Have you had dreams about your deity(ies)?
For me, I have had a bunch! Just wondering what your experiences are.
Athena: My first deity dream! Basically I dreamt that I was outside a temple (not Greek, but I knew it was a temple somehow) and there was a lot of fog.
I was in the garden and holding a bracelet, which was the latest offering I had given her at the time, but her name was misspelled!
Suddenly I hear a voice saying, "She's glad her (?) is back (?)"
And I woke up. What does it mean? No idea.
Artemis: probably the most direct ones.
I dreamt that I was in a shop, and they had a bow and arrow section for some reason.
I started shooting with one of them and realized how great and nice it felt.
Then I woke up; I made her a cardboard bow and arrow because of it.
The second one, I was commissioning a lady to make me a doll of Artemis, but instead of saying her name, I kept saying "my goddess."
I was getting frustrated because I couldn't find a photo of Artemis to show her on my phone.
It was like she never existed—also, the lady was making the doll an e-girl for some reason.
I took it as Artemis wanting a doll that looked like her, since I had given Athena an offering like that.

Hermes: This one is short, but basically I was an old lady that had dedicated her life to Hermes, and I went out to my garden, and I had a bunch of statues of him.
And I woke up.
That's all; if they are just random stuff I dreamt of or actual signs, I have no idea.
Still interesting, though.
Literally me and Athena
I remember when I was just getting to know Helpol, I was nervous, like what if it's really strict? What if I have to pray 10 times a day and veil every day?
Then in reality the religion is so chill and calm,lol.
Every time I see an absolutely gorgeous altar, it's always for Aphrodite.
Me when I see something related to my deities in public
Do y'all think your deities have been with you since you were born?
I was watching some old childhood of myself, and I randomly wondered, "What if Lady Athena has been with me since childhood?"
And immediately after that, a random owl my mom decided to film appeared on screen. I thought it was funny, but what do you all think?
Have the gods been with us since childhood and just waited for us?
If somebody is crazy enough to do it:here are some Greek statues Papercraft!
I'm actually going to try to make this! Also I don't even have a printer so I will have to manually trace and shade it, wish me luck y'all
Also this one is free!
This one is paid!
Also paid
Scroll to the comments and you'll find a link,also free!
And there's a YouTube tutorial

Unfortunately that's all I could find! I also found some guy on Reddit Athena's bust statue but he only shared the link on DMS and seemingly isn't active anymore.
If you have any more,please share!
I told lady selene how I wish I could see her more often
And now I see the moon every night!
It's truly is lovely, thank you lady selene 🕯️🌖!
Just wanted to share this song that reminds me of lady selene!
Especially because the lyrics, I live in an apartment, and so I rarely see the moon.
"Goddess Moon, when are you coming?"
"Goddess Moon, where do you hide?"
I never know at what hour to see her. or where she's hiding! It reminds me a lot of my relationship with her, so I love it, lol.
Also, The Dancer and the Moon is another good song! (While I was writing that, I was listening to her playlist, and the song immediately came up,lmao)
Reminder that Athena is also a goddess of weaving, and you can easily make a cardboard loom!
It's a pretty cool thing to offer her and an easy hobby to get into.
You can search on TikTok/YouTube/Pinterest for ideas on what to make.
(and ofc owls)
Did you have traits of your deities as a kid?
Recently I realized I had traits of the deities I ended up worshipping and thought it was interesting.
Athena: I have always been a curious child seeking wisdom. Instead of telling me bedtime stories, my dad would ask me, "What do you want to know about?" and he would put on a YouTube video about the topic.
I also used to follow those shitty "did you know…?" Ig accounts; I just wanted to know more no matter the topic.
For her goddess of crafts aspect, that's the one I most strongly connect with.
I LOVE crafting. Ever since I was a kid, I literally craft something new every day, and if not, I'm thinking/looking for what to craft next.
Artemis: I was obsessed with the movie "Brave" as a kid; I wanted to be a hunter and live in the forest so badly.
I had a bunch of toy bows and arrows that I would play with all day, so basically I wanted to be like Artemis.
I know I would have gone crazy if I knew about her at that age, lol. (And I did go "Wait, that's literally me" when I learned about her.)
Selene: My name is literally Moon (Luna). I have always been obsessed with the moon since I was young.
One time I was looking at her, and my parents called out to me, but I was in some kind of trance just looking at her.
My dad had to touch me so I would stop staring at her.

Although I don't worship him (but I'm thinking about it), it just reminded him so badly of him I had to include it.
Hermes: My friend Group was "enemies" with another girl, I would serve as the messenger between us.
Sometimes I would modify the message to make them mad at each other just for fun.
I randomly remembered and was like, "Wait, that's so Hermes."
So, did you have traits of your deities as a child?
