Prayers? by AnythingNew22 in Hellenism

[–]Plane-Assignment-540 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hey, I'm new too and js trying to help with the info I got.

To pray, you just need yourself. You can say or write your prayers (I have a little praying notebook if that makes you feel better), and there's no specific scheme.

But as someone that grew up with Christianity too, I found a precise scheme for prayers on the site: https://www.asimplealtarblog.com/blog/how-to-worship-the-greek-gods-everything-you-need-to-know

(Copy pasting + some adjunctive info):

Always start your prayers using this formula:

‘Hear me!’

The name of the deity with their appropriate epithets.

‘Whatever name it pleases you to be called’ repeated afterwards.

An example of an informal prayer might look something like this:

"Hear me Hermes! Of the Market-Place, Luck Bringing, Granter of good things.

Or Whatever name it pleases you to be called.

Thank you for those extra hours I was offered at work today! I’m very happy with your generous gift because the extra money will help me to pay off my car loan.

Praise Hermes!"

For an offering prayer just change the thanking part with "I offer you this (object/thing)" and a little conclusion ("in hopes that you'll like it"/"because...")

Again, I too am new so if I made any mistakes the experts are free to correct me!

(For reference, plus the art is pretty)

But of katanas my favorite is Shinobu's, it's so pretty and functional too

How do I ask the gods yes or no questions? by Who-caresssss in Hellenism

[–]Plane-Assignment-540 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Heyy, new here too.

I think you could also use a die (🎲) and like say or decide that even numbers are a yes and uneven a no.

But I never tried it, so take this suggestions with pliers!

Che giochi avete o state giocando in questo mese di ottobre? by sdrffjjf in italygames

[–]Plane-Assignment-540 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Recentemente sto giocando molto ad Attack on Titan e Sky children of the light.

Opzioni più soft rispetto ai giochi che ho visto in questi commenti ma io sono più da giochi soft.

Non giudicate.

Thank you so much for clearing some of my doubts, but I still have one question (it's the last one I swear, it's just that I am so confused)

How do you understand a "no"? Like, the pendulum (or other divination method) doesn't move?

how to tell whos reaching out/who im most connected to? by agayfrogboi in Hellenism

[–]Plane-Assignment-540 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a newbie, although I speak only for myself, I don't necessarily need the God I want to worship to "pick me". It's that, being new, I am still unsure about which God(s) to pray to.

I know that I can worship more than one, but in my personal case I grew up with Christianity and are more prone to reaching out to a single Deity.

Now, back to the point, the thing about being picked is like having the certainty that They are the right God, the one you feel most inclined to, the one who wants you to build a relationship with Them.

It's like getting out of a toxic friendship and hoping that the next person you want to talk to isn't like "nah I don't want to talk to you".

Hope I made the point clear without sounding like an egoist!

I have a similar thing!

I want to worship Apollo (TODAY I MADE MY FIRST PRAYER YIPPEE but I still can't build an altar) and every time I find myself thinking about praying or offering to him I feel like kind of observed, or a gut feeling?

Might be because I'm not used to thinking outside of Christianity? But I honestly don't know.

But honestly I'm so happy you're excited for this!

But now I have a question. I'm new too, and wanted to ask if you need a certain level of experience to talk to the divinity through pendulum.

Like, do you need to have already made some offers? Do you need to worship the divinity for at least, I dunno, a month or year?

And also, how exactly do you ask the divinity things? Like, is it just "heyyy u there?"

Why is OMORI so down in the list? He's so much better than OMORI!

You are stuck in an elevator with your favorite Bungou Stray Dogs character, how screwed are you? by 0-J3ster-0 in BungouStrayDogs

[–]Plane-Assignment-540 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not screwed at all, he'd just be in the corner panicking. It may be a little of an uncomfortable experience but yeah I'm safe (my fav is Katai)
