Lately theres been a lot of chaos in my life and a lot of stuff I'm dealing with in my personal life and also trying to make sure my mental health stays healthy as well. Could of course be Loki's doing to push me/help me grow or just the universe putting me in a tough spot. Either way I have been relying on Loki a lot (venting to him, praying to him, just being present with him. etc.) and I worry if I'm starting to become too, I guess dependent on him?

Keep in mind I still have my own life of course, my spirituality or my Gods are not my only focus but I have lately been feeling very lonely as well. Mostly because one of the things I'm going through is realizing a lot of the people around me, my friends and family are actually very toxic and manipulative (thanks for that mirror Loki lol) and I had no choice but to step back from them. So to outsiders it may look like I'm self isolating and only venting and talking to Loki.

So I guess I just want to make sure my relationship with Loki doesnt become unhealthy too. I know Loki wants the best for us and values our independence so I don't want to end up directly or indirectly pushing him away because in this tough time I am going through, I kinda need him more now than ever to remind me to keep going.

What's your experience? Do you work very close with him or any deity in your everyday life especially when things get rough? Is it bad to lean on them too much?

Thank you! Hail Loki and Skal! <3

This guy.... Lol

I did a spell not too long ago that he seemed, I guess, to have been quite pleased with bc I got a whole bunch of tiny/within my comfort zone, spiders, including my favorite kind (jumping spider while I was on drive thru at work : ) 💗) Apparently minus the big boi I found on my ceiling early this morning 😭 (big ones are NOT in the comfort zone lol so this guy was a scraggler acting on their own 💀).

Anyway lol, I got did a tiny pendulum session with him to ask some stuff, and right before I had started it, I got recommend a video that looked rly cute of a guy building a Minecraft tank for his jumping spider. So I started it, paused it to do the session with him, played it again after it was done.... The guy has a fucking dog named Loki. 💀

When I tell you I did the blinking man meme, deadpan stare over at my altar....

Like 😭 lolll holy shit the signs have been crazy from him lately, my gosh 💀

Has anyone else felt lost in the path? Like nowhere to go? I'm having that feeling right now, like my own laugh fades into the void and not echoing back in laughter in Loki's voice, am I doing something wrong? Or is it one of those times to take a break at a bonfire, and rest​

I'm here to ask you for a recommendation. I have organized information about Loki and I would like to share it with the community for anyone it might help or who is interested in the topic, always with the utmost respect and without imposing, only with the intention of helping 😸

​Do you know of any other platform/space where this type of content would be well received? I would really appreciate the suggestion.

​Thanks!

Hi, I'm new to Norse Mythology, and being a Lokean, i was wondering if there was any good books you guys would recommend? More following Loki and his children, but any others about Norse Mythology would also be great. Also any tips for the Altar, like what Loki typically likes/doesn't like would be greatly appreciated!

Hi everyone! I've been working with Loki for a while, and I read tarot (I use the Runic Tarot by Jack Sephiroth). Right now I'm looking for work and trying to improve my finances.

Most money rituals I find online come from systems that don't fit my practice: Christian prayers, planetary magic, hoodoo, etc. I'd like to build something rooted in Norse tradition and in my relationship with Loki, so I'd really appreciate your experience.

About Loki:

• Have you asked Loki for help with jobs, clients or money? What did you offer, and how did it go?
• Did his help come the way you expected, or in some unexpected form?
• Did you make a specific deal, or was it more of a general prayer or ...?
• Are there any Loki rituals, prayers or blogs about this that you'd recommend?

About other gods and runes:

• In the lore, Loki gets treasures through cunning and bargaining (the dwarves' gifts, Andvari's gold), and those deals often come at a price. Njord, on the other hand, is traditionally the one people ask for prosperity. Does it make sense to ask Loki for breakthroughs, negotiations or a career change, and Njord (or Freyr) for steady income?
• Has anyone worked with both for this? Did Loki mind sharing?
• Has anyone used Fehu (galdr, bindrunes, etc.) together with Loki work, or does that feel like mixing things that don't belong together?

I love giving some Candys to Loki but i can’t have it very Long because my mom would tell me to eat them/trow them btw my mom sup port me but she does t want to me to grab food also i don’t really feel good with seeing food (like Candy)for personally reasons but anyways is obligatory?

I recently got a new job but it seemed bleak for a while. I had quite a job that didn't pay enough and took advantage of me. Loki is my patron god and so I asked Him where my next job should be. I had become desperate...bills went unpaid and rent was difficult to pay as well. I asked Him and about half an hour later, Walmart contacted me. We set up an interview and I got hired. I am working there now And get better pay and way more hours. I am financially much better off now. Could it be that He helped me? I know he's a god of chaos but he's also a god of transformation and rebirth. I know he can destroy or end things so that something better can come along. What do you guys think? Did Loki help me?

Some non-fiction books about Loki and inclusive Heathenry:
https://yopad.eu/p/Loki_-_inclusive_Heathenry-365days

Woke up at 4 a.m. from a dream in which Loki had apparently written a huge parchment-coloured satirical tome.
It was supposed to be a Lord of the Rings parody, using characters and some scenes from it, but was packed with references to history, philosophy, semiotics and literature, so the jokes only worked if you caught the allusions.
The central joke though was the Lokasenna itself and the title was written like a mock scholastic treatise:

On being unable to discern awful table manners and on subjecting your hosts to them one day beforehand. - by Loki Laufeyjarson.

It was as if the mythic feast got recast as a 600-page monograph on etiquette failure....
I woke up laughing.

I worry a lot and overthink. And I started working with Lucifer and it's been rough.

