Vepar in my experience is very much like her domain, the sea - dangerous and fierce, life-giving and nurturing, a being of both creative and destructive power.
Learning the history behind your Gods is one of the easiest ways to dismantle the allure of “danger” that being raised monotheistic sometimes places on the very concept of syncretic worship.
Like, for example, when you realize how many gods of the Greco-Roman Pantheon(s) are borrowed or heavily influenced by other cultures you’ll realize that there’s no concept of “true” Hellenic or Roman worship. You’re worshipping a bunch of Gods only some of whom are rooted in only-Greek or only-Italic concepts and cultural ideas. A lot of Them are Syrian, Celtic, Iranian, Egyptian, Sumerian, Anatolian, etc. - or are influenced enough to lose this “purity” of self.
Worshipping this religious cluster is by definition being syncretic, I would say. Because Greek and Roman Pantheons are by definition syncretic. You’re fine. You’re not “disrespecting” anyone by doing this.
I started a blog on Wordpress for longer posts! This is my first one and it's about how the myths of the Fall and of Hell can give one strength to live - even when there is not much hope that things will eventually be okay.
(Largely based off of things historically associated with him)
Apples (forbidden fruit, Paradise Lost)
Pomegranate, fig, grape (forbidden fruit, debated amongst scholars with grapes being the most universally agreed upon)
Wine (an intoxicant made from said "forbidden fruit", a theory follows that wine being used for communion was intended to reverse its sinful nature into something holy)
Goats (biblical)
Snakes (biblical)
Dragons (biblical)
Flies (biblical)
Pigs, cats, bats (middle ages)
Red and black are common modern associations
Bright colors, namely yellow (a belief in the middle ages that the devil made bright colors to tempt humanity, especially in combination with eachother)
Sulphur (biblical)
Common modern associations such as black metal and anything considered by others as "Satanic", as there is still power in it even if it isn't a traditional offering
Anything considered going against Christian values, such as saying the Lord's prayer backwards, inverted crosses, expressions of sexuality, etc
Enn:Tasa on ca Camio renich
Other names:Caim, Caym
The Fifty-Third spirit is President Camio, or Caim. In the form of a bird called a thrush at first, but afterwards He puts on the shape of a man carrying in his hand a sharp sword. Camio can be invoked for divination of any type. Wear his sigil to see into any situation you encounter. He seems to answer in burning ashes, or in coals of fire. He is a good disputer. His office is to give unto men the understanding of all birds, lowing of bullocks, barking of dogs, and other creatures; and also of the voice of the waters. Camio teaches the art of astral projection, shape shifting and flying in the dream. He gives true answers of all things to come. Caim is useful in legal functions and other situations where you need to dispute conclusions drawn by interpretations of fact. This is a handy spirit to have if a case is brought against you based largely on circumstantial evidence. He is also adept at teaching the understanding of omens and portents. He was of the Order of the Angels, but now rules over thirty legions of spirits Infernal.

⬩It is important to learn protections before trying to work with any spirits. You can get tricksters and parasites if you don't.
Cleansings- cleaning your space of negative energies. You can burn herbs or incense for this.
Banishings- forcing negative energies out of your space. The lesser banishing ritual is one of the most commonly used.
Warding- wards keep negative energy out of your space. Amulets, sigils and talismans do this.
Set up a your space and do a cleanse and banishing. Have wards up in your home. Meditation is to calm yourself and get your mind ready. The sigil (symbol) is what you draw on paper. The enn is what you chant or say to call forth the spirit.⬩
What're some witchy uses for sea glass??
Thinking about seaglass, try to describe it. Most of the time, sea glass is foggy. It is definitely smooth, being tumbled in the ocean among rocks and sand. It’s certainly been through a lot to look the way it does. Think about color too, and how this could impact any correspondences–is it blue, green, brown, white, clear? What does it make you think of when you hold it?
Some uses I can think of:
Foggy sea glass:
a curse to interfere with the target’s ability to think clearly.
a glamour that masks your intentions, or certain physical characteristics that you want to keep hidden.
scrying
Smooth:
use it similar to a “worry stone” [external link]
a spell to “smooth over” a rough situation or relationship
added to any spell to make your desired outcome manifest “smoothly”
Green:
in money spells
in fertility spells
in abundance spells
Blue:
in calming spells
in healing spells
in water-related spells or to invoke the element of water
White:
in purification/cleansing spells
in moon magic
in peace spells
in protection spells
Etc & Etc
With some wire wrapping, you can turn a piece of sea glass into a piece of jewelry to make a charm that you can wear. Or just slip it into your pocket.
Or you can just add it to a spell bottle or charm bag.
A quick google search brought up quite a few results of others exploring this idea as well.
He sends DMs about being a married pastor who seeks a Luciferian/Satanist to introduce him to her religion (or not her - he messages people of any gender). Obviously, by means of sex. After being blocked, he comes back from another account. I have received his messages several times despite saying him to fuck off, he has also misgendered me (even though nowhere in my bio I have stated I'm AFAB, what's the deal?). This time, he messaged me on my sideblog.
