Tried to maintain facial structure basic in Apollo sculptures 🤔

Apollo's golden hand I felt— just as what had always surrounded me crumbled down: it was Apollo's golden hand I felt; right when borders had to build themselves to stand higher than chaos would let them, it was Apollo's golden hand I felt. with the swift change and quick glances, while starting to fear the overthinking and picturing myself on the floor, it was Apollo's golden hand there. I reach to hear your divine message in this irregular path to healing where change can mean opportunity since you cleared my mind of doubt— yourself, warm Apollo, with just a golden hand of yours.

A Prayer to Apollo

last night, i had to make the decision to go home instead of go to a concert that i was really excited about because my disability decided to act up. it was the right choice; i had a sore throat, and i was wildly exhausted, and needed the mental energy for today. if i had gone to that concert, i would've suffered today with my disability when i had a 10 hour shift. afraid of getting sick, i was sitting in front of Apollo's altar drinking tea to soothe my sore throat. i prayed and prayed and prayed that i had the strength in me to do my 10 hour shift today, and that i'd dedicate my tour today to him, but that i needed the strength, or at least encouragement. i went to sleep early, for him, to recognize that my body needed to heal, and when i woke up, every trace of fatigue was gone.

i woke up without a sore throat, with the energy and vitality, and i dedicated to making it a good day for Apollo, to thank him for his healing. I ended up having the best tour that I've ever had in my life (tour guide of 4 years), with the best tips i've ever recieved, and the sweetest people coming together admiring nature while singing songs from the 80s. Apollo was there, lingering in laughter between song verses, in the sunlight turning the van into a sauna, healing hearts through strangers singing one tune together. i was astounded and moved by my tour today, i feel like some of my faith in humanity is restored.

Apollo heard my prayer, not only of healing my body, but healing my heart just a little, too.

Personal prayers based on epithets 💜

Artemis 🌙 🦌 🏹

Praise to divine Artemis of the wolves and of the deer. She of the hunt and of the fire. Swift running archer who haunts the forest and roams in the night. Shooter from afar.

She of the hymns. She who soothes. Light-bringer Phoebe. Willow-bound and royal Diana. Beautiful empress who bears a golden sword on a golden throne. Strong-voiced revered maiden.

Beloved and loving priestess. Holy guardian who stands before the door. Immortal torch-bearer. Goddess queen of beasts. Praise be to Artemis, deliverer and savior.

Apollo 🎼 ☀️ 🦢

Praise to holy Apollo with the silver bow. Bright son of Leto and of Delphi. He of the oracle. Prophetic healer and foreseeing averter of harm. Light-bringer and destroyer of evil.

He of the locusts and the wolves. He of the python and the dolphin. He of the ash-trees. Rescuer and helper. Wandering physician. Far-worker and rouser of armies.

He who watches the heavens. Leader of the muses. He who protects the streets and bestower of Dionysus. Praise be to Apollo, shining light of the sun.

Hekate 🗝 🔥 🐕

Praise to mighty Hekate, destroyer and child of Perses. She of the underworld. She of the wayside and the crossroads. Irresistible and indomitable queen of those below. Holy bringer of light.

She who holds the keys. She who haunts the mountains. Nocturnal one. Fond of solitude and hidden. She who wanders in the night. Lovely and revered only begotten maiden.

Immortal guardian and spinner of fate. Leader of the dogs heralded by roaring beasts. Three-formed protectress at the gate. Praise to Hekate, attendant and guide.

Let me know in the tags if there are any other deities you'd like to see! 💜

Praise today, O Lord Apollo and Lady Artemis, rulers upon the Sun and Moon.

The Celestial Twins, on this date, join each other in the sky, shining upon us their divine light and presence.

Praise the children of Great Zeus and Leto;

Hail Lady Artemis, the oldest daughter, who helped her mother at birth. Godess of the hunt, divine virgin, patroness of girls, their childhood and innocence.

Hail Apollon, youngest son, born by his sister's hand. God of the plages and sickness. Patron of the arts, music and poetry.

May they raise their bows and guide us towards their light.

[seasaltandwisdom]

i call this prayer to honor you and express my admiration.

bright shining apollon, hear my words and please enjoy the offerings i give you throughout the day.

it will be as you allow it 💛

[patience-and-prayers]

I’m thankful for Hermes and travel, and I feel him when I drive, or am at the farmers market.

I’m grateful for Apollo and music, philosophy and how he shines through each rhythm and beat in the music I listen to.

I’m appreciative of Artemis and the independence she brings me, strength and the courage that passes through when standing up for what I believe in. The connection with wildlife and instincts, the empowerment I feel from her as a woman, all of it I owe to her.

The Gods look at us worshippers and smile, knowing they are treasured.

Offerings for Apollo, the Greek god of the Sun, Music, and Poetry…etc.

1: Music related objects. Since he’s the god of music, music related ANYTHING will work as an offering. Time to break out those old 2016 vinyls you bought and never used because you remembered you couldn’t afford a record player! 2: Art related things. Not only is he the god of music, but also art. Paint, oil pastels, or even PENCILS could work. 3: poetry. Yeah, this is self-explanatory. 4: Archery stuff. Own a bow and arrow you never used? Use it as an offering, Apollo will love it. 5: Frankincense, Laurel, Apples, Hyacinthus or Cypress. These are ALL things he represent. 6: Your own art of things he represents. Highly recommend. He also represents dolphins, lions, griffins, and swans. 7: Anything golden in color. Seriously. Own some gold hoop earrings? Trust me, he’ll take ‘em. 8: Depictions of the sun or anything related to the sun and light. 9: Golden cakes. Yummers. 10: Orange juice. Or any yellow juice, actually. 11: Yellow Jasper and sunstone. If you saw my Selene offerings post, you should know what to do with these. Use them in prayer, or blessing your tea!

Have fun working with Apollo! Good luck! ☀️

“and the rain, it washes away the pain

‘cause it feels like the sound of your voice

and i’m comforted by the sweet smells of dew

because the sunrise reminds me of you”

A prayer poem to Apollo and this Winter Solstice

Apollo, master of the fleeting light,

On this brief day, embrace the night.

With nimble fingers on the lyre's strings,

Let your melody in our souls sing.

Bless this shortest day, Apollo divine,

With gifts of knowledge, let wisdom shine.

In shadows deep, reveal paths unseen,

Illuminate minds with intellect keen.

Your radiant chariot in the sky,

Chasing the sun, so swift and high.

On this day of brevity, we pray,

Bestow upon us the light of day.

Apollo, god of the fleeting glow,

Guide us through darkness as we go.

In your celestial dance, we find,

Hope and warmth for all humankind.

[anathemacloud]

Apollo of Olympus,

Bringer of the sun so

Perfect in his beauty, who loves

Like a dagger.

His prophecy and knowledge,

Accurate and swift

As his arrows whose targets are

Pierced in quick motion.

Healer on whim and

Poet in heart,

His soul strikes all with

Infatuation.
