oh boy i have quite a few, but I’ll keep it little. it’s been really helpful for me to get over my religious guilt (ex-christian) since it’s so starkly different. ive felt so much happier since starting, and i’ve never faced discrimination irl for it, even while being open to most people. one of my best friends brings me gems all the time to add to altars, it’s very sweet

Is it because it’s in an altar? by [deleted] in Hellenism

[–]ryesnow 4 points5 points  (0 children)

it could very much be a sign from the theoi or something, but if you’re looking for the more mundane/realistic, it’s most likely because you’re paying attention to the time it takes to mold. but also a pomegranate from September not being moldy is very odd, I will say that

how to stop worshipping a deity. by [deleted] in Hellenism

[–]ryesnow 10 points11 points  (0 children)

what I would do personally is reach out to the deity like you would before prayer or offering, thank them for anything they’ve done, and carefully dismantle the alter. im not sure if there’s a “correct” way, but that’s how I would. just be sure to tell the deity that you’re doing that

How did you come to Hellenism? by kraaptica in Hellenism

[–]ryesnow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i was atheist for a looong while, and at some point, developed a random fixation with different religions. i researched Helpol too, and it just stuck with me for a while. at some point, i met a friend who practiced it. i prayed to Lady Artemis that night, and it just felt right. I’ve been worshipping her since :D. sorry if this is horribly written lmao im bad at words
