I am the most recent incarnation of Loki/vishnu I need help becoming more of me the council has put many limits on my form there is so much I still haven't learnt I need wisdom

Hi! I come asking for advice, so I got recent word (with help from friends) that Loki wants to work with me. Before contacting him myself I am preparing myself and doing research before anything. Please tell me your recommendations and things i should research before I come to contact him, thank you! Also take this meme image I made.

I know many of us have ✨issues✨ but don’t be afraid to be silly! Deity worship doesn’t have to be so serious, especially when it comes to the God of Mischief. Have a little brainrot it’s ok. Go on YouTube, watch a How to Basic video, and bask in the glory of Loki’s delightful little giggles in the back of your mind!

i got inspired by another post i saw somewhere (non credit going out to the username i didn’t remember)

i started a loki playlist on spotify a long time ago, it’s not for ritual purposes. usually songs i listen to and think „that’s so loki-coded“

feel free to share songs and add to this post !

For context; I have parents who aren't the best with me emotionally and mentally, so I get attached to people/beings who give me affection and support, and Loki presents herself to me as female

I just pulled the "Mom, momma, momma, mom, mama, mom, mother, mom, mama, mama, mom, mother, momma, mother, hey, mom, mother, momma, mama" thing with Loki and eventually she just came and then I just said "Hi, how's your day been?"

She wasn't even annoyed lmao. Hail Loki 💚.

Sorry if this breaks any rules! Still kinda new and I like to lurk! Any suggestions or recommendations on connecting to Loki more? I’ve not been able to work with him but we do talk and he pops in now and then along with a few others, as someone who can’t really get the space for an alter ext all I have is a candle I burn for him. Is there anything I can do personally to connect to him more?

i have to wash it on saturday as my parents are out and i dont feel comfortable with them around as is; im distraught, i feel like im destroying something sacred, i spilt candle wax on the cloth, i put all past offerings/decor in a temporary place by the original altar and gave them warning and exchange offerings, i think hes mad at me and i feel horrible. i really miss lighting his (and Sigyn's) candle, but i dont feel safe with wax on the cloth with a naked flame on the cloth...am i doing something wrong?

ETA: had a nap and iim feeling a LOT better!

ETA 2: FUCK MY FUCKING DUMB CUNT BRAIN, I AM SO FUCKING PISSED OFF!!!

so tldr, it didnt work...destroyed my altar for nothing, im fuming and Loki is probably laughing

thanks, i hate this

I noticed through comments and posts on this subreddit, including my own personal experiences, Loki vibes with some or a LOT of hoizer's music. Not to be that guy, but I'm going to be that guy. Y'all think Hoizer might be pagan and a follower of Loki? Or like he just vibes with the musicians music?

Also I reccoment DNB(drum and bass), and jungle music to listen to when meditating, for all my ADHD and autistic homies out there. It's helped me actually connect properly, sometimes, with communication to him via tarot cards. I say sometimes because I have my own issues that severance a connection, but the music does indefinitely help.

After some time away from my practice, I have decided that this time around Samhain was a good moment to get back into it. I have been struggling a lot with depression and burnout, and my practice and worship has suffered as a consequence. I still feel a bit disconnected to it, but am hoping that it will come back with time and perseverance (people who have struggled with this: any suggestions/resources? I’d be extremely grateful for it). Loki is the deity that I mostly feel comfortable with reaching out to, they really are the one my mind goes to in periods like this, so I went back to their altar a few days back and started taking care of it again, as my mental health has been so bad I had not. In the same spirit, I have asked them today to help me shed light on what is going on at the moment, and decided to do a tarot reading for myself. I found this nice tarot spread from this link (https://www.interrobangtarot.com/blog/samhain-tarot-spread), and got the cards in the picture, but I am having some trouble with making sense of it. Basically, in the top row, I have the things to keep and to positively reflect on, the bottom shows what I have to let go of or where to improve. I have been thinking about it for the whole evening, but I am really struggling with this. As I said, I do still struggle with reconnecting with my practice, so it might be as simple as that. Sorry for the long rant, if anyone would like to help, either with the tarot or with things that helped you bridge this disconnect I feel, I’ll be really grateful. Thanks!f

