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

officially my birthday and just wanted to express my gratitude for this little community ❤️

I absolutely love the kindness and support here, and the sharing of knowledge that happens here. Hellenic polytheism is one of the greatest gifts in my life.

I love being able to worship Lord Apollo, Lady Athena, and Lady Aphrodite 🫶 Here’s to 22!

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.

Hello! Any advice or suggestions for prayers or offerings to ask Lord Apollon for healing or temporary relief from pain? (ie period cramps, joint pain) have a wonderful day/night! <3

Hey there!! I hope you're doing okay <3 I totally understand needing some help with chronic pain and such. I have chronic migraines, and sometimes I pray to Apollon and give him offerings, as well!

For me, I do the offering part after the chronic pain goes away. When the pain hits, it's hard to move to be honest. So, most of the time, I'll pray and promise an offering later!

I've looked around a lot for any specific prayers to do with chronic pain, healing, etc, and I can't find like, anything. Sooo instead of giving you a real prayer, ima give you some tips!

1- The structure of a Greek prayer is invocation, argument, petition. The invocation part is basically calling out to the deity, using their name and any specific epithets/qualities you want to address. So for Apollon and healing, you'd use Apollon's epithets for his healing aspect. The argument is just justifying why the deity should help you. For example, "If I have ever offered you (example), set up an altar," and any other thing you've done for him. The petition is what you're asking for. Here is where you'd say, "Please help me with my joint pain," or something to do with healing.

2- For me, prayer is laid back. I use formal prayer a lot, don't get me wrong, but I also just talk to my deities. Apollon is completely fine if you just say- "Apollon, I need help. Please can you make this stop/go away?"

3- it's also totally okay to write down the prayer and read it! You don't have to memorize anything.

4- if you're in pain, you don't have to do the whole posture thing when praying. The gods understand, I promise :)

As for offerings, anything you usually give him is fine! Once you receive your answer from the prayer (hopefully the pain goes away!!!), you can give him anything from water to jewelry to crystals to whatever else. You can also do a devotional act in honor of him! It really does not matter what *kind* of offering it is, as long as it's an offering made with good intentions.

I hope this helps!! Take care of yourselves 🫶

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.

Apollo and Artemis 🏹🌿✨

I really enjoyed to make this piece! I did the lineart traditionally and painted it digitally

This piece was based on an attic red-figure cup from the 4th century BCE

Isn't it actually so beautiful that deities take the time to try and guide and teach us? How wonderful is it that they care for us so deeply that they'd share their wisdom, knowledge, and insight so freely? I think a deity's love is something to be cherished, and I cherish this. 🧡✨

Hey there. Normalize unconventional divination or worship. Just because it's not in a book or an article does not invalidate what helps you.

Is your relationship with your deity different from other practitioners? Who cares. It's your personal journey. This isn't an organized religion, you have the ability to pace yourself, think outside the box and learn what works for you as an individual.

"Apollo is just a uwu soft sunshine boy!" Apollo, the God who guarantees freedom?

Apollo, bringer of disease as well as health?

Apollo, who without his light, all life would cease to exist?

Apollo, God of the heatwaves, blinding lights, the chemical compounds that birthed and maintain a star you can't even look upon without hurting yourself?

Apollo, God of music and poetry, raw emotion made physical through melodies and words sewn together, compositions and words that remain timeless?

That Apollo?

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

☀️Deities☀️

I see so many people criticizing others over their relationships, or lack thereof, with their deities, so here are some reminders:

Not having deities is okay.

Having just a devotional relationship with your deities is okay.

Having a working relationship with your deities is okay.

Playing games with your deities is okay.

Harmless jokes with your deities are okay.

Doing fun things with your deities is okay.

Doing devotional offerings for your deities is okay.

Giving physical offerings to your deities is okay.

Not being able to do certain offerings for deities is okay.

Having an altar for your deities is okay, no matter the size.

Not having an altar for your deities is okay.

Laughing with your deities is okay.

Crying with your deities is okay.

Having genuine conversations with your deities is okay.

Being unable to hear/see deities is okay.

Being able to hear/see deities is okay.

Not being able to communicate through divination is okay.

Using divination as a key element in communication is okay.

Not calling on deities during spellwork is okay.

Asking deities to help during spellwork is okay.

Asking deities for help in general is okay.

This is your relationship with your deities in your practice. Don't let anyone tell you what you can and can't do. 🫶

It's 2am, please forgive me if there are any mistakes!

i find it fascinating how my perception of the gods have changed once i met them. both in looks and personality.

Freyja, related to beauty, love and lust, i believed would look young and very feminine. Yet, when presented with her, she was a gorgeous, mature woman with lines at her eyes and a towering figure. The realization that a goddess I acknowledge as being so gorgeous had wrinkles and strong facial features made me reconsider my own perceived “flaws” and standards of beauty. She was beautiful in her strength and wisdom and yet also in her divinity and confidence. I had forgotten a woman of extreme beauty was also a goddess of war. And in both being true, I found her to be the most powerful woman I know.

Seeing Hades, I believed he would be fearsome and cold. Yet, when I looked into his eyes, there was warmth. He had an appearance of a man in his 40s with long hair, the color of the night, and he had no resentment or even disdain. Only softness. I didn’t fear him nor did he try to have me do so. He was safe as he led me through the courtyard where we met. Where I thought he would be an imposing and cold-hearted figure, I found someone with such patience like a father-figure would have.

Apollo, whom I thought would be bubbly and funny from how I’ve seen others described him was indescribably elegant. He carried himself well. He was kind and patient. Where I thought I would find youthful naivety, I found charm and elegance. And he only asked to help me in my healing. Even when I thought I did not need him, he waited patiently until I could hear him properly. And no matter how long it took, he was still welcoming with a smile.

I truly believe everyone should have the opportunity of meeting their deities and finding how they appear to them. What they show themselves as is what you may need. I find it fascinating to see how others see them :) They love us very much.
