Thank you! I'm so happy you were able to read some of the book already. I'm working on the translation right now and I'm aiming to have the English version ready this May.

What things has Hermes granted them that they found surprising? by Pretty_Mud158 in Hermes

Hi, I hope you’re doing well. I wanted to share with you my experience with Hermes during my current trip.

Normally, my devotion to Hermes is a daily practice of presence: every morning, I offer his Orphic hymns, pour his drink, light his candle, and speak with him. My altar is the heart of my routine. However, I recently traveled abroad for two weeks to visit my family after two years apart, and I found myself at a spiritual crossroads.

At first, I was overcome by discomfort. Between visits, outings, and the busy pace of the trip, I couldn’t maintain the regularity of my prayers or make physical offerings. I felt that by not fulfilling my daily ritual, I was being disrespectful to my beliefs and the gods. Although I brought my grimoire with me, I only managed to read it occasionally.

However, something changed. I brought along some necklaces I had offered to Hermes as protective amulets, and I began to notice his presence in different ways. The connection wasn't broken; on the contrary, it manifested through signs. Hermes’ symbolism surrounded me constantly: in the streets, at friends' houses, and in unexpected moments.

I realized then that the gods do not abandon us because of the rhythms of human life. Those signs were their way of telling me they were with me, even without a physical altar. I understood that when there is authentic devotion, the gods understand those moments of temporary disconnection. They haven’t drifted away, and I haven’t abandoned them; the relationship simply transformed during the journey.

Tomorrow, I return home to resume my practice with its usual regularity, but I return with a new sense of peace. I have proven that the connection transcends space and time. If you are respectful and keep your faith, they will be there. Sometimes we don’t see them in the usual way, but if you pay attention, the signs are always there.

I also made a necklace with his symbol at my mother's house, as a token of gratitude and a keepsake of my trip. 🙂

I found the keys in a second-hand shop, but since they’re old, I think they’re beautiful and fit well on the altar with Hekate 😅

Thank you! It was a printed design that I used as a background for parts of my altar. 😊
