A closed lipped Deity

[Arienwen]

A little while ago my BF was cleaning and consolidating her altars.  She offered me one of her tables and I gladly took it.  It was a light wooded version of my Aphrodite altar table.  I prettied it up:

I decided that it was an altar for "Just Passin' Through" Deities.  

Well, last night as I was watching TV I heard someone say "I want rosebuds in that bowl there."  Perfectly nice.  When I took too long to do it, it became a huge demand "Put the rosebuds in the bowl NOW!"  So I got up and poured some rosebuds in there.  After that was done I heard the request for Raspberry Leaf as well (which I don't have).  I picked that up today from my BF, and everything is hunky dory.

The problem is, I have no idea who is hanging out there.  And every time I try to meditate on it, or straight out ask, I get nothing.  I am leaning toward Hera, but I'm not exactly sure.  

Does this sound like something that Hera would want?  Or is it someone else that I am not considering at all.  Any ideas?

Maybe a cleansing is in order?  If whatever it is is not being forthright while getting pushy at the same time, that to me is a bit of a red flag.

Agreed. I'm disinclined to fulfill such demands from entities unwilling to identify themselves.

Good point.  How would you suggest I go from here?

[RandallS]

I'd just bluntly inform the entity that I see no reason to give it what it wants as it is too secretive.

Okay.  Thanks. I'm definitely going to do that.

[Celtag]

Okay.  Thanks. I'm definitely going to do that.

I've been in a similar situation with a entity telling me to do thing without informing me who they were. I would definitely confront the entity and give it the what for, in a nice way.

Especially because from the OP's description, there's really no way to know whether what is making the demands is even a deity.

Was the table used as an altar/shrine previously? If so, what deity was honored there? Knowing that might help you figure out who's been talking to you. Maybe, it's worth a shot anyway.

For the record, I agree with everyone else. I wouldn't be comfortable giving in to the demands of an unknown entity without at least having some idea of what kind of entity I was dealing with.

That table was dedicated to Sekhmet, although I cleaned it real nice. :ange:

Alrightythen. Guess that kills my idea, huh?

[SatSekhem]

Not necessarily. Sekhmet could have had a friend over without my knowledge. She does things like that now and again. It's how I got, both, Hwt-Hrw and Papa Legba.
