Devotional acts? Nah bro, im doing emotional acts.

Crying over how much I love my gf as an emotional act to Aphrodite

Rapid messaging my friends about my many interests as an emotional act to Hermes

Letting myself laugh a little when I’m singing as an emotional act to Apollon

I begin to sing of Pallas Athena, the glorious goddess, bright-eyed, inventive, unbending of heart, pure virgin, saviour of cities, courageous, Tritogeneia.

Homeric hympn to Athena.

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

Hello! Could you make an altar guide for Goddess Nyx? And without wanting to bother you too much, Nyx is a Hellenic deity??

Just curious, I'm new to this and I wanted to know if I'm Hellenic for worshiping the Goddess Nyx.

Thanks for your attention

– Mel

Nyx is definitely considered a hellenic deity, and she plays a not-so-insignificant role in the Greek origin story. You don't have to consider yourself a Hellenic pagan if you don't want to though, it's up to you. There's really nothing special you have to do either way.

NYX

Colors: black, dark blue, purple for association with the night, anything galaxy patterned

Offerings: blackberries, blueberries, plum, dew (morning is fine but after sunset is best), dark feathers, dark chocolate, night-blooming flowers (like moonflower or wisteria), black tea/coffee, mugwort

Crystals: obsidian, black tourmaline, labradorite, moonstone (especially black moonstone), selenite, lapis lazuli, amethyst, smokey quartz

Animals: owl

also, she is associated with symbols of keys and veils/cloaks, so during your practice you might look into veiling (highly recommend if you're neurodivergent too!)

Khaire, Apollo Musagetes! Patron of the arts, son of the heavenly Zeus and the gentle-natured Leto, with the works of art I have dedicated to you, grant me the inspiration to create more in your name. Guide my hand across the canvas and allow your golden beauty to be reflected in the sight. I pray to you for the gift of the arts to be enjoyed and celebrated, to have my work spoken with reverence. Warm-hearted and gifted Phoebus, hear my prayer and look kindly upon me and know how I praise and honor you so.

Wondering if my sudden interest in Athena has anything to do with my current aro awakening 🤔

It's definitely not the only contributing factor. I'm a writer and she's a major part of my story.

But I'm having a really difficult time with the possibility of being aromantic and yeah... Maybe it's something she could help me with?

Pagan Temples

yall pagan temples were SO cool, such a shame that Theodosius and his christian amigos decided to burn them all down.

like imagine going to a Hellenic temple weekly and in different areas there is a worship area for each Olympian god. Like a MASSIVE public altar in each corner and you are given a candle and lighter when you enter and you can choose the deity area of your choice, and weekly there will kinda like, be a public praying session, aloud guided by someone at each area. Like they will recruit someone who worships each of the Olympians and it will be their job everyday to go down and take care of the altar of their god and to pray alloud.

man that would be so cool :)

I just did a tarot reading for Lady Hestia to see if she would like to work with me. I asked some basic questions like, what do you think you could help me with, what could I help you with, ect.

When it was finally time to ask her if she would like to work with me the Strength Card flew out and landed perfectly on my lap. I looked at the meaning and was a bit confused, so I shuffled it back in and said "not every card that flies out is applicable"

I pull a different card and suddenly get this feeling to check which cards are associated with Lady Hestia...

Strength is one of her cards -_-

Note to self, don't doubt your readings, check your self and make sure you have all the information before disregarding something

I'll never get over that person who insisted that you shouldn't offer sex/orgasms to Aphrodite bc it's is miasmic. I hope you also don't involve Artemis with childbirth, Hera and Zeus with weddings, or pray to Hermes to help the dead pass over, bc I have some bad news for you...

I just want to preface this by saying I know that there are issues surrounding some of these terms, but I also know some people use them

This poll is also mainly for those that worship the Greek pantheon but others are welcome to vote as well!

When you step into sunlight, you honor Apollo. When you admire the moon, you honor Artemis. When you admire cloud shapes, you honor Hera. When you smell petrichor, you honor Zeus. When you laugh at a joke, you honor Hermes. When your body twitches to dance at a particularly upbeat music, you honor Dinoysus. When you enjoy the first bite of your breakfast, you honor Demeter. When you choose your peace over any conflict, you honor Athena. When you warm yourself up by sheltering yourself in blanket, you honor Hestia. When you listen to Ocean sounds, you honor Poseidon. When you smell flowers, you honor Persephone. When you admire the coolness of first day of Autumn, you honor Hades. When you wear your favourite jewellery, you honor Hephaestus. When you smile, you honor Aphrodite. When you exercise, you honor Ares. When you light a torch in a dark room, you honor Hekate.

Your body is a shrine to Gods, your being an act of devotion for them. You, by yourself, are enough for them.

THIS TEMPLE IS ANTI TERF/RADFEM/GENDER CRITICAL

There is a large TERF issue in hellenism communities, I'm not sure why considering how pro trans hellenism is, but I do want to say that no TERFS are welcome to The Temple of Hypnos. You're telling me Hypnos would support people who deny others their dreams? Hypnos would support terfs who bring harm and stress to trans people like me? Don't make me laugh. You're an insult to all hellenics, may you never rest and may you never dream
