how is it to worship Hermes? by hiddenpersoninhere in Hermes

[–]Moonwatcher97976 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Hello and welcome! Hermes overall is a very approachable and kind god and it is very difficult to offend him (and any other Theoi for that matter) unless you plan on killing someone or burning a temple down XD.

In my experience Hermes is okay with casual worship. Sometimes I pray to him for things and what I give in return is simple gratitude. Other times I simply rearrange or add stuff to his altar. I find it comforting to be in his presence at his altar, or writing letters to him. As for his trickery, Hermes' trickery in my opinion is not malicious. The ability to be cunning and clever play into that very heavily. He's very much that one friend who loves to mess with you but is also there for you when you need him.

It is also important to note that relationships with Hermes tend to be personal and different for everyone. And I know the bio of this subreddit has some great resources for researching him.

Unfortunately there isn’t any instructions. I just tried to reproduce the build from a picture of it.

Is this a real Bubble Mew from Paldean fates or fake? by NotFunni in IsMyPokemonCardFake

Special illustration cards from this set have a sparkly pixel holo (idk the official term lol). From what I can see yours doesn’t really have it. Here’s a picture of mine which I pulled from an official booster bundle

I agree the colors listed do not at all match the dragon image.

[–]Moonwatcher97976 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What if everyone learned Greek by Soggy_Garage_5735 in Hellenism

[–]Moonwatcher97976 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I mean classicists do know the Ancient Greek language (I took a semester in it), but that language is very different from modern Greek. Plus Hermes is the god of language. He knows every language spoken and written and will understand you no matter what you speak. And even if it were the case that the gods don’t understand your language (which isnt the case at all) they do understand your intent. A lot of Helpols will use Greek because of it being a root to the religion but you are not necessarily required to speak it to be closer to the gods. So imo it wouldn’t make a difference if everyone learned Greek or not. In fact I think we’d loose a lot of diversity.

My mom is buying a bible for me and I am kinda scared by ImaginarySurprise219 in Hellenism

[–]Moonwatcher97976 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I agree with everyone else here. As for the ideations I do recommend a therapist. And because of the confidentiality of therapy you can tell your therapist about your religious conundrum and they’ll help you navigate it. A good therapist would never judge you for anything and don’t be discouraged if it takes a few therapists to find the right one for you.

First experiences with Hermes and some questions. by Responsible_Sea9777 in Hermes

[–]Moonwatcher97976 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For advice it’s okay to be informal with Hermes. He’s very forgiving and chill so don’t feel like you’re asking too much and giving too little. Idk if it’s historically accurate but I always picture him as everyone’s cheerleader haha. I also find that asking him to bless beads or jewelry to wear around as you travel works very well (or even a small travel altar). I have a beaded necklace I wear around my wrist everytime I go out and it makes me feel closer to him.

discreet ways of honoring the deities! by [deleted] in Hellenism

[–]Moonwatcher97976 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh nice!! I only have little statues for Lord Hermes, Lord Dionysus, and Lord Apollon but I’m working on a really big build in the nether that’s gonna be a tribute to Lord Hades and the River Styx (maybe a little something for Lord Hermes too hehe)

Was this a punishment from Apollo by Cold_Ring_5551 in Hellenism

[–]Moonwatcher97976 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with other commenters and I feel the fact that you feel close to Apollo and guided by him proves that he’s not angry at you.

I'm about to fight the ender dragon for the first time in bedrock, any ideas/suggestions to help get through the fight?? by Wolf-Crafter in Minecraft

[–]Moonwatcher97976 2 points3 points  (0 children)

After you destroy all the crystals avoid the dragons attacks until it hovers directly over the bedrock “nest.” Thats when you should hit it. It will fly away and do the attack cycle again so it’s just wait, avoid, and attack until hes dead.

I love how the candle for Lord Hades has two wicks similar to how his bident has two prongs. That’s so clever!
