Ave, divina

Aphrodite,

Amor et pulchritudo maxima,

Quae cunctas terras et maria regis,

Te mane invoco, te adoro.

O dea formosissima,

Quae in cordibus hominum habitat,

Da mihi pulchritudinem intus

et in exterius,

Ut splendorem tuum reflectam.

Per tuae gratiae potentiam,

Coniungo animam meam cum amore

et harmonia,

Ut mihi concedas verum amorem

in vita mea,

Et ut pacem et felicitatem semper teneam.

In tua praesentia,

O divina Venus,

Laetus et confidenter exsisto,

Meae vocis suavitatem dona,

Ut cunctos qui me audiunt afficiam.

O Aphrodite,

domina amoris,

Audi meam precatio matutinam,

Et benevolentiam tuam mihi impertire,

Ut omnes dies mei pleni sint dilectione

et gratia.

Amen.

English Translation:

Hail, divine Aphrodite,

Greatest of love and beauty,

Who reigns over all lands and seas,

I invoke you in the morning,

I adore you.

Oh most beautiful goddess,

Who dwells within the hearts of men,

Grant me beauty inside and out,

That I may reflect your radiance.

Through the power of your grace,

I unite my soul with love and harmony,

Grant me true love in my life,

And may I always hold peace

and happiness.

In your presence,

O divine Venus,

I exist joyfully and confidently,

Grant the sweetness of my voice,

That I may touch all who hear me.

O Aphrodite,

mistress of love,

Hear my morning prayer,

And bestow your benevolence upon me,

That all my days may be filled with love

and grace.

Amen.

I radiate love and kindness to all those around me.

I am confident and worthy of love.

I am open to receiving and giving love in all its forms.

My relationships are filled with love, respect, and harmony.

I am grateful for the love and beauty that surrounds me.

I embrace my sensuality and express it with love and respect.

Love is my guiding force, bringing joy and fulfillment into my life.

Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY EDGAR ALLEN POE

On This Dreary Day, We Hail

Beneath the raven's watchful gaze,

In shadowed halls and moonlit haze,

We mark the birth of one who wove

The haunting tapestries we love.

O Poe, of melancholy tongue,

Where grief and beauty intertwine,

Your tales of sorrow still are sung,

A dirge eternal, dark, divine.

From chamber doors to midnight drear,

Your echoes linger, sharp and clear.

The haunted hearts, the broken souls,

Still wander through your spectral scrolls.

A toast to you, with absinthe green,

To realms unseen, and dreams obscene.

Your name lives on, a ghostly chime,

Through ages deep, beyond all time.

So here we stand, this January day,

To honor you in our own way.Forevermore,

your shadow grows—

Happy Birthday, Edgar Poe.

You deserve a healthy love with someone who hears you, sees you, understands you, appreciates you, supports you, and loves you. Someone who is patient, communicates clearly, and creates a calm safe space to heal, grow, and bloom together. A love you don't have to heal from.

Staying in a relationship just because you love someone is not worth it. love is not all you need. Respect is what you need. Time is what you need. Reassurance is what you need. Happiness is what you need. A bestfriend is what you need.
