Fenrir: devotional acts + offerings + memes because why not (UPG). đș
Feeling angry is extremely valid and important. You can offer it, especially if you have anger issues. All strong emotions are an excellent offering! From anger, frustration, anxiety, everything is valid.
Triggers. Many of us have things that can trigger triggers, and we can give all that to the great wolf Fenrir. You don't need to justify it to give it to him, just do it. He'll understand.
Howl and growl. We've always been taught a lot about keeping our composure, and honestly, I don't give a shit. Bring out your inner savagery and allow yourself to walk on all fours, growl, howl when you're alone. Devour the meat on your plate, muss your hair and move like an animal in your room to the beat of a song like Welcome To The Jungle.
Dedicate the pain, the suffering. The pain of your muscles when you get a tattoo, the pain of your skin when you get a tattoo and the pain when you get a piercing. It can also be the pain of your traumas, the pain your inner child felt, anything is possible.
Donate to wolf protection centers, even adopt one where you donate money to take care of it! Do not keep it as a pet, of course.
Wear outfits, accesories, stuff in general, in black, brown, or earth-colored.
Practice self-care. He appreciates this very much.
BE YOURSELF. He was put in chains for expressing himself as he is. Do the same: be yourself, speak for yourself, express what you feel, your opinions, and stand up for those who cannot, either because they are shy, or because they are people who have a disability, for example people with paralysis.
Take trips to the mountains, or surround yourself with nature whenever you can. Listen to the sound of the rain, admire the color of the forest, its smells, everything.
Free yourself from your chains: go to therapy to heal everything you need to heal so you can free yourself more and more.
Be kind to stray animals. Leave food for stray dogs, water, etc. And if you can't, be kind to them, give them a smile, a cuddle, etc.
Offer him the anger or helplessness you feel in situations of injustice.
Offer him meat. If you don't eat meat, you can tell him without fear! You can offer him not to eat animals so that they do not suffer, it is also a beautiful offering. Thus, like him, they will not be tortured.
Offer him your trust. He was betrayed, so let him know that you will not. Place your hand on his mouth to let him know that you trust him completely.
Offer him your company. He is extremely lonely, locked up in a cave totally tied up and with a sword through his jaws. He loves to be accompanied.
A speed paint today! Is it actually a speedpaint when itâs not painting?
I think it's really easy for when people obtain a "seat of power" that they often become just like the people they disagree with in some fashion. It is why many kindreds often end up as shit, because the person lost their vision of what was truly important. They become obsessed with their own opinion as they attempt to lead people through their belief and even try to protect them against outside forces. On one hand, this is not a bad thing, but it can indeed lead to extremism if people do not practice mindfulness.
We are not perfect individuals. We all can make mistakes, even become prideful. That's what happens when we maintain a position of authority. Our sense of right and wrong becomes blurred as we then desire to seek solace in ignorance and refuse change and difference. Even the very well meaning people can become this way in time.
How this comes into play is through the belief of leading. No, we must not lead people, but rather merely say what we think. If we step ourselves down from a position of authority and put ourselves on equal footing with everyone around us, then it'll likely be better than not. Only by practicing humility can we even attempt to avoid the ignorance of pride.
I may be a heathen and speak my mind, but at the end of the day, I recognize everyone is an individual. You may be like me, or you may not. Either way, we are people with our own experiences and emotions. We have our own problems. The best thing we can do is recognize this. No one person is above anyone else.

When you only got a little space to work with but you make the most of it.
Full moons always bring a little extra joy to my heart.
Breathing. The simplest form of magic there is. Taking that moment to let go of the negative and breath in the positive. To absorb the powers and replenish yourself. Realize you shape your destiny.
I love my morning walks. I find such calmness and peace and sometimes i get to meet new friends along the way.
1. I feel disgusted about it.
2. I'm alright with them. It's a nuanced belief and I have no qualms with it.
3. I feel that it ranges from "Wow that's actually awesome" to "WTH I hate this shit."
4. I don't think people can get pregnant by spirits on Earth, but I do believe that sex with spirits can influence the inherent energy of your next child before birth.
5. A practice. Because, a religion, to me, is a set of beliefs with dogma. While witchcraft is a practice that only you define.
6. I hate him. But I can't deny he made an influence in modern day Wicca.
7. I'm fine with it. It's actually my gateway to alternative religions so I don't hate it. It has a soft spot in my heart.
8. I think nothing bad of it until it's regarded strictly to one sex and another, instead of being counterparts.
9. No, because I believe that although experience is very telling of skill, we can't deny that some beginners have powerful magic and can easily go toe-to-toe with some of the "experts".
10. I haven't done my research on him yet so no opinion.
11. I think it's a cool belief system.
12. Witchcraft has been around for so long I can say for certain yes it is political. We have bullshit terms like black and white magic that's just inherently racist, and I see that as political to bring down black and brown people for their versions of witchcraft, and then keeping the white people at the top. Also kings and queens have sorcerers in ancient times to keep the poor at bay. That's political in of itself.
13. Yes. Now is it wise? No.
14. I do believe the deities I talk to are different in terms of personality. I treat them as people.
15. Yes.
16. Oh I wish gods will strike them down.
17. I trust my intuition. Anything that sets of alarm bells in my head, I automatically don't fuck with.
18. Yes. I wish we had a clear division of different beliefs like the old days. Not to fight over them, but to become closer to the roots of our different beliefs.
19. Yes. Hindu does it, so why can't we?
20. I don't. More so because it doesn't tickle my curiosity.
21. I sent hate to a terf blog and a neonazi who were using paganism as a shield for their hate.
22. Yes.
23. Yes. I don't experience it because my traditional craft is nonexistent because of colinization, but I understand others are uncomfortable to have their beliefs basically fucked by another culture.
24. The supermarket.
25. Just claim to be and do your research.
26. Yes I am. I do the spells, research, and I teach.
27. Yes I am. Nothing can shake my beliefs unless my intuition tells me otherwise.
28. We go to an afterlife suitable to life we have lived.
29. It fulfills the calling I've had since young.
30. Expensive herbs and tools.
31. People with the Black Sun as their pinned post.
32. People don't respect each other's culture unless called out.
33. Both

Psa that your witchcraft is tailor made to you. You can obviously adopt practices from others that you like, but your craft is your own. It can be as messy or as organized as you need/want. It can be inconsistent as fuck, or scheduled. Never feel bad for the way you practice. Witchcraft is meant to be tailored to each individual
