Do Wiccan gods accept offerings?

I know this might be another one of those beginner questions, but it's something I've been thinking about because my altar is a little empty, and where I live, it's very easy to get fruits and things that are commonly offered to the gods.

My question is whether they accept anything you offer them, or if the offerings have to be connected to their symbolism and energy.

And while I'm at it, does this help improve your relationship with them so that they can intercede on your behalf or help you... Or am I misunderstanding what "making offerings" actually means?

Help with a creativity spell jar

Good morning everyone. I'm making this post so that those of you who are more experienced with creating spell jars can give me some guidance.

I'm a writer, and like almost everyone here, I practice witchcraft.

Recently, I found a recipe for a spell jar on one of those free apps on the Play Store. It's called "Creativity Boost."

The recipe is as follows:

  • A glass jar or bottle (energetically cleansed)
  • Himalayan salt / Pink salt: To promote positive energy
  • Carnelian: For energy flow + vitality
  • Citrine: To increase motivation + creativity
  • Sodalite: To promote self-expression
  • Rosemary: For a creative boost
  • Rose petals: For self-confidence + creativity
  • Cloves: To clear the mind and creative blocks

All the ingredients are placed inside the jar, and the jar is then sealed with blue candle wax. Personally, though, I was planning on using sealing wax because I think it would look nicer.

I have a few questions:

1. Does the appearance of the jar matter in any way? I'm asking because I was planning to use a bottle shaped like a fat woman, and I'm not sure whether that could affect the spell somehow.

2. Are the ingredients and their associations correct, or should I change/add anything?
It's worth mentioning that I mostly practice tarot reading, and I haven't really made spell jars before, aside from the classic protection jar.

3. Should I take advantage of the energy of the full moon on August 28th, or are these kinds of spells not THAT affected by lunar factors?

Thank you in advance for your help and understanding.

How do you guys imagine the God and Goddess look?

First of all, I should clarify that I'm relatively new to Wicca, and I'm asking this question more out of genuine curiosity.

I've been trying to start putting together an altar for the Wiccan Gods, but unfortunately, I haven't been able to find anything that resembles how I imagine them.

The descriptions I've found of both of them tend to be rather vague, and in many cases, they're referred to by names like Hecate or Cernunnos, who are figures that technically belong to other mythologies.

I know they're mostly considered archetypes, but I'd still like to have some kind of visual representation of who I'm making offerings to.

How do you guys imagine them?

I have these statues saved on Etsy to buy, but I feel like they're rather simple and hardly do justice to what we call the "Gods."
