Something I hate about living in an apartment in the middle of a huge city with no wildlife is that Its dificult for me to get animal signs. And even so, when lucifer started popping up in my dreams and coming in to help me work through some things, I was telling my partner that i wanted more signs, and at that same time a big black, ALL black pigeon came in through my balcony and sat on the threshold of my living room right next to me. I cried xD
Keep in mind though that these are gods and if they want to send you a sign they will. You may not have actual wildlife around you, but for example you will start seeing fox imagery EVERYWHERE. A child’s plush toy right in front of you on the train, someone’s bag right next to you in line, a big mural right around the corner; they can show up everywhere and the hallmark is that like she says, it will happen more than once- - three times is a good rule - - and it will resonate strongly with you.
@@halosandhorns8 but thank you for bringing it to my attention that some people think that my page is run by Frankie! I just made a community post addressing that!
ive only had a conversation once and was with King Odin where i had asked him what he would like as an offering as i didnt know and so ive never had him really talk except when i met him but yeah it was more like vague ideas of "herb.." then a bit later "gardens" so i interoperated he would like an herb garden so i did that, and in the past days ive wanted to really expand this garden so yeah im working on that.
About 8 months ago I had this very strong pull towards Medusa. I kept seeing and reading and hearing things about her and her story and it rang a bell with me (due to some personal things that I empathize with in her story.) I received a Medusa statue without prompting from my Husband who saw it and thought I would love it. That was kind of weird because I don't generally talk about my practice with him, and I hadn't really thought of mentioning it with him since it didn't seem like a big deal. I sat and meditated with that statue for awhile and had the most vivid like out of body experience of walking through an outdoor corridor, and stopping to look into a courtyard that had a fountain where a woman was sitting on the edge of it turned away, she had a hair scarf on and was playing a harp. That's it. And then I panicked and I've never tried to communicate or talk or meditate or anything since. It rattled me so much. She still sits on my altar holding a Medusae air plant. It is probably one of the strangest things I have personally ever experienced.
6:14 This was literally how I realized Lady Athena was with me and stuff,, except it took me 3 years of having the owl watch over me and moments of "oh i wonder if i have a deity with me" *friends and signs saying it's Athena* "nah probably not" to realize that she's with me lmfao
Persephone is my patron deity and one day i just started CRAVINg shirly temples and I'm just like "man, whats in this grenadine shi-" and its made from pomegranate :))) I made her one and gave her an extra cherry for Hades too
OMG! I loved Shirley Temples growing up and would always order them. I even love them as an adult- and have been connecting into Persephone for the past two years but always question myself if she is around- and cherries popped into my head, which I interpreted as Shirley Temples....so I bought some grendaine thinking it was my own brain. But your comment- I am totally going to make her them as offering lol

Wow, talk about amazing timing! I've been getting a lot of signs to start working with some goddesses, especially on the last 2 days. I always appreciate your information 😊
i've been working with lord mercury for over a year now. i live in a very urban area in the UK, so i kind of had no chance of seeing bunnies, roosters, goats or tortoises which are all primarily associated with lord mercury (aside from me, 2 weeks before he introduced himself deciding i needed lots of rabbit themed home decor...) so i just assumed the communication we'd have would be outside of animal signs. now, i have to preface this: i live on a busy road and my front door opens on to the pavement. i have no garden space. the closest green space is a 20 min walk away. but suddenly, from about 6 months or so ago (IN WINTER!) big, beautiful iridescent beetles start just marching into my house to hang out. seriously - right through the front door! i was finding about one every week or so, and i only stopped to think that it could be a sign when i found a beetle on my altar space for lord mercury. i started researching beetle signs, what they could mean etc... but didn't really find much. i stopped thinking about it for a while and then a little voice in my head said 'three realms'. beetles walk, burrow underground and some of them fly, just as mercury does with the divine world, mortal world and underworld. i remember then asking lord mercury "........are the beetles from you?" and just feeling an overwhelming feeling of like, second hand pride!!!!!! so when frankie said 'there's so many ways to commune with the divine' i remembered this experience and just wanted to add that your physical surroundings don't matter! deities (or at least lord mercury lol) will find a way to tell you what they need to say, you just might need to think creatively hahahah
I have tea a couple times a week with Amaterasu. When she first reached out to me, she took over a rune drawing I was doing AND plopped an incredibly intense complicated vision in my brain.

