Thinking about how there are some more niche versions of the story of Hyacinth and Apollo (calling him hyacinth cause it's easier) where Apollo manages to bring Hyacinth back and he becomes a minor god which you might think is a happy ending but in my mind IT IS NOT. I mean maybe it can be but not from the get go.

Like imagine you're Hyacinth and you're in love with a god which inherently comes with it's struggles as a mortal, but there's also this other god who's in love with you but you don't really fuck with him like that plus you're taken already. You choose to take the risks of being with Apollo cause you love him so much and those risks actually end up catching up to you but not because of the humans being jealous or anything, because you had the audacity to say no to someone. And the next thing you know you wake up and you're with Apollo but you're a minor god in Olympus. You might be able to visit your family but you can't truly reunite with them, all of the things in life you looked forward to doing as a human you won't be able to do. You'll have to watch everyone you loved and cared about slowly die and you're forced to live eternity surrounded by people that you have been raised your whole life to praise, the way you live your life will almost completely change AND you have to spend eternity living amongst your murderer all without your say in the matter.

I feel like eventually Hyacinth would settle and get used to it and be happy being with Apollo again but I cannot imagine it being an easy start by any means

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

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

BRO. I was in the shop thinking to myself "it would be nice if I could get some honey to offer Apollo," and then my eye caught on a local honey display. There's this beautiful jar of creamed honey with cinnamon that looks absolutely delightful. I think "hey, that looks perfect," and I look at the label.

The label reads "Aristaeus creamed honey"

ARISTAEUS AS IN THE HELLENIC GOD OF BEEKEEPING??? ARISTAEUS AS IN THE SON OF APOLLO?????

I’ve been adding to my altars the past couple of days, now that I’m home from holiday traveling. I’ve been feeling a bit disconnected from my practice because of said traveling and just general end of the semester bullshit, and my way of dealing with feeling distant usually involves gifts lol. I added a few things to my Aphrodite, Apollo/Artemis, Athena, and healing altars, in addition to giving food offerings, which has helped me to start feeling more grounded 💕

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
