Hey all. So I'm not that active on tumblr anymore aside from the occasional check in, however I am somewhat active on my hellenic polytheism Instagram, so feel free to follow me here if you'd like ❤
I pray to the gods today.
I pray Zeus bring divine justice to murderers who believe themselves above the law
I pray Athena protect those who stand against injustice
I pray Aphrodite watch over those with heavy hearts and minds
I pray Hera watch over worried mothers
I pray Artemis look after vulnerable girls in these times
I pray Apollo look after vulnerable boys in these times
I pray to the gods to watch over those who are trying to make a change in the world today.
I know that thoughts and prayers arent enough, but I wanted to put mine out there.
Justice for George Floyd, and many others.
Please stay safe everyone.

"You are ares"- a poem
You are the power that lies just behind despair
You live not in the fear of the great unknown,
The question of what comes after,
Once we have split body from soul
No-
You live within the fight to stay alive
The need,
The struggle,
The pounding of my beating heart against the flesh
That which screams out
When we have but everything to lose
You are the fire which ignites the words
"I AM AFRAID"
"BUT HERE I AM"
"AND NOTHING WILL TAKE MY PLACE FROM ME"
You are ares
Hey I just wanted to say~
In times like these I know it can be hard to feel connected to the gods or any spirituality, but I wanted to say that even if you're feeling disconnected that's okay. Take some time to breathe. Care for yourself in as many ways as you can. The gods and your spirituality are still right there ❤
Hey guys, I want more hellenic content on my dash! Like or reblog if you post about Greek gods or if you're a Hellenic polytheist & I'll check out your blog :)
Hey, guys! I was thinking about making a short book compiled of prayers and whatnot that I’ve written for the theoi, with writing new ones for it, possibly with some art for/about them in it too. Would anyone be interested in something like that?
Heyo~ ive decided that once i can get a good writing app downloaded onto my laptop that ill start making this. Im excited to compile & write new prayers, poems & small blessings (like the one praying for hestia to bless you and yours that i posted recently) Hopefully others will enjoy it and find it useful once its done, however long itll take :)

I pray Hestia bless you and yours with a warm home full of love
New Aphrodite mini-shrine for the new place :)
Prayer to Hestia
Hestia, Goddess of the Hearth
Goddess of the home
I pray to you.
I ask you to fill my home
With love,
With good memories,
And with safety.
I pray that my home be a sanctuary
For all who enter.
I pray my home be the comfort
At the end of a long day.
I pray for your blessings in this house,
Hestia, Goddess of the hearth and home.
Prayer to Apollo, god of music
Apollo, divine god of songs
Your music carries the reflection of your beauty
Your melodic whims carrying the weight of emotion
From the artists soul to the listeners heart,
I pray to you
Come to me, god Apollo
Please shine your light upon me
Guide me to create melodies and song
That reflect your beauty
As all life reflects the love from the sun
I pray to you, god of music
With your blessing and with your guidance
Guide me in creating melodies,
Guide me in creating harmonies,
Guide me in creating music that will touch the deepest parts of all who hear it
This I pray to you, Apollo, god of music
Prayer to Euterpe
Oh muse,
You who inspires the sweet songs of men
Brilliant are the words you place in the minds
Of the dreamers, the lovers, and the broken
The minds of the angry,
The hopeless,
The blissful
All are touched by your grace when thought becomes poetry
And when poetry becomes song
I pray to you to come to me
To hear my call
I wish for your blessings
Inspire me to convey my feelings in music
Inspire me to convey my thoughts in the most beautiful way
Inspire me to breathe life into the ordinary
And immortalize the epic pieces of the world around me
Come to me, muse, this I pray
When I think of Hecate
🗝 I think of witches working their spells
🗝 I think of those past being guided safely to the afterlife
🗝 I think of bonfires at midnight
🗝 I think of taking the path less traveled
🗝 I think of walking in the woods and finding yourself
🗝 I think of meditation with incense and candles
🗝 I think of changing your life with the rebirth of a new moon
Feel free to add your own! ⭐
When I think of Aphrodite...
💓 I think of love letters, and long baths with flowers in the water
💓 I think of finding the beauty in myself on days where i feel unlovable
💓 I think of feeling nervous on a first date
💓 I think of shells at the beach
💓 I think of enjoying a day just to pamper yourself
💓 I think of owning your style
💓 I think of embracing yourself and embracing who you want to become
Feel free to add your own!! 💕
Hestia, please help me to make my home a warm, safe place where everyone I love can come to to feel safe and loved.
Mother Gaia,
I feel you in my soul as I walk the forest floor
I feel you in the breaths I take of fresh, clean air
I hear you in the calling of the birds,
And in the tranquil silence of time passing by
When nature surrounds me
I feel the pull of your call,
And it is as though I am home
I pray athena gives me the wit and self control to know at what time it's better to speak and when it's better to simply listen