Thank you for making this video! It was nice to hear your views on this, I agree on them alot. Apollo is my patron and every day he leaves a raven outside of my school when I'm late, it's very comforting :)
I had a similar experience with seeing lots of stags/deer when I first started on this path. But I was a "theoretical" witch for a while; not doing the work, studying, or taking it very seriously. Then on one of my usual 5am commutes, as I'm about to go over a drawbridge, a deer jumps over the guardrail directly in front of my vehicle. Effectively slaughtering itself on the hood of my car and causing me to crash into the guardrail in my panic (I'm fine, car wasn't very but it's older than me idc). Took a long time to make the connection but.. I started actually studying and doing the work shortly thereafter 🙈
I have a long way to go before I am ready to dive into full diety work, but I realized a few months ago that I subconsciously associated myself with the colors of a certain Baltic diety, and have been absentmindedly doodling their sigils since I was little.
One time I had planned to get incense for the deity I work with. The night before I went into town to get it, I had a dream where I was in a shop browsing through different incenses. I found frankincense and went like 'No frankincense' and when I woke up I was like, ok that's clear, no frankincense lol. Another time I when I was scrolling through my recommended posts on Instagram, I kept getting an image of her and an image of a Coca Cola bottle/logo next to it, it stopped when I put a glas of coke on her altar. I have frosted glass in my bedroom door (it's usually the first thing I see when I open my eyes and I'm still half asleep) and sometimes I see child like drawings of her in the glass, or a flower if she wants flowers, etc. but they disappear pretty fast as well, I can never find them again afterwards. These are only a few examples, everything you say sounds very familiar.
Can we please get a Graveyard/Cemetery Etiquette video. we've all seen that gorgeous tiktoker with the yellow hair and wicked cool makeup and piercings talk about that, but i'm craving that lesson from the wise Frankie. i had an experience at a graveyard on Samhain night, two years in a row. i wasn't minding my manners, and was very ignorant on the etiquette when i visited.....i got pelted by 40+ rocks out of nowhere. so we needs tuh kno dis. pwees?
This is super random but you talk just like my girlfriend does and that made me smile And I’m sorry to hear you were pelted with rocks. Even with poor manners that’s never acceptable, I hope you have more positive experiences going forward. Blessed be
This is very true. With Fenrir I mostly get random thoughts and when I want to communicate with him, I go to the altar, light his candle, and just talk. I have found that I can kind of interpret if he is happy or not and sometimes even ask yes or no questions regarding things like offerings by observing what his flame is doing. A few weeks ago I was shopping at Walmart and I was looking for some jars to store oils and herbs and such. I asked him for some guidance and help finding what I needed. About five minutes later I found some big storage jars. I asked him to lead me to some smaller ones and sure enough, later that day when I was about to check out I saw exactly what I was looking for.
Thank you for making this video, it comes at a perfect time in my own practice! I’m pretty new to deity work, and it’s hard to find info online that isn’t just light hearted social media posts. When I first started my practice, I hadn’t planned on working with deities, but in the last few months, I’ve realized that Apollo was reaching out to me for some time. Now I’m doing as much research as I can on how to communicate with him. So far it’s been a lot of trial and error, but I’ve found that he enjoys to communicate while I’m doing my daily tarot readings, which makes a lot of sense given his connection to prophecy. I’m now interested to try some of the other methods you mentioned!
I'm so happy I found you. I feel so much more secure in my craft and worship since watching your videos! tiktok has me second guessing myself like I'm not going in deep enough cause I can't have a full blown conversation with my ancestors/spirt guides
the way i like to describe deity communication is like texting/talking to a close friend. sure, sometimes you do have coherent conversations, but usually you communicate with memes and images, facial expressions, weird noises, etc. just like with deities, sure you think it's mostly just one on one conversation, but it's usually sudden thoughts, animals, numbers/signs, etc.
A little while ago, I had a dream where I saw two large black birds, and they wouldn’t leave my mind for the next few days, after a few days, I realized that they were from Odin, and I started working with him!
A while back I went to a metaphysical shop i'd been to nearly 5 times. I'm always on the lookout for things associated with Cernunnos but I'd never seen anything with his likeness in this store before, only things dedicated to The Wiccan God or The Green Man. I saw a Pendant with him on it at the previous shop I'd been to not long before but I ended up not getting it. Then at this shop saw a trinket box with Cernunnos specifically on it and I thought "oh cool! I might get that!". Then as I was walking around I saw a statue of him. I told myself that I would think on getting it. When I went home I couldn't stop thinking about the statue so that night I told myself that I would get it if it were still there in the morning. I went the next morning to a different metaphysical shop that was closer to where I live and they had the same statue. I ended up going back to the original shop I saw the statue because it was cheaper there and they still had it so I got it.
