Yesterday, I had a lovely conversation with Fenrir through....jelly beans
Yes, I know how ridiculous that sounds but trust me, it was worth the laugh
I was in the forest on a walk, listening to nordic music while I was trying to connect with Fenrir
The whole walk was full of dogs' meetings, I've met like 8 dogs in 40 minutes or so
I also found a branch in a shape of a 'F' letter
I felt his presence by my side, I felt safe
Then I decided to open my jelly beans' bag and asked "who is trying to contact me"
I started guessing, each name was a jelly bean.
I knew it was "the darker" deity because the first bean was dark purple, so I knew where to look.
I knew that it was Fenrir because the jelly matched the first one.
After that, we started the talk.
I asked if I should get him tattooed. He said no. I asked why. He said he doesn't want other people to see him this way (I'm not so sure what he meant by that, but I assume he doesn't want to be seen as this angry, dangerous creature). I asked if I should get any tattoos. He was a bit sceptical about it but said it's my choice.
He also gave me advice on his devotional work, especially with horses (I was about to go to work in the barn)
And the most important thing he told me was to give others love and love myself. He knows it's hard for me, to love and accept myself, but with him by my side I think it might be a bit easier.
There were also some personal things he said, so I'll keep it to myself, but I have to say, Fenrir is the most gentle soul I've ever talked to. He's so caring
I might be delusional about all that, I even laugh at myself that I talked through jelly beans, but as long as I believe it, it's true

Pagans who collect rocks they find on the ground.
Pagans who buy crystals because it makes them happy.
Pagans who have to declutter a space every time they want to make an altar.
Pagans who lose track of time sitting in front of their carefully crafted altar.
Pagans who live in the northern hemisphere trying to sort through mainstream holidays to find what’s left of theirs.
Pagans who live in the southern hemisphere and struggle to celebrate seasonal holidays and feel out of synch with their community they do.
Pagans who talk to the moon about their day.
Pagans who look into the eyes of their loved ones and find traces of divinity.
Pagans who revel in the freedom of their practice.
Pagans who worry if they’re doing something wrong.
Pagans (I love y’all so much and I’m grateful for every one of you)
Have a wonderful equinox to those still celebrating it! Blessed Be
