Does anyone else feel that what the ancients said Hera did and felt towards Hephaestus was untrue? I’ve always viewed her as kind, open, maternal. And I think the ancients projected their own feelings, biases, views of disabled people as dirty or unwanted onto her. As they have done with stories of rape and misogyny. I choose to believe that even if there was discourse and hesitation towards him, she loved her son.

I feel, from Hera, a request to be better. Kinder. Respectful. To endure without malice, despite what the ancients say she may have done to Zeus’s lovers.

My evening prayer template

A.K.A. a step-by-step guide on how to do a big final prayer of the day if you want to do it like me.

Clean and cleanse your hands (I use blessed hand sanitizer but rarely do so because I'm most often straight out of the shower).

Light the candles (I always start with Hestia's, then go on to Aphrodite's because it's on the same altar, and then Hermes's. [Optionally, as I light the candles - you may change this in accordance to which gods you have an altar for:] "Dear Hestia, keep the flames burning as I carry out this ritual. Loveliest Aphrodite, fill the conversation between us with love. Hermes, master of communication, please assure that it flows steadily."

"Thank you, my dearest gods, for being in, and influencing, my life, as well as doing things for this world out of your godly nature regardless of my existence in it." Next, I say individual thanks to gods I specifically received favors and aid from when I asked for it if such an event had taken place.

After that, I ask for favors, blessings, or guidance from specific gods if I feel like I want to ask for their help. If I ask gods I am not devoted to, I often "pay" them in advance with an incentive offering. The three I am devoted to often either don't demand it because I give them love and gifts on the regular or have enough trust in me to know that I'll reward them handsomely when the deed is done (Hermes often makes me swear on my life that I'll bring him some strawberry candies :P ).

This is the freestyle part. Good especially for people with good godphone, but a one-sided conversation will do too. Just talk with them casually about anything you want, ask them how they are, etc. Even if they know your inner turmoils or how your day went, conversation deepens bonds and they'll be glad to hear about it straight from you.

Put out the candles in the reverse order to the one in which you lit them. Before blowing out each candle, I say "[god's name], once again thank you for everything you do for me. Good night, I love you. Khaire." When it comes down to Hestia, I also add "Thank you for your service" in reference to her keeping of the altar flame and therefore being the most important goddess in any ritual.

Here's also a shorter prayer for when I have no energy to light the candles (or am in a place where all I can do is think-pray while I lay down in bed) and speak elaborately:

"My dearest gods, thank you for being in my life [+optional individual thanks here]. Please, continue guiding me towards the path that will make me the happiest and you most content with me, and aid me in being the best, kindest person I can be. Khaire."