For me it is like a thought and a feeling. Mostly not full sentences though or at least not very long ones. That is how they communicate with me and it works just fine. I also may see them in my dreams or washy in my head but that is not very often the case. Thank you so much for sharing, it does make one wonder if I do something wrong when reading social media experiences and it is great that you talk about it.
So glad you mentioned multiple ways to interpret signs from the divine! I find that going just off of animals can be very misleading. Imagine living in a city, seeing 20 pigeons a day, and thinking it's a sign from Ishtar. Sure, could be...or pigeons are common in cities so you're bound to see tons of them. Same with seeing deer and bunnies if you live in suburban/rural areas. Totally commonplace stuff.
Question Can trickster spirits learn others lore ? I remember learning in Christianity that even the devil knows scripture and he knows it well. So you could think its an angel but whole time it's a demon. So could other entities do the same for dieties ?
This is one thing that scare the crap out of me with trickster spirits. Idk if they can or not but trickster spirits usally won't take the time and effort to think of elaborate plans, and tbh they aren't very smart haha
My experience with tricksters is that they CAN learn the lore, but you have to be smart enough to ask follow up questions that are specific to you or a past interaction you may have had with them. A deity will already know your name. A trickster does not. Tricksters are usually more theatrical with their presentation to you. Don't be intimidated by them and call their bluff if they threaten you. They can't do shit. In time, you'll be able to learn the deity's energy and differentiate it from a trickster's.
@@emmafahnestock9621 I guess it depends what you mean by a trickster spirit. One youtuber here had Loki pretend to be Pan for several years. She grew up Christian and was scared of Loki seeing him the first time as a teen, so he did what he had to, to work with her. Loki can definitely be smart and stubborn.
Thank you so much for this video!! I have been having trouble with this for a while. Also, I cannot thank you enough for videos. They are incredibly helpful and knowledgeable. You're absolutely amazing. Thank you so so so much!! Blessed be.
Really great video. Thank you. One of biggest pet peeves is when people come at me with “I have a message for you from a deity,” or “I’ve been reading you and I know this about you.” If I’ve asked for that or given permission for it then that’s one thing. It is perfectly acceptable. But usually no permission has been given....and often consent has already been denied. To me, it feels very manipulative and controlling (I’m a sag....sags like to feel free lol) I can do my own readings and I can receive messages from deities. If a deity has something for me then they will come to me. Anyways, sorry for my rant. Great video!
I’ve been seeing a lot more deer then usual this year, previously I’d only see a deer like maybe once a year even though I went outside a ton. now I could probably see like 5 by just going on a drive. I also found an antler shed recently and deer bones when I went on a walk with my dad. so idk what that means
Yeah, I totally agree- unless your an oracle, priest/ess it's not right to personally deliver messages from the Gods unless they specifically tell you to.
I've seen many blackbirds are squirrels lately, I feel very connected to my dog and have always felt connected to the moon and the sea. The greatest conclution is that Diana is here alot with me, spiritually, but it could also be that Hermes/Mercury is trying to connect with me?
A very informative video. I'm also a medium and my deities and even my zemis aren't consistent with how they communicate to me. A lot of times, it's direct. Other times it's with other little signs from my matron. It's the little things that make me happy
Really the only way Athena and I communicate (I work more with deity worship rather than full deity work) is her making her candle flame dance when I play music and/or dance
i think my biggest thing with the sitting on the messages to really understand them is that the more i try and understand what exactly i need to know from the cards, i understand it less because i think of so many ways that i could interpret it. so i get confused and frustrated.
Honestly the thought of working with deity’s is kinda terrifying for me, I am a beginner and I know I will probably not be ready to work with any for a long time but just the thought is scary. Don’t know why though.
can you do a video on different dieties and the ways they show themselves/want to reach out or good sources to check? I have a crow outside my window everyday around the same time, that never happened before and im not sure who it is?
I'm so glad you made this video, because I had a goddess show up in my dream a few days ago (she told me to do a Tarot reading) and I really needed some help on how to communicate with her again!
For me bees have been mentioned and around me a lot these past few days like the bee hotel my dad put up in the garden just. Got more bees in it and I’ve seen bees around a lot and they keep popping up and what do you know it’s right after I’ve started building a relationship with Aphrodite and did my first self written prayer
As always, amazing video, thank you! I also have a quick question- in regards with looking at history it seems that communing with deities tended to be very ritualistic and elaborate. Ive often heard that this shows respect to the deity and whatnot. But honestly, I don't have the energy to do a lengthy ritual every time I wanna communicate with a deity via idk tarot cards, for example. Thoughts? Thanks!
