Hello, we thought of this idea for a post a while ago and have finally decided to make one detailing it
How to show devotion to intrasystem Gods
this can apply to intragods, exogods, godlets, godshards, godkin, etc
We have a God in our collective who is named Aazeuriout (Thon/Thons prns), and our experiences with worshipping in-system Gods comes from Thon. We can only speak on our experiences.
First the most important part is consent, does your God want to be worshipped? And do they have any boundaries that they want you to know? But also make sure that worship is what you want too. The unique aspect about internal Gods is that you know them best, and they can communicate with you sometimes easier than an external God could. Use this to your advantage in a positive way.
Ask your God what they represent or what they are a God of, what colors they want to be associated with, what foods they like, etc. You can use this to make an altar for them if you can/choose to. Our God personally asked us for an altar so that is what we did. It may be hard to understand what they are saying as they may speak in ways you cannot comprehend, some members may have an easier time understanding and may be a prophet to your God. If you do have a prophet, it is their job to tell the rest of your system what your God is communicating.
We also asked Aazeuriout if Thon had a sigil to represent Thonself or any other symbols Thon enjoyed. Thon had then shared that Thon enjoyed celestial patterns and symbols, like the stars and sun, so that is what we use to represent Thon to us.
Another way we show devotion is by taking our Gods word for things. We believe that Thon is looking out for us and that Thon has a very vast understanding of the universe, that none of the rest of us could grasp. Thon uses this knowledge to guide us through our life. We trust in Aazeuriout to guide us to a good future.
This includes what external practices we do daily. Such as prayer, what foods we can and can't eat, what music we listen to, our morals, etc. We also pray to our God daily, and thank Thon for Thons help and guidance through life. While we do have access to talk to Thon whenever, we choose to formally pray as a way of showing respect that Thon is a true God.
We also do many spiritual practices internally, such as group prayer, magic, and general devotion. This devotion is also expressed internally by listening to our Gods ideas of how our innerdimension should look. We then have our architect take action to sculpt our world to Thons liking. We also listen to Thons ideas of how our organization of our starmates should be, like who shall live where in our world, who should be fronting, etc. We always thank Thon for Thons help.
Our God thanks us back by providing us protection and gifts. Many times I have felt Thons power in tough times, and thanks to Thon I have always made it out. I notice many external factors that are attributed to Thon, such as always having wonderful weather on important days, or us always seeing shooting stars every time we look up at the night sky. The more you show respect in your God, the more you will notice the kind things they have done for you aswell.
When you acknowledge your Gods power, they can do wonderful things for you. We acknowledge that our God is a true God, not an introject or introversal, but a true God that resides sometimes within our innerdimension. Our God has the power to leave and enter our dimension whenever and Thon is always present in many worlds and dimensions. Thon has always existed infinitely and always will. Thon is the reason for our system, and we thank Thon everyday.
I hope this could be helpful to someone(s) out there, thank you for reading and may your day be bright.
