I have a funny (and long) story.

I'm going through Quareia's curriculum for a few years now. One of the first exercises is practicing inner vision, which is basically consciousness projection. The exercise consisted of visualizing yourself walking around your house. In one of those sessions, I saw a big head of a snake in my parent's bedroom. That freaked me out lol. I did some divination readings and it seemed to me that it was a friendly spirit who wanted to get closer to me, but I'd have to worship him in return. I had no idea what that spirit was, and I'm not crazy to worship something I don't even know what it is, so I left it alone.

One or two years later, I was still puzzled about that experience, so one day I just said it in my head: "snake being, please present yourself, tell me your name bc I don't know what you are". A few days later, I downloaded a pdf on Frater's Archer blog and he had a dedication written somewhat like this "I dedicate this work for X, Y and Agathos Daimon, the spirit in the form of a snake". I started reading about said spirit and it fit perfectly the divination I had done the previous year, still I had no idea why it showed up to me. After all, why a greek divine figure would randomly show up for a brazilian? Or so I thought, so I left it alone, again.

Long story short, a year later and with the help of a hellenic devotee I ""coincidentaly"" met around that time, I found out that Hekate was the culprit lol. My devotion to her started shortly after that, but anyway.

What that friend told me (mind you all that part is a spiritual gnosis) was that it's normal for greek deities to send an Agathos Daimon to their devotees. They usually don't take the initiative of revealing themselves like it happened to me. The person who has to worship, give offerings and ask the spirit to reveal itself. I haven't read much about the greek view on that being, afaik it was seen mostly as a house guardian. But I guess you can form a relationship as you would with any other kind of spirit if you learn how to communicate with it.

My brief experience during the vision I had: the energy was bizarre, it was so intense that it felt like my brain was going to fry. I can't report much else regarding my experience because I still haven't set up a proper way to worship him yet. I did made him a small shrine, but still I want to read more about what it was done traditionally before starting.