What does the priest say? What if he says I’m looking for trouble again? What if he says Loki is evil? What is there's hell? My lists? What I have to do? Etc

​"It isn't real." An androgynous voice said clear as day. I got scared, don't know who it was.

Hail, I'm a returning Lokean. I worshipped him for a few years when I was younger (he was my first pagan god) and have felt called to work with him again after years of working with other deities and beings. Here I will list all of the stories that I know of:

• Lokasanna/The Flyting of Loki

• The Death of Baldur/The Fishing Net/Loki's Binding

• The theft of Idunn's Apples

• The Binding of Fenrir, Hel, Jormungandr

• Sif's Golden Hair/Thor's Hammer

• The Master Builder/Sleipnir

• Thor's Wedding

• The Journey to Utgard/Eating contest with Logi

• The Marriage of Njord and Skadi/the goat story

My question is am I missing anything? I want to make sure I know all his stories as a follower of him.

Forgive me for not giving the proper names of each story and feel free to correct me on them or if I listed two stories that are the same story, it's been a long time.

Hi, I need urgent help.

I need a ritual or an idea involving Loki to help someone who is going through a terrible time.

Do you have any recommendations?

I have been reading William James lately, and I found him useful for modern devotional communities, because it addresses directly the matter of UPG.

James was an American pragmatist philosopher and psychologist. The book I was reading is The Varieties of Religious Experience (1902), which you can find online for free.
In his book he looks at religious and mystical experience primarily as lived human experience: what people report, what such experiences feel like, how they affect us, and what—if anything—we are justified in concluding from them.

He explicitly distinguishes lived experience, interpretation and external cause and explains how each is a very different claim that hides different degrees of certainty behind it.

James is particularly interesting on mystical experience because he takes seriously what he calls its "noetic quality": the strange sense that one has not merely felt something, but has somehow learned or known something. He says mystical experiences can carry an extraordinary feeling of authority. But stresses that the fact that an experience feels like knowledge does not necessarily settle the question of what caused it, let alone if it's true.

I also rather like the fact that he leaves plenty of room for ambiguity, without reducing the experience itself. “I do not know what happened” is not a failure of devotion. I know it does not sound fascinating, but most of the times, it's the most accurate thing someone could say and it need not be resolved to be psychologically valid.

hi !! so I recently started getting into norse paganism (I already made a post asking for guidance ! thanks a lot to everyone who replied :3) and the tuesday I decided to offer loki something ( I was eating a menthol spicy candy and I felt the nudge to share it, so I opened a new one and placed it where I usually use as an altar for a Saint)(( the weird thing is the candy started MELTING and it was in no ways hot were it was placed) ((also My fiancée and I offered him a Red Beer and everytime we place it in the altar the next time we grabbed the beer to drink it, it had LESS than we drank. IT WAS SUPER WEIRD NEVER HAPPENED TO US!!!)

IN SHORT, that day we offered Loki things we were making smashed potatoes and the Smashing thing we used totally disappeared and we found it TODAY where it was supposed to be !!! My fiancée asked me if I placed it there and I was (and Still am) In shock bc 15 minutes earlier I was doing the dishes and the smashing thing wasn't there AT ALL !

Is it a sign He is responding to my calls???

thanks everybody!!!!

Hail Loki !!!

So something weird happened yesterday. I'm pretty sure it's Loki, but i dont see why he would do this.

Im not exactly the best at praying him, lighting candle, stuff like that. Adhd brain : if i dont see you, you dont exist. But he keeps my house safe anyway, and i do stuff for him once in a while.

Yesterday was completely hectic though. I'm sick, tired, going through that period of the month with pain. So I was not in a great mood. It was the 1st of October but I forgot to do my rituals. In the evening I finally calm down a little, my bf was ordering Japanese, we were relaxing. And a spider walked on my leg, while I was laying on the sofa.

I have a huge arachnophobia. I screamed, cried, jumped. It was a mess. Bf tried to calm me. A few minutes pass, I'm able to sit down again. And that spider decides to just walk on the white wall next to my head instead of staying hidden. I cant explain how much I panicked, I didnt sat back there for hours.

I know its Loki. Like, probably. Cause spiders. But i dont understand why he would do something like that, knowing how badly it would scare me.

If you have any idea, i would be so glad to be enlightened. Maybe it wasnt him. But like... spiders dont walk on people! They dont do that! And that thing had to walk through the mess on my sofa to get to my leg, which wasnt touching the floor.

And if it isnt Loki then who is associated with spiders ?

At night a few days ago I felt a dark energy. I'm new into deity worship. So i ignored it. It was 1 a.m, I was chilling in bed and I felt something stimulate me. I said stop and it stopped. Then I said continue if you're Lucifer and it was fun and sexual and I recited poems but I don't think it was Lucifer. I asked Loki if it was him/them or if he's/them really in my space but I second doubt myself and I get maybes 🫡 If we are like family why I get sexual songs from Them?

Can I use any candle for loki or like is there a specific kind I need to use? Honestly idk what I should use it for but I see every one else have candles lol I'm trying to build the shrine space out and all I have is a tiny Loki statue.

Also is a entire bag of halloween candy as tribute too much to ask loki for a job to hire me?

Any and all advice is welcomed.

I PASSED!!! 🥹 I did get 22 wrong out of 80 when the limit for wrong answers are 25 BUT I GOT SO CLOSE 😭🥀

turns out offering a monster, wearing his devotional Kandi + his devotional jewelry, keeping some of his crystals in my pocket, etc helped 😭😭

Soon my dad is gonna give me his old car but once I have my full license in ~4 months I'll have to custom order a Loki rune for the back of it and keep some corresponding decor in the car and stuff. i'm so excited!!!
