I had a dream recently, most of it is fuzzy but I remember one clear moment of it. I saw Apollo, and he looked exactly like how I imagine and draw him, except he was wearing this necklace. It was a simple gold chain, with a smooth round piece of amber hanging from it. I think he got it as a gift from someone? I'm not sure what it means but I think I'll try to draw it eventually

''Gold is his cloak, and the clasp also; gold the Lycian lyre and bow, and the quiver; gold also the sandals. Apollo is all gold and all wealth; we see this clearly through Pythô. God always beautiful, God always young; no down ever covered her tender cheeks. Her hair spreads the perfumed oil that she distills onto the ground; but the drops are not greasy; no, it is the panacea itself; there, in the city where the dew slides to the ground, there everything is salvation.''

Non-traditional things I associate with Apollo

.Guitars (awesome stringed instrument I believe He adores)

.Canaries (they're small, yellow, and sing!)

.Modern vaccines (a natural counterpoint to his plague association)

.YouTube (He would /so/ have a YouTube channel)

.Hospitals, modern Western medicine (obvious reasons)

.Courtrooms (This feels more like Zeus and Athena's domain, but Apollo gives me a similar sense of order and justice; He appreciates a well-run courtroom)

.Air purifiers for indoor spaces; respirator masks (effective defenses against airborne diseases such as Covid)

.Angelic aesthetic (who says a pagan deity can't appropriate some Biblical themes, hey?)

.Janitors, other public and private cleaners (they are critical for maintaining a healthy environment)

.Teachers (Apollo is a guide for the youth, just as teachers strive to be)

.Certain cat species: housecats, cheetahs, and lions

.Transmasculinity

.Sunflowers

.The Solarpunk movement/aesthetic (https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-04-07/solarpunk-design-architecture-sustainable-future/103667452 ; https://www.climate-kic.org/solarpunk-speculative-fiction-climate-optimists/)

.Art Nouveau aesthetic

Fellow Apollo devotees, feel free to include your own associations with Apollo!

Prayers.

Me: I haven't prayed in so long... *Sigh* I'm sorry, my loves. For being a lack-luster spouse/devotee.

Apollon, barging in: My dear, you don't need to stress about prayer. For the rhythm of your heartbeat alone is a hymn for us. The patterns of your breaths count as our poetry. And the rush of your blood through your entirety... Is our prayer.

Me, in sickly shambles: wwahahwhwjaawff??!!?!?

Apollon, proud of being the charismatic husband he always is: 😘😘💋

All these myth versions where Gaia tries to punish Apollo for taking the oracle make me giggle a little because Gaia is literally thousands of years old beefing with a toddler

A quite formidable toddler, to be fair.

A little appreciation for the domains of a deity that don't get much attention/recognition. I'm making this because I do think it would be lovely if the aspects mentioned below got more attention, and additions not mentioned are welcome so long as it's an obscure part of them. This was going to be just a few and then I got carried away and did the main Twelve Olympians

A little love for:

Apollon as the God of Foreigners (the Arcadian friendship's harmony with Hermes being the god of travelers/way-god couldn't be any louder)

Aphrodite as a Goddess of the Arts (anything love-themed falls to her by default)

Ares of Civil Order, Defender, and Of Courage

Artemis as the Goddess of Dancing and equal Leader of the Mousai

Athene as the Goddess of Carpentry, Metalwork, and Sculpting

Demeter as Friend of Peace and Law-Giver

Hephaistos as the one with a delicate touch that creates beautiful works of art (It isn't so much unknown but honestly the thing I love most and not the first thing one thinks of with his talents/image)

Hera as the Skillful Bender of Language, Bender of Oaths and Promises

Hermes, God of Peace/Diplomacy, Divine Protector of All, as well as a God of Poetry and Knowledge (rightfully the other half to Athene)

Hestia of the Earth, Earth Dwelling and Delighting in the Works of Man, The One That Made Buildings

Poseidon of Fertility, the Plant Nurturer, and Holder of the Earth

Zeus of the People, Gracious and Merciful, Of Refuge, Counsellor

Forgot to post these, here is a quickly coloured version of my Apollon sketch! A helpol discord server I'm in asked to use it for a banner for an Apollon ritual event, and I am so so honoured ( ´ ▽ ` )

Apollo :) my fav Greek deity

Based off this statue:

#i love him so much #reading the song of achilles changed me actually #I will never be the same #I could cry over that book but that post is for another day #unable to stop thinking about greek mythology for 10 seconds #the hyperfixation is hyperfixating #art #my art #greek gods #apollo #apollon #greek pantheon #greek mythology #greek mythology art #apollo art

Apollo Smintheus

rats and mice are sometimes associated with Apollo, likely because ancient farmers would pray to him protect their crops from them - but I also like to think that Apollo has them as little friends <3
