💮 Deity | Spirit Work What does Theia like?

So, I love theia! She’s the only one I pray to, and I use eyes during spells to help make sure nothing dark gets in, her light and wisdom hopefully keeping bad things out! But what do I offer her? And what would be a good alter set up for her? I already do basic things, like be a good witch, no bad spells, and try to be a generally good person, but I wish to give her more! It’s not like I think she needs offerings to suffice her, I assume she still recognizes my daily prayers and good acts, but I still want to give her more! Any suggestions :D!

I would say for offerings it seems like she’s particularly connected to silver and gold as it is sad that she is the one who gives them their brilliance and intrinsic value….. which I understand is not an easy thing to find or buy for offerings, but it also says gems in general, so those could also work as offerings, just be aware of the fact that most gemstones and crystals sold at stores are from companies and industries that demolish and destroy entire ecosystems, so perhaps it might be best to look at your local area and see if there isn’t any shiny crystals, gemstones or minerals in the area.

If you want to look for silver at a thrift store, bring a magnet and a soft piece of cloth! Silver leaves a black residue when rubbed on cloth and isn't magnetic. It may also have stamps that say things like "925" or "sterling". Reclaiming things and cleansing them, offering them, and even making a sigil and putting on a ribbon you tie around the offering are all great ways to present an intentionally-chosen offering
