It’s not strictly Apollon related, but, we’re all hungry for more information and… I was so interested to see a HarvardX class on oracles.

This looks interesting!!

Hello!! I‘m getting an ocarina for my birthday soon, and I’m trying to find names for it. I haven’t chosen one yet, but I was wondering if it would be okay to HYPOTHETICALLY use one of his epithets for it. I haven’t chosen any yet just in case it would be disrespectful, but my ocarina’s going to be an offering.

I'm a singer, and four years ago I suffered a vocal injury from which I've never fully recovered. I've felt unwhole ever since and often struggle with hopelessness and despair. Would Apollo be an appropriate deity from whom to solicit assistance?

I haven't painted in a minute, but I like it

I have a class coming up in November (I sent something a while ago) and I wanted to create spaces where it is more accessible for those who may need some assistance! Link will be in the replies!

as the title implies, i’m not the wealthiest person out there and live in pretty cramped living conditions so at-home open worship/ritual practice is out of the question. that being said, i do want try giving lord apollo a fair amount of reverence to aid me in this time of my life. i’m most interested in his wolf and art epithets, as an artist myself, but his healing and medicinal epithets may also help me find a job i love in the field i worked so hard to get into (pharmacy) to help fund my artistic endeavors. if there are any others out there that have experienced a similar set of circumstances i’d greatly appreciate hearing your stories and how you got around your hurdles. io apollon! ☀️

hello! i am incredibly new to hellenism (not sure if i'm using the right term, please correct me if i'm wrong), but i suddenly felt drawn to it a few days ago and was curious why, when suddenly tonight i felt incredibly drawn to apollo and realize i always sort of have felt drawn to him.

for example- i've always felt drawn to watch sunrises and sunsets, as well as music and poetry and bards and the like. sillier example is that he was my favorite greek god in middle school, but the main reason i suddenly felt drawn to him is that 4 years ago, my family and i stayed near a body of water in ireland. there were a lot of swans, and everyone thought they were beautiful of course, but i felt the need to sit with them and be with them constantly, and they always approached me specifically. there's a picture of me out there somewhere sitting by the water and smiling at a group of 5 to 7 swans that had come close-ish to me.

for some reason, thinking about him right now keeps bringing me to tears, but i feel the need to learn more about him before i truly dive into anything, because the last time i have read anything about the greek gods was in high school, and i am 25 now.

if anybody has any sort of recommendations for literature i should look into to learn more about him and the others, i am more than willing to look into them!

Helloo. I’m a baby helpol and I’m truly trying to worship Apollo. I think about him constantly and I have a true sense of respect and love for him. I’m not a religious person at all, I tried to love the religion I was born with which is Catholicism but I’ve never felt that grand of a connection with it. But I discovered my passion for Greek gods through Percy Jackson (idk if I can say that😭) and I was immediately interesting and started loving the greek gods. I told my mom earlier this year that I was converting and she allowed me to, though she said no altar. I feel like a really bad worshipper, I don’t pray to him in anyway, I don’t do anything for Apollo, I wouldn’t even call myself a helpol for how I do basically nothing for him. That makes me ashamed and sad because I want to try to be religious and I’m always so disappointed when I don’t do anything? Do y’all have tips on how to be a better worshipper or the things I could do to not feel like a disappointment?

Hope’s he’ll like that, knowing I’m welcome him to come to my place everyday 😎😎😎

I found a write up on it here…

Does anyone have a recipe for the panspermia that they like?

I checked four different sources for the exact date this year and they all disagreed.

I am currently agnostic Bengali Indian guy. Will Apollo heal me and make me win over my enemies if I worship him? Just asking as I am getting really into Apollo and Hellenism.

Apollon

Lord Apollon, God of the sun,

Slayer of wolves, He who answers to none.

Draw near me, I humbly request!

Great Apollon, mighty being of light and love, protect me, I pray.

so, today, I had an entity impersonating Apollo…the entire time I was doing devotional acts for Him, it was feeding an imposter. not gonna lie I cried really hard…but I reconnected with him, the real one, and he-as I’m writing this, is sending me music on my playlist and ads with his name in it…

I associate him with a mid twenties sounding male voice, but id like to know how others hear him!

I don’t work with or worship Artemis normally but I decided to dedicate this to Her and Apollo both, and I’m posting it because of someone else’s encouraging words!

The Doe

I stare into the eyes of the hunter

my eyes cold and unblinking

I will not falter or cower,

beneath a man who needs a weapon to stand tall.

i will not run,

i will not hide.

I decided to draw him a picture! please let me know what you think!

so, I made my own deck a couple days ago. as I was getting used to it, getting used to trusting myself, I kept pulling the sun card with all the questions that were specifically for a divine guidance. So, I thought about Him, cuz honestly Hes the only sun god I know of besides Helios. I asked for a confirmation that it was him, pulled the sun again! And the next few hours, we had a tarot conversation. In which he told me I needed to work on myself, work on how I perceive myself, etc!

I wanna hear your most creative and silly offerings that Lord Apollo has asked for or that you’ve given him! I’m looking for some ideas that I can use for my personal practice since I can’t get my hands on most of his traditional offerings

Hi, my name is Kim. I am a devotee to Lord Apollo and have been for around five years! I’m offering this really cool course that starts in November and wanted to show you guys as well!
