Dedicating exercise to Lord Ares is so wonderful but my muscles are just aching. I’m excited to see results though. I hope to be getting some good muscle from working out like this

Divination and Spell Commissions!
Hello everyone! I wanted to finally open up for divination and spell commissions. This is something I have been wanting to do for a few years now, and am finally settled enough for. I hope to make it a small business one day! I am also working towards saving up money to move out of state, as I am trying to escape a bad situation.
As for experience, I have been doing tarot and been a practicing witch for about 6 or 7 years, and pendulum work for about 4 or 5. I have been doing Deity work and worship for about 5 years as well.
- A disclaimer for Deity identification, messages, workings, etc. I will only be helping with Hellenic Gods. They are what I am familiar and comfortable with! I am also not an end all be all for the Gods, and I am not claiming to be Their word. I am just doing readings to the best of my ability. -
Now, with all that out of the way!
Tarot Readings
* One Card Reading- $3, any additional pulled cards + $1
* Past, Present, Future (three cards) - $5, any additional pulled cards + $1
* Horseshoe Spread (7 Cards)- $7
* Deity Message (Starting at 1 card)- $8, additional pulled cards + $1
* Reading of your choice! Prices vary depending on complexity and card amount.
Pendulum Readings
* ‘Yes or No?’ - $2 per question
* ‘Am I hexed?’ - $5 + $1 per additional question
* Specific questions- $5 + $1 per additional question
Deity Identification (Using Pendulum and Tarot)
* One Deity - $7
* Two Deities - $10
* Three or more Deities - $15
Spell Workings
* Protection Spell - $10
* Self Love Spell - $12
* Hex Breaking - $12
* Money Spell - $15
* Request a spell! Prices vary depending on ability/ingredients.
Baneful Workings
* Banishing Spell - $12
* Cord-Cutting Spell - $15
* Hex - $15 (May get more expensive depending on how complex. Dm!)
* Request a working! Prices depend on ability/ingredients/severity
This list will likely be updated as I continue working forward. If you are interested, send me a dm here or on my instagram! A lot of these things will need to be discussed a little more in depth and a price settled on. I will be taking payment before services are given out.
Evidence of workings will be sent, and readings will be conducted over dms as I am not comfortable with my face and voice being presented over social media. Keep in mind that for some workings that you/a third party’s name and birthday may need to be provided!
I will try to have a bit of an Instagram presence, and may ask you if I can post a picture of a working there!
Readings and workings will be done within a few days to a week’s time, as I have a job that takes up 3-4 days of my week.
If you need something done quick, or it is simple, just let me know and I will try to make arrangements! Majority of one card readings should be done within 24-48 hours, if not same day (occasionally immediately!)
I will be doing transactions through Venmo for now. Thank you so much!

Don't forget about the Palestinians.
Don't forget about them now.
Don't forget about them tomorrow.
Don't forget about them in a week from now.
Don't forget about them in a month.
Don't forget them next year.
Don't forget them in 5 years.
When the history books start to update, don't let them put lies in there.
When documentaries come out, boycott the ones who call this a victory for Israel.
When books release talking about soldier's personal experiences with Palestine, remember the victims. Remember the truth.
Don't forget about what we've seen.
Don't forget about what we've heard.
Don't let them tell lies about Palestine.
Don't forget about the Palestinians when the world tries to make this go away.

Small Devotions
I do small things almost every day to honor the Gods. I wanted to compile a little list below, to inspire others and show them that there’s plenty of ways to honor Them throughout daily life! (I also just love to talk about the things I do for Them 🖤)
• Light a candle for Lady Hestia while cleaning my kitchen and cooking, then offering Her some of what I cook.
• Offering taking my medicine to Lord Apollon and Lord Asklepios
• Offering certain things that I study to certain Gods, and lighting Their candles as I do it
• I make sure I go around roadkill that vultures are eating to honor Lord Ares
• I plan on dedicating my exercise/muscle building to Lord Ares
• Thinking of and honoring Lady Persephone and Lady Demeter as I tend to my family and I’s garden
• Feel the Gods’ presence as I take walks/go to parks
All of these small things make me feel so connected to Them throughout day to day life. The Gods are in everything 🖤

30 days of devotion; day 3. symbols;
Αρης; 'The god's other attributes included a shield, a spear, and sometimes a sheathed sword. Although his shield was often decorated with an emblem of some sort, ancient artists simply used a generic one drawn from their standard repertoire rather than something specific to the god.'
some of my fave excerpts;
Homer, Iliad 5. 352 ff (trans. Lattimore) (Greek epic C8th B.C.) :
"There to the left of the fighting, she found Ares the violent, sitting, his spear leaned into the mist, and his swift horses." (I'm in love with the imagery here....)
Hesiod, The Shield of Heracles 191 ff (trans. Evelyn-White) (Greek epic C8th or 7th B.C.) : "And [depicted] on the shield [of Herakles] stood . . . grim Ares . . . He held a spear in his hands and was urging on the footmen: he was red with blood as if he were slaying living men."
Hesiod, The Shield of Heracles 70 ff : "All the grove and the altar of Apollon Pagasaios were lighted up by the dread god, Ares, himself and his armour, and the shining from his eyes was like fire."
Hesiod, The Shield of Heracles 450 ff : "Drawing his sharp sword he [Ares] swept in against Herakles the strong-hearted, but as he came in Amphitryon's son [Herakles], insatiate of the terrible battle-cry, stabbed with full force into the thigh left bare under the elaborate shield, and twisting with the spear tore a great hole in the flesh, and beat him to the ground between."
Homeric Hymn 8 to Ares (trans. Evelyn-White) (Greek epic B.C.) :"Ares, exceeding in strength, chariot-rider, golden-helmed, doughty in heart, shield-bearer, Saviour of cities, harnessed in bronze, strong of arm, unwearying, mighty with the spear."

