Guess who's trying (and failing-) to make a stick & poke of two envelopes bc they love Hermes so much- I still need to so the second one but I want the first one to look good before I start the second one and both are unfinished or something like that aye. My mom probably wouldn't allow a tattoo so I'll just do it myself (hopefully without accidentally killing myself or smth)

Do 👏🏼 not  👏🏼 police  👏🏼 other  👏🏼 people’s  👏🏼 craft.

It is not up to you to decide what people can practice.  

It is not up to you to decide how people practice.  

Someone’s relationship with their deities is not your business.

Check your ego at the door.  

If you want a religion that encourages policing other people’s lives/decisions/spiritual relationships/spiritual practices, then 👏🏼PAGANISM 👏🏼 IS NOT 👏🏼 FOR YOU. 👏🏼

“But What about appropriation?” If it is YOUR cultural heritage someone is appropriating, bring it to their attention why you are not comfortable with having your culture/religion used incorrectly. 

If it is NOT your cultural heritage, and you suspect someone *might* be appropriating, explain what appropriation is and why it’s a problem, but otherwise, it is not your place to police someone’s spirituality. 

“What if they are abusing themselves/others/inflicting torture on animals”  This is literally the only time where it is okay to tell someone they are misrepresenting paganism/witchcraft.

Recently I was told that Hellenismos is a religion full of despair. That’s a bunch of bullshit, and I think everyone should reblog this with examples of how the Theoi give you hope

[flowerwitchboi-blog]

Even just the smallest things, like asking Hermes to protect me on my way reduces my anxiety immensely and helps me enjoy trips more without constantly being scared that the car/bus could crash

[iantowolf-blog]

I made a Poseidon aesthetic because I felt like I have to do something for the Theoi and Poseidon just felt right right now so yeah. That’s for you, Poseidon. Please give credit/ask me when you use it, that would be nice

[flowerwitchboi-blog]

From old blog aye

[iantowolf-blog]

Another aesthetic, I hope you all are not mad at me, I’m still trying to get better at them, I’m gonna do all Olympians and Hades, Persephone, probably Hypnos and Thanatos and Pan too Welp. I hope you like them.

[flowerwitchboi-blog]