If someone could help me I'd greatly appreciate it 😭 okay so I've recently about a year ago dived into spiritually, my grandma was a witch so I was always really drawn to her when I was a kid, and spirituality just kinda chose me. Ever since I've had really weird vivid dreams that come true, or my guides communicate with me through them. I had this one dream where Aphrodite visited me in my room, and a bright light surrounded my whole room, she had told me something that was important, but I was so tired when I woke up, that I just fell asleep and I forgot completely what she told me! I've communicated with my guides and higher self to ask if it was actually her and they said yes every time, and I've received signs from her ever since, but I just don't know how to contact or ask her what she said 😩 I also don't feel like I'm at the level to communicate or reach out to her fully so pls help!
I’d say the best way would just be to meditate and simply ask her. She will likely understand that you forgot the previous message. I suggest having a paper and pen with you so you can write it down immediately after you’ve finished. There are several guided meditations online for communing with deities I suggest looking into those if you need some help with meditating ( which is completely normal) or getting to the meditative state to commune.
I keep seeing imagery of sailboats and fishng nets, also my friends have invited me to go sailing with them and when i went to work today there was a new baby alpaca born(I work at an alpaca ranch) and her name was brizo. Brizo is the goddess of fishermen and sailors. Is she reaching out? please help me i am just a baby witch
Ok so I've had a spirit follow me around for the last couple days he said he was good intentions and that he was related with my diety dionysus I think I can trust him but he's super stubborn other then answering a few questions he doesn't listen to me when I try to do stuff with so i can help him as much as I can till the full moon when I can try more powerful forms of divination other then pendulums. I promised to help him and I do my best not to break promises especially with spirits
I've come to believe that Lucifer is reaching out to me for multiple reasons. I did tarot and the pendulum for confirmation and I got all yes but the most significant sign back was asking to bring me crows if he was trying to reach out and I woke up the next day to quite a few outside my window. What do I do with this now?
I had a dream art Freja (sorry if I spelled the wrong) and I LOVE cats, I have cats come to my house all the time etc, and idk maybe I should pray to her sometimes for my cats safety if that's possible lmao
i am a biggener witch i always see angel numbers and i think the deity is trying to communicate with me because spider always appear but i don't know what to do with the signs that i get and witch deity is reaching out
wasnt sure where else to ask this. i have a mirror facing my bed. its one of those slide door mirrors to my closet so theres no way to move it. ive heard its extremely dangerous to sleep with a mirror facing your bed, so i was wondering how i could protect myself, either by locking, warding, etc. i remember seeing some tiktoks about it but cant remember what was said :/ hope someone can help !
Here’s something, I’m aussie yea, and I adore lady Hera but here’s the thing, we don’t exactly have peacocks wandering around everywhere so what would you recommend for me to look, because many animals like squirrels and deer and such aren’t exactly here
So uhm, i think Lord Hades wants me to workship him, how do i know for sure tho? Here's why i think he wants me to workship him: (All of this was when i fell asleep after asking any divine beings/higher powers if they were reaching out since i've been seeing an insane amount of angel numbers lately) The other day i had a strange dream where there was this black backround and random white, stone letters and i heard a voice (kinda creepy but not enough to make me scared) say "FINALLY! I've been waiting for you! Where were you? I've been reaching out to you! I think you're ready, I want you." and then it completely changed to some pretty place in nature, and Persephone, the goddess (idrk how i actually know that was her but i know it and im sure it was her) said "You're not ready to work with me, love." and she guided me through some beautiful gardens with blue and white flowers and lots of green bushes, i also saw a black bird in the gardens. Then i consulted it with some other more experienced with deity work witches and one of them (who works with several deities including Hades) said that the voice and the black bird may have been Lord Hades, Persephone's husband, and that he may want me to workship him. I tried to repeat that last night but i only remember having 3 really short dreams (i dont actually remember the dreams i just know i had them) and i also remember that every time i got half awake, i called for Lord Hades but i don't really know if there was any response from him. What can i do? (also i dont work with divination so i dont have any decks or pendulums, etc)
Hey So I have some questions about your work with Morrigan I currently work with her and have since pretty much the beginning of my journey 7-8 years ago. Not many people talk about their experiences with her and I am REALLY curious I am don't know if any other deities have reached out I would really love to chat
can someone help me? i kind felt "called" by freyja idk maybe i was delusional but i meditate ONCE with a sound on yt for her it helps me a lot actually i never ever felt like that next days I felt her presence i am very grateful. now i have butterflies flying around me and cats following me i read it could be her sign. but idk. like what should I do please help me if she is sending me things and maybe she wants me to do something for her(?) but i literally have nothing to offer her i don't want to make her mad or something idk i never did anything like this. if you can help me or just give me your opinion i will appreciate it.
