Priestess of Aphrodite on Bluesky!
I am not the best at social media - It’s always better to directly follow my blog (and join our Modern Temple of Aphrodite Discord Community if you are interested!). Despite this, I have made the foray into Bluesky and I am quite liking it so far! If you’re on that platform, let’s connect!
Love Will Win
Whatever the next four years may bring, and I sincerely hope it is not as bad as we are dreading, I do know one thing: Love will win.
Devotions to Aphrodite: Nail Art
One of the most consistent devotions to Aphrodite that I have practiced for the past (almost!) two years is nail painting/art. I’ve never been good at taking care of my hands. Even before things got really bad and I got my official OCD diagnosis, I washed them way too much. Finding the joyful self-care of painting my nails as a devotional activity for Aphrodite has helped me to treat my hands better.
Connecting with Aphrodite: Cultivating a Relationship with the Goddess
Once you have made space for Aphrodite in your life and invited Her in, it is time to focus on the work of deepening your relationship with Her. Cultivating a relationship with the Goddess involves declaring your intentions, opening a dialogue, listening, practicing reciprocity, and staying dedicated and persistent.
Affirmations: I Trust in My Joy
I thought it would be nice to start off the new year with an affirmation: I trust in my joy. Do you currently trust in your joy? What is your relationship to joy and pleasure? Do you embrace joy or shy away from it? How does joy show up in your life? How does it impact the decisions you make and how you show up in the world?
A Ritual of Offering and Transmutation
This ritual of Offering and Transmutation includes a guided meditation, where you will work with Aphrodite to process your emotions and move into the future with hope and joy, no matter what life throws your way.
Join the Modern Temple of Aphrodite Community on Discord!
I'm excited to announce the virtual Modern Temple of Aphrodite community, hosted on Discord! Over the years, I have received countless emails from spiritual seekers expressing the desire for community with other people who work with Aphrodite. This inspired me to create an online temple community where people from a variety of spiritual paths and experience levels can come together. It is my hope that together we will cultivate a supportive and vibrant community of devotees where we can share our experiences, ask questions and learn from each other, and bask in the joy that is Aphrodite.
Connecting with Aphrodite: A Ritual Template – COMPLETE GUIDE
I hope you have enjoyed this series on a Ritual Template for your spiritual practice! Since the posts have been spread out across a span of time and aren’t necessarily one after the other, I thought it might be helpful to compile them into one comprehensive guide.
Connecting with Aphrodite: A Ritual Template – Follow-Through
There’s one more crucial step that needs to happen to integrate the ritual you just performed with the rest of your life, and that’s: Follow-Through. The essence of Follow-Through is to integrate and enact - We take the “spiritual” ritual experience and apply it to our “mundane” life (all while knowing there is no true distinction between these two categories).
