Yall have got to start making self insert art of you and your gods together you have to. Start. Today. It is extremely important.

You gotta stop just drawing them, you must draw yourself alongside them you must you gotta you have to it’s not optional it’s mandatory you gotta do it right now

“I don’t like drawing myself!”

Bitch neither do I but there must be at least one piece of media in the world of me and my God together and the same applies to you my dear friend

“But it’ll look ugly!”

3000 YEARS AGO THEY CARVED STICK MEN INTO STONE

The only reason I know the gods were loved is because someone took the time to write it down of draw about it. It’s never ugly you fool. It is always art.

This is a warning.

You must make self insert art of you and your gods together

you have to you just have to

Go do it right now. Go. Fly high.

Ækátî is a great Goddess of Light, yet she is associated with the Night

In some ancient literature and in the beliefs of some contemporary polytheistic communities, Ækátî is a "dark" Goddess and a type of witch. This is a complete misunderstanding and a great sacrilege. Like all Gods and Goddesses, Ækátî is a being of immense light. There is nothing but light in this Goddess. If this is so, then why is Ækátî called Nyktǽria (Nykteria, Νυκτέρια), an epithet meaning "of the night?" It is because, like the great Goddess Nyx (Νύξ), Ækátî operates in an area that is irrational and inaccessible to mortals, hence it is hidden from us as though concealed by night. Ækátî is the daughter of Astæría (Asteria, Ἀστερία), the starry one, and Pǽrsîs (Persês, Πέρσης), who is also connected with the stars and fire; therefore, even though her parents are connected with the night, they are of the stars, celestial bodies which give light, but which can only be perceived in darkness. One of Ækátî's epithets is phôsphóros (phôsphorus, φωσφόρος), an epithet meaning "bringing light." Ækátî has hidden means to give help, particularly when we cannot see our way through difficult problems. Her name means, "she who works from afar."

*Posts first devotional art and throws phone away*

*Ahem*, anyways. Here's my original "character" design of Hermes based of off his mythology, historic depictions and my imagination.

I plan on making more art of him (including hat off, different outfits, flying, etc), but I just wanted to share the design first. I am/was struggling to get his skin tone just right (I'm picturing a medium-ish olive); it's harder than it looks! So stay on the lookout for some changes.