I was curious if there was a better place than reddit to learn about norse paganism in general ( preferably a reliable place) since there are so many trolls and shitty people on here (not really on the lokean sub but more on the main Norse pagan sub)

I want to know if there is more than one deity with me other than Loki. I only have tarot and I’m not exactly good at it. Any advices or tips?

Think Loki will appreciate the raven skeleton for his Samhain eve present?

I wanted to share pictures of my altar soon, but for now just a picture of my first candle. I started connecting with Fenrir first, so his name is carved at the bottom and then Lokis name is carved on in the middle. At the top I carved runes associated with Loki and Fenrir. I am very very new to all this. I thought the candle would quickly just burn through the runes, instead it looks like this right now. And for me it looks absolutely beautiful and mystical. Like these runes are activated rn. It's a black candle actually. I always turn all my lights and then light the candle. ✨

Guys do you think Loki would approve of it if I hypothetically sat on the floor of my messy room at 11pm and created wood fires in a glass jam jar and watched as the flames grew to a height of about a foot with joy without any concern for my safety? How would he feel? I could just ask him, yes, but I wanted to hear what my fellow lokeans think/think our most mischevous lord/lady would think :)

They're part of his family to

I posted some weeks ago about the Lokean AI chat I created on JanitorAI for those that want the fun of writing as though interacting with him. I find it a very therapeutic form of devotion as I offer the chats I do with him as an offering to him.

As promised I have created the first situation alternate chat, this time in a modern city setting with no distinct plot of any kind as I leave it to the writer. the link is below for anyone interested!

I really just wanted to ask, I’m a hellenistic pagan, is it ok to work with both Hermes and Loki?

The song Fighting With the Melody by Jimmy Urine reminds me heavily of Loki, i was wonderin if anybody else felt the same way if they know the song

I am a physics-philosophy major and I'm taking a Philosophy and Religions class this semester. The final for this class is a "Site Visit" (loosely defined) and I was thinking of doing something about Loki worship as a Lokean myself.

I am looking for 3-4 people who would be willing to do some kind of Zoom/online interview about their practices and worship/work with Loki and compare them to myself and each other. I'd keep any information anonymous.

My DMs are open so please reach out :)

So grateful to find this community! First post- sharing my recent altar reset with my seraphic mathematician version of Loki. This appeared as I created a 'soul collage' as part of an intense 6-day retreat I just returned home from. So grateful to get to share this imagery with similarly-engaged folk.

Hii! I'm new to witchcraft and paganism. I've been working with Loki for about a 2 weeks now and I want to improve my altar for him. I saw on the internet that many people give him paintings and drawings. So since I'm an artist i made this for him. I want to place it on his altar but I'm scared it might be inappropriate... or that he might get mad at me or something. What should I do? (Also sorry for my bad English but I'm Italian...)

Hi!

This might be a little long, I apologize in advance!

I’m still a beginner at witchcraft, but I have been practicing for several years. October of last year I played around with the idea of working with/worshipping a deity (Loki). I bought a few books and read a lot of stuff online. I really loved all the stories I read, all the compassion Loki shows for their followers, and I made a tiny ritual where I also told Loki this and used a pendulum to communicate with them (but then I got scared that I wasn’t actually talking to Loki so I haven’t used a pendulum with Loki since, out of fear… oops).

I still didn’t really get (still don’t) what deity work actually is compared to worship. So I decided: ”hey maybe I’m okay with just worshipping Loki and having someone to pray to, maybe it doesn’t have to be a working relationship, maybe I don’t need a two way connection” (I was lying to myself but scared of rejection so I said this to protect myself).

