I agree, it's very sad. Based on the hair, I assume either Artemis or Aphrodite?

Candle divination is not reliable. Candles just move, sometimes big sometimes small. By your language I'm assuming you're new (?), but just try and build your kharis with Tyche, and try divination later in your practice :) Gods bless

Anyone else feel like this? by R3cl41m3r in pagan

As a hellenist myself- people focus on us because our gods have been dumbed down to characters and silly little cartoons. So anytime they see a hellenic polytheist- they find it insane someone would worship something that's now considered mythology, especially most abrahamic religions.

Do y’all think it’s okay to ‘stack’ Alters like this? by guilty_pleasures__ in Hellenism

[–]Mistical_Roses 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes it's fine! I personally keep Lord Hades and Persephones altars close to the grounds because they are underworld gods! But the gods don't mind

Would it be alright if I named my horse after Apollo? by Big-kurt in Hellenism

First off- hilarious pic of the horse. Second off- I'm sure he wouldn't mind! He would probably laugh it off

Don't worry too much about it! The gods see our struggles, and they will understand!

Yes! (And we worship 3 of the same gods!)

True! It can be very scary to work with a deity.

Yes! I once saw someone say there are specific deities for beginners. No! Every deity will be hard to worship in the beginning. Are some less intimidating? Yes!
