Thank the gods/goddesses

[Calli]

I thought it would be fun to have a more lighthearted thread where we can give thanks to our gods/goddesses for whatever we want to.

[Calli]

Thank you, Aphrodite, for always being there, for giving me the tasks that help me grow, for the lessons that I come away from them with, and for comforting me when things don't work out, despite our best efforts, due to someone else's free will. I have loved you for as long as I can remember, and am so incredibly grateful that you love me.

Thank you, Daddy, for always having my back. For always watching over me and mine, and keeping us safe. You've taught me to be strong. You've taught me to stand up for myself and those who I am responsible for. I love you, Daddy.

[~Belladonna~]

I thank Domnu for making today at Martins Pond Nature Reserve so wonderfully Magick in every sense of the word. I couldn't differentiate between the physical and the astral and that was truly amazing :)
Thank You!

[Brightshores]

Thank you, Aphrodite, for today. It's been wonderful - please let it continue. :)

Thank you for the joy of the little things.
Thank you for a small glimpse of a larger view.
Thank you for perspective.
Thank you for tears and laughter.
Thank you for love.

Thanks to all my deities, for being there for me through the good and bad times. Thank you for the love you all have given me and the strength to change what I need to.

[Incendia]

Thank you, Apollon, for being "close" when I needed you the most.

Thank you, Poseidon, for your kindness.

May many temples be built in your name, may many voices sing your praises.

[Cunae]

Thank you, Lord, for creating a spectacular universe and giving us the shining gem among your planets... and for the beautiful yellow butterfly that tickled me on the nose this afternoon!

[Calli]

I guess I have more thanking to do.

Thank you, Set, for all of the many, many changes in my life this year, not the least of which was turning my health around. And thank you in advance for those to come, because I know you're not finished with my life yet.

Thank you, Hestia, for your guidance in turning my home around. Following your advice has kept me balanced.

And thank you, Lakshmi, for coming into my life just today, and blessing it with your gifts. I hope to come to know you better.

[Whitewolf]

Thank you, Set, for all of the changes I'm going through and for being there for me.

[Minuet]

Thank you Ares or as I call you Daddy for making sure that my head was cooled off when it needed to be. Thank you for the perspective you have given me and the challenges you have helped me over come. Thank you for reminding me how to be a good wife and to be understanding when needed. thank you for watching over my family and letting us be strong when needed and filling in the gaps when we need you to. You are awesome and I love you Daddy.

Thank you Hestia for going to my sister and helping her. You are my treasured one and I hold your counsel close to my heart. You always seem to have the answer to what I need and all I have to do is ask. Thank you for reminding me how valuable family is and not to take them for granted. Thank you for watching over me and helping give me a shove when needed. Thank you for helping to tame my touge when it wanted to be sharp and you reminded me of how much h=words can truly hurt.

Thank you Isis for keeping an eye on my son and for helping him through a tough time.

Thank you Thor for reminding my son that he is yours and that he needs to stand strong and be patient as well.

Thank you Aphrodite for watching over my family and for being a presence of calm in the midst of the storms. We have needed your loveing care this week and I have felt yours abundantly.

[Heart of All]

Thanks for the jobs, Freyja!

[Incendia]

Thank you, Poseidon, for your directness and persistence. You are a truly wonderful and magnificent god.

Io Basileus!

[Avalanche]

Thank you Loki for the reminder to get my skates sharpened. Would have been nice to get that during the warmup or at least some other time when I wasn't on a breakaway, but hey, who needs to score a goal anyway?

Next time, can I get a puck to the face?

[Calli]

Thank you, Set, and any and all of you who participated, for taking me the final steps in my transformation today. I truly feel like a different person after my experience today. I'm so grateful!

[aluokaloo]

Thanks Aphrodite for a loving sexy wonderful boyfriend and a long wonderful relationship! :hearteyes:

Thank you my beloved Fenris for the comfort that you gave me and the no nonsese, wordless wisdom to keep going no matter what!

Thanks to the Anemos for the sweet cool gusty day, without them this day would be miserably hot!

[Calli]

I'm really enjoying reading all your responses. Keep 'em coming.

[Lavender Rainflower]

Thank you OYA for giving me the strength to face all the changes you are sending my way, many you continue to assist me as I work through these transformations.
Thank you OSHUN for showing me such beauty and love, many I stay in your loving embrace.

[Kcheez]

Thank you Athena for your blessings and patience when I needed them most, and for sticking with me when my faith waned.

Thank you "Maria" for your kind words and advice, and of course for always being there with me. Sorry for my slowness. XP

[Toki Wartooth]

Thank you, Apollo, for providing me guidance and help, whether it be through divination or in keeping calm in stressful situations.

