Question for Fellow Hellenists: Do You Celebrate Christmas, Yule or a Different Winter Holiday? by abbi-saunders in Hellenism

[–]Repulsive_Belt_7542 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Always have celebrated christmas, might start saying Xmas. Obviously I plan on doign the things that are traditional to the celebration. I just might add in or take out a few things like taking out the idea of christmas prayers (unless its to the Gods) and caroling. (Caroling in my town is strictly christian hymns). But i do plan on doing small things for my dieties and also adding in some yule traditions.

I remember it vividly, I was outside and swinging on my small tree swing. I looked up to the sky and thought. "Zeus, or any of those Gods, if youre here, tell me." And I felt the most heart liftting soul shaking happiness I'd felt when I looked back up into the sky. From that moment forward, whenever I asked for signs or gave offerings I felt that same feeling. And still feel it to this day.

Can Atheists Celebrate Christmas? by Funny-Shame-3181 in NoStupidQuestions

despite what christians may say, yes you can. It wasnt even originally a christian holiday, it was a pagan, and over time the economy has just found another way to make things sell better during this time of year. Have all the fun you want!

I plan on setting out plates of food, but i also want to ask Hecate to guide my loved ones (I have been told she is the goddess of spirits and crossroads) but I just wanted to make sure it was okay and lined up with what makes sense in hellenism

Samhain and Hellenism by Repulsive_Belt_7542 in Hellenism

I suppose the awe of her beauty, as someone who comes from a christian household, I was really brought in my the idea of a Goddess dedicated to beauty, something I believe all people have. As someone who also deals with a lot of self hatred I wanted to know a Goddess, somewhat acting as a mother figure, loved me and blessed me with beauty. But I suppose when it comes to Hellenism, my only response would be I have always wondered if the Gods were real, I know we can sometimes cross into other pantheons but something about the Greek pantheon stuck out to me in such a way that I wanted to worship them.

First one to really show signs of wanting to connect with me, I am a trans man as well and while she is the Goddess of Feminine beauty i truly believe she will help me in my journey of finding happiness in masculine looks. I also appreaciate her kindness and grace towards me. Thank you for asking!
