☽ this is my religious side-blog, main @edwardallenpoe

☽ we are a plural system and want to explore our plurality and how it effects our spirituality and religion (we have different views among us, which is why we have so many different faiths lol)

☽ we are intersex, cis and trans, genderqueer, and use all sorts of labels for ourself and interchange with them daily, so contradictory labels and such are my jam and people who use the Gods, ancestors or Orishas (esp Aphrodite) to prove/defend their exclusionist terfish beliefs are definitely not my jam

Ennead is just Lore Olympus but somehow more racist

An amazing way to worship a deity is to embrace how complex they are. Research why that is their domain, why they achieved that epithet, that title. Tap into the unknown parts of the deity, open them up more. Look into what makes them whole, grasp the fragments and piece them together. Take advantage of knowledge and grow closer with them by knowing them.

Want to actually keep Christ in Christmas?

Cloth the naked. Feed the hungry. Quench the thirst of the thirsty. Give the poor what they need. And pray unceasingly for the world.

Instead of merely complaining on social media of the lack of Christ in Christmas, do something about it.

Spirituality doesn't work if you go to ai for guidance.

If you find a message in the wild, asking AI what it means literally completely waters it down. That AI is going to take every single resource it can find and give you a mushed up, unprovoking interpretation that "your guides are looking out for you" every time. It's uninspired and not motivated by anything but a slop machine.

When you want guidance, want spiritual connection, maybe don't go to the machine that is notorious for propagandizing you and feeding you conspiracy theories and psychosis.

I'd like to put in a good word for Hermes, whom not coincidentally I have made my profile pic for Tumblr.

In 25 years of paganism, the exact set of deities I honor has been fluid. Gods can come and go. But Hermes has been with me, more or less, for those 25 years.

In myth, he is the herald of the gods and also the Psychopompos who leads the souls of the departed to Charon.

In the daily lives of the average person, he was a god who brought protection and good fortune to the traveler, who increased the abundance of livestock and domestic resources, and who guarded the boundaries of the homestead and fields.

He was also a god of divination and Oracles of chance (as opposed to the grander Oracles of Apollo). He was a god some prayed to before sleep to bring good dreams. He is a god associated with magic, and was invoked in curse tablets (even moreso than Hecate).

Finally, he was a god of chance and athletic contests, and in the Hellenistic era he (along with Heracles) became the god of the gymnasium.

He has a few temples in Greece, but was more properly honored as a private god within the home and market place. By all accounts he was dearly loved even if gods like Zeus, Athena and Apollo had all the formal glory of the temple cults.

Now, fast forward 2500 years. Hermes, as we have seen, is associated with travel, commercial and financial abundance, and communication. This is all the more true because these are the aspects of Hermes that the Romans emphasized in their equivalent deity, Mercury.

Modern economies essentially revolve around travel, trade and finance, and communication. I feel Hermes is extremely at home in the modern world. We moderns are creatures of modern international economies (whether we want to be or not). To the degree we must be so, Hermes is a good friend to have.

Hermes is my "go to" god in daily life whom I invoke precisely for protection in travel, good luck and financial gain, and clarity in communication.

(And, truth be told, I might have had an occasion or two to invoke him in curse tablets. But that is a subject for another time).

So hail to Hermes, the multifaceted god of daily life and the modern economy!

"Omg someone drew a deity from my country as dark skinned person!! Grrr!"

Your country is billions of dollars in debt, had been in financial crisis for years, been enslaved for 400+ years, been ruined, exploited and corrupted.

Yet the thing that makes you loose your cool is someone drawing a Black Greek god.
