:fedi: Puka III :static_heart:Hi <a href="https://pagan.plus/tags/Fedicoven" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Fedicoven</a>, I'm working on my new "Monster Zine" and making it as some kind of offering to Loki. At least to the version of Loki that lives in my imaginary world, he has been my dreamworld spiritual guide for many years already, and has become a character of many of the stories I imagine and sometimes even write.<a href="https://pagan.plus/tags/Art" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Art</a> <a href="https://pagan.plus/tags/FediArt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FediArt</a> <a href="https://pagan.plus/tags/MastoArt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MastoArt</a> <a href="https://pagan.plus/tags/Zine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Zine</a> <a href="https://pagan.plus/tags/Trickster" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Trickster</a>

SiinSo, I might pop in from time to time after all as things get going. I appreciate your patience as I navigate all of this: there are a lot of things on my mind related to the way I'd like to live and the reality of how I should live right now given the choices available. But enough of that for now. The first newsletter has been sent out to members, and I'd like to share it here as well for anyone interested to read. "A Treatise on Ascendent Ritual"This work is participatory. It is demanding of discipline, of belief, of preparation. It highlights shortcomings, shortcuts, and insecurity. The results you achieve are based on the effort you put in: in knowing thyself, in forging the thought patterns that work towards your will, in curating mindfulness and careful attentiveness. This is magick: this is what makes it real.There is an industry, a very profitable one, that would like you to believe that magick just happens for a price. That if only you pay the right price, you can bypass the work of magick. They frame the inner work required as healing, but false healing: healing that doesn’t require you to look inward too deeply, healing that looks like lush palm trees and swimming pools and sound baths, healing that comes automatically from hearing the right frequency, taking the right substance, or buying the right clothing. There are practitioners that will take your money and tell you that all you need to do to manifest prosperity is to buy their book, their workshop, their jewelry, their incense, their candles. To outsource your power to them. Their will is not teaching or guidance, because they are the new priesthood: interpreting energy and doctrine for you in the ways that benefit them.<a href="https://sigillosacro.com/this-kind-of-work-is-earned/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://sigillosacro.com/this-kind-of-work-is-earned/</a><a href="https://pagan.plus/tags/Ghost" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Ghost</a> <a href="https://pagan.plus/tags/Magick" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Magick</a> <a href="https://pagan.plus/tags/Witchcraft" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Witchcraft</a> <a href="https://pagan.plus/tags/Pagan" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Pagan</a> <a href="https://pagan.plus/tags/FediCoven" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FediCoven</a> <a href="https://pagan.plus/tags/Occult" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Occult</a>

:jan:‍:abreath:🌬️:dandelion:<a href="https://pagan.plus/tags/fedicoven" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#fedicoven</a> Q20 What are your thoughts on the ethics of love potions and spellsI'm really curious about <a href="https://pagan.plus/tags/lovePotions" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#lovePotions</a> in the historical context of power imbalances and women being disempowered at various periods through history. I even wonder if some "love potions" were poisons viewed through romantization of our modern era. :love_potion: :Poisen:

Cat<a href="https://pagan.plus/tags/fedicoven" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#fedicoven</a> Q20 What are your thoughts on the ethics of love potions and spells?I think people largely overestimate their influence when it comes to spellwork. Real, true love is under the purview of the gods, you can't make someone love you. Also, it's not like The Craft where you get an obsessive stalker, that's silly.You can maybe initially get some to like you and be attracted to you, but you can do that without magick too. On first dates, most people dress up nice and act on their best behavior. It's manipulation, sure, but one that we consider acceptable in our culture. Everyone wants to put their best face forward and we all expect it.But the thing is, that illusion has to fall and eventually, the spell is broken. Because in order for real love to happen, a person has to know the *real* you.TLDR: there are no ethics because love spells don't actually work.

Lydia Vvinters<a href="https://mastodon.nl/tags/fedicoven" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#fedicoven</a> Q20 What are your thoughts on the ethics of love potions and spells?I get requests for love potions this time of year and have to explain this doesn't work with the way I view love and even if it did, I would not create it. Love is cosmic. Meaning, you can illuminate and embrace, but you cannot force it. All I can do is aid in seeing what is already there. Like parting the clouds to show the stars.

Bianco Titanio<a href="https://pagan.plus/tags/Imbolc" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Imbolc</a> is not a thing outside of Celtic traditions. This is a liminal time in the Wheel of the Year: new life is struggling against <a href="https://pagan.plus/tags/chaos" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#chaos</a>. During <a href="https://pagan.plus/tags/Carnival" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Carnival</a> , we let the demons from the dying year loose one last time. We channel them through masks. At the end of the Carnival, we sentence them to death by fire. From their ashes, new life will be born again."Jean-Claude Schmitt shows that medieval idioms used several words to designate the “mask,” each one of them meaning both the object itself and the “supernatural powers” that were associated to the ritual and the artistic use of masks: larva, persona, masca in medieval Latin, or, in vulgar languages, “faulx visage,” “fol visage,” “sot visage” in French, or visor/ vizor in English. (...)
