Well you can either wait in limbo or get on with your life.


Here is your reading:

--- ---

10 of cups: You know what you want, so you should not settle for less. You want happily ever after, family etc.

Seven of Swords: Don't allow others to take advantage of you. State your convictions and don't be browbeaten into doing what you don't want to do. Mistrust and secrecy are more likely to lead to isolation than to security. Although you need to guard against underhanded people, this suspicion can lead to paranoia if carried too far.

Knight of Cups: Be Prepared to meet someone new, a romantic and perhaps a bit unpractical one.

As far as the other problems, be very alert. The seven of swords came up twice. It say to take steps to protect your possessions; someone may be trying to rip you off. There could be a daring act afoot designed to surprise or trick you with convoluted schemes and impulsive actions. Be prudent and evasive. To reach your objective rely on your intellect and diplomacy. Nothing is accomplished by aggression.

Keep your strategy secret, play your cards close to your chest. Don't give out any personal information because you are in danger of being cheated or deceived. Stay clear of cults or other groups that prey on those most in need of spiritual comfort.

it's funny that you bring this up because I've already been feeling this way. I've been trying to pinpoint who the "backstabber" is but I've been unable to as of yet. There is one out there with my name on the knife tho. I can feel it.

Welcome to the Wonderful World of Witchcraft and Shamanism




Welcome to the Witch's world
where magick wands of often twirled
and spells are cast and circles hurled
and dreams of love become unfurled

The Witch's art is quite the craft
in spite of those who think it's daft
though Witch's suffered in their wrath
they've survived the aftermath

The Witch's way is quite alive
in modern times it's been revived
so don't ignore or be deprived
of ancient wisdom that's survived

Don't be fooled by pious creeds
self-righteous fools who plant their seeds
for evil lurks within their deeds
and all they sow are bigot weeds

So join our thread of loving ways
and add your fervor to the blaze
post your thoughts for days and days
to give the Goddess all you praise







~~~
"Religion is for people who are afraid of going to hell.
Spirituality is for people who have already been there."

Im doing this to give this thread a bump. I did the sucubus last time which is the female sexual demon and here is the male counterpart, the incubus.

An incubus (plural incubi) is a demon in male form supposed to lie upon sleepers, especially women, in order to have sexual intercourse with them, according to a number of mythological and legendary traditions. Its female counterpart is the succubus. An incubus may pursue sexual relations with a woman in order to father a child, as in the legend of Merlin, and some sources indicate that it may be identified by its unnaturally cold penis. huh Religious tradition holds that repeated intercourse with an incubus or succubus may result in the deterioration of health, or even death.

The word is derived from the Latin preposition in, which in this case means on top of, and cubo, which is Latin for "I lie". The word incubo translates into "I lie on top".

A number of secular explanations have been offered for the origin of the incubus legends. They involve the medieval preoccupation with sin, especially sexual sins of women. Victims may have been experiencing waking dreams or sleep paralysis. Also, nocturnal arousal, orgasm or nocturnal emission could be explained by the idea of creatures causing an otherwise guilt-producing and self-conscious behavior.

Purported victims of incubi could have been the victims of sexual assault by a real person. Rapists may have attributed the rapes of sleeping women to demons in order to escape punishment. A friend or relative may have assaulted the victim in her sleep. The victims and, in some cases the clergy, may have found it easier to explain the attack as supernatural rather than confront the idea that the attack came from someone in a position of trust.

One of the earliest mentions of an incubus comes from Mesopotamia on the Sumerian kings' list, ca. 2400, where the hero Gilgamesh's father is listed as Lilu (Lila). It is said that Lilu disturbs and seduces women in their sleep, while Lilitu, a female demon, appears to men in their erotic dreams. Two other corresponding demons appear as well: Ardat lili, who visits men by night and begets ghostly children from them, and Irdu lili, who is known as a male counterpart to Ardat lili and visits women by night and begets from them. These demons were originally storm demons, but they eventually became regarded as night demons due to mistaken etymology.

Incubi and succubi were said by some not to be different sexes, but the same demons able to change their sex. A succubus would be able to sleep with a man and collect his sperm, and then transform into an incubus and use that seed on women. Their offspring were thought to be supernatural in many cases, even if the actual genetic material originally came from humans.

Though many tales claim that the incubus is bisexual, others indicate that it is strictly heterosexual and finds attacking a male victim either unpleasant or detrimental. There are also numerous stories involving the attempted exorcism of incubi or succubi who have taken refuge in, respectively, the bodies of men or women.

Incubi are sometimes said to be able to conceive children. The half-human offspring of such a union is sometimes referred to as a cambion. The most famous legend of such a case includes that of Merlin, the famous wizard from Arthurian legend.

According to the Malleus Maleficarum, exorcism is one of the five ways to overcome the attacks of Incubi, the others being Sacramental Confession, the Sign of the Cross (or recital of the Angelic Salutation), moving the afflicted to another location, and by excommunication of the attacking entity, "which is perhaps the same as exorcism." On the other hand, the Franciscan friar Ludovico Maria Sinistrari stated that incubi "do not obey exorcists, have no dread of exorcisms, show no reverence for holy things, at the approach of which they are not in the least overawed."

Thor is late Germanic Pagan though. You have studied prior to that haven’t you? He's like the equivalent of their Zeus.
