Hi, little question - what date are you doing Herakleia? I can't for the life of me just choose a day so I was wondering when you are going to do it lol

In Herakles by Emma Stafford she states in Athens it was celebrated in either Hekatombaion or Metageitnion, and wiki gives the date of 2 Metageitnion (which I’m pinning on 10th August). This is good enough for me for now until I can dig a bit deeper.

The Herakleia festivals were celebrated at different times through the warmer months of the year (as early as April/May on some of the islands I believe) and he had so many cults of varying importance all over Greece so … it is a lot, depending what kind of recon you wish to go with!

Hi! I had a question about your requests.

It says you can ask for more than one deity - how far does this go? I mean to ask, do you mean more than one as in Demeter and Kore, or the Kharities (assuming three Kharities here)? Or could you ask for like ... all nine Mousai or the twelve Olympians (whichever ones)...?

Not planning on asking for huge request, just curious.

hi! you can have as many in the request as you’d like :)

Yes, sorry for the confusion! It was more “don’t ask for one prayer for X and one prayer for Y in the same request”
