Happy Deipnon! I definitely messed it up

Hi, it's my very first deipnon, and I messed it up really bad I think.

I don't have much to offer, so I left her some: honey, dried figs, rosemary, dried dandelion, and a biscoff biscuit.

I also didn't clean or cleanse my apartment, I have no idea how to do intentional wards, I have a protection spell I used from a dried bay leaf a bit ago.

I also did a tarot reading at my altar, and got the strong urge in my gut to leave. Leave right then and don't return to it. I said, "okay I'll leave you alone now." The tarot reading was very interesting. I don't remember it but it said that I'm broke and I've been making bad financial decisions lately (I have) and i need to fix it.

That night I didn't do anything spiritual. I just went on my phone, but something felt off about it. I had this thought that I should be doing spiritual work, but I'm in a lot of pain (i have fibromyalgia and its been hitting really bad lately) and i couldn't really get up. I had tea and some biscoff and nodded off because of how much pain I've been in. I never do that.

I woke up several times last night from weird lucid dreams. The first one was weird and all I remember is it gave me a sense of danger. The second time was the same, but near the end this woman had this jar she was whipping something up in. I asked her what it was, and she said it was a protection spell. She didn't say if it was for me or not, but after that, I had a third weird lucid dream, but it was a lessened sense of danger.

I don't know what to make of it, but I've definitely learned my lesson: put up some fkin wards, more protections, and learn the craft before doing anything with the spiritual world.

I put a post in here last night actually about my cat actually. It was weird how she was reacting to it. At a certain point, she intentionally sat right in front of it with her back turned, and she was irritated for the rest of the night. I thought she was being silly, now I'm not so sure.

I need some advice.

Finding wild synchronicities with Hekate during a major life transition

Hey everyone,
I’m reaching out because I’ve recently been struck by a series of synchronicities that feel too specific to ignore, and I’m trying to understand my connection to Hekate better. I’m currently 23 and recently ended a defining 6 year long relationship. I am firmly at a "crossroads" in my life, learning to love myself and step into my own independence.
As I’ve been navigating this dark, transitional space, I started looking into Hekate’s archetype and realized how weirdly my life aligns with her imagery

I map out exactly to her traditional guard. I own exactly three black dogs. Knowing they represent her spectral hounds and are historically viewed as protectors/absorbers of negative energy during transitions feels incredibly heavy right now. They are my living anchors. I’ve always had a strange connection to wolves and dogs since I was little.

My ex actually physically mirrored traditional descriptions of her pale skin, black hair, and constantly wearing black. It feels like I was living alongside this energy externally for six years, and now that it's over, the archetype is switching on inside me.

I am a February 10th Aquarius and a Life Path 8. I’ve read that the 8 path is all about Self-Sovereignty vs. Codependency, which fits Hekate’s independent, sovereign nature perfectly.
I’m an artist (I write music, poetry, and stories), and my subconscious seems to be using all of this as raw creative fuel to heal. I don't necessarily practice formal rituals, but the psychological and spiritual resonance is undeniable right now.

I would love to hear from people who work with or study her archetype. What are your personal experiences with her energy? Why do you think she is showing up so loudly in my life right now, and what advice do you have for someone standing at this specific threshold?
Thanks in advance for sharing your insights.
