HELLENIC AND KEMETIC POLYTHEIST/PAGANS COME TO ME! I NEED ANSWERS
Hiiiiiii, i'm Eliot and i'm trying to get into the hellenistic and kemetic religion,i already tried to be a Loki devotee but i did It HORRIBLY (I only had One green candle,no offerings,no sylbols,no nothing,I Just talked to the candle) i'm so Sorry for lord Loki for how BADLY I treated him
now i'm trying to be a Hermes and Thoth devotee, Hermes because i genualy feel a very Deep connection With him,idk how to explain It,i feel it in my soul, and Thoth because i really enjoy learning new things and i like writing (i Want to become a writer yk)
But idk how to do It well, i know the basics,the main thing Is having a candle, you should give offerings that change based on the God i'm going them to, i should add some sylbols of the gods on their altars ect...
SO HERE MY QUESTIONS FOR YALL! (Pls be kind With them, don't insult me)
I don't have any free shelf or something like that for and Altar, all i have Is my desk, Is It still valid for making an Altar?
Do i Need to put Hermes's and Thoth's altars very far away from eachother? (Since yk, they're from different cultures ect...) Or they can be next to/near eachother Without any problem?
For divination, Is the tarot card and dice method good? If yes, I was thinking about using the egyptian tarot cards for Thoth,obvius reason, but (get ready for a STUPID question) are they olso good to use for Hermes too? Before i get another deck of tarot cards that Aren't egyptian
I Heard that there are some Daily things you can do to be closer to the gods or something,like for Hermes you can be kind to like bus drivers,taxi drivers ect... People that help you travel, leaving coins around,greeting him every time you go out ect... Are there some similar things for Thoth too? Like i know that for him i could like write my book everyday and learn a new thing Daily but are there other things?
The candle,Is It a SHITTY idea to keep It burining 24/7? Plus,do i Need to ask the God to light up and close their candle?
Do the gods get mad if i read/Watch things that Aren't like documentaries or classic book or something like that? Like of i play Hades (the videogame),Watch Blood of Zeus, listen to Epic the musical (i'll admit that i used to olso read Ennead and i deeply regret It) and things like that they will get mad?
This Is something specific to Hermes, i called my cat Hermes After him, does this thing Will make him mad?
Still for Hermes,I have a candle that i buyed thinking about using It for his altar,Is this candle good?
Ok so this was all, if you Want to give me more advice for my devotion to Hermes and Thoth feel free to do It!, thank you so much if you answer my questions and have a good day!
