Pnèvma tis Olympìas

Welcome to Hellnes of Orlando! We are an online Hellenic Pagan community dedicated to the study and worship of the Theoi, spirits, and heroes of the Hellenic (Greek) Pantheon. You are welcome to join us if you follow the Greek Gods and Goddesses, are interested in learning more about these Deities, seek to find a community of open minded, caring polytheists, or are just learning about Hellenic Paganism. It is a place for all Hellenes to gather together and share in the experiences of Hellenismos. We hope to learn about the different Gods and Goddesses of the Hellenic Pantheon through studying the official myths, personal UPG, education, and shared experiences. We provide a safe space to learn and grow using both ancient and modern practices. Our ultimate goal is to become an in-person group and expand beyond Orlando through an official Demos.

A fun video for learning about how to respond to messages and communication from your Gods.

Greek Heroes

Here is a question for you all. As I began to dive deeper into Hellenism I have started to become more acclimated with the heroes of ancient Greece as well as the Theoi. I have not personally added worship of the heroes in my personal practice, but it is something that peaked my interest for the future. The question I have for you all is: if you could choose your favorite myth of a Greek hero, which one would that be? Does this myth involve a deity you have interest in that would make the myth more interesting to you?

Thought for the day

Hey thriftcrafters. Here’s a question for you. If you had to pick one item out of all of the witchy hauls that you have had, which item would be your favorite or most prized?

[thriftingwitch]

Hello thriftcrafters. As I launch the new Daily Deity series I will give a preview of what’s to come before posting the videos. I will be posting the videos on Fridays (my available time).

The first video in the series will be about a 30 day working with a specific deity called the 30 day deity challenge. Hope you guys will enjoy.

Zeus

This is the month of Zeus. Orlando had been storming all month. A lot of thundering and lightning happening. It doesn't just end with his libation.

[thriftingwitch]

Hey there thriftcrafters. I am starting a new series on the YouTube page. Be on the lookout. I’m going to start with the more common Greek Gods and Goddesses. I encourage you all the message me if there is a particular deity you want to be featured. Keep on thrifting…

Happy Libation to Zeus!

Hera Libation 1.12.19

Sorry I haven't been keeping up with posting everything. It's been a busy couple of months. I wanted to post pictures from the recent Hera libation. There will also be a video app once I get the footage together. Hope you all had good libations.

[hellensoforlando]

A very successful libation to Dionysus 12.8.18! Hope all of your libations were just as fun 😁🍇🍇🍇🍷🍷🍷

Dionysus Libation Prep

Something interesting you can do is a homemade offering. For this libation I am making grape juice. It's super easy:

Blender, grapes, funnel, strainer, water, bottle

Fill the blender with as many grapes as you'd like. Then pour some water in to add to the juice. Blend the grapes to liquid form. There will be grape skins in there which you are more than welcome to use. I choose to use them after for something else. Using the funnel, place into the bottle of your choice. Place the strainer over the funnel. Pour juice into funnel, but leave some space in the bottle to shake it after. Use any extra juice for whatever you'd like. Add honey if you'd like for extra flavor. I like to eat the grape skins after. You don't have to. You can throw them away if you wish. There you have it.

During the process make sure to put your energies and intentions for the libation into the offering. What has Dionysus done for you? What does he mean to you as a God? Things of that nature. And feel free to invite him in to join. He loves chaos though so be careful. Just a thought for anyone doing his libation on 12.8.18

Thanks all...

I made a spur of the moment love satchel with my Goddess Aphrodite. It has rose petals, lavender, lodestones powder, a rose quartz crystal, a rose pedal, and a picture representation of Her. Say a prayer from the heart and embrace Her energies of love and warmth.

Loving my new Hellenic Oracle deck. I have one already, but this one has inspiring art. The book is ok. The art truly tells the story of the messages from my Gods.

Share

Alright. I have some new followers. I want to take this further than just liking and reblogging. First of all please join the Facebook group so you can get events and discussions easier than on here. Also I will try and post as much as I can and hope to open up dialogue. So here is the question of the day. If you had to choose a deity, spirit, or hero not part of the main 13 (I count both Dionysus and Hestia instead of one or the other) who would it be? I think for my demi-Gods I would go with Iris and Pan. For my spirits I would say The Muses. For my hero, I always liked the story of Perseus. Tell me what you guys think.

Dionysus Libation

Ok. For those who are in the Florida area near Orlando I want to extend an invitation to the libation to Dionysus. Every second Saturday serves as a monthly libation to one of the Theoi. December 8 is the date for that libation. What ideas do you all have? I think this would be a great first meeting for all of us and a way to launch our Hellenism in Orlando. Also, spread the word about the group. I want it to be great. Theoi bless.

Yule and Hellenism

Hey everyone. So impose this question for you all. As well as being a Hellenic practitioner I am also a traditional witch. What kinds of celebrations do you think someone who is both hellenic and a witch do for Yule? What deities would you say are appropriate with the Theoi? I may end up just creating my own thing. I like to hear other people's thoughts too.
