Broken rock, 5th April 2026.
I've seen this saying being passed around a few times. Not sure where it is from, but I love it:
If you don't know who to pray to, then pray to Hermes. Even if he cannot help you, he knows someone who can.
The amount of ai art I see when trying to search for art of deities, Cernunnos specifically, is extremely disheartening. Like, why would you be using AI for a god of the wild? You are literally destroying him every time you use ai. Barf gross boo tomato tomato
If you are collecting seashells, please remember to keep the shortage of shells for hermit crabs in mind!
It's a massive issue that the over-collection of seashells has led to. While efforts are being made to attempt to combat the problem, those of us who live near coasts and hermit crab populated areas can help our crabby friends by keeping our hands off the shells that hermit crabs use as homes!
You may be wondering, "Stag, what does this have to do with Hellenic Polytheism?" Many worshippers and devotees of ocean-related deities like to collect seashells and give them as offerings, so this is somewhat of a PSA to maybe think twice before picking up certain shells.
Hermit crab seashells can look like the following:
If you're dead set on collecting a seashell, please focus on flat ones. They're far less likely to be used as hermit crab homes. And as always, if you happen to see trash on beaches or in hermit crab populated areas, please throw it away, even if it isn't yours. You could be saving a crabby - or another animal - life!
The sea is a temple. The woods are a temple. Your own bedroom is a temple. The world is imbued with the spiritual. Worship is an act, not a place, and it can happen spontaneously, in reaction to the beauty of a moment.
Red flag behaviors to watch out for in witchcraft and pagan communities
Someone tries to dictate your beliefs and/or practice based on their personal experiences (aka UPG, or unverified personal gnosis).
They claim the gods will punish you if you don't go along with them.
They appeal to conspiracy theories to justify their beliefs. (See also Is the spiritual person a conspiracy theorist? A list of red flags.)
They make big, dramatic predictions (like claiming aliens will arrive on a certain date, or that the ancient gods will return and overthrow the government soon).
They claim to have a big, important role in the grand cosmic drama (like claiming they're the Archangel Michael and they're going to fight Satan, which will lead to the fall of the government).
They are extremely opposed to skepticism, critical thinking, and/or academia. Not merely critical where it's actually appropriate, but treating it like it's all pure evil.
They encourage you to cut off people who don't believe or criticize what they teach.
They are absolutely certain they can use mystical means (like astrology or tarot) to determine whether someone is a good or bad person.
They are absolutely certain they can just sense whether someone is good or bad.
They are absolutely certain they can use mystical means to find out what another person is thinking or doing.
They claim you were connected to them in a past life.
They pressure you into uncomfortable or dangerous practices.

source? it was revealed during my nature walk.

Hellenic Pagans when they're trying to do actual research on their deities but they just keep getting stuff for Lore Olympus, Hades game, Epic the Musical, etc:
Theistic Satanists, Luciferians and other people who work with demons when they're trying to do actual research on their guides but keep getting stuff for Helluva Boss:
Norse Pagans and Heathens when they have to sift through 5 different layers of Nazi bullshit just to find a single credible source that isn't bigoted:
Celtic Pagans who are trying to research their deities but keep just finding repackaged Wiccan traditions that aren't historical at fucking all:
Kemetic Pagans trying to find actual quality historically accurate information about Ancient Egyptian Religion but just keep running into stuff that Victorian "scholars" just made the fuck up:
Roman Pagans watching people treat their religion like it's basically just Hellenic Polytheism but slightly to the left when it's so much more complex than that:
Slavic Pagans trying to find a single fucking credible source on their religion and find another person who also practices it:
I'm sure there's way more things like this but I can't think of them rn. We should all kiss about this btw
Hypnos of the sleepless,
Hypnos of those tossing and turning in bed,
Hypnos of 3am cigarettes.
Hypnos of the sleepy,
Hypnos of the constantly tired,
Hypnos of those who try to escape their reality in their sleep.
Hypnos of the sleeping pills,
Hypnos of the meds that cause insomnia as a side effect,
Hypnos of those for whom the bed feels like a battlefield.
why are you posting about freyja like she's viking aphrodite man? is something wrong with you?
using the word ‘religious’ or ‘religion’ when you just mean christians or christianity de-credits your criticism of colonial christianity and the harm it does to society.
you are just advertising you see any religions as the same and don’t have intersectionality in your philosophy.
you are just ignoring culturally important and bipoc religions and diminishing them by not including them in the word religion.
