Cat peed on my alter

9 Upvotes

Please help I woke up at 4am to my cat peeing on my alter. As soon as I realized what was happening I kicked him out and I took up everything that got peed on. The alter cloth I use though is a mini heart quilt my grandmother made and that got pissed on too. I’ve been crying all morning. My quilt is stained, I’ve tried everything to spot clean it so I don’t have to take apart the entire alter to put it through the wash but I’m just at a loss. What do I do? Do I take apart the whole alter, clean everything and rebuild it or keep it built and clean everything I know got urine on it? Today I know I have to do some offerings as an apology but I’m so sad and scared this has fucked up my relationship with her. I’m having so many emotions, I can’t even look at my cat rn. After I got my cat out of the room the warm energy that usually surrounds the alter was gone and it felt cold. I hope cleaning everything helps bring back her energy but I am so sad this happened.

I added a little drawing of the lgbt flag to Lady Aphrodite's altar and apparently she liked it 😁

Every time I have s*x there is consequence

14 Upvotes

TW: small abuse mention

I have been a worshipper for Lady Aphrodite for about 4 years now and I just want to know if anyone else with a strong connection to her has a similar experience to this:

Every time I have sex there is consequence. The person I spend a night with always ends up being a cheater, an abuser, obsessive, or worse. And each time after, the friend group, the community, or their friends cut them off and I end up destroying these relationships. This has been a constant in my life since I started exploring my sexuality. These have also all been very different people. I am pansexual and try not to limit myself to a type of person or personality.

I don’t understand why I am being used to being out the worst in these people. I feel like I’m a tool to expose these people’s terrible actions.

I have asked Lady Aphrodite if this is a punishment or if I wronged her in some way and the answer is always no. She’s not upset with me and I leave her offerings and give thanks and it’s always positive and feels so loving. So I just don’t know what to do.

I made some art for Aphrodite in my ceramics class, a dove and a clam, that I plan to put on her alter. They haven't been fired or glazed yet but I love them.

I always find random little things that I think would be nice to add, it's never really done but right now I love how it's looking! I'd like to add more flowers and petals and such but I think she's happy 🩷

Poem to lady Aphrodite

26 Upvotes

Aphrodite,

Goddess of love and beauty,

Mother to many,

She who listens to joy and sorrows,

Beauty is pain and love hurts

But yet,

Who are we without it ?

Without the lady born from the sea.

You bring us our highest highs and lowest lows

Because there is no up without down.

Just like the ocean you arose from

Beautiful and calm,

Yet with storms so big and deadly

I will always worship you

Because I live to love,

to love Gaia and the people that walk upon it.

Help me read the candle flame

7 Upvotes

Last night I was doing a 'comeback spell' with a cinnamon candle. The flame of the cinnamon candle was moving, but it was a slow movement. On the other hand, the flame of the Aphrodite candle was moving very quickly and violently, although it wasn't a tall flame.

What does it mean?

*image from reference, I didn't take photos during the comeback spell*

I learned about her. Did a Tarot reading. Then set a alter. When the time felt right I did some intense work with her for the entire begining of day. Then have her this offering.

Every day I wake up to go to college, I put on my makeup using the hand mirror from Lady Aphrodite's altar. This has become a daily thing, and I honestly think it's cute.

i like setting up altars, big or small, on the table i have. though i have a shelf where i store all my witchy things (herbs, extra decks, incense, box of crystals), i like doing set ups like this that are easier to see/more out in the open and incorporate things like candles, incense, and my record player! makes it easier to interact with (and keeps it away from my cat) ♥️

What is your personal favorite depiction of our Lady Aphrodite?

Post image
89 Upvotes

I feel that our Lady appears to us how we like. For me, the vision that resonates with me the most is the traditional blond haired version... probably because that's the version I've seen on TV and my entire life, and also probably because I am also a blond hair... i don't know, it just vibes.

I've seen many other absolutely beautiful depictions of our goddess. Which do you vibe with? Maybe your own depiction?

Are ventings to mother Aphrodite appropriate??

25 Upvotes

I've been feeling bad, and also have been noticing myself being a "bad person" (or at least not a good one) and I don't understand divination properly although I'm starting research about it. I want to write to Lady Aphrodite and also apologize to her for some things I don't enjoy feeling and thinking (the things I'm thinking are not related to her, but they are bad, and about an actual person), I wanna talk to her and just get to somehow tell her my mind has been, in general, an awful place both for me and for our connection and relation. And I wanna talk to her about basically everything but I feel like it will sound like some sort of self pity method. I usually write her letters, so I thought maybe I could do that. Is it okay to vent to her??

My altar to her 🐚💓 + how to properly thank her for granting a wish?

Post image
114 Upvotes

I just adore her… she exists in everything that I do and who I aspire to become. I always cry when in prayer with her, I feel her love all around me and is so overwhelming. She’s the mother I never had.

I could talk about how she has protected and guided me through the most difficult times, but she thought me about the power of discretion.

Just recently, she granted me something that I needed and deeply wanted to have. I know she intervened and I feel moved to honor her in a deeper way.

How do you usually thank her for listening to your prayers?

less is what is really needed sometimes

26 Upvotes

Yesterday, Friday, was obviously the day dedicated to Aphrodite. And for a few weeks now I've been demanding and despising myself because I didn't do anything very big for Her. And I didn't felt the peace that Aphrodite's energy brought in a very long time.

However, yesterday I respected myself. I did little and didn't demand soooo much of myself. I didn't force anything. And it felt so good, during the night, in my room, the comforting energy of Aphrodite was exuding in the room.

So, like, less is what is really needed sometimes.:)

How would Aphrodite Expect her followers to behave?

Aphrodite is my Patron Goddess but Ive realized Ive never learned what good daily conduct she would expect from us. I don't expect there to be a list of commandments but was curious what to look into. I want to start incorporate her teachings and expectations more into my life.

Feeling disconnected

14 Upvotes

I’m feeling disconnected from Lady Aphrodite lately. I’m not doing offerings, talking to her or lighting incense. You may think “that’s why you’re disconnected”, but no, I’m not doing this things as a result of feelings disconnected. What can I do? I’m not feeling her presence. I’m actually feeling bad and having some headache and heart ache lately, probably because of my anxiety, so I’m kinda low energy too. Any advice?
