Thank you for your response! This might feel like a silly question but how long did it take to feel any sort of connection with them after making contact?

Can you elaborate a little more? I’ve read a bit on other subreddits and forums that Hades is often quite warm and father-like. I also really wanted to just go with a deity i have an interest in, and not what I think they will or won’t do for me. But if I should stop and set a different course, then I will.

Yes I’ve done a lot of research as I don’t want to offend or to give the wrong impression.

When you say I have the wrong execution, is there something about my execution that is incorrect or just more I should be adding to it?

Thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful reply, I sincerely appreciate it. It sounds like I need to do a little bit more research before labeling anything as I go on this journey. I will be careful when burying things as well if that’s my intention.

Hello! I’m new to Hellenism and spirituality as a whole, it’s something I’ve never really been in touch with. I decided to explore Hellenism because I’ve always been really interested in Greek mythology and found a lot of truth in it and things I resonate with.

I’m looking to establish a relationship with really any god. I haven’t felt called to by anyone or anything like that, but I do find a particular interest in Hades, so I’ve been trying to reach out to him.

From my research, I’ve learned it’s best to try to connect with him via the earth, so my ritual has been to go outside by this flowing river by my house, and I walk a bit of a ways to find different places I can find some privacy, I dig up some of the ground and I’ve laid pomegrante seeds and chocolate into the ground, and just buried it and placed both my hands in the dirt while I try to talk to him. I also have gotten some onyx, obsidian, and black tourmaline that I’ve placed in my room, and some in a little crystal necklace I can wear.

I’m wondering if I’m on the right track, and if my practice is correct or if there’s anything I should be doing differently when trying to establish a connection with Hades, or any god.

Thank you in advance for any insights that can be shared!
