"In The Reciprocal System Of Such Charis Relations, Favor Implies Favor; Any Divine Charis Must Be Linked

Hellenic Pagan magic tip #1

Put the gorgoneion (gorgon’s head) on your grimoires, books, desks, altars, shrines, doorways, etc. You may sculpt one or simply draw one to seek protection. The Gorgon’s gaze will keep away negative spirits and dangers that seek to harm you. 

Hi could you please make a post about devotional acts for anubis?

Ways of Honouring and Worshipping Anubis

( thank you for your patience ❤ )

As with most deities, researching them is a great form of worship! I've found this one goes a particularly long way with Egyptian deities

The number 9

Beer, wine or preferably strong alcohol like rum

Bread was a traditional Kemetic offering

Water (cold)

Frankincense, myrrh, cedarwood and kyphi incense

The colour black! Gold is also associated with Anubis

Cypress and Cypress oil

Tigers eye, hematite and obsidian

Keys!

Star imagery

Some say he enjoys spicy foods, spices and dark chocolate

Learn his names/epithets and their origins: Anpu (to decay), Yinepu, Inpew, "The First of the Westerners", "Lord of the Sacred Land", "Master of Secrets", "Who Is Sacred Upon His Mountain", "The Right Hand of Osiris". And many more

Do your shadow work (this can mean going to therapy)

Visit cemeteries

Visit museums with Egyptian and Mummy exhibits

Reflect on your thoughts and feelings about death

Offerings related to mummification! Like mummified statues and figurines

He's also fond of dog related items! Such as dog toys, dog collars, spending time with pets etc

Foster some doggos! Or donate to rescue shelters, anything you can to help take care of dogs (the Sacred animal of Anubis)

Do protection work with him or in honour of him! Anubis was a divine protector

A statue of him!!

Wear a mask or simply have one on his altar

Visit cemeteries and treat the spirits there with kindness, leave them libations and offerings too

Help guide and care for others such as helping the homeless, donating to shelters and helping orphaned or homeless kids

Ankhs/Ankh imagery

Some different herbs and their magickal uses

Just so you know, these aren’t all the magickal herbs out there. These are just ones I have written down in my grimoire and that I typically use.

Sea Salt: Purification and cleansing. (I like to sprinkle some at my doorway and windowsills).

Sage: Purification, banishing negative energies, and consecrating magickal tools and spaces. (This is an herb that I highly recommend all witches have in their possession).

Black Pepper: Banishing negativity, warding off evil, and protection.

Thyme: Invigorates the user and helps them move on from something that may be holding them back. Good for getting over losses.

Rosemary: Cleansing, purifying, and deals with matters of the heart.

Chamomile: Attracts money, luck, and helps reverse hexes.

Bay Leaves: Psychic matters and divination, success, money, and making wishes/intentions.

Basil: Domestic harmony, home protection, purifying, and warding off negative influences. (I’ve actually used this around my own home before. I’d say it works).

Parsley: Divination, psychic advancement, and protection.

Cinnamon: High levels of spirituality, psychic ability, and works in matters of lust and love. (This is a personal favorite of mine).

Cloves: Drive away negativity, cleansing, and bringing prosperity.

Ginger: Adds strength to any magickal working and can draw in new experiences. 

Oregano: Joy, strength, vitality, and energy.

Peppermint: Cleansing, peaceful sleep, bringing about change, and abundance.

Spearmint: Healing, sleep protection, and vitality. (I’ve found that combining this with peppermint really helps me get to sleep).

Poppy Seeds: Heightened awareness, luck, and helps with insomnia. 

Cayenne Pepper: Helps deal with separation, and can speed up any magickal working.

Orange Peel: Love, divination, money, luck, and emotional peace. (They also make great air fresheners!)

Paprika: Adds and extra boost to any magickal working.