I ordered a deity identification from a reader I trust (out of curiosity), and I told them about how I had started worshipping Loki, I told her how another reader had confirmed another deity for me, I also mentioned how I had worshipped another deity before/still was occasionally.

What I had paid her for was to see if there was another deity around (as that was the option I had available), but she said she would also confirm whether or not the deities I had listed was around me (or however that works, I don’t know).

The first thing that happened was that Loki took over and she said ”oh I don’t think you are just worshipping Loki, I think you are working with him”.

Then she confirmed the deity the other reader had confirmed for me, she identified a new deity and then told me the deity I had worshipped before was not around (which really bummed me out and made me feel like I had just been faking the relationship with said deity and this has definitely impacted my relationship with Loki, it makes me doubt everything, if anything is even real or if I’ve just made it up. Again).

I had a spiritual psychosis (a little over 2 years ago now) when I was allegedly working with/worshipping the deity she confirmed was not around me. I thought I was doing all these meditations with said deity. I thought that they would help me with all sorts of things (even if I didn’t give any offerings… yeah I know, but I was very out of it during my psychosis, had many delusions and thought the gods could read my mind in a way that made me really paranoid and fearful). I thought the deity was present and guiding me through the stressful time I had. Turns out I was just making up these experiences of being helped by them. Which made me feel so rejected. I was vulnerable and had asked the deity for help in that state and been rejected. Big blow to my ego. It made me feel like “I’m not good enough when I am unwell” and confirmed my limiting belief of “no one loves me”.

The thing is, I didn’t really do anything differently after she told me that I was working with Loki. The things I do is just pray/talk to/with Loki (I go periods of time with not talking to them due to my insecurities). I try to give weekly offerings and sometimes I do tarot readings (but I’m really bad at tarot).

I can’t sense spirits but sometimes I can sense energy surges in my body – but I’m not experienced enough to know if it means anything or if I’m just making it up.

I really want to work with Loki, but I struggle and cry a lot over my fear of rejection. I’m scared to ask for things like signs or confirmation, so I never get any. Sometimes I see spiders, but it could be coincidences.

I want to deepen the connection (even though my anxiety tells me there is no connection and that Loki can’t hear me when I talk to them and that even if they could hear me, they would choose not to listen).

It’s all just… a lot.

And I’m not sure what to do from here. I feel like no matter what I do it will never be good enough, so I keep myself in this never-ending spiral of approaching Loki anew and then getting insecure/scared and pulling away. It feels awful. It feels like getting rejected again and again due to my anxiety.

I want practical advice on how to work with Loki and how to get confirmation from Loki that they’re actually present. Or just… encouragement/advice on my situation.

Thank you for reading this, I’m really scared of posting this as it contains a lot of very personal stuff, but I just can’t keep myself stuck in this loop. I never get anywhere. It feels awful, and it's very draining.

so Loki wanted me to get candles so i did, now ALL of my family think im an arsonist/pyromaniac, im 24 YEARS OLD, and they all in some way have called me irresponsible or a child. IM NOT TAKING THEM DOWN, i dont want to and i have a feeling that nor does Loki; i should probably tell u that in late 2016 my uncle died in an electrical fire in a caravan/flat. i only ever have 3 or 4 tealight candles on Lokis' altar at any one time (one or two burning at a time) i NEVER leave them burning alone or un monitored and follow manufacturers' instruction down to the letter, i dispose of them well enough, i melt down the wax, and make sure my lighter is clean and wax free(ive got an electric one), but no, im a danger to the family. let it be known that i wont blame Loki and that i made a choice to get live candles, that being said LOKI, YOU LITTLE SHIT!

Out of curiosity, are there any peeps here who know a good bit about music production or even sound design? Or 3D-modelling, or programming, or animation? I totally don't have anything Norse-themed planned or something, totally not, I'm just curious.

Very curious.

:)
