Are you a witch who has just experienced something infuriating, or perhaps being aggro as fuck is just your state of being?
MAKE FUCKING BREAD.
IT’S CHEAP, EASY, AND ENDS IN YOU HAVING FOOD IN YOUR FACE, WHICH WILL CURE YOU OF YOUR AGGRO IF IT IS CAUSED BY BEING HANGRY. IT’S BASICALLY THE BEST WAY TO BEAT THE SHIT OUT OF SOMETHING LEGALLY.
HOLY COW I LOVE KNEADING.
STICK HERBS IN YOUR BREAD FOR CALMING.
DRAW A SIGIL ON IT WHILE IT PROVES TO TRANSFER YOUR ANGER AWAY FROM YOU.
HOLY SHIT I LOVE MAKING BREAD.
Can we get some basic bread recipes for the witch who has never made bread before?
YOU FUCKING BET WE CAN.
I TOTALLY SUCK AT BAKING, BUT EVEN MY CONFUSED ASS WAS ABLE TO EXECUTE THIS EASY BREAD RECIPE LIKE A BOOOSSSSSS.
I have some questions … would like the pagan community on tumblr to please help me out with them?
1) What is a godphone, specifically? I have searched the tag and received conflicting answers. It seems to be someone who can hear their God speak, but whether it requires visions of the Gods or how often you can speak with Them, I have no idea.
2) Is being a godphone rare? Do most people not hear their Gods?
3) Are godphones related to oracles or patrons or other such fancy words? (I personally have never received any “prophecies” from my God, although I can hear Him.)
1) “Godphone” is basically shorthand for “means of directly communicating with deities”. The term started as a joke and found its way into the community at large who take it way too seriously than they should. You don’t necessarily have to hear the deities actually speak to have a godphone. In fact, “godphone” is misleading, most people don’t actually hear their deities speaking, some communicate in images or impressions that the human has to “translate” into speech. Others see it more as a “god radio” where they need to “tune in” just right to get anything from their deities.
2) I would say that it’s rare to have people who hear their deities in the way you would think when you hear the term “godphone” and those of us without godphones are much more common, the Internet just makes it seem like everyone and their dog always has crystal clear communications with deities and that this is a “normal” thing for everyone who worships deities to have.
3) Oracles are one way of communicating with deities, patron deities are deities who are associated with, say, particular professions or interests, The term patron is also used to indicate a deity who supports and protects you (you might say “patronizes” you in the old sense of a noble or other important person acting as a patron for, say, an artist) you usually have a closer relationship with a patron than other deities, but you can have close relationships with a deity and not consider them a patron, and sometimes it’s a matter of “While I’m X so my patron is Y” and you might not have a close relationship with this deity at all. As an aside, the feminine form is “patroness” not “matron” which means something different, although the word “patron” is accepted as gender neutral nowadays.