Do you have specific decks you dedicate to deity work, or even to specific deities? If so does it work better? Just wondering, a lot of my practice revolves around cartomancy, I like to talk about it. But don't forget about dreams, witchlings. They are such a powerful contact modality. You really can talk to the gods in the flesh -- in dreams. The Lord and Lady called me to the Craft in a dream long ago. Make an effort to log your dreams and your recall will improve.
Haha the captions read "hey bitchlings" and I'm not complaining!
OH NO

Aww that must have been a very emotional awakening. Poor deer. I hope it didn't scar you. I would have cried for hours 😂
I have a long way to go before I am ready to dive into full diety work, but I realized a few months ago that I subconsciously associated myself with the colors of a certain Baltic diety, and have been absentmindedly doodling their sigils since I was little.
So excited for this video! ❤️
I work in customer service and I'm going to start telling customers who give me a hard time "Diana says you're a b*tch" XD
One time I had planned to get incense for the deity I work with. The night before I went into town to get it, I had a dream where I was in a shop browsing through different incenses. I found frankincense and went like 'No frankincense' and when I woke up I was like, ok that's clear, no frankincense lol. Another time I when I was scrolling through my recommended posts on Instagram, I kept getting an image of her and an image of a Coca Cola bottle/logo next to it, it stopped when I put a glas of coke on her altar. I have frosted glass in my bedroom door (it's usually the first thing I see when I open my eyes and I'm still half asleep) and sometimes I see child like drawings of her in the glass, or a flower if she wants flowers, etc. but they disappear pretty fast as well, I can never find them again afterwards. These are only a few examples, everything you say sounds very familiar.
My spouse can't have a cat so Frøya sent me friends with cats and a neighborhood with cats that love me haha
@@SMARTYTVyt ok.
Can we please get a Graveyard/Cemetery Etiquette video. we've all seen that gorgeous tiktoker with the yellow hair and wicked cool makeup and piercings talk about that, but i'm craving that lesson from the wise Frankie. i had an experience at a graveyard on Samhain night, two years in a row. i wasn't minding my manners, and was very ignorant on the etiquette when i visited.....i got pelted by 40+ rocks out of nowhere. so we needs tuh kno dis. pwees?
This is super random but you talk just like my girlfriend does and that made me smile
And I’m sorry to hear you were pelted with rocks. Even with poor manners that’s never acceptable, I hope you have more positive experiences going forward. Blessed be
This is very true. With Fenrir I mostly get random thoughts and when I want to communicate with him, I go to the altar, light his candle, and just talk. I have found that I can kind of interpret if he is happy or not and sometimes even ask yes or no questions regarding things like offerings by observing what his flame is doing. A few weeks ago I was shopping at Walmart and I was looking for some jars to store oils and herbs and such. I asked him for some guidance and help finding what I needed. About five minutes later I found some big storage jars. I asked him to lead me to some smaller ones and sure enough, later that day when I was about to check out I saw exactly what I was looking for.
Thank you for making this video, it comes at a perfect time in my own practice! I’m pretty new to deity work, and it’s hard to find info online that isn’t just light hearted social media posts. When I first started my practice, I hadn’t planned on working with deities, but in the last few months, I’ve realized that Apollo was reaching out to me for some time. Now I’m doing as much research as I can on how to communicate with him. So far it’s been a lot of trial and error, but I’ve found that he enjoys to communicate while I’m doing my daily tarot readings, which makes a lot of sense given his connection to prophecy. I’m now interested to try some of the other methods you mentioned!
I'm so happy I found you. I feel so much more secure in my craft and worship since watching your videos! tiktok has me second guessing myself like I'm not going in deep enough cause I can't have a full blown conversation with my ancestors/spirt guides
9:15 all of this happened to me this week and I didn't connect the dots until I watched this video lmao
why did I think you called us “bitchlings” lmao
I had the automatic captions on and that's what it understood too 😭😭
the way i like to describe deity communication is like texting/talking to a close friend. sure, sometimes you do have coherent conversations, but usually you communicate with memes and images, facial expressions, weird noises, etc. just like with deities, sure you think it's mostly just one on one conversation, but it's usually sudden thoughts, animals, numbers/signs, etc.
A little while ago, I had a dream where I saw two large black birds, and they wouldn’t leave my mind for the next few days, after a few days, I realized that they were from Odin, and I started working with him!