Hellenic Phrases - Basic greek for worship
I like approaching the Gods utilizing the greek language for some expressions. Although the gods will understand you regardless of the language you use, using Modern Greek feels really good, specially if you’re a recon like me.
Before we start, just give a quick look on this art of Mnemosyne, Goddess of Memory and Inventress of Words, Mother of the Muses.
Let’s begin this list with some salutations and farewells, shall we?
Χαιρε! χαιρετe! - (trans.: Khaire!, pl.: Khairete! khAY-re, khAY-re-teh) Hail! Hello [to you]!
The standard greeting, can be used to address the Theoi (Gods) and mortals alike.
Ειρηνη! - (trans.: Eirene!, Ee-REE-nee) Peace! A farewell phrase, the name of the goddess of peace.
Èρρωσο! Ερρωσθε! - (trans.: Érroso! pl.: Érrosthe!, EH-rôs-so; EH-rôs-teh) “Be strong” a farewell to mortals only, the Theoi are plenty strong already.
Ουλε! Ουλετε! - (trans.: Oule!, pl.: Oulete!; OO-leh; OO-leh-teh) Literally farewell.
Now some useful ways to call upon the Gods.
Ω Θεέ / Ω Θεοί - (O Theé, “O God” [masc]; O Theoi!, “O Gods!” [plural])
Ω Θεά / Ω Θεάί - (O Thea, “O Goddess” [fem]; O Theai! “O Goddesses!” [plural, fem])
Κλυθι μου! - (Klûthi mou!, “Hear me!”; trans.: Klee-THEE MOH!)
It’s a very common phrase throughout the Orphic Hymns and can be used to call upon the Gods before an hymn or even when you’re just praying.
Example: O Phoibos Apollon, klûthi mou! - “O Bright Apollon, hear me!”.
Regarding purification by usage of khernips (lustral water)
Χερνιπτομαι! ( trans.: Kherniptomai! - Zer-NIP-to-meh - “May this water become lustral”)
A phrase used to turn water into lustral water, for cleansing the “pollution”/”miasma” by dropping flaming incense and/or herbs in water to make it lustral. The fire is generally consecrated to Hestia, goddess of the hearth, with an hymn before.
It’s just one of many ways of cleansing yourself and the space before a ritual, but if you can’t do it, taking a bath, washing your hands and stuff like that might be enough!
Εκας εκας εστε βεβηλοι - (trans.: Hekas hekas este bebeloi!; eh-KAS, eh-KAS, es-TEH be-BÊH-lee) “Begone, begone ye profane!”
This one can be used while you sprinkle lustral water to purify a space to ward off against bad spirits (kakoidaimones) and energy.
Ω Θεοι Γνωισθε Αποτροποι Κακων - (trans.: O Theoi gnoisthe apotropoi kákon!; O Theoi gnois-THEH a-po-TRO-peh KAH-kon) “O Gods, protect us from evil!”
This phrase from Eurippides calls the Gods forth for their protection.
Oh, well. those are just some of the phrases me and my group use! We’re mostly related to the RHB - Brazilian Hellenic Reconstructionism and use it as a main source.
I hope you guys find this post useful, and may the Gods ever bless you!
Errosthe! (Be strong!)

Hellenic Polytheism Resources
Hellenic polytheism, at the most basic, is the modern worship of the ancient Greek pantheon. Hellenic polytheists may also honor the nymphs and other nature spirits, and personified virtues, and practice some form of ancestor cult, sometimes combined with hero cult.
Hellenic polytheism is also known as Hellenic paganism, Hellenic Polytheistic Reconstructionism, Hellenismos, Hellenic paganism, Olympianism and Dodecatheism or Dodekatheism.
It’s occasionally called Hellenistic Polytheism, though it should be noted that the term “Hellenistic” refers specifically to the time period from the death of Alexander the Great to the defeat of Cleopatra and Mark Antony by Octavian in 31 BCE.
The term “Hellenism” was used to describe traditional Greco-Roman religion by the Emperor Julian and is still being used by modern reconstructionist and revivalist groups, especially those in Greece. There has been controversy over the use of “Hellenism” over the past two years, though Hellenic polytheist groups in Greece have issued statements permitting non-Greeks who worship the Theoi to use the term.
“Hellene” is a word used to describe Greeks and people of Greek heritage; it is therefor incorrect to use it as a synonym for practitioners of Hellenic polytheism.

I finally sat down and started my worship with Lord Ares today. It was incredibly emotional, and very much needed.
His presence presents to me as the turmoil I have within myself. It burns red in my ribcage and snakes up my spine. I have been at war with myself and those who took advantage of me and harmed me for years. He is my refuge. He is my protector.

It's absolutely insane and almost a little unbelievable that since I started working with goddesses, leaving offerings, lighting candles, doing things in devotion of their names, that things work out for me a lot. At work, at home, when I'm out and about in my daily life. I just have to thank the goddesses for their blessings and luck that they have given to me. I hope in return I can continue to be a good devotee and bring honor on their name <33

I’m thinking of making a small business around witchcraft and my religious experiences. Things like selling tarot readings, making prayer beads, selling spell jars or spell kits. Thoughts?
