The morning after the trip when Velocia came to life I was very chill. I allowed myself to take my time while getting ready for work because I had this magick card up my sleeve. Ate a slow breakfast, was online a lot, reading about Fotamecus, the chaotic time god, and was very amazed by that concept. They will be a good match, I decided, Velocia and Fotamecus, speed and time, what a perfect combination, they should work together.
Fotamecus sigil^^
I went down to hitch a ride and was very confident, but something happened; shitloads of cars were approaching but none of them stopped for me. What the hell Velocia?? I was starting to get mad then I heard this song playing in my head, as a response from Velocia:
"I trusted you! Now you're full of attitude!!..."
That lil' bitch was giving me attitude! Like what tha fuck?!? I gave you life yesterday!! Maybe she got too strong and felt she doesn't need me anymore? So out of rage I called on Fotamecus and told him he can eat that bitch if he likes, I have no use for her anymore.
I felt them fighting like crazy, he is strong, lots of people giving him power, and he is older, it seemed like Velocia stood no chance, but she had the advantage of locality. That's her territory, not his, he's new in here, and still weak compared to where he originated. While they were fighting, I was busy tryin to hitch a ride, but failed miserably. Then it hit me.
I started talking to Velocia and Fotamecus with my most commanding and authoritarian voice, like they were my soldiers who are making mess, I told them to cut the bullshit and stop the fight, or else I'll do whatever I can to destroy them both. Also I told them that if they will learn to behave and work together, I'll do the exact opposite and make them great and known. Immediately the fussing and fighting stopped, the environment cooled down, there was a burst of wind and someone was stopping next to me, offering me a ride straight to work.
I kept on this attitude for sometime, making them work together, until they became friends and allies, and I was never late to work again, even if I took my mornings real slow. I even set a Facebook gallery of all of the sigils I'm using, sharing it with only a few friends so they can use and contribute, and on Velocia's sigil I wrote, among other stuff, that she is the "active right hand of Fotamecus", tying them together.
She kept on teasing me from time to time though, but I realized a key concept -
Velocia feeds also on stress, on excitement!
It was really common of her that I will get no rides from time to time, reach some level of stress and then all of a sudden - someone shows up taking me exactly where I needed. This happened mostly at times when she felt I wasn't giving her enough attention and feeding her, therefore I tried my best to come up with creative new ways of charging her. So I started tagging her on highways, bus stops, trains, and even promised her that next time I'm on a plane - she'll be tagged there as well. I started speaking about her with more and more people so somone else will use it, ultimately making her an egregore, but that didn't happen until my flight to Ozora festival.
On the plane she reminded me my promise, so I went on tagging her wherever I could, then also on trains in Budapest, and on the plane back home. She was super happy for that and so grateful that she told me she have a surprise for me, and I will encounter it on my way to the next shift at work.
^^On some bus station
The day has come to go back to work and I was on my way, hitch hiking. It was Shabbat/Saturday, so no public transportation across the state (IsraHell........) so I needed to hitch all the way and couldn't rely on getting to a bus station and waiting for the bus, but I have done this in the past with my dear Velocia and I also had her promise... Oh and I took a small amount of acid right before I left home, for the extra "juice"... What can I do, I just love Lucy and she loves me back. 😍 😉
Started rolling my way happy, hitching a ride to a bus station near my work, and was waiting for another ride, then heard her telling me to look to my left, on the ground, there I saw something shining. I got closer and found a marble, and felt Velocia telling me that this is a present from her, a talisman I can use to focus my energy on her even more whenever needed. I was extremely grateful and thanked her, than had a ride straight to work, there I had a day with crazy synchronicities, I'll tell you all about it in another post.
^^Velocia's talisman
Since that incident, working with Velocia became easier. Once I was hitch hiking home, holding my hitch hiker's board with the Velocia sigil, I took out Velocia's amulet, also wore my Hematite amulet that was dipped with lavender oil (a magickal amulet from So Misti, an egregore that helps make magick manifest faster and easier) and started praying and calling for Velocia. Moments later a car stopped, it was my neighbour, taking me straight home, and when I got in the car there was this song playing on the radio:
^^"You can do magic! You can have anything that you desire!.."
I became confident in Velocia's power. So confident, that I began taking it for granted and stopped feeding her. Then One day I was trying to get home from friends place. I got off the bus somewhere really near my town, and began to hitch hike, using the board with the sigil, the magick amulet and Velocia's amulet. No one was even looking at me so I decided to pray, and once I've finished, a car stopped next to me.
I felt good and was like "Yay! Thank you Velocia!" but then something strange happened. The people got out of the car, then told me "We are the police, and you are being detained for a search". They showed me their cards that proves they were actual cops and began searching my bag. I had some weed in my underpants and got extremely stressed, then they checked my hand and saw Velocia's marble. They asked what that is and I told them it's an amulet for hitch hiking, then started laughing 'cause I understood what the hell is going on, and why.
That fucking bitch feeds on stress, and since I wasn't charging her, and she was even nagging me about it, she decided to stage something for food. The cops couldn't find anything and left me alone, driving away, then, moments later, I had a ride straight home, still shaking and overwhelmed by that entire situation.
Amazing how fast she was growing and what she can do now.
^^The Velocian sigil with So Misti's sigil as wheels
After that anecdote I kept on charging and feeding her. That's why I got so surprised when, one night, I was trying to get home after work and there were absolutely no rides. I stayed at the junction for like 30 minutes waiting, but nothing. I had the magick amulet of So Misti on me, I had the board with Velocia's sigil, I had the fucking amulet she gave me, I focused my intent on that but still - nothing. I started asking her what the fuck could she possibly want now. Another drawing? you get it girl. So I painted her sigil everywhere on the junction, then, with high hopes, kept on trying to hitch a ride.
Still fucking nothing! What tha fuck girl?!??
So I just sat down and tried to communicate with her, to understand what can she possibly want now. Then she flashed a picture in my mind, the pic of her sigil on the Facebook gallery. I asked her "Well, what about that?", so she reminded me of what I wrote about her being the active right hand of Fotamecus, she told me that she likes the dude, but wants to break free, to be independent, they really do work well together, but she cannot continue living under his will. I erased that phrase, and right after doing so got a call from a friend telling me he is heading home now from a place really nearby and can pick me up. I was totally amazed, and got home quickly and safely.
Since then she has grown even more, helping me out in crazy situations, and also more people has begun working with her. She's an egregore now, maybe on her way to become the godform of the road here.
My dear Velocia! Goddess of the roads, patron of the lost hitch hikers, deity of speed.
Maybe one day you'll have a spaceship named after you, or even a time machine. 😉😍😆