WHEN SHE SAID "MY DOG SLEPT WITH ME" I AUTOMATICALLY THOUGHT OF "MY DOG STEPPED ON A BEE" 🤣🤣🤣
A while back I went to a metaphysical shop i'd been to nearly 5 times. I'm always on the lookout for things associated with Cernunnos but I'd never seen anything with his likeness in this store before, only things dedicated to The Wiccan God or The Green Man. I saw a Pendant with him on it at the previous shop I'd been to not long before but I ended up not getting it. Then at this shop saw a trinket box with Cernunnos specifically on it and I thought "oh cool! I might get that!". Then as I was walking around I saw a statue of him. I told myself that I would think on getting it. When I went home I couldn't stop thinking about the statue so that night I told myself that I would get it if it were still there in the morning. I went the next morning to a different metaphysical shop that was closer to where I live and they had the same statue. I ended up going back to the original shop I saw the statue because it was cheaper there and they still had it so I got it.
For me it is like a thought and a feeling. Mostly not full sentences though or at least not very long ones. That is how they communicate with me and it works just fine. I also may see them in my dreams or washy in my head but that is not very often the case. Thank you so much for sharing, it does make one wonder if I do something wrong when reading social media experiences and it is great that you talk about it.
So glad you mentioned multiple ways to interpret signs from the divine!
I find that going just off of animals can be very misleading. Imagine living in a city, seeing 20 pigeons a day, and thinking it's a sign from Ishtar. Sure, could be...or pigeons are common in cities so you're bound to see tons of them. Same with seeing deer and bunnies if you live in suburban/rural areas. Totally commonplace stuff.
Question Can trickster spirits learn others lore ?
I remember learning in Christianity that even the devil knows scripture and he knows it well. So you could think its an angel but whole time it's a demon. So could other entities do the same for dieties ?
This is one thing that scare the crap out of me with trickster spirits. Idk if they can or not but trickster spirits usally won't take the time and effort to think of elaborate plans, and tbh they aren't very smart haha
It depends on the being they are trying to appear as. Ask them very specific questions that only the real being would know.
My experience with tricksters is that they CAN learn the lore, but you have to be smart enough to ask follow up questions that are specific to you or a past interaction you may have had with them. A deity will already know your name. A trickster does not. Tricksters are usually more theatrical with their presentation to you. Don't be intimidated by them and call their bluff if they threaten you. They can't do shit. In time, you'll be able to learn the deity's energy and differentiate it from a trickster's.
@@emmafahnestock9621 I guess it depends what you mean by a trickster spirit. One youtuber here had Loki pretend to be Pan for several years. She grew up Christian and was scared of Loki seeing him the first time as a teen, so he did what he had to, to work with her. Loki can definitely be smart and stubborn.
Demons are generally very knowledgeable
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS
thank you!!
You always break it all down so helpfully. Thank you for making magick so accessible.
Thank you so much for this video!! I have been having trouble with this for a while.
Also, I cannot thank you enough for videos. They are incredibly helpful and knowledgeable. You're absolutely amazing. Thank you so so so much!! Blessed be.
Really great video. Thank you. One of biggest pet peeves is when people come at me with “I have a message for you from a deity,” or “I’ve been reading you and I know this about you.” If I’ve asked for that or given permission for it then that’s one thing. It is perfectly acceptable. But usually no permission has been given....and often consent has already been denied. To me, it feels very manipulative and controlling (I’m a sag....sags like to feel free lol) I can do my own readings and I can receive messages from deities. If a deity has something for me then they will come to me. Anyways, sorry for my rant. Great video!
thanks for making this video it's really helpful!
Thank you sm for this series I love your channel and tik tok it’s so helpful!!
The Amber thing happened to me but with red jasper lol!
I LEGITIMATELY love how you have 111 thousand subs! Like 111!😩😩
Thank you so much :D
Ty caption for calling us bitchlings lmao
IM SORRY
I’ve been seeing a lot more deer then usual this year, previously I’d only see a deer like maybe once a year even though I went outside a ton. now I could probably see like 5 by just going on a drive. I also found an antler shed recently and deer bones when I went on a walk with my dad. so idk what that means
Yeah, I totally agree- unless your an oracle, priest/ess it's not right to personally deliver messages from the Gods unless they specifically tell you to.
Thank you for this wonderful bewitching sermon it will help me in many ways, have a great week.
I've seen many blackbirds are squirrels lately, I feel very connected to my dog and have always felt connected to the moon and the sea. The greatest conclution is that Diana is here alot with me, spiritually, but it could also be that Hermes/Mercury is trying to connect with me?
