Glorify the name of Aphrodite Kalliste,
Who bestowed grace and beauty upon dear Pandora,
Who won the golden apple,
Who is a jealous goddess.
Glorify the name of Aphrodite Areia,
Who clothes herself in armor for that which she believes in,
Who fights by the side of her fierce lover,
Matching him step for step,
Who is in every grieving heart for lost loved ones.
Glorify the name of Aphrodite Androphonos,
Who slaughters men who feel entitled to a woman’s body,
Who slays the deserving.
Glorify the name of Aphrodite Pandemos,
Who blesses all people who seek her,
Lady of lust and love.
Glorify the name of Aphrodite Pelagia,
Who was born in the womb of the sea,
And from it sprung fully-formed.
Who was led ashore Cyprus
And there was her holy temple built.
Glorify the name of Aphrodite Philomeides,
Who is love bubbling within the chest,
Escaping in fits of giggles.
She is the love that warms the body.
Glorify the name of Aphrodite Praxis,
The embodiment of sensuality and sexuality,
Striking down those who dare to call the sexual dirty.
Glorify the name of Aphrodite Ourania,
Lady of the heavens,
Who keeps her watchful eye upon her followers,
Swift of action when needed.
Glorify the name of our Lady, Aphrodite,
And she may give you a full life.

Your soul feels like a child trying to learn new things. Curious and hopeful. Like a teenager who wants to fall in love. Like someone waiting for great things to happen, because they know it just will.
Tip for my witchcraft practitioners: Keep a little book of chaos around. It should be small and have blank pages (ideally).
The purpose: Every time you notice synchronicity in the universe, every time you have a stray thought or idea, every time you see something you want to add to your BOS/grimoire, write it down. It will get hectic and be messy but that's the point, it's not some overly special book that you need to keep neat and perfect.
I've found that it aids with making decisions on what should and shouldn't go into my official book and allows for me to quickly jot something down when inspiration strikes me. I am also a chronic doodler and thus love the fact that I can draw anywhere I'd like without trying to make it neat. If you're one for junk journaling or mood board pages this would be a great opportunity try out new things without worrying about making it pretty.
You can also use it to record any omens or signs you see for later interpretation. Sigils or servitors can be made on the fly, and thrive off of the chaos in the book.
And once it's finished and has served it purpose, well the next part is up to you. Burn it, keep it, tear out its pages and add it to spell work, use it as a divination tool if you damn well please.
