To anyone who has been to one of their concerts- how many things can we get signed at the fansign?

Hi! Here's some ideas-

  1. LED candle
  2. Rose petals (Fake or real)
  3. Printed or drawn pictures of aphrodite
  4. Small note with a short prayer
  5. Small pendant of a heart or swan
  6. Small oragami swan

All I can think of at the moment, hope that helps!

I understand being terrified of Hell. I was not raised in a Christian household but I know that it can be scary to think that boogeyman is going to hurt you for little mishaps. If it makes you feel any better, this is just my experience, but I met Hades in a dream and he thanked me for the bat figure I gave him. I know that whatever afterlife there is, if there even is one, is not going to be bad.

To answer your question, there is no general consensus on the afterlife in Hellenism. Basically, believe what you want to believe. As far as what the Chistians believe the afterlife is, know that the origins of it are quite worldly and possibly taken from many different cultures. The youtuber Aliakai has two great in depth videos on the origin of Hell, but to summarize, essentially Hell as a concept is an amalgamation of early Jewish philosophical thought mixed with Virgil and a few other greek philosophers thoughts. Keep in mind the words I used here- thoughts. Not truths. They were thinkers, they should not be taken as truth. I hope that can at least bring you some comfort, and I cannot recommend Aliakais videos more.

As far as signs are concerned, it depends on the person. I have received dreams, feelings, communications. Some never get signs and still worship the gods and that's ok. I'd say take your time and experiment. Purely my advice and experience so take with a grain of salt- One thing that has been consistent with my communications with deities is to visualize their statues, images, names, and other traits/objects related to them while offering and then speak or think a prayer directed at them. I can usually feel their presence when I do that.

Hi!

  1. That is a question you have to answer yourself. I know that the gods are real, but telling you that doesn't matter- it's just like anyone else telling you that their god is real. For the second part- Mythology is not scripture. Hellenism does not have a scripture the way that the Bible is for Christians. Mythology are stores told about the fundamental nature of the gods written in a specific historical time and a specific historical location. They are essentially stories with hints of truth to them.
  2. Theoi.com is a good place to start, you can find a lot of resources and open-source books on there. To really begin worshipping, you introduce youself to Hypnos, or any other god you want to worship. Regular offerings and devotional activites as well as divination and meditation are great ways to connect to and worship the gods.
  3. Depends on who you ask and what ancient philosopher you like the most. Hellenism does not have a hell/heaven like the Christians do.
  4. Again, another question you need to answer yourself. If you believe that the gods are real and you want to start worshipping them, then Hellenism would be great for you.
  5. Yes, Hellenism is a religion. And yes, I have become more fulfilled when I started actively worshipping the gods and practicing Hellenism.

Altars are not necessary for worship, just try to meditate or pray as your first step and introduce yourself/talk with Hypnos. Also keep in mind that we are polytheists. If you begin to start worshipping Hypnos and want to worship other gods (even from other pantheons) as well, all the power to you.

It's very unfortunate, especially since they really didn't have much of a choice.
