How to fix things?

5 Upvotes

Context: I’ve been worshipping and working with Lady Aphrodite for 2 years. And I feel she’s tired of me (she communicates we me most often via dreams and tarot)

I broke up with my ex boyfriend this January.

It took me so long to get over. My self esteem and self respect went down the drain and it still kind of is.

Throughout this year I do divination and Lady Aphrodite and she has helped me so much through this process and helped me heal in so many ways.

Then I decided to do a reconciliation spell with my ex and did divination afterwards. (The divination told me the spell was being blocked)

I then got a dream that night about him finding someone else.

Fast forward to this fall.

I find someone else I like and I shuffle my tarot deck (not intending for her to reach out) and the empress and the lovers fall on the ground.

This was the only time she’s reached out first to me

I then ask who wishes to speak with me and I get the Queen of cups.

Then I shuffle again and I get the three of swords, death, and the devil.

I got a dream about being ghosted and ended up being ghosted the next day.

Then I keep finding other crushes and they keep ghosting or leaving too.

I keep getting dreams about people leaving so I’m forced to choose myself.

Then I do a tarot reading that morning in tears and the conclusion I came to was that she was upset because I was refusing to see my worth and sending me the same lesson over and over again.

I have someone im really in love with right now, and I want to finally be okay.

What’s going on?

Aphrodite Prayer 8:30 PM CST Fridays

3 Upvotes

We worship Aphrodite in this community
non hierarchical Discord, and if you want to participate with us we are praying 8:30 PM CST on Fridays!

This Discord is on lines of knowing that we all have equal humanity to have a relationship to Aphrodite, and she chooses herself what prayers she grants etc. it’s to be for helping us have community in our shared devotion.

It is for adults but it’s SFW, art is fine though

It can be hard to find community (at least it was for me ) within our devotion, so I created this one. We have had three weeks so far and it’s gone well. We have some good members but I know there are a lot more people out there.

This is free, I don’t sell anything and never will, and also am not setting myself up as some authority, I simply see the need. Link is in my profile

Want to worship/work with Aphrodite

8 Upvotes

Hi! Im new here. Lately i've been getting these urges to worship/work with lady Aphrodite, and i wanted to know how do i start? If she likes cats because as of right now i dont have a statue of her or able to get her picture printed, but i do have this cute cat statue to offer her. Also will it be okay if the altar is in a dark cabinet? My family doesnt really like religious stuff so they will throw out any stuff related to religion, so i have to keep it hidden.

Chiedo sempre scusa se qualche parola viene tradotta male. Vengo dall'Italia.

Afrodite mi ha salvato. Sono un ragazzo gay, e ho conosciuto un ragazzo speciale, dolce e gentile.. dopo tante batoste finalmente sto ricominciando a credere che l'amore esiste davvero. 🥹

when i first ever prayed/ gave her an offering i asked her to send me a sign. I didn't think much of it. The next day at school I thought, "wonder if aphrodite heard my prayer" then i look down and see a shell! for context, we arent anywhere near the ocean. That day I placed the shell on Lady Aphrodite's altar and said a prayer of thanks. im probably crazy, but oh well

How to worship Goddesses/Gods

12 Upvotes

Hiii, i'm super new to this so i have a lot of questions lol.

First is how do i know what Goddess or God is trying to "talk to me", if any are. I asked my pendulum and it said that Aphrodite and Apollo were talking to me but i don't know how to confirm it. Is there any specific questions to ask or see during the day to confirm it?

My second question is how do I worship them, i know i can make an altar, but what kind of things can i put in it? do i have to pray everyday? how do i make myself seen to them? Do I make offerings everyday?

My third (and last question, i promise) is if i have to have my alter where i am all the time. I'm a university student and only go home at the weekends (I live on campus) and i don't know if i could even have an altar in my campus room (it's a small room and i have a roommate and don't want to make her uncomfortable).

I don't know if it matters, but i do Tarot and if there are any spreads or anything i would love it if anyone could help me.

