Me And My Deities

Me when I see something related to my deities in public

Reminds me of the time when I studied for a full week in honor of Athena and was jokingly like, "I should get a reward!"

The next day I got a doll I wanted for literal years and had dreams about.

A few days ago I was joking about deserving a “Mother’s day present” because I took care of toddlers age 2-4 years old during my internship at Daycare, that same day I ordered a new candle for my beloved.

Me (Today): *Came home from picking up his candle from the pick up point in my street* Okay let’s see.

As I open the box and unwrap the candle, my face turns deadpan as I look at the candle in my hand.

Me: Trying to bite back a smile and a giggle.

It’s wrapped in gift wrapping and has a ribbon and sticker on it that says “Best mum ever!”.

Apollo: Beaming, giving off that “You asked and I delivered” energy.

I turn away from Apollo’s altar slowly, trying to be as serious as possible and hiding my shy smile.

Me: Okay, I see. I get it now, You got jokes.

So eventually I cut out the part with the ribbon and sticker and placed it on his altar (｡>﹏<) ♡

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.

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)

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 🕯️🌖!

Do any of you do handmade offerings?

I really only do handmade offerings for a lot of reasons, but mostly because I love crafting.

I weirdly see DIY offerings, so I was wondering if anybody else does it.

If so, what is your favorite handmade offering?

I wonder how the gods feel about offerings nowadays .

Like they used to get magnificent temples and statues done for them, and now:

They get offered paw patrol figures and Cheetos

Every time I see an absolutely gorgeous altar, it's always for Aphrodite.

So I made a post about my favorite song about Lady Selene and how the lyrics resonate with me because I don't know when I'll see her or where she's hiding.

I fell asleep quite early and got sad because I thought I wouldn't be able to see her.

I was doomscrolling through my phone when I noticed a bright white light out of my window.

I jokingly thought, "What if it's the moon?" I went outside to get a better look (I was thinking maybe it was a light from the apartment that's right in front of mine).

And it was, in fact, Lady Selene!

I have literally never seen her at this hour, and the fact I was awake just at the right time!

For now I'll just enjoy the time I get to see her.

Thank you, Lady Selene, for letting me see your beauty!

I can't have statues so what I do is this:

Instead of the hb character is a photo of a statue!

I think it's a cool alternative
