"I'm Snow on the Altar, an eclectic witch from China, and you can also call me Octopus. I'm currently exploring some PGM (Greek Magical Papyri) and Hellenic revival practices. I just wanted to share a bit of my past here, and I really hope I'm not bothering anyone 🥹 Since I'm using a translator, my word order might be a bit messy."
"Throughout my past, many mystical experiences have occurred around me, leaving me feeling utterly lost and desperately searching for a purpose, yet an answer always remained just out of reach. Before encountering Hermes, I was tormented by spiritual disturbances and mental health struggles. I was too young to ask for help back then. It wasn't until I reached my current age that I received an oracle from the god Hermes, and I finally stepped onto his path.
I am deeply grateful to Lord Hermes and Goddess Hecate. They have been so forgiving and magnificent, showing endless tolerance and offering gentle guidance throughout my growth.
Yet, in truth, I often feel incredibly powerless. I've never been one to believe in fate, but when the endings I foresaw in advance still unfold right before my eyes, I am consumed by despair.
I began to just stand by and watch, isolating my emotions until I slipped into a state of dissociation. This happened even when facing the passing of my loved ones, my own illnesses, and the loss of my beloved pets.
Because of this, I am now striving harder than ever to break free from past struggles and lingering shadows, committing myself to a more serious and determined effort..."
"To be honest, I'm still not very good at using forum-style platforms
. My translation app keeps changing the post back into Chinese, thinking I want to be super formal. I looked around forever but just couldn't find the delete button, so this will have to do for now."
