Your deities love you.
Haven’t tidied their altars in forever? They understand.
Don’t have the motivation to give them offerings? They get it.
You haven’t left bed for a long time? They still care about you.
Aren’t devoting time to them lately? They don’t mind
Forgot an offering? That’s alright. They forgive you.
Fucked something up? They’re not going to ditch you for your mistakes.
Decide to take a break from deity work? Totally cool, they’ll still be here for you.
Your deities understand your struggles. Even your mental health related issues. They get it, and they love you regardless. Just do your best for them, and they’ll appreciate it.

I'm so tired of practicing alone. Physically, yes; but i also just feel so separated from the community.
I want people to stop saying there's a specific way to pray, worship, work with, devote, honor, or practice within hellenic polytheism.
But on the physical hand, i want people to dance in the sunlight with me as we pray to our gods. I want to be surrounded by like minded people as we practice what makes us and our religion ours.

Hail Apollo;
God before whom princes and poets kneel.
I have no words to describe how beautiful you are and how beautiful my life is because of you. Every day, I am blessed by you. Thank you for gifting me with your patronage and your love, and I pray that my love for you is known in return.

A reminder that feeling compelled to begin worshipping/researching a god is also a sign and you don’t need to see some major sign in order to begin worshipping!
I began worshipping Lord Apollon because I was interested in him for some reason, and that’s led me to many years of researching/worshipping him! He never came to me through animal symbolism or anything major/visible but my worship of him is something that feels so right, even when I have a drought and struggle to actively worship, I never feel too worried or uncomfortable to return to normal because he is my god and I felt and still feel like I was meant to worship him
The idea that you need to see physical signs in order to begin worshipping/building a relationship with a god is ridiculous and should never stop you! Think about all the other gods you don’t feel compelled to worship and compare it to those that you do, and if you want to begin worshipping loads of gods, then go for it! There’s no right or wrong way to begin worship and only you know what’s the right thing for yourself

glory & song to apollo! i sing to thee, golden among gods!
may this song be as sweet as your own, may my fingers
be as nimble as yours — teach me, oh glorious one of
radiance, to shine as you do. honey touches your lips, spills
golden as you turn your face and illuminate. golden god,
swift and reaching, may my words & song be a delight
to your ears. i pray for your wisdom, for your ever learning
heart to teach me. i wish to see as you see, to know as you
know — the world opens itself like a flower freshly blooming
in the golden light of your day. grace my fingers with your golden
touch, inspire me to do as you do! oh, sing! rejoice! delight!
may the world open up before me, every place that embraces
the golden light of your sun, and may i have the boldness to
go! give your light to my eyes, to my hands, to my feet so that
i may go where even the shades fear — unbowed & unbent.

Diana Awakening Apollo by Carl Bertling
I cannot describe how obsessed I am with this painting.
Here you have Lady Artemis. Regal, majestic, brimming with divine breath in her role as lightbringer.
And then Lord Apollon - 😭
Carl Bertling I'm on my way to ur house as we speak

an average day with Apollo
me: gosh, i’m feeling so unmotivated and self-conscious right now. i’ll never be good enough to do musical theatre, maybe i should give up on my dreams of performing and just do something i hate for money
Apollo: NOT ON MY WATCH (present for my audition that i dedicated to him, now I’m in the top 5 choices for BOTH female leads in the end of year show)
me: nvm i’m gonna keep performing i love you <3
in other words i literally cannot explain how much i adore Apollo and how grateful i am that he’s with me every step of the way - and knows how to kick me back into gear when life is shitty 💛🧡
