Worshipping A Pop Villain Can Be Akin To Worshipping Darker Gods. Deities Like Set Are Often Demonized

Worshipping a Pop Villain can be akin to worshipping darker gods. Deities like Set are often demonized because some stories show them opposed to the "good" gods. Many of them are gods of Chaos or Destruction like Set or Shiva. or trickster gods like Loki, or sometimes chthonic deities like Hades, who were feared so much that their names were rarely uttered. There are also entities that it is widely accepted as something you should not worship, like A/p/e/p, who are meant to be symbols of all the negativity in the world. Pop Villains can be seen in a similar way. Some of them are misunderstood and can teach many lessons in their stories and mannerisms. They can be stories of perseverance or tragedy. But there are also beings in Pop Culture like the Snake that should maybe be avoided, or at least approached with caution. In any case, whether working with a trickster god, a demon, or a Disney villain, there's a balance to be had to not delve too deeply into the entity's darker spheres, but that doesn't mean that many of their traits cannot be celebrated or learned from.

Reminder that just because a character is a villain doesn’t mean you CANT work with them. Don’t let people deter you from something you’re interested in and most certainly do NOT let fear hold you back. You could be missing an opportunity for growth or adventure tossing aside those who others have driven you away from. If it speaks to you and is significant, I mean hell if it sparks the fire to your hearth light that bitch up. Give it a chance and if it doesn’t go well pack up and boot them out there’s tons of things to dive into and explore, in this case explore a new entity that invokes curiosity. or don't, ultimately it's your choice and your practice.

(Of course when I say these things they are within reason step away from something if you find it’s harming you mentally or having any sort of negative effects. As well as the obvious which is don’t culturally appropriate but considering I’m speaking of PC work I wasn’t sure whether to mention that part or not)

Quilava’s Flames of Intimidation Spell (Pokemon Inspired)

“ Before battle, it turns its back on its opponent to demonstrate how ferociously its fire blazes.” -Pokedex Entry

A glamour enchantment spell to make you look more ferocious and intimidating to others.

Quilavas Flames Of Intimidation Spell (Pokemon Inspired)

You Will Need:

🔥 Red Candle 🔥 Rosemary 🔥 Bay Leaf 🔥 Red Marker 🔥 Sigil for Intimidation or the word “intimidate” 🔥 Burn safe bowl or plate 🔥 Piece of Jewelry to enchant

Steps:

🔥 Light your red candle near your fire safe bowl

🔥 In your bowl add a small amount of dried rosemary to its bottom

🔥 On your bay leaf using your red marker draw your sigil or write the word “intimidate” on it. “Like the pokemon of fire Quilava, I wish to be surrounded in flames of red, to show others I am not one to pester, and keep them at bay with dread.” Then kiss your bay leaf focusing on this desire. Visualize yourself surrounded by a red fiery aura as others keep their distance from you.

🔥 Light your bay leaf with the candle and carefully place it into your bowl of dried rosemary. Watch it burn until only ash is left

🔥 Take your piece of jewelry and lay it into the ashes once they cool enough to be safe to do this. Visualize the source of your fiery aura being this piece of jewelry. “Surround me with flames and fire, to intimidate others is my desire!” repeat this as necessary.

🔥 Once you are satisfied brush off the ashes left on your piece of jewelry carefully. Blow out your candle to end the spell

🔥 You may store these ashes to use for other spells such as making black salt if you desire though charge them near the red candle for a few minutes longer if you wish to do this. Or you can dispose of them (properly)

Note: Keep salt or sand near you in case the fire flares up during the burning process. Make sure you are practicing proper fire safety.

Knitting Spell (for protection)

This poem/spell came to me earlier while I was cooking, and I hurried to write it down. I knit, but I think anyone who knits, crochets, embroiders or does some other kind of fibercraft can use this. I tried not to use language specific to knitting. I would envision the person the handmade item is intended for, wearing the thing, its protection forming a web around them, as you chant:

May this garment be as armor

a shield against the woes of life.

Bring peace and steadiness of mind,

snatch good fortune into your loops

even as I weave you.

Give him/her/them shelter from the winds

the biting rain and cold,

and bring him/her/them back, as day ends

to the warmth of home.

You could add a line or two, invoking a protective deity or spirit (especially one associated with crafts). I feel that it would be most effective or most appropriately used as you’re starting a project, though you can repeat the chant continuously and meditate on your loved one.
