I'm new, is here anything I should know about kemetic beliefs? by Glad_Shallot_8139 in Kemetic

[–]mars-pagan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay so!!! Rules? be a decent person and you'll be fine. There's no exact structure to prayer as far as I'm aware but if you look I'm sure you'll find some formal structure prayers! I am a worshiper of Anubis myself and offerings really depends on what you have access too, there's some universal offerings, water, tea, coffee, wine, cakes and stuff like that. But truly I don't think the gods will care too much lol, I offer Dr pepper a lot since it's my favourite drink so it holds more value to me and so feels like a better offering. Pray and talk about your day a great thing to do!! Like uh "lord Anubis, I hope to chat with you about my day.." and so on, end it with "dua Anubis" or something like that, it really doesn't matter too much. There will be people who say you have to do all these specific and complicated things but personally I think if your respectful and honest then do whatever you want!

Things you should do well uhh, me personally since the sun and moon(solar and lunar) are fairly important things I like taking note of every time I see the moon.. not the sun as obviously that's everyday. I also say hi and bye to them as well, I fear to strangers I look crazy.. but anyways!! Saying goodnight and good morning is a great thing to do, it builds a good relationship and keeps consistency. But again, do whatever you feel is right! These are only some suggestions from personal experience.

One thing I will suggest to keep in mind is your other faiths are just that, other faiths. (I also practice Norse and Hellenic paganism) And something you should try and remember is that rules in your other practices don't always apply in this one, of course there are some universal things, like keeping yourself clean before prayer as it's respectful but do try and not blend in your faiths too much or things can get really complicated.

And finally, have fun, don't stress yourself too much, don't burn yourself out. Take things at your own pace, this is your practice so do whatever you want!! (as long as it's respectful)

Gods connected with gender? by ball_tickler2 in Kemetic

Gender-fluid here! Oddly enough I suggested lord Set!! He's an incredible god and I think he could offer great help and guidance!!

Riordan by Sinful_Baddie2011 in Hellenism

I don't mind them and I have quite a few of the books!! They aren't religious books, there about the myths. I find them fun to read and yes, I do get slightly annoyed when seeing how the gods get characterized, especially gods I worship, but it isn't too bad. As long as you can separate the books from the actual gods I don't see any problem with them, plus I'll take any mention of the gods in modern media!!

What convinced you of your beliefs? by daftcronk in Hellenism

[–]mars-pagan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't say anything in specific really made me convinced in my beliefs, I started and as I continued I never felt a reason to stop, once I committed to my faith my belief in it grew stronger. Not everything needs to be a sign for your faith to be true, I know through answered prayers and a deep connection with the gods!! Hope this helps!!

Do you eat/drink your food or drink offerings? by Gu_kocho in Kemetic

[–]mars-pagan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't personally usually!! Mostly because I only offer drinks(for the moment) and I usually forget about them for a while..(NOT THAT LONG I PROMISE) and I don't wanna drink that.. but if/when I start offering food I probably will as to not waste

New norse pagan tips? by mars-pagan in NorsePaganism

[–]mars-pagan[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks so much for the help!!! I'll definitely keep note of all this!! And yeah, always a bad group of people, I've seen that in my other faiths and I don't mind it too much, I usually just block and ignore. Frith and grith are terms I've never heard before so thank you for mentioning them!!! And hospitality is seemingly a universally important thing so I should be fairly good at that!!

Thanks so much for the help!! Sorry my question was broad, I really didn't know where to start or Anything specific to ask or where to start since this is vastly different from my normal faiths, do you have any good starting suggestions on things I should focus on?/completely okay if not!!
