Isn’t it beautiful how things lose color if they are under the sun too long
but not us
I am a ray of his sun, golden and warm

Prayer for when no one in the house will shut up and let you sleep
Gentlest of the gods, lord Hypnos, I call upon you.
With your divine power, please… make everyone underneath this roof shut the fuck up.
Bless me with a quiet, restful slumber, and ease my frustration with the sweetest of dreams.
As my anger toward my kin boils, I grow ever more sleepless. I beg of thee to ease my woes and grant me peace.
My beloved soft eyed Hypnos, I beg of thee!
Please just let me sleep. I’m so fucking tired

Hi, I’m new to Hellenic polytheism and I was wondering where to start when looking into worshiping Apollo and what sources are available for that.
I know about the Theoi.com but I was wondering if there was any books or tiktokers that make content where I can learn more about him.

I didn’t have a suitable offering bowl or plate for Hades (all my bowls had been dedicated to other deities already), so I made a wee one myself !!
Tumblr media
It’s far from perfect, but making it felt really comforting. It’s a bit of a simplified pomegranate, because I didn’t want the design to distract from the offerings themselves that’ll be placed on it (including real pomegranate seeds, haha). 🤍

Hey petals~🩷
I created this devotee account because I want to connect with other devotees through this app and I can’t wait to hear about your experiences with deity work!!!🌊🦪
I was just wondering today how grateful I am to Lady Aphrodite because of her presence in my life. She literally has my back and is protecting me from negative shit as hard as she can and I'm just so happy to be her devotee. I also wanted to tell you guys random things that are connected to her and me:
🩷 I was obsessed with her since I was a child, I always collected seashells and kept them on my shelves.
🩷 I smile every time if I think about how many times doves were literally walking on my windowsill when I just woke up. There was a time when I opened my eyes and the dove was staring at me and I was like: What the actual fuck is happening? Hah. Apparently, she tried to reach out to me.
�� I always loved Aphrodite, that was the name that stuck out to me the most when I first heard about Greek Mythology. When I was in Greece a few years ago, I had to tell my family that I bought Aphrodite’s statue for my grandma (even though it was for me). I don’t even know why I told them that, I was just so insecure!
🩷 I remember that I lit a candle and I was talking to her (statue) so many times when I felt lonely. I suddenly felt like I became more calm and I was just so grateful for that feeling.
🩷 Few years ago when my aunt was in Greece, she said she bought me a present. I was so surprised when she came home with an Aphrodite T-shirt that my jaw literally dropped. My uncle said that he wanted me to get a Hades shirt but my aunt had a feeling that said no, they have to get me the Aphrodite one and I was so happy! I consider this a sign, because my aunt doesn’t really like it when I wear something „girl like”
🩷 I was really insecure in my body (I’m not that skinny), but since I started working with her, my confidence went up. I still have a long way to go but I’m just happy that I can be a baddie and I feel comfortable in my skin.
🩷 I also feel her presence when I do my skin-care routine. Or when I take a bath and l light a candle.
🩷 When I look into the mirror, I always blow a kiss for myself and I really think Aphrodite is proud of me when I do this. I deserve the best and she wants the best for me!

What an honor it is to dream
The word of Hypnos sent to you, a vision formed by a God and sent to a mortal
Every detail holding symbolism, the language of the divine
For dreams are His word
and you are the interpreter as the Christian god to his apostles, but rather
To Sleep and to Dream Himself
His own language and you are the judge
The translator of the message of the Gods sent to you
Dreams sacred and holy like a text of a faith
and yours personally sent to you
your own vision to display to others
a vision sent to you as you are Hypnos's disciple
From His gentle hand He formed it
From His gentle lips He whispers to you His holy message
In your dreams as He is
Every dream a message
Every dream a vision
interpretated
interpreter

I'd give you my hands for them to become yours. I'd open my stomach for you to untie its knots. I'd vomit all thoughts I'd shake all dust from the lines in my skin to see you accept it all— to see you give it a new form. Dionysus of the ivy, of release, the saviour whose hands glow from liberation get me out of these walls destroy the bars of this untouchable cage where I weep after trial and error— trial and error, human nature itself; can't seem to think straight, pouring libations with a clear head, then getting drown in signs and symptoms of a body that doesn't coordinate, of a life that is not yet what it may.

orphic hymn to Nyx
hymns can be invoked while giving offerings to gods, or just enjoyed on their own as a nice piece of poetry. this specific hymn is said to be written by Orpheus, the mythic son of Apollo
"Night, parent goddess, source of sweet repose, from whom at first both Gods and men arose,
Hear, blessed Venus, decked with starry light, in sleep's deep silence dwelling Ebon night!
Dreams and soft case attend thy dusky train, pleased with the lengthened gloom and feaftful strain.
Dissolving anxious care, the friend of Mirth, with darkling coursers riding round the earth.
Goddess of phantoms and of shadowy play, whose drowsy power divides the natural day:
By Fate's decree you constant send the light to deepest hell, remote from mortal sight
For dire Necessity which naught withstands, invests the world with adamantine bands.
Be present, Goddess, to thy suppliant's prayer, desired by all, whom all alike revere,
Blessed, benevolent, with friendly aid dispel the fears of Twilight's dreadful shade."

Amythest choker based on Hypnos!
I’ve thought about making devotional jewellery to sell but I don’t know a damn thing about selling online. But I have so many bits and bobs in my beads box I need to do something with them.
