Idk if this is out of your scope of knowledge or not but I have met some one who claims they worship the titans. Like no gods just titans. And it set me as kinda off. Like granted I'm not super well versed in greek mythology but cant that like hurt them for dealing with the titans exclusively

teawiththegods answered:

Nope there’s nothing wrong with worshiping the Titans. Kronos was actually very respected by the Ancient Greeks and was worshiped, celebrated, and honored. This is an example of why it’s so important to look past mythology and instead focus on the actual religion of the Greeks.

That’s very true.

Beautiful Devotee Necklaces!

TopShop do these beautiful necklaces based of the Greek goddess called the Freedom Goddess Collection! I personally have one of Artemis and I keep it on all the time as a token of my respect for her!

I have come across all of them except Artemis in stores, the Artemis one was a present for Christmas and was ordered online I believe! But I’ve seen others get it in stores.

mynameisvernal asked:

How do you go about offering offerings? So far I've only put out nuts, berries, and water, because those can all go to birds and plants. I see people offering cakes and other foods and I'm just confused on what you eventually do with them. Sidenote I don't work with any deities in particular, I just try to thank nature and whatever beings might be around me.

heatherwitch answered:

I have this post talking about offerings (and what to do with food offerings if you don’t want to leave them out)

For offerings in the forest, I typically offer:

Rocks from other places, decorated rocks or crystals.
Plant seeds of native plants.
Water plants if it’s dry there.
Help care take a local wild area (remove garbage, invasive plants, etc., but make sure you have the right to do it!)
A song, poem, or artwork.
Craft something with natural materials and offer it (I’ve made little sculptures out of river clay, cordage with natural fibers, etc.)
I personally avoid offering food—I don’t want animals to associate people with food. If I did give an offering it would be seeds or unsalted nuts.
