanding during this reading! I do hope this resonates and that you find this to be helpful in your practice 🫶 as always, take care of yourselves!
