31 Days of Hellenic Polytheism
DAY EIGHTEEN: How can you best describe your relationship with each of your deities?
I actually already briefly wrote about my relationship with Lilith on my onesies!! I didn't know if I wanted to share it though... Welp, here we go: My relationship with Lilith progressed really really fast. Like unusually fast. When I first reached out to her, she reminded me of a mother-figure. She comforted me when I told her about everything I've been through and held me in her arms while I cried. After that though, she began to give me a more older-sister vibe. She'd hang out with me when I watched shows, not even cause she was interested in whatever I was watching (well.. maybe she was, who knows) but because she wanted to be around me without saying it.
Soon after, she became more of a friend. But a close friend. You ever have friends who you kiss platonically or get undressed together.. y'know.. platonically? She was like a super super close friend except with a slightly more sexual feel I guess? I would never want to spouse with a deity, personally I feel like that's a boundary that I, personally, shouldn't cross. But I dunno, if she ever wanted to compare breasts or something, I'm certainly bored enough and lacking in enough boundaries to go ahead and sit there to compare. Welp, now that I've mentioned anything moderately sexual in the same sentence as a spirit, I shall brace for the hate (maybe I'm too small of a blog to receive it. I guess we'll see lol)
Now for Hekate!!! I actually don't really have much to say about her. She's great, I love her, we have the same interests butttt I would say my relationship with Lilith is FAR more powerful than my relationship with Ms Hekate. To describe our relationship in a few small words, I'd say that we have a pretty new and professional relationship. She doesn't come around very often but when she is around, she's teaching me things in my dreams (which only happened once. I guess she's only really been there once actually o-o). I'd say I need to devote more time to her and establish a closer relationship with her when I have the time and money :)
DAY NINETEEN: If you had to assign one song to each of the deities you worship, what songs would you choose?
Hold on, give me an hour to scroll through my playlists "( – ⤙ – )
We're gonna break the rules and assign two (•̀ᴗ•́ )
Lilith: Blood Bitch by Cocteau Twins & Tchaikovsky: Swan Lake, Op. 20, Act 2: No. 10, scene. Moderato by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, Andre Previn, London Symphony Orchestra
C'mon. Tell me Lilith doesn't listen to Cocteau Twins. Honestly I feel like any song by Cocteau Twins is her vibe, she's just a little goth girly at heart who may or may not want to kill your babies (✿◠ᴗ◠). As for the classical song at the end, it's from swan lake (as the name says) it's the one that plays in the background of those tiktoks where it's like... how do I describe it.. The feminine rage ones that are like "nothings gonna keep me hereee!! Nobody admits anything they've done!!" and it has a few of the scenes from the movie "Pearl" too, where she's like "Why are leaving me? I don't understand why you're leaving me I THOUGHT YOU LIKED ME!!!!" That's a good movie too. Anyway, back to what I was doing,,,
Hekate: Shallow Then Halo by Cocteau Twins & The Vampire Masquerade by Peter Gundry
It took me a really long time to find ones for Ms Hekate. Again, I REALLY gotta take the time to just hang out with her. I just felt like she gave dark vibes but for some reason I kept going to artists like Mitski and Glixen to find her in there somewhere and for some reason I'd be surprised that I couldn't find anything. Again, I'm doing Cocteau Twins and something dark and classical. Cocteau Twins honestly fits a lot of helpol goddesses ngl