I heavily encourage you to block, report, and share every of his new accounts here so people can block him and be safe.
In this post they are promoting a book they are selling. Order of the Nine Angles is a nazi cult linked to acts of terror.
On their shop website, they're also selling things from Tempel ov Blood, another fascist group.
The last addition from that person's posts:
i'm most familiar with Greco-Roman deities so i'll use them for examples, but feel free to ask me about a specific deity! which Greco-Roman deity you should work according to your birth chart indications
say "good morning" / "good night" - this is not only out of respect but developing a habit to include them more and more in day to day life
talk to them - whether you're expressing gratitude, praying, asking for advice, or even just talking to them about your day, this will show you are thinking about them and looking up to them. if you feel uncomfortable or can't talk out loud, a journal works just as well
write to them - speaking or journaling, writing is an art form they will appreciate. make journal entries to them, write them a poem or a song. it doesn't have be a fancy, even just phrases here and there will make a huge difference
document your experiences - after spending time with them, write down how it went. keep track of what they seem to like, what they tell you, even small details that don't seem to stick out because when you go back and look, they might stick out then or you might notice patterns
share your food - giving your deity a small portion of your food each time you eat is a way to communicate your honor and respect to them, and also learn what foods/drinks they enjoy
divination - this is more than just tarot cards! there's other forms of cartomancy, there's dowsing, numerology, etc. i personally use astrology <3
connect with their energy - doing activities that appeal to your deity regularly with strengthen your connection with them. for example, my deities are Diana/Artemis and Luna/Selene, so I spend a lot of time in nature, especially at night under the moonlight
research them in great detail - to get to know your deity, learn everything there is to know: names and epithets, symbols, attributes (plants trees, stones, animals, planets, week days, etc.) domains, family, popular stories and myths
cook a full meal - you can decide on a meal that is associated with them (like steak for Mars/Ares) but you don't have to, either way just dedicating time and energy to make an entire meal just for them will say a lot
altar - this is probably what you will hear the most, but don't feel heavy pressure. it doesn't have to be huge, fancy, or expensive; you can start out with literally just a candle and some leaves. slowly over time decorate and personalize it to your and your deity's liking
offerings - this is more than just sharing your food with them, it's actually giving something solely to them. have you ever been in the mood for a certain food even though you weren't hungry at all? that might be them hinting that they want it. gifts that you think they'd like or you felt called to get, including crafts you made yourself
share your worship - i want to say this is 100% not a necessity, so don't feel stressed if there is no one you can talk to about your deity work. i have no one to talk to about it, but i share freely on this blog and am trying to make friends online who i can share with! not only is sharing a way to show respect and love for them, but others can give you ideas of devotion and connection
going digital is a great way to worship and connect with your deity, especially if you cannot be open about it
make a playlist - include songs that remind you of them or that you'd think they'd like that involve their domains or stories/myths
art - literally any form of art they will appreciate. music like singing or songwriting, drawing, painting, sculpture, literature like reading books they'd like or writing stories, poems, songs, etc., dancing, theater or acting, or literally anything else. you can get specific, like learning an instrument for Apollo
exploring - exploring areas you think they'd like or just new areas in general. you might find points of interest they'd enjoy (like crossroads for Hecate), or see/hear their sacred animals, or find things that coincide with their stories/attributes/symbols
spending time with them through hobbies - the best way i can describe this is through examples: going to parties/celebrating for Bacchus/Dionysus, cleaning and taking care of your home for Vesta/Hestia, gardening for Ceres/Demeter or Proserpina/Persephone, taking care of the ocean for Neptune/Poseidon, the list goes on and on. anything that involves their domain
pinterest board - kinda self explanatory, making a pinterest board (or a physical picture board/wall if you prefer) with images of your deity and their symbols/attributes. here's mine
phone background - setting your phone background as an image or your deity is not only a sign of honor and respect, but will help you develop the habit of thinking of them regularly. can also spark conversation with others without being direct about your worship!
see the first post here
wear devotional jewelry (typically a symbol that is associated with them, but can be anything as long as you designate it)
create something with them/for them (poetry, drawings, cook or bake, build something, etc)
research their myths
create playlists for them and listen to those playlists
do you like sandbox games? create a shrine, temple, altar, etc for your deities in those games (like minecraft, terraria, stardew valley, etc)
go on a walk outside and invite them with you
thank them. thank them for anything and everything
take care of yourself as a devotion to them. if you want to specify, you could do this with a deity that is more closely related to self care (my mind immediately goes to Aphrodite or Hera), but any deity would appreciate you taking care of yourself; they love you
set aside a day of the week to be “their” day and spend time with them, give them offerings, etc that day (some deities are associated with days of the week; apollo for sunday, artemis for monday, thor and zeus for thursday, to name a few)
be creative! above all, the gods like to see that you put thought and effort into your worship. it doesn’t have to be grand or expensive to be thoughtful, just heartfelt. may the gods be with you <3