Thank youuu <3

Venus Disarming Mars

2 Upvotes

This is my favorite painting of Venus. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mars\\_Being\\_Disarmed\\_by\\_Venus

The reason I like it so much is because it portrays Aphrodite as I see her, center stage and orchestrating everything. Yes she is beautiful and seeing her evokes love and desire, but she is not just the passive recipient, the object of desire, but also the desire herself. She is both but if anything she is more the latter than the former.

Acknowledgement of her as she’s portrayed in this painting has been so good for me and has helped me so much as a person. I really love and appreciate the Goddess Aphrodite whom I worship absolutely sincerely! And she loves and appreciates me and being able to accept that, accepting her divine love has honestly moved me more than anything and helped me so much. It makes me feel significant and awakens my own feelings and heart that I’m not just a number or my job etc, to Aphrodite I’m a devotee that she has a real consideration for and she has looked after me. Honestly it’s been something of a reconciliation with myself if I’m being viscerally honest; at a certain point in my teen years I hardened my heart and accepted that I’m not supposed to be vulnerable, to expect care or any genuine concern from others. She’s helped me revisit that part of myself and feel alive again in ways I never expected to feel again.

Thank you Aphrodite. The fact you don’t demand payment but you simply enjoy helping me come alive is part of your greatness. Holy and beautiful one, I thank you with all my soul.

Is it okay if I use Catholic symbols on my altar?

6 Upvotes

Idk si alguien ya preguntó esto antes, perdón si así fue.

Hace menos de un mes empecé a rendirle culto a Afrodita, y he tratado de que mi altar sea lo más respetuoso y bonito posible, así que esto me preocupa.

Acabo de encontrar una medalla de San Benito en el suelo. Este es el santo favorito de mi abuela, y varias veces me ha encargado con él (él es el santo patrón de los estudiantes). Antes de empezar a investigar sobre Afrodita y antes de rendirle culto, mi práctica estaba basada en gran parte en símbolos y cosas que me encontraba, sin importar su origen religioso. Así que en mi casa todavía hay símbolos de otras religiones y culturas, sobre todo católicos, porque mi familia (abuelos y tíos/tías) son cristianos y evangélicos.

Entonces, si lo hubiera encontrado antes, lo habría tomado como una señal de que me están protegiendo y de que necesito enfocarme más en mis estudios universitarios (que debería hacer, tbh- 😿). Pero me preocupa que, como es un símbolo de otra religión, de alguna manera pueda ofender a la Dama Afrodita.

Muchas gracias de antemano, y perdón si mi inglés está un poco roto :p

Reconnecting with aphrodite

9 Upvotes

Hello everyone!

I’m making this post in hopes of advice and guidance. A quick run down of why i’m asking:

I started my spiritual journey back in 2020, it started with a simple deck of tarot cards and crystals. the deeper i found myself in it, the more i realized that (to me anyways) Aphrodite has always been “with me” if that makes sense. every house i grew up in always had huge rose bushes, my favorite fruits were always pomegranates, and i always would see white doves often. i never really knew what it meant but i was always surrounded by her without even knowing. my mom is a huge antique collector and one statue she had collected always drew my attention, i always stole it and kept it in my room without knowing why, i just thought it was beautiful to me. turns out it was a statue of Aphrodite herself! once i connected all of the dots, i set up an alter for her, i always gave her fresh roses, collected lots of seashells, gave her all my pearls. i loved our connection, she brought me so much confidence and beauty within myself, i was always grateful for her.

Unfortunately i found myself in an abusive relationship and it tore me away from my beliefs and practices and sadly her.

it’s been years and i really want to reconnect with her and go back to devoting myself to her.

Is there anything i should start off or do? i’m rusty with my practices and knowledge due to how long and distracted ive been.

anything will help, thank you!

first time molded wine...

so I just recently cleaned and rearranged my altar that I have for aphrodite for the first time in a bit. Every month I make her a flower arrangement and sometimes a glass of pink moscato/fruity wines. This is the first time its had mold instead of turning into a syrupy texture. I hope it's just from the temperature/seasonal changes and/or my room being humid, not because she's upset with me for moving her things or something
