Hey @amtrak-official? Am I allowed to preform complex pagan rituals on the train during my commute?

Lord Apollons light shining, warming my skin on this cold april day. Stroking my face lovingly, bright Lord, be with me through the day.

I remember when I started practicing and praying, and I used 'babe' without realizing to some deities like 'good morning babe' because I just use 'babe' (platonicaly) with EVERYONE I'm comfortable with.

And I started panicking and saying sorry before realizing that it's not a crime omg

It's just that I'm comfortable with them, they won't be mad at you if you treat them as your friend, you can joke with your deities, as long as your respectful its fine!

Don't overthink, if it sounds okay with YOUR practice then it's okay

If being formal with your Deities is better from you then it is 🫶🏻

Don't feel bad about how you're practicing, you're doing well, be respectful and everything will be fine 🫶🏻

#english isnt my first language so i hope it makes sense #believe in yourself and follow your instincts it'll be fine #aphrodite worship #hellenic polytheism #aphrodite deity #athena worship #athena deity #hermes worship #apollo worship #hellenic pagan

When i was a beginner at witchcraft and paganism back in 2019, witchtok was at its peak popularity.

And i remember seeing those tiktok skits where witches re-tell the messages they got from their deities in an overly simplified way.

Then i was wondering... How the

f🐬ck did that witchtoker's deity just tell them: ,,i want waffle fries!"

Beginner me was so confused 😵‍💫

So what i want to say is:

Don't be fooled. Sometimes witchy influencers (specifically TikTokers) try to oversimplify the messages they get from their deities, in order to fit them in the 15 second video format with a meme audio for comedy.

Don't be insecure if you don't get deep meaningful messages about your gods! ❤️ We are all different. Some of you maaaay get such messages, some may not! That's oki!

Create your own mythology

No seriously

The poets of our mythology worshipped these deities too, if they create it why can't you?

Recognize the symbolism of the gods, recognize the symbolism of these tales. I consider my play of my dnd character Saix to be a devotional act to Hypnos, as he was a cleric to Remnus(God of Sleep), and ended up taking the role of sleep god for Himself. Do not be too strict, for the symbols of the Gods are fluid in their interpretation.

They will love what you do to literature that features them, even if it may put them in an "evil" light, in hellenism there isn't pure good or evil, only balance

Yesterday my roommate and I were at a local metaphysical store, and I wanted to get crystals to use as stones for my altar to Hermes Propylaios and Apollon Agyeius we keep by the door. I found a sunstone, but it didn’t feel right. I really wanted something in an obelisk shape, similar to the shape of stones dedicated to Apollon Agyeius in ancient times. I picked up a pretty orange obelisk that I felt drawn to; imagine my surprise when the store owner said, “That’s Golden Healer.” Y’all. Apollo picked his own rock.

Just now I performed a ritual for Dionysus. The interaction I felt with him was unique. During the ritual from being completely serious and sober, I somehow was feeling more and more high which was interesting... Besides, I immediately turned on my ritual music and started dancing. This experience was AMAZING and surprising.

Being pagan is really funny sometimes because I was in a car with a (very wonderful and skilled) 16 year old driving recently, and at one point because our town is chaotic they had to make what was essentially a glorified U-turn in the middle of a busy intersection.

Cue me, despite not working with Hermes, mentally going "Hermes!! I know I don't work with you but you're cool and I am familiar enough with the Greek pantheon to feel comfortable just kind of saying hi to you guys, please keep us safe I am stressed-"

As they turned, my friend just said "Okay guys, fucking pray" and it took all of my self control not to blurt out "I just did."

I still told them later, though, they thought it was hysterical.

I've started getting into witchcraft recently, and I've decided to start worshiping and working with Apollo. And I don't have an altar yet, but I jokingly asked him if he wanted some dried banana chips, because I was eating them. And I felt him guiding me, and my hand, which I took as yes. The vibe I got, he seemed excited about it.

So yeah, my first offering to Apollo, is dried bananas. Just some banana chips on a shelf. That's Apollo's altar right now

I’ve seen a lot of people post about going to the gym/work out as a devotional act to ares, but I think it’s also fair to point out that Hermes’ domain includes sport and athletics, so I propose an addition;

Working out / training as a devotional act to Hermes

Prayer to Hypnos for Good Memory

"Oh Bearer of the branch of lethe, God of Illusion and God of Sleep,

May you hear this prayer and answer my cry, for I call to you Hypnos. Lord of the songbirds and lord of the flowers.

Sleep God who rest in Erebos, I worship and devote myself to you.

May you aid my memory, Oh Hypnos

May I remember what is important, and may I remember you. May I sense your presence always, and bless my memory you shall. Thank you Hypnos for listening to my prayer."