A very informative video. I'm also a medium and my deities and even my zemis aren't consistent with how they communicate to me. A lot of times, it's direct. Other times it's with other little signs from my matron. It's the little things that make me happy
Really the only way Athena and I communicate (I work more with deity worship rather than full deity work) is her making her candle flame dance when I play music and/or dance
can i just say- YOUR SO PRETTYYYY
Me, who lives on a tree farm in New Jersey where deer packs fully live and graze as just a natural part of the local ecosystem, 👁👄👁
Can you talk about working/dealing with Freya when she is being difficult?
You should make a video about a new, rapidly growing species of witch: The social media witch. 😅
ur so knowledgeable frankie thanks for these vids!
i think my biggest thing with the sitting on the messages to really understand them is that the more i try and understand what exactly i need to know from the cards, i understand it less because i think of so many ways that i could interpret it. so i get confused and frustrated.
can u do a video talking about this medium abilities and like how develop them/how those abilities helped you in your practice?
Honestly the thought of working with deity’s is kinda terrifying for me, I am a beginner and I know I will probably not be ready to work with any for a long time but just the thought is scary. Don’t know why though.
I love your channel so much Frankie 🖤
Start of the video: Hey, bitchlings!
End of the video: If you watched the whole video, you already know how I feel about you.
Great video. A lot of good information!!
Thank you for this🤗🤗🤗
This is amazing and so helpful. Also very relatable 😅
can you do a video on different dieties and the ways they show themselves/want to reach out or good sources to check? I have a crow outside my window everyday around the same time, that never happened before and im not sure who it is?
I'm so glad you made this video, because I had a goddess show up in my dream a few days ago (she told me to do a Tarot reading) and I really needed some help on how to communicate with her again!
I’m late but I’m here lol so excited!!
ily very mucho
Could you make a video on astral projection and methods to go about it? Or even just resources for learning how to astral project?
Awesome video, thanks!!!
For me bees have been mentioned and around me a lot these past few days like the bee hotel my dad put up in the garden just. Got more bees in it and I’ve seen bees around a lot and they keep popping up and what do you know it’s right after I’ve started building a relationship with Aphrodite and did my first self written prayer
Will you do a video on astral projection???
As always, amazing video, thank you! I also have a quick question- in regards with looking at history it seems that communing with deities tended to be very ritualistic and elaborate. Ive often heard that this shows respect to the deity and whatnot. But honestly, I don't have the energy to do a lengthy ritual every time I wanna communicate with a deity via idk tarot cards, for example. Thoughts? Thanks!
If someone could help me I'd greatly appreciate it 😭 okay so I've recently about a year ago dived into spiritually, my grandma was a witch so I was always really drawn to her when I was a kid, and spirituality just kinda chose me. Ever since I've had really weird vivid dreams that come true, or my guides communicate with me through them. I had this one dream where Aphrodite visited me in my room, and a bright light surrounded my whole room, she had told me something that was important, but I was so tired when I woke up, that I just fell asleep and I forgot completely what she told me! I've communicated with my guides and higher self to ask if it was actually her and they said yes every time, and I've received signs from her ever since, but I just don't know how to contact or ask her what she said 😩 I also don't feel like I'm at the level to communicate or reach out to her fully so pls help!
I’d say the best way would just be to meditate and simply ask her. She will likely understand that you forgot the previous message. I suggest having a paper and pen with you so you can write it down immediately after you’ve finished. There are several guided meditations online for communing with deities I suggest looking into those if you need some help with meditating ( which is completely normal) or getting to the meditative state to commune.
Thanks for this! :)
i prefure witchling to baby witch as a turm for new witches
I’ve looked and looked for books on communication with certain deities or just deities in general but I’ve had no luck
I keep seeing imagery of sailboats and fishng nets, also my friends have invited me to go sailing with them and when i went to work today there was a new baby alpaca born(I work at an alpaca ranch) and her name was brizo. Brizo is the goddess of fishermen and sailors. Is she reaching out? please help me i am just a baby witch
Anyone have any book recommendations for deity work?
Encyclopedia of spirits is a good book to learn a bit about deities. You can actually see it on Frankie’s bookshelf lol
Ok so I've had a spirit follow me around for the last couple days he said he was good intentions and that he was related with my diety dionysus I think I can trust him but he's super stubborn other then answering a few questions he doesn't listen to me when I try to do stuff with so i can help him as much as I can till the full moon when I can try more powerful forms of divination other then pendulums. I promised to help him and I do my best not to break promises especially with spirits
Will you please do a video on how you celebrate Litha?
