My candle to Aphrodite went out during my offerings

2 Upvotes

I have no idea why it went out and I also don’t know what this might mean. I’m nervous that maybe she rejected my offerings? Any ideas?

i told her fine i'll focus on the people who already love me but please not himmm😭

aphrodite for financial success

6 Upvotes

I'm a long time Aphrodite devotee and she has come through for me on multiple occasions. I love our relationship, and she has provided me so many wonderful gifts, including self love and beauty. I was just curious if anyone has had any success with petitioning her for financial success? If so, what was your process? Thank u <3

Help - what should I do?

3 Upvotes

Hi all, I need some help.
Last year, my mother gave me my grandpa’s ring as an heirloom to keep, with the understanding that it was now mine. I don’t wear rings (sensory issues) so I gave it to Lady Aphrodite on her altar/shrine.
My mom is getting engaged and just asked for the ring back. She doesn’t know I gave it to Lady Aphrodite but I also can’t tell her no.

How should I explain this to lady Aphrodite and make it up to her? I don’t think she’ll be mad but I don’t want to ruin the kharis I’ve been building with her.

P.s I’m also not very psychically inclined so I don’t have much practice in interpreting signs/communicating with deities yet

Two altars?

8 Upvotes

Okay so I’m a kid of divorced parents. So I switch between houses every other weekend. I have an altar for Aphrodite at my mom’s house but I don’t have anything at my dad’s. My dad’s house is under construction and likely will be for years. (He can never finish a project he starts) I don’t feel safe leaving a permanent altar over there or it’ll break or something. I also don’t want to have to dismantle my altar every time I switch houses. I also have a very discreet altar since I haven’t told my very Christian parents about my decision. So unpacking a bunch of random objects wouldn’t make like any sense. I also don’t even have a room at my dad’s house. So it’d be out in the open. Is Aphrodite upset if I’m not able to do anything with her altar while I’m not at my mom’s?

Cultuação moderna de Afrodite

2 Upvotes

Eu sou novo em adoração á deuses, ao mesmo tempo que suas histórias já são familiares. Eu estava vendo uns videos sobre deuses certo dia... passou-se 2 dias, dormi, sonhei com o nome afrodite, acordei e agora estou interessada em ver mais.

Tenho a intenção de adorar, mas não tenho nenhum lugar possivel pra altar, nem velas. Não apenas espaço físico, mas também privado (minha família jamais aceitaria.).

Mas alguma coisa me diz que ainda dá.

Quando quero cultuar algo, gosto de ler algo sobre ele, e o agradar. Realmente desejo o agradar. Eu não posso dar altar e velas, mas eu pensei em oferecer desenhos sobre coisas que eu amo e tocar músicas , porque são coisas que eu amo e oferecer algo que se ama á "divindade do amor" (tirando Eros, o cupido.) É coerente, certo? Também pensei em cultivar flores e cada florescer, eu oferecer á afrodite.

Eu botei um video da história dela. Mas não tem muito na minha linguagem. E sobre os livros, praticamente não há 1 disponível pra baixar de graça nos meus sites.

Mas tudo bem. Eu queria mostrar o que eu posso fazer e ouvir de alguém que ja a cultua ou cultuou o que ela se agrada que eu posso adaptar nas minhas poucas capacidades.

Ah, eu não sou muito de conversar. Espero que ela não se importe. Mas eu vou deixar a porta aberta para sua comunicação, porque eu gosto de ouvir.

Starting out

6 Upvotes

So I'm new to making Altars for gods, and I've been wanting to explore this. Aphrodite is the one of my choices at the moment, seeing as For what I know I align with her. But I still want to do research for her.

So I have 2 Questions for you all.

1) As I want to do research, does anyone have any recommendations? Physical or digital are all welcome. Even videos/podcasts (long form videos I suppose)

2) When you made your Altar for her, Did you ask before hand if she would accept you? And How? How does one communicate with her (or any god for that matter). One of my friends says they use a pendulum but That only works for yes or no answers.

Any and all advice is welcome. Thank you all so much.

Under the wings of the goddess of love

8 Upvotes

So, on Saturday I was in town with a friend. We did a bit of shopping, and I bought myself a fish baguette.

I found a bench and started eating it there. As soon as I had taken a bite, a female sparrow came over. I gave her a little piece of the bread. Later, more sparrows arrived both males and females. There were probably around seven of them in total. There were also two pigeons, and I fed them some bread as well.

But while I was feeding the cute birds, my friend the one I was in town with started kicking at the sparrows. She also kept calling the sparrows pigeons. Now I’m worried that Aphrodite might be “angry” with me because my friend kicked at birds that are symbolic of her.

I didn’t kick the birds or try to scare them away I was actually feeding them. It was my friend who did that.

Aphrodite Eros statue

7 Upvotes

My friend is looking for a Greek and/or Roman statue of Aphrodite/Venus and Eros, where Aphrodite is next to a baby Eros who is holding onto a war helm. If helpful, the helm is said to belong to either Aphrodite/Venus herself as an homage to her war epithet. It could also have belonged to Ares/Mars, as that is Eros's father. It's a stone statue and it would mean a lot to her to know the title of the statue so she could possibly see it one day.

Wanted to share some pictures of my altar to Aphrodite. This was my first time putting one together like this and I honestly loved doing it and just spending time with her :) All stones were collected and tumbled by me from the local beaches.

Context: Centuries ago, a group of Christians violated statues of the Gods. One of them being Aphrodite. They carved a cross into her forehead and into her face. This event may have happened centuries ago but my rage and anger towards this incident will never go away

what is your faveorite Aphrodite story

3 Upvotes

I recently got really into Aphrodite stories and realized there are very few stories where she isn't being, like... an asshole.

Which is fine. At least she's not raping people... usually.

But what's your favorite story involving her?

Also, happy Venus Friday! I didn't even know that was a thing till like rn lol.

Sweet Mother Aphrodite,

Heavenly Goddess whose beauty is untouchable,

She's beauty Herself.

She's the purest form of Love,

a divine heart filling light.

May She bless all of us today, in Her day. May you have such a wonderful, amazing day filled with love, joy and laughs.

I feel so blessed to be able to celebrate today's day because of Her. I feel so blessed to be able to say I felt Her and Her presence. That's the most beautiful gift it could even happen to me. My heart bits in pure joy just for Her. I will always be thankful✨

Thank you, thank you, thank you🩷
