#morpheus worship

[confused-theist]

Do you think Hypnos relishes in cradling newborns, asleep more often than they are awake?

Do you think Morpheus smiles at lucid dreamers as they explore his realm, mesmerized and delighted by the beauty of it?

Do you think Hypnos runs a gentle hand through your hair as you nap away a headache?

Do you think Morpheus shapes a child's dream after their favorite bedtime story, just to bring them joy?

Do you think Hypnos holds you in his arms just a bit closer when someone tries to wake you but you still need more rest?

Do you think Morpheus watches encouragingly as you lay in bed in the morning, trying to remember what you dreamed about?

What to do when you lose touch with your faith?

So, recently I've found that my interest and devotion to my faith plummeted. There was a few reasons for this that I can name.

One is that I'm autistic and hyperfixations and the end of them are how I exist. I tend to get really hyperfixated on something, it lasts a month (almost always exactly) and then it stops being super super interesting to me. I don't loose the interest, just the intensity and urgency of it changes. I got super hyper fixated on Lord Morpheus, my religion, learning about Greek mythology and hellenism at the end of October and its life cycle just ended.

Also I lost my bracelet that I wore to represent Morpheus. Its hard not to ask if there's meaning in something like that happening.

So, now what?

Last couple days, I realised that my interest had shifted and I had gotten really busy and that I wanted to try to rebalance the scales. Now it's not about how to do my religion, it's about how to make it sustainable.

I feel like people can get so hung up about the guilt of not actively practicing all the time or when the gods feel distant. The way I see it, this is normal. Yes, it can feel alarming and disheartening, but religion is a life long path. Its something your planning on doing for the rest of your life, of course it will come and go in waves. That is how everything else in my life acts. My interests, my passions, my relationships, my health. It comes and goes and why would I expect my religious practices and spirituality be any different?

I feel like it can be easy to forget that being pagan can be so lonely sometimes. Back in the good old days, everyone in town would collectively go to a building together on a day they all had off work and would go do religion. It was hard to miss! And we don't have that! A lot of Christians don't even have that these days!

My point is, try not to be hard on yourself when it goes. If it is something that's important to you, it will come back. It has always come back to me, even when I didnt call for it.

Try to find ways to make it sustainable. Find practices that take little to no resistance. Keep jewellery on all the time. Have a weekly offering. Dedicate something your already doing to your god.

This is mainly written for myself and I hope you can find some help in it to <3

Prayer beads I've made

Aphrodite, Hermes, Hypnos, and Morpheus

I can give details of the prayers I use for them if yall want ^ ^

(I just used what I had, I couldn't go out and buy supplies, so this is all just stuff I had in my bead boxes and old jewelery. So sorry if its not exactly the most fantastic fancy thing ever in amazing gemstones)

Aphrodite

I used a pendant that reminded me of Lady Aphrodite, pearls for title beads, and hearts in a seafoam green gemstone that I can't remember for epithet beads

Hermes

For Hermes, I used malachite for the beginning, obsidian for titles, and other random gems I had handy for epithets, and a pendant that opens to a lava rock that I can put oils in

Hypnos

For Hypnos, I used some random beads I liked for titles, some amethysts for epithets, and some flower pendants that looked kinda like poppies to me (this is my favorite of them all)

Morpheus

For Morpheus, I used black glass beads for epithets, and amethyst for spacers and titles
