Heka Against a Wayward Heart

Broken hearted? Feel like you cannot control your emotions or like your heart has turned away from you? I created this heka to soothe and strengthen the connection between the khet, or physical body, and the ib, or heart.

As with all heka, I recommend cleansing yourself beforehand. Speak the words aloud, and allow your magic and strength to be behind each word.

Words to be said by the magician:

"Let my heart not stand against me, Let it not be repulsed from it's desires. Let my heart stand with you, O' Gods! Let my heart be strengthened in me, O' Gods!

Let my heart not speak against me, Let it no longer cause me pain. Let my heart stand with you, O' Gods! Let my heart stand with me, O' Gods!

The magician may also be inclined to give offerings to their ib, to please it and give it strength. In this, they may approach it as a separate entity, to be pacified. I recommend offering water before presenting additional offerings, to cool the ib first. Food offerings may be 'reverted' and eaten, and any others may be set aside in an altar or shrine space.

Words to be said by the magician during offerings:

"O my heart, O' my ib, I bring you water, May it cool you, may it purify you! May you stand with me once more!

O' my heart, O' my ib, I bring you [name of offerings], May it please you, may it bring you joy! May you stand with me once more!"

[apiswitchcraft]

before you ask "are the gods mad at me?" THINK:

have you...

1. killed or maimed someone

2. killed or maimed an animal for purposes other than consuming/processing it

3. knowingly and purposefully hurled vile obscenities or insults at any god or gods

4. made it a life goal to be a terrible person

5. been a terf

IF YOU SAID NO TO ALL OF THESE QUESTIONS then girl you're fine go have a dr. pepper

Calling all pagans and practitioners!

I have been wanting to do more devotional poetry so if you’d like a poem or prayer about your specific’s deity or practice, send me your request in asks or the comments of this post!

All practices and paths are welcome to request <3

REQUESTS ARE OPEN

Still dealing with these people in my house... Hopefully the witches I just paid on Etsy can do something because apparently me having trauma and doing the magick on my own isn't the answer.. (I say, losing some faith in myself since nothing I've done has removed these people from my house though I don't want to go harder while they're here just to get rid of them because it might hit us all.)

😐 I'm honestly fed up and will probably spend the day being as such because I'm actually on the verge of losing my mind.

If they don't do it idk what will. I might have to just take a risk and put us all on the streets and make us start over from scratch if nothing changes in January and for the long term...

Sometimes things don’t work out. Deities won’t get angry if your not able to worship/work with them.

Deity Identification Help

Recently, I’ve been feeling that a deity has been reaching out to me, but I wasn’t quite sure who. I decided to do a deity spread I found and here were the results:

Here is the spread I used:

I think I got wonderful and distinct results, but I need some help identifying which goddess this may be. Are there any pagans that can help me? Any other advice or input on my results would be immensely appreciated! 🫶

Heqat Rebirth Heka

Heqat is often viewed as a frog headed goddess who presides over birth (as well as rebirth). She sits with Khnum at His potters wheel, and breathes life into His creation. She is also present at birth, and acts as a midwife to the Netjeru.

In terms of rebirth and recreation, She is often tied to the resurrection of Wesir and the dead. She is there for us in death, just as She is at birth.

This heka focuses on the rebirth and recreation aspect, to have Her assistance in facilitating change and growth within our lives. When approaching Her to do this heka, I would recommend having a clear idea of what rebirth and change means to you, and how you wish for it to come in your life (whether it is in terms of personal, professional, or other matters).

As with all heka, I recommend cleansing yourself beforehand. Speak the words aloud, and allow your magic and strength to be behind each word.

The magician approaches their shrine with offerings and a glass of cool water. They call upon Heqat, and present the offerings while speaking aloud.

Words to be said:

"O' Heqat, Mistress of Creation, You who were present at my birth, I come to Thee as Thy beloved child!

O' Heqat, Great Mother, You who are constant in my life, I come to Thee for Thy assistance!

I have brought [name of offerings], May they please You, May they nourish You, May You hear my prayers now!"

The magician then focuses on rebirth and recreation. They pray to Heqat, touching on what they need assistance with, while praising and thanking Her for Her help in such matters.

They then take the glass of water, and hold it above or within the shrine.

Words to be said:

"From the waters of the Nun, creation was born. From the waters of the Nun, all is created. I too was created and born within the Nun, at the hand of Heqat.

She has brought me forth, born anew! She has brought me forth, in strength and prosperity! She leads me now, to my future! She leads me now, to my desires!"

The magician may now 'revert', or drink the water. The offerings may sit upon the shrine if nonperishable, or 'reverted' as well if a perishable food item.

Secret Magical Gift Swap 2024/2025 - Sign-Ups Open! 🔮🌿🍄

Hi everyone! ✨

After a break of 6 years, the Secret Magical Gift Swap is back!

The aim of the swap is to create friendships within the pagan/witchcraft/heathenry/other spiritual community and spread the gift of giving through a postal Secret Santa style event where you send a gift and receive one in return. It's tailored to witches, pagans, heathens, non-religious and religious people alike, Kemetics, Hellenics, polytheists of all sorts, those interested in nature paths, those that follow folk religions, astrologers and others on a path of alternative practice or magic.

In the past this was an annual event but we are now back with a plan to keep the Swaps going a few times a year, more than likely quarterly, with one for every season.

To start this new chapter off, I decided to create the first Swap now, around the very season of giving. However, with the way the financial situation is around the world right now and many post offices being closed for the end of December and start of January, this first Swap will go on from now until the end of January, with a short break in February before we jump into the second Secret Magical Gift Swap!

🍄✨ How to Join The SMGS 24/25:

Read the event rules here and here.

Fill out the Sign-Up form here.

Reblog this post to spread the word!

Join our Discord server if you have a Discord account, for which an invite will be sent to you some time after joining the Swap (this may take time as I'm currently setting up the server :'D)

If you have any questions, please send an ask or message to here or to the organizer, @fernsinthemist The deadline for joining the Swap is November 28th!

Participants will be paired up and sent out within a few days after the deadline.

Enjoy the Swap, everyone!

I am also looking for help! If you are interested in helping to organize this Swap or future Swaps, please fill out this form to apply for a moderator role!

How do you identify spiritually? since you’re a cuban who practices the magical arts

I was born and raised on the island of Cuba and later grew up in the diaspora. As a reflection of my cultural heritage and personal identity, I primarily identify as a Bruja, My family adheres to Catholicism and holds a deep belief in Jesus and the Catholic saints, as is common among many individuals of Cuban heritage. however In addition to these practices, they also practice a variety of other spiritual traditions/practices that were part of my upbringing. However, I do not fully align myself with all aspects of my family's practices for several personal reasons.

I identify as practicing dual faith sometimes, as my work involves engaging with various spirits and deities from both my cultural background and beyond(which I mean open practices that aren’t part of my culture) For instance, I have a connection with Atabey and Itiba Kaubaba, who are ancestral spirits of nature from my lineage. Additionally, I also honor/work with Hellenic and Kemetic deities, such as Hera and Auset.

My spiritual journey may evolve over time, but I will always identify deeply as a Bruja. This designation resonates with me on multiple levels, as it not only connects me to my cultural heritage but also honors my ancestors and my birthplace, Cuba.
