Prayer to Hermes

Hermes,

Pompaios,

Guide for all,

As I hold out a hand for you,

I hope you will take it,

And together in good grace,

Walk along the strange, winding road ahead. Going through life,

Is not as frightening when done with a friend,

And I feel confident in saying,

You are my friend,

Keep my heart calm,

Grant me equanimity in the face of tumultuous storms,

Be my guide, friend and fellow traveler.

A Poem in Honour of Hermes

In misty meadows,

A shepherd walks,

Surrounded by sheep,

In despaired need,

Past mellow mountains,

And melancholic fields,

A newcomer joins,

Downy and grey,

In his arms,

A little lamb,

In his arms,

A lonely lamb,

In his arms,

A lovely lamb,

Much thanks to,

Merciful, patient pompaios.

THERE ARE NO CERTAIN LEVEL DEITIES. COMPLETELY AGREED!

However, there are deities who may not work for you. Just because someone works well with one deity, doesn’t mean you’ll have an easy time with them as well. every one works in different areas at different speeds.

your craft is your own. let none other tell you how to walk your path.

I’ve seen numerous of people saying that there are beginner deities and hard deities. Here’s the thing: do not allow people to stop you from working with deities. You are allowed to work with any deities you wish, and there is no such thing as certain level deities.

Toothache

Mirror mirror why do you show

The train that can’t be coming that slow

I feel the rumbling under my feet, in my bones and in my teeth

Mirror mirror why do you lie

Showing me a girl when I can’t fly

I feel the ache, the tears and all I’ve ate

Mirror mirror why have you forsaken me

Why don’t you show me what I could see

I see your cracks and blood and flack

Mirror mirror what have you done

What can I do to make us one

I see them here, dead and free

Why do I see them in your face, but only death stares in my place

Hi! Op Loki here in the explain-inator! Welcome those who are curious enough to step foot into the ‘keep reading’ box! I suffer from insomnia and occasional hallucinations during said insomnia episodes, which often can be somewhat useful in helping me pinpoint which part of my mental state caused this little bout of insomnia. Recently (for when I wrote this) I’ve been suffering from bodily autonomy issues due to my education’s strict policies and many people demanding my time and effort for their own conveniences. I usually have a hard time saying no to these people because they’re usually closer to me, and it got to the point where it was like ‘hold on a minute, this is *deadname*, not Legion/Loki’. When I thought about myself. And, well, the hallucination wanted to highlight the unstoppable passage of time, my autonomy issues, and the inherent dysphoria that comes with being LGBT in general. And, to do that, it chose time, mirrors, and vampires. But who am I to question- would this be Apollo? Thanks, Apollo, ik I’m still new to worship, but this helped. A lot. And Ares, for giving me the strength to fight.

Yes this is so so so cool!!!!

i have a silly request. could you possibly make a sticker sheet with the greek gods, mostly ares? hes my favorite. so maybe red and bronzey colors?

not silly, im happy to make it!!

i love the greek gods, this mama worships hestia!

i have an altar to her and all<3

as a hellenic worshipper of apollo and a regressor this is so so so cute!!!

sleepy apollon kiddo

i think hypnos is one of the best gods for sleepy regressors, its always nice to be regresed ready for bed and just saying goodnight and falling asleep quickly sniffing the lavender by his altar, having the warm blanket embrace me while i have stuffies in my arms and drift to good dreams warm and safe <3

also i should add i will be starting to make DNI agere banners so if you have your gods/goddesses or patrons (no matter if ite hero worship or diety worship) i will make it for you ^^
