Hermes and the Crossroad Market
In a precedent post, I shared a pun from Hermes on the French store “Carrefour” which is the term for Crossroad. It doesn’t stop here.
I sometimes hear the voice of a god at the last expected moment and Hermes seems to enjoy giving me food for thought during the groceries (My pun is involuntary, I’m not so good in English, but I suspect strongly my handsome trickster again...)
Two weeks ago, I was in Carrefour and he suddenly stated “Why don’t you start searching for a cat ? Do you think that you don’t deserve to have another one ?”
My heart ached, I admitted that Hermes touched a sore spot... That despite my desire to adopt a cat, I couldn’t start any researches without knowing exactly why...Later, at home, he returned on the subject and I realised that I was still mourning my last cat who passed away one year ago. I’m someone who can bury things very deep inside me.
Yesterday, Hermes pointed the fact that each time one of my gods want something for offering, I never hesitated the shadow of a second to buy it....But I never treat myself, I always have an excuse.”You should love yourself more !”
I promised him to work on self love, but it will take time...
A last word about offerings, none of my gods or goddesses asked for something expensive, never. But they highly value the joy, with which I prepare their offerings, the fact that I ask them often what would please them.
It’s my UPG, but sometimes, they surprise me asking an unusual offering leaving me speechless :)
