Hey everyone! Persephone here.

East coast, US.

Mostly solo witch since I was twelve - now working with some awesome friends for extended spell work (so a low key coven).

I mainly work with chthonic deities - namely Hades because of a tie I have, hence my internet name, and recently Hekate who has been knocking at my door very insistently recently - and a few bloodline ones, mainly Aphrodite who is actually listed in my family tree in the genealogy. Kind of a fun fact.

I’d like to learn more about Celtic tradition and deities and lean into faery magick because it’s also in my bloodline.

Big kitchen witch and love to cook and make herbal beauty/glamour enhancements that smell really good. I had a company called Boss Witch but it never took off and I let it kinda die lol.

I’m a published author under a different name. And I write and release music - songwriter, singer, harpist, piano. I’ll send links if anybody wants but didn’t want to spam in my first post haha. Recently I’ve been writing lofi with an alien theme (see below) but I also write more indie and alternative stuff.

My other life is working with the topic of UAP/NHI disclosure (that’s UFOs and aliens, yup, I’m that kinda weird - but I’m taking a step away for a while due to people drama.
In short, people in the “real world” don’t understand paganism or chthonic deities and decided my primary entity must be evil because he doesn’t look or act like their idea of an Angel/celestial nor does he fit their conscious or subconscious religious dogma which is JUST as prevalent in the disclosure world as it is in the occult one. 🤷🏼‍♀️ Still, I run a podcast about the topic and talk about my experiences. AMA if you’re curious, but I’d recommend DM because I’m quite long winded about it haha.

school of thought: eclectic/kitchen Witchery/hedge witch - some ceremonial magick influences (blame the ritualistic Catholic upbringing! I can’t get enough of rituals!)

I always try to practice something daily - even if it’s just meditation - unless I’m sick, in which case I rest!

Disclaimers: (it has come to this, yes.)
No, I’m not going to hex random people on the internet, it’s a waste of my time and energy. No, my primary entity is not haunting your dreams nor does he care to talk to most people. No, you’re probably not my long lost love from a past life come to teach me “the right way” to do things. And I am in touch with my higher self already as she is me - so if you think you had some deep long conversation in astral with her I’m not aware of in which you’re going to impart to me some moral decision I have to make that only you could impart to me, no you didn’t. (All things I’ve been told before.)

seeking: Celtic/Druidic books and information, faery faith information, Hades workings, Hekate workings, Aphrodite workings, astral work. And talk to me if you’re also into UAP/disclosure!

If music hits the required hype levels or emotional beats i just clock out of reality and have like an amv going on,
some repeat characters and themes have been with me for over a decade.

Hi Persephone,

I’m quite long winded about it haha.

Love-it. And thank you for the detailed introduction.

Good grief. I can only imagine the sort of internet drama that produces that sort of list.

I haven't been here long, but, I doubt that will happen here. I look forward to reading your contributions to the community.

Hahaha thanks so much!
All of my tracks technically are keys because I make them digitally but I’ll share one that’s all instrumental (lofi) and one that’s me singing with piano:

lofi:

Now that's an intriguing introduction! Welcome :D
Making music is magic already and when combined with real magic should be very powerful (:
Unfortunately I can listen only to previews since I don't have a Spotify account anymore, but the Mermaid song sounds great.

- watching Die Meistersinger on TV, when the Prize Song was sung all the major and minor chakras in my body lit up. I think my lightbody was showing off.

- watching humans with multiple streams of starlight, singing in a choir, where the streams generated harmonics that radiated through the singing

- Wagner is pretty great. Personally I’d have to say being onstage playing Bernstein’s Second Symphony the Age of Anxiety while at conservatory is high on my list. (I was the principal harpist in the “upper” orchestra at that point.) Mahler’s 9th (I was not principal) was also a stunning experience in which many of us cried.

The pieces that most make me come alive onstage and resonate in my very soul:

The Firebird 1919 Suite (principal harpist, PYO 2005 - the conductor that year got such a sound out of us like I’ve never heard even with an adult orchestra)

Britten’s Ceremony of Carols (especially the harp solo, the Interlude because I was taught it a very particular way I’ve never heard anyone else do. I must record it sometime.)

Debussy Danses Sacrée et Profane for harp and string quartet.

and last but not least the third movement of the Hindemith Sonata for Harp. Again, I was taught it in a way I’ve never heard anyone else do the same, and I really should think about putting it out there for others to hear!

- are you not human? Or generally just speaking specifically of humans? We should talk!

Wonderful introduction. Welcome! Curious to read your contributions.

Hekate of the Roads, lovely Dame, has been recruiting cultists/minions/groupies for 2024, the year of Strength in the wheel of the Arcana. The triple-crowned Queen is exigent, but very generous.

- are you not human?
That rather depends upon what "you" means

Most of those in the format of Earth humanity take a bottom-up view. Sometimes a top-down view gives a better perspective.

Wagner is pretty great.

Wagner spent 30 years writing Parsifal, and finished it a couple of weeks after visiting Rennes le Chateau - long before Saunière arrived.

I was at a concert performance of Parsifal. The singers were pretty ordinary except for Klingsor (the black magician)

Towards the end of the performance a small ball of grail light appeared in the distance. It came closer and at the end of the opera entered the auditorium radiating the most beautiful energy.

When the opera ceased, the audience, being ignorant of Wagner's instruction for no applause at Parsifal, burst into applause and the appalling sound smashed the ball of grail energy and it was gone

Such is life!

For those wanting identified grail experience, when I was at Mont Sainte Odille many years ago, grail energy was accessible in the silent garden.

It is not quite so good now, but the grail energy is just above the garden

That should be Odile

I was taught it in a way I’ve never heard anyone else do the same,

It seems that Mozart at age 5 was writing serious music. A child cannot do that, so I deduce a familiar spirit was assisting.

That also occurs with some singers and musicians.

After the death of that human, it may be possible for a suitable human to attract the familiar and thereby step up in their playing and interpretation.

In my choir I struggled for a year with a particular transition, as did all the altos and basses. Then I had the thought to obtain the relevant familiar from a famous singer of the 19th century. So I went through polite processes and the familiar came.

At the next practice I could hit the transition accurately (down more than an octave) and within a couple of practices so could most of the altos and basses.

Welcome Persephone! I used to make my own music back when MySpace was around. But, I lost everything. However, I have attended a drum circle. Very interesting, and recorded one of my old songs on the recording studio they have at the place I go to.

I’ve heard rumors the divine feminine in general is coming back. I’m making a post about it.
