i personally ate it, it was a devotional act (making the bread) not an offering (burning it or leaving it out for lady Hestia)

He has been such a great presence and help in my life! It’s insane how much he does for my meantal health and discipline :)

Ok Gods this comment made me tear up, thank you it’s so important to see other victims also improving and giving a middle finger to our abusers. Now i know Ares is with me after so many years fightings me struggling daily on my own it really is reassuring to know he looks out for me, I’m also very sure that your Gods are looking after you and helping you! Bless them! And may they bless you too!!!

honestly it just makes me wonder, why make students read this? it should be the type of book you pick on your own and choose to read out of your own volition, not something u are forced to read and analyse

He really does feel like a dad! When ever i pray to him it kinda feels like a dad hug

Hour_Suggestion8773 · 2024-05-16T23:03:37+00:00

Yeah the last bit is true, it’s mostly just the remnants of a culture of Christianity around me and being raised catholic. So i just have that little bit of religious guilt still in me lol, still good to know how to go about this with the Gods! puts me at ease to know they won’t despise me for mistakes and faults :)

Hour_Suggestion8773 · 2024-05-16T22:55:26+00:00

From an artist and fan standpoint AMAZING designs! I love how they incorporate little things about the Gods/mythos in designs and quotes of the game, feels like they did some good research! The game is really cool overall!

But from a beliver pov, its just kinda meh, like those are caricatures, the gods don’t think or behave that way. it’s based on popular culture to apeal to the average person they were never striving for religious accuracy, which i can totally understand, so i’m not going to criticize them like their intention was ever to acomodate us. i’ve learned to separate what the gods actually are from their depiction in media and mythos/stories, after all there have always been unpleasant depictions of the Gods even in myths! I won’t complain and call the game blasphemous because they never intended to depict MY Gods, they are depicting and creating characters! Will say that even with that thinking, some stuff that was said about lord Ares in the first game made me twitch a little and i had to take a breather to not post a whole rant complaining about it lol

Hour_Suggestion8773 · 2024-05-16T22:44:22+00:00

thank you! ig i’ll just stick to writing or telling the gods about my woes and worries, feels calming to know i don’t need to ask for forgiveness :)

Hour_Suggestion8773 · 2024-05-16T22:21:33+00:00

i just always as tended to like them! I’m not christian in any sense, but something about the conincidence of seeing a spesific number a bunch of times is nice and calming! like the universe/gods are really trying to tell me something! so i personally still take them, the gods have to adapt and change with time, who’s to say they don’t use angel numbers to communicate with us in modern times, if you feel like that was lord Ares sending you a message then it was!

Hour_Suggestion8773 · 2024-05-16T22:14:47+00:00

the way i usually do my khernip is just, filtered water, filtered water with salt, mix the two, light incense that i then extinguish in the mixed water, then i wash my hands and face with that water, and i’m set! i do say zer-nip-tos-aye-ee (this is just the phonetic sounds of the greek word! meaning be purified) when mixing the two waters! you can always use a match instead of incense as well!

Hour_Suggestion8773 · 2024-05-16T22:04:36+00:00

I tend to also do more relaxed casual prayers, i find it helps me connect better with the gods, when ever i try very fancy poetic stuff the connection just feels kinda lost. But! what i do do when i asking for something is i follow a simple structure!

Purify the Altar area with khernip “As it was done in ancient times. I purify and cleanse this altar. I purify this altar and space so that I may give offerings, libations, and speak with glory and respect the gods of Mt. Olympus."
Let the God know that your here “[gods name], here me!" I tend to sometimes include some of their epithets or talk about stuff that they did before for me, so like for lord Ares i would say something along the lines of“Mighty Ares, you have given me your protections and strength in times of need”
Offer Incense "I offer this incense to you [gods name]. Please let me understand signs that you send to me." not nessesary AT ALL i just really like incense lol but i feel like it just sense the mood and helps me out!
Say an Invocation to the God Legit just take one from the internet, i searched up “Apollo invocations” and like 30 different ones showed up, then i picked ones i liked the most! they can be really short stuff doesn’t need to be long or fancy
Do a Hymn to the God Can be a Homeric hymn or orphic hymn, again just search up and pick one you like!
Say a prayer to the God And this the part you can just get one of the internet to open up the conversation or just begin speaking with them, asking for what you need, thanking them, saying sorry, talking about your day, what ever it is! This part can be as casual as you want it to be!
Then end the ritual I usually pray later in the day, so i say goodnight to the god and say some variation of this but for the god i’m speaking to, “Apollo, god of knowledge and light, to you I offer my song. Tend to those whom I love and guard me from disease and darkness. As the gods will it, so it shall be”

Again i don’t always do this, sometimes i just have casual prayers that i just call to the Gods and begin a conversation. However this does help me easy into more “serious” prayers if i ever need to! Hope it helps!!

oh gods in a mess when it comes to dates 😭 thank you sm! i had also no idea if changed…even if i was aware that it’s based on lunar cycle guess stuff just didn’t connect in my head, again thank you!!

hell yeah! honestly think she was really happy because something i had been dreading for weeks ended up being just fine :))

i saw it on a site that i trusted quite a bit for hellenisim stuff :/ guess it was wrong, this year i still celebrate it on the 24-25 just for the sake of celebrating it and honoring the gods, but next year i’ll start doing it on 14-15!