Thank you, Mercury, for your light-spirited influence in my life, and for working so well with your (half-)brother Apollo to guide and help me.

Thank you, Shiva, for inspiring within me a sense of calm and focus.

Thank you, Odin (or ... is it Wotan?), for allowing me to feel your presence.

Thank you, Samael, for not lopping my head off. Yet.

Hey Toki (it's been ages since we've talked :)), but, mind if I ask, is Samael the same Samael from Judaism (the Angel of Death, sometimes, seen as Lilith's Consort, and ruler of the demonic realm (and, yet, also, part of YHWH's court))?.

[Calli]

I think I spoke too soon, using the word "final." What was I thinking?

Thank you, Set, for keeping me focused and holding me up when I was questioning down to the very core of my being. I will hang on. I see today that your counsel was good.

[Toki Wartooth]

Hey Toki (it's been ages since we've talked :)), but, mind if I ask, is Samael the same Samael from Judaism (the Angel of Death, sometimes, seen as Lilith's Consort, and ruler of the demonic realm (and, yet, also, part of YHWH's court))?.

Yes, though there is a lot of conjecture on what/who he is, even in terms of potential mates and such. I have my own feelings, but a lot of sources (particularly rabbis) don't agree or have slightly different "versions" of him. Every time I describe him to someone, I have to say, "SOME say..." "SOME believe..." "SOME think..." &c. It's a bit annoying, but it's to make sure I got everyone covered and give people as full of an image as possible. But, saying all that all the time drives me nuts. :alol:



To continue on that vein, actually --

Thank you, Samael, in all honesty, for simply being you. It's taken me a long time to grapple with the things you stand for or are associated with, and technically I'm far from done. But, thank you for the experiences.

[Voyager]

Thank you Goddess for guiding me and being there for me.

Thank you Morrighan for giving me great weather when it is important.

Thank you Hekate, Demeter, Artemis for your wisdom and guidance

Thank you God for strength when I need it most.

[aluokaloo]

i thank the Gods for a good home and caring family.

Thank you Fenris for the little reminder You know what I'm talking about ;)

Thank you Poseidon for all Your wonders

Thank You Athena for helping me find another path to help accomplish my goals.

[Toki Wartooth]

I thank Mercury for bringing me dreams and bringing me quick and long sleep.

I thank Apollo that I am often able to understand my own dreams and then act on the messages.

I thank Shiva for his compassion and understanding, and for his never turning away from me.

I thank Samael for reaching out to me, even if I don't recognize it, or even if I become afraid. I thank him for his attention and, to a degree, his care. I thank him for the lessons he has been teaching me and for anything that he may teach me in the future.

I thank Odin for allowing me to approach him, and for his not being offended by my approaches.

[kristadb]

Thank you, Pan, for helping me rediscover my fun side even though this is a busy time for me.

Thank you, Artemis, for deciding that I should have a fruitful garden this year.

[Whitewolf]

Thank you Bast, for being understanding and there for me through the hard times.

Freya, Thank you for being open to me and connecting with me.

Thanks Eileithyia for the safe arrival of little Markus! :) May he and his mother recover smoothly.

[Miss.Annabelle]

Good thread, Calli!

I would love to thank Isis for giving my sister the gift of a baby! I'm so excited to be a first time aunt!

I would like to thank Aphrodite for helping me and my boyfriend's relationship and keeping our love strong through this rough time.

And to the god and goddess for keeping me healthy and taking care of my family and friends. Thank you for helping get food back on our table. :)

[kristadb]

I would like to thank Artemis and Pan for giving me the strength and control during a meeting when the director accused me of not doing my job simply because we have been unable to fill a position. They gave me the strength to tell her to offer proof or shut up before making an ass of herself, and the control to not quit on the spot for having my work ethic questioned.

[lioncastle]

Aphrodite for bringing me love
Osun for protection and for my beautiful African dogs
Ma'at for kicking my lazy butt and keeping my heart light

Atremis for understanding.

[la tortuga]

Thank you, Frigg and Eir, for my beautiful godson arriving safely and he and mom recovering well from an infection after birth!

[Whitewolf]

Odin, Thank you for being open to me and allowing me to connect with you.

[Toki Wartooth]

Thank you, Apollo, for all your guidance and comforting presence. Thank you for allowing me to share your presence and to hear your voice.

Thank you, Mercury, for sticking by me, and for giving me some much-needed spirit-boosting. Thank you for letting me feel your somehow-controlled spontaneity and free spiritedness.

[HiccupingBat]

Sometimes I think I'm way too lucky to be alive and where I am today. Thanks to whoever/whatever the hell is up there watching over me, I don't say it enough but when I do I mean it.

[Incendia]

Thank you, Apollo, for your support and "friendship" during this trying time. Ie!

[Voyager]
