Hello! My name is Quinton (they/he). I'm a Timorese-Australian 23-year-old queer non-binary hellenic polytheist, kemeticist, witch, and angel worker of seven years.

This is my main blog which is very eclectic in content from my fleeting interests to my forever ones. I have some original content and a lot of reblogs.

I would describe my practice as ecstatic and mystical, as it uplifts direct and personal experiences with the divine, as well as academically-inclined with my commitment to self-led study and formal study programs that build my skills and knowledge!

I am an author, speaker, anthology curator, educator, event manager, and counsellor-in-training.

Keep Reading this post for my constellation of devotion, my areas of interest and research, my tags, and my links.

MY CONSTELLATION OF DEVOTION

Hermes is who this blog is named after and he was my first devotion as a hellenic polytheist. He was with me during my undergraduate comms degree, my coming of age, my introduction to my other deities, and accompanies me in my messenger work.

Hekate is my patron and soul mother! I have been her oathsworn devotee since February 2024 and was consecrated as a Hiereus of Hekate Propolos Enodia at Mt Nysa Mystery School in March 2026.

You can find my blog dedicated to her at @enodia-polymorphous where I post more about my priesthood journey, prayers, devotional reflections, and more!

Serapis is who I dedicate my journey as a Seer to. I consider him a god of learning, light, healing, oracles, the underworld, sovereignty, and fate. He is god who represents the bridge between ancient greek and egyptian religion.

I work with Archangels too! Mainly, Archangel Haniel, Archangel Raphael, Archangel Michael, Archangel Gabriel, and Archangel Uriel. This is the blog where I post about angel work.

Bast is a beloved goddess in my life. My dedicated blog to Bast is @the-ointment-jar where I post about my kemetic journey.

Other devotions of mine include Dionysus, Astraios, Okeanos, and some nymphai and daimones. I honour all the Theoi and Netjeru in my practice.

Read more on my Constellation of Devotion (coming soon), where I talk more in-depth about these connections and other deities + spirits I work with or worship.

A MESSAGE FOR HERMES

Great Hermes, giver of good things, patron of scholars and messengers, son of Zeus and Maia, grand and golden winged deity — I, as your humble devotee, thank you, always, for the sense of 'home' that this blog dedicated to you brings me. Praise to you, Lord Hermes!

On the Proverbs of the Alexandrians, ambiguously attributed to Plutarch (so, pseudo-Plutarch), presents the theology of Athena as an aspect of Persephone (Artemis, Athena, and Hekate). So in Alexandrian religion Athena was related to Hekate and Persephone (who is equated to Isis) in a mystical (hidden truth) tradition. The following is taken from Martiana (Sartrix) the original translator.

Pseudo-Plutarch:
The thirtieth (or ‘number thirteen’, triakás) is honored in (the realm) of Hades in a rather mystic fashion, because of Hekate, to whom also the trígla (‘red mullet’) is sacrificed. [Some text lost] because he says that this Hekate is Tritogenē (‘triple-born’ or ‘of three kinds’),* since the three – Athena, Artemis and Hekate – seem to be one. In mystic fashion, Persephoneia, the lady of those in the underworld (hypokhthoníōn despótis), is called Hekate, and hence the shrines (or ‘cult statues’, aphidrýmata) of Hekate are set up next to crossroads (trihódoi), and the rites honoring of the dead (tà nekýsia) are held on the thirtieth day of the month (triakás).
And the proverb is applied to those who busy themselves and search to learn hidden things.

(*Otherwise a title of Athena.)

“The thirtieths in (the realm) of Hades”

Chrysocephalus [medieval Eastern Roman writer]:
(The proverb is applied) to those who busy themselves and seek to learn hidden things; and the thirtieth (i.e., of the month?, triakás) is a mystery of Hekate.

And often [I have observed that] an elephant that pursues and threatens foretells illness. And one that seizes and manhandles someone signifies death for the observer but, when it does not seize them, it signifies that one, having come upon utmost danger, will be saved. For in fact they say that this animal is sacred to Pluto. (Artemidorus, Oneirocritica, 2.103ff)

Crazy. No one ever told me that elephants were Plouton's sacred animal. Now I have one more piece of "evidence" for my theory that Hades favors Dionysus because Elephants are famous as Dionysus' spoils of the war from India. Just imagine a charming young god arriving at your dark realm with myrtle and an elephant—it's hard not to favor him.

So I doodle as fast as I can and I never tried to draw an elephant before.😂

Hello there! Earlier this year, the full plot of the Cad Bane/Boba Fett Clone Wars arc from Season 6 was revealed.

I was able to document the plot in case it ever got removed. Now, after months of research and editing, I present to you the full 4 episodes of the Bounty Hunters arc from the unfinished Star Wars The Clone Wars season.