I've come to believe that Lucifer is reaching out to me for multiple reasons. I did tarot and the pendulum for confirmation and I got all yes but the most significant sign back was asking to bring me crows if he was trying to reach out and I woke up the next day to quite a few outside my window. What do I do with this now?
I had a dream art Freja (sorry if I spelled the wrong) and I LOVE cats, I have cats come to my house all the time etc, and idk maybe I should pray to her sometimes for my cats safety if that's possible lmao
Thinking how the deity I want to work with communicating with human.... SHOWING UP IN PERSON!!!!! AAAAAAAAAA
i am a biggener witch i always see angel numbers and i think the deity is trying to communicate with me because spider always appear but i don't know what to do with the signs that i get and witch deity is reaching out
the subtitles said "bitchlings"
wasnt sure where else to ask this.
i have a mirror facing my bed. its one of those slide door mirrors to my closet so theres no way to move it. ive heard its extremely dangerous to sleep with a mirror facing your bed, so i was wondering how i could protect myself, either by locking, warding, etc. i remember seeing some tiktoks about it but cant remember what was said :/ hope someone can help !
You could cover it up for the night. I did it with my closet mirror, I just pinned some cloth to the top.
@@copperstahl5132 ill definitely try that. i am a closet witch so it may look weird to my family but ill try it out !
No dreams here either! Cancer 12H is a bastard
Here’s something, I’m aussie yea, and I adore lady Hera but here’s the thing, we don’t exactly have peacocks wandering around everywhere so what would you recommend for me to look, because many animals like squirrels and deer and such aren’t exactly here
What if you spread you cards out and then pick up three cards that all represent a deity does that count?
So uhm, i think Lord Hades wants me to workship him, how do i know for sure tho? Here's why i think he wants me to workship him: (All of this was when i fell asleep after asking any divine beings/higher powers if they were reaching out since i've been seeing an insane amount of angel numbers lately) The other day i had a strange dream where there was this black backround and random white, stone letters and i heard a voice (kinda creepy but not enough to make me scared) say "FINALLY! I've been waiting for you! Where were you? I've been reaching out to you! I think you're ready, I want you." and then it completely changed to some pretty place in nature, and Persephone, the goddess (idrk how i actually know that was her but i know it and im sure it was her) said "You're not ready to work with me, love." and she guided me through some beautiful gardens with blue and white flowers and lots of green bushes, i also saw a black bird in the gardens. Then i consulted it with some other more experienced with deity work witches and one of them (who works with several deities including Hades) said that the voice and the black bird may have been Lord Hades, Persephone's husband, and that he may want me to workship him. I tried to repeat that last night but i only remember having 3 really short dreams (i dont actually remember the dreams i just know i had them) and i also remember that every time i got half awake, i called for Lord Hades but i don't really know if there was any response from him. What can i do? (also i dont work with divination so i dont have any decks or pendulums, etc)
When you try to follow your intuition bit you have ADHD so your intuition pulls you in several directions 😵
Hey
So I have some questions about your work with Morrigan
I currently work with her and have since pretty much the beginning of my journey 7-8 years ago.
Not many people talk about their experiences with her and I am REALLY curious
I am don't know if any other deities have reached out
I would really love to chat
Is It Normal If A Deity Shows Signs to Me For More Than 4 Years Now?
Hey! Could you pleaaaase make a video about returning the energy that someone sent you? The whole return to sender thing. Pleaaaaase ):
can someone help me?
i kind felt "called" by freyja idk maybe i was delusional but i meditate ONCE with a sound on yt for her it helps me a lot actually i never ever felt like that next days I felt her presence i am very grateful. now i have butterflies flying around me and cats following me i read it could be her sign. but idk. like what should I do please help me if she is sending me things and maybe she wants me to do something for her(?) but i literally have nothing to offer her i don't want to make her mad or something idk i never did anything like this. if you can help me or just give me your opinion i will appreciate it.
Do you have specific decks you dedicate to deity work, or even to specific deities? If so does it work better? Just wondering, a lot of my practice revolves around cartomancy, I like to talk about it.
But don't forget about dreams, witchlings. They are such a powerful contact modality. You really can talk to the gods in the flesh -- in dreams. The Lord and Lady called me to the Craft in a dream long ago. Make an effort to log your dreams and your recall will improve.
wait having your period on a full moon could have a meaning?? My period came the night of the blood moon. And it was like,, WAY ahead of its time
can you do a video on astral projection please ??
Do deities already know you/things about you or would it be necessary for deities to also learn about you?
