Lady Athena

⋆˚꩜｡ Olympian goddess of wisdom and good counsel, war, the defence of towns, heroic endeavour, weaving, pottery and various other crafts.

I was thinking about reading multiple books at once, by chapters. Like I'd do back in the day when I was reading fanfictions. But I can't really do that with non-fiction though.

11 year old me read about Lady Athene and that she was associated with owls and dedicated an owl necklace to her ever since. I still have it, and I still think about Her every time I see it :)

(I was a devout Christian at the time, btw. Like the definition of a 'good Christian' kid. But i still gravitated towards Hades and Athena a lot. If you told me then that I would end up worshipping the Gods I loved reading about, i would not believe you. But i love thinking about how they've always been with me, you know?)

Asked Athena to watch The Odyssey with me today and she really liked it!

i don’t post much about specific examples of praying and giving an offering and getting exactly what i need in return but recently i was making my mom a crochet blanket that i thought i definitely had enough time to finish before i did the 3hr drive to my parents house since i had 5 days before i needed to leave, but the day before i was barely halfway done.

i ended up praying (let’s be real, it was more of a begging situation) to Athena to help me focus and get into a flow state of a fiber craft project since she’s the goddess of craftsmanship and especially fiber crafts like crochet, as seen in the story of Arachne and the weaving competition. i brought out an unused pillar candle i had been saving for the right moment and lit it in her honor, and then combined a few different oils in my oil diffuser as an offering. i also turned on some history documentaries about the political side of war to watch while i worked for good measure.

y’all… i crocheted for 6 hours straight. i got through an entire cake of yarn that was about 500 meters. i ended up finishing around 1am — roughly 9 hours before i had to take off for my drive. at the risk of sounding like i’m trying to be trendy, she really came in clutch for me

praise Athena! 🩶🦉
