I'm not one who is very confident in the words I write, but I know regardless Psyche appreciates my attempt. Finally was able to sit down and do some quick journaling. Don't mind my rough-looking handwriting and grammar/spelling mistakes. Text in the photo

Words of Praise

Beautiful goddess of the soul. Thank you for your presence & your time. Thank you for the ability to take care of myself and my mental health. I will forever be grateful for the help you provide me in those things.

Your kindness & grace will always be the refreshment my soul needs. Thank you for your presence as I do the things that uplift my soul. The joy I get from seeing new flowers bloom. The peace I feel as the warm sun & gentle breeze wash over me. The pride I get from finish[ing] a work of art or any creative project I love. These are all inspired by you & I feel my appreciation spreads to you.

May you continue to bless & help my life.

The Hellenic goddesses do not discriminate against any sex, gender, label, or identity. They never have and they never will.

Men, nonbinary people, trans people, intersex people, bigender people... everyone is welcome to worship any Hellenic goddess.

These goddesses have had worshippers of all types, sexes, and sexual orientations throughout ancient times. And they will continue to have worshippers of all kinds, always.

Only bigots are unfit for divine guidance and blessings.

(TERFs, SWERFs, RadFems, Transmeds, and misandrists who interact with this post or any of my posts will be blocked and the curse of Allmother Hera will be requested)

Gentle reminder that there is completely nothing wrong with modifying activities to accommodate your health. You can lie down to meditate or not meditate at all. You can sit down to perform rituals or not perform rituals. You can kneel, sit, or even lie down to pray. You can skip holidays/festivals if/when you need to. Do what works for you, and it will be the right thing to do. Faith and piety do not and should not mean discomfort. Our gods would not want us to worship them at the expense of our well being. It is not our gods' wishes to see their followers who love them suffer for their sakes.

Artemis's hunters and Dionysus's maenads, around a bonfire in the woods under a full moon, singing, dancing, making music, reveling in boundless joy, sharing wine, surrounded by friendly deer and leopards. 🦌🐆

Artemis is beauty. Artemis is strength. Artemis is kindness. Artemis is honesty. Artemis is elegance. Artemis is grace. Artemis is gentleness. Artemis is love.

Me: *zooming into my room, past all the altars, twirling around and around, flopping onto the floor* "Lady mother! Lady aunt! Sister! Oh you're all not going to believe this!"

Artemis, Hestia, Melinoe:

My devotion to Artemis is truly one of the most beautiful things in my life.

I love my lady mother with all my heart.
