Short prayers to Aphrodite

Short prayers to Holy Aphrodite for confidence, self-love, finding a partner, protection and more.

Confidence: 

Aphrodite, Goddess who holds herself high,

Teach me to hold myself up as You do,

Teach me to be comfortable in who I am,

Teach me, oh Lovely Aphrodite,

I praise you.

Self-Love:

Sea-foam goddess, of glittering gold.

Show me how to see myself the way You do,

Golden Goddess, show me how to look at myself and smile,

Show me, oh Goddess, as I have shown my praise.

Finding a Partner:

Gracious Goddess, I pray to you,

Help me to find someone to love and cherish,

Help me, Gracious Aphrodite, to find a flame,

Who my love for burns as bright as my love for You.

Protection: 

Lady Aphrodite, who sits in High Olympus, 

Watch over me [today, this week, etc.]

Protect me from those who wish me harm,

and keep me safe from hate. 

Praise:

Amber-eyed One, born of sea-foam and gold, 

I praise you on this day, 

You who protects and loves me, even when I cannot, 

You who brings light and golden love into the world, 

I praise you.

To Go With an Offering:

Aphrodite, 

As I give you this gift, may its energy and presence 

Fill you and cause you joy, as your presence in my life has caused me.

Morning:

Aphrodite, Great Golden Goddess, 

Please bless me on this day, 

and allow me to spread Your Love throughout the world and my community.

Stay with me on this day, oh Golden One, 

and I will sing your praise.

Night:

Aphrodite, borne of love and war, 

thank you for your blessings on this day,

As i sleep tonight, I am grateful.

Hey I'm a bit confused- I've researched for hours yet I'm still confused on prayer for deities. I want to pray to aphrodite, but I don't know how? Is it just giving her offerings? I'm very confused.

Hi darling, thanks for the ask!

Saying a pray is not giving an offering, although praying can be used as an offering or to accompany an offering.

Praying, to me anyway, is basically just a way of expressing your love for a deity or of asking them for something. It doesn't not have to have an offering with it, and can be said out loud or in your head. Really, there is no right way to do it.

Hope this helps,

Bless, Never

Amber-eyed one,

Of beauty and grace

Whose love warps our minds in beautiful and painful ways,

I raise my hands to the sky, 

I shout my praise, 

You who has risen from sea foam 

Great, Golden Goddess 

May my love no know bounds, 

As I sing your praises to the Heavens!
