I felt Sekhmet today while I was praying.  She made me feel very warm, inside and out, and gave a sense of comfort almost, and strength.  It was a wonderful feeling, I really need to work with Her more often.

She's totally kick ass and has no problem introducing you to others that you may also benefit. She's also the embodiment of personal strength, you know, and that's the ultimate lesson she has: If she can make it through, so can we.

I did ask for strength for myself and my boyfriend to help us through what we're dealing with, and as soon as I asked and gave her some bread and water I could feel Her there.  And I asked Anpu for guidance and comfort and I felt Him there as well.  Feeling Them both there at the same time was very overwhelming, but I'm so grateful to know that They're listening.  <3

Anpu comes to me either as a steady yet brief pressure against my head or as a sense of calm that completely overshadows my own being, as if He is so much taller than I am.

Deities can come to people in many different ways.  What are the ways that they come into your life and let you know that they are right there with you?


 
When I used to commune with the Goddess I used to get overwhelmingly emotional. It was intense! Now my focus has switched to Ganesh, but we haven't had the pleasure of meeting yet. I can't wait to find out what the experience will be like! It's so exciting! I'll have to update ya'll!

With Vellamo, I feel closest to her when I am floating in the ocean among the sea foam.  She seems motherly; letting the waves envelope me.

With Mielikki, I know she is there with every sigh and flutter of the forest leaves.  Any small animal that crosses my path lets me know that she's watching out for all of us in the woods.

With Tapio I can sense him near me VERY strongly when I smell the scent of burning wood and also dragon's blood incense.  But it's always more intense with wood...  It relates back to the first time I ever felt him.

And with Ukko I feel he is closest to me during a thunderstorm...when the thunder shakes my house, when the lightning illuminates the sky, and when the rain pours down with fury.

Other than that, I get visions and feelings throughout the day that let me know they are watching.  Like in the shower I had the strangest vision of Tapio just gazing right through me and I literally stopped moving for a few minutes just to watch him.

How about you guys?


Usually Cerridwen come to me in dreams, but Amaethon comes in animal form or other forms I can actually see. He mainly shows up as a bird.

Letting you that they are there can be in a lot of forms.  For some they could feel the presence through some form of energy that would let them really feel a sudden change.

While some would be known when they are under a certain type of mindset that works in a good way. I mean, you can deduce that they are watching over you if you are able to make the correct decisions, leaning toward of course what they are set to do in the first place.
