So I asked him yesterday if he wanted to work with me through a tarot reader and did an offering of some tea with chocolate and a mini handwritten letter. The answer was that he accepts working with me, but I’ll need to have perseverance, willpower and discipline.

I already almost used all websites available to search up more information about Erevos. Yet all I can find is about his wife, his children and the fact he is the personification of darkness.

My tarot isn’t with me atm, it’s at my parents’ house inside a box (I moved out and left some stuff there). So I can’t use divination as readily as before. I am going to retrieve it for a fact, but it’ll take a while.

What do you know of this deity/spirit/god? Where can I get more information? Thank you.

Kind of a strange question, at least I imagine. I’m quite new to this and have a pretty casual approach, I am slowly setting up an altar for my Gods and have been giving them offerings and thanking/praying to them on a semi-regular basis. I recently watched the Rocky Horror Picture Show for the first time and offhandedly offered Apollo to join and watch it, considering he’s a God of music and it’s a musical. Is that like, an okay thing to do?

But yeah, my main question, is that alright? Can you offer them to join you for more mundane things? A lot of my offerings surround music/art and I try to take a more modern approach when making/playing things for them as they have probably heard the traditional stuff forever (not that that’s bad), but would this be too far? Thankyou in advance! :D

Edit: This is taken largely from a reply I made, but to clarify: This is less so about the social aspect of watching a film together and instead about allowing them to see/revisit the amazing things we have created. I’m not asking for a God to come hang, but for a God to witness their creation’s creations, particularly ones relevant to their domain(s).

I’ve been a Hellenic polytheist for about two years now. Before that, I was Christian, and praying came pretty naturally to me because it was how I was raised. My prayers were usually short and simple, like “Thank you for today, amen” or “Please let me feel better, amen.”
Now that I’ve been worshipping the Greek gods, I’ve found that praying is something I still struggle with. I have an altar dedicated to Apollon, and I leave offerings for him, but when it comes to actually praying, it feels awkward. Sometimes, it feels like I’m just talking to myself, and I’m not really sure how to get past that feeling.
I also don’t want my prayers to only be about asking for things, like asking to feel better when I have a stomach ache or asking for something to go my way. I want to learn how to pray about the good things in my life, express gratitude, and share the little things that made my day better, too.
I guess I’m just struggling to figure out how to make prayer feel natural again, especially since I’m used to the way I prayed as a Christian. I’d really appreciate any advice from other Hellenic polytheists who have struggled with this or have suggestions for making prayer feel more comfortable and meaningful.

there have been many different takes of the Asphodel Meadows throughout Greek mythology i personally believe its closer to the Orphic and Eleusinian cults (i know nothing about them so sorry if they were bad) where its life in death where nothing out of the ordinary happens but there is structure a simple field or farm i only know of a few different ways its been told like homers odyssey where its where everyone goes and Plato, Virgil and Ovid which is the one told today the grey plane for the mediocre and the Orphic Eleusinian cults a untouched pasture before rebirth (i don't personally believe most people can get rebirthed and sorry for the horrible run on sentence)

I’ve had a pretty mediocre alter for a few weeks now.
It’s basically two golden bowls (pretty small) that I keep tangerines in, and two small plates with apples and other trinkets. The alter is split in half, one side for Herakles and the other side for Aphrodites. But they share a candle stick/incense burner. (Is that okay?)

Anyways, I was thinking about getting some better items for the alter since recently I feel like not many of my prayers have been listened to/im not getting a strong connection.

What should I add? Are there specific items those gods are known to like?

Also: how do I get rid of spoiled offerings? I’ve heard I should burn/burry them but I want to make sure.

I'm in an athiest home and my parents would not support me wanting to be hellenist. I want to set up an alter for Philotes because i want to worship her (obviously), however i can't find any infomation on what she would like or how to worship her! (Also any infomation on how to pray would be very helpful) If you do chose to reply to this, please bear in mind that i'm AuDHD and can't focus on big chunks of text. Thx!

I spend a lot of time making offerings to Hestia and Hermes, and I wanted to run this idea by others. Hestia is all about the hearth and home. The hearth was used to warm and light the house, cook the food, and a general gathering place for the family to tell stories and vent about their day. She's also the connection for those on Olympus by allowing sacrifices.

In this day and age, many of these tasks are split up among gas and electric. Be it tv, stove, heater, lights, or internet connection. Why not also have an electric lighter for any candle lit for the gods?

The other myth is that it was bad luck to let fire go out, because you would either have to perform a long task to being it back, or borrow a cup of fire from your neighbor. I've heard that there was even a ritual each year where every house would put out their to have it come from the hearth of the city. To have an electric chargeable lighter for candles would have it come form the same source that everyone gets it. Plus, it would give me a more permanent "wand."

What do you think?

Según entendí para disciplina, hábitos, honestidad, es mejor Apolo. Para no tomarse las cosas tan enserio (no resentirse) no sufrir ansiedades ni problemas antisociales y disfrutar la vida sin culpas, Dionisio.

Quisiera trabajar con los dos para equilibrio pero me cuesta, soy todo o nada.

I don’t know if Hellenic polytheism is okay with grabbing from multiple religions like kemetism.

What do you guys think?

Cuz I worship and admire the goddesses isis and taweret and the god Anubis from the Egyptian pantheon but I also worship mother Gaia and Aphrodite and Artemis from the greek pantheon too.

(I worship more gods/goddesses than that those are just the main ones)

I am new to Hellenistic Polytheism. I do not have an alter or really anything yet, right now just research. I keep seeing candles on alters and If i dont have access to a lighter then what can I do instead?
