being a Hades devotee

It would be cool for this to be a super glamorous post but truly it is not going to be. This is just my experience having been devoted to Hades.

He is a very kind deity. I know people say he is harsh or strict, and for them maybe, but for me he is a gentle push

I heard someone once say working with Hades is a leap of faith, he will ask you to jump off a cliff just to see if you believe he will catch you. In my experience this is true, and every time he asked me to jump he caught me

TW: SH/SUICIDE

I have struggled with depression since I was a young child, and I do believe this is why Hades came into my space. And even though I have struggled, and relapsed, he has not judged or criticized me. He *has* however, helped me pick myself back up, and made things easier for me to get my life together

I have tried to end my life multiple times, and every time I truly did hear him tell me it was not my time to enter his realm, and this has helped me to stop those attempts and pushed me to try and recover

TW OVER

Hades is a nice presence to have. He feels very cool, as in temperature wise, which is always nice. Like a breath of air

He has helped me to become a better version of myself and is still helping me become the person I want to be

He doesnt demand constant offerings, which I greatly appericiate as I do struggle with daily pain and lack of energy and, just things like that

He has always been there when I needed his guidance and I am grateful to be a devotee of his

Yeah having to fight Zagreus would be funny as fuck but hear me out what if you have to do the mortifying ordeal of accepting a boon from him. The divine equivalent of having to ask your older sibling for their car

#yeah i know lore wise it doesnt work out #but it makes me laugh #hades #hades ii #zagreus #melinoe

a tip for beginners since it worried me when i first started: its important to note that while there are deities that are heavily connected to each other, you’re not obligated to work with both of them.

many people speak on specifically married deities (ex: hades & persephone, zeus & hera, odin & frigg). a lot of people refer to them as a “package deal” since they are heavily entwined. but it’s important for those just starting out, this does not mean you have to work with both.

as someone who works with hades, some of my offerings to him are related to persephone but i don’t worship her. in fact, when i had the opportunity to meet her and ask, she smiled and said, “you’re not mine”. we both mutually understood that we didn’t have a connection to one another but we have mutual respect and kindness for one another.

the “package deal” part is where i offer my coffee that is too sweet for hades so he said he’ll hand it to persephone instead. which is the cutest fucking thing btw omg

this is all just in an effort to say, please do not worry about having to work with two deities rather than one. don’t get overwhelmed.

#as a side note: persephone is so unbelievably gorgeous good god she’s beautiful #paganism #deity worship #deity work #norse paganism #hellenic pagan #hellenic polytheism #hades deity #persephone deity #hera deity #zeus deity #odin deity #frigg deity #baby witch

Okay but like hypnos was sooooo real for entering an eternal slumber, he saw the house of hades fall to cronos and everything go to shit and went “y’know what? wake me up when this is over” and that is EXACTLY what I would do in that situation

#now we don’t know for sure if that’s the reason #maybe because he doesn’t have to work anymore he just sleeps all the time and is completely capable of waking up #but where’s the fun in that?#hades 2 #hades game #hypnos hades

The best fictional men are the ones that allow themselves to be rescued by a pretty girl that could fight god and win and just. Stare at her. Blushing. In love. Because they're just like "wow. She is so strong and so beautiful I must be her wife."

And rather than being salty about it or trying to one-up her they just help her in her time of need and always try to humbly return the favour and be her ally. So rather than having the thought process of "ugh I can't believe a girl saved me :/" it's "wow I can't believe such a strong and pretty girl was willing to use her power to help me!" (The right line of thinking tbh)

Y'all have some sources about dream interpretation?

I'm the type of person who NEVER dream, it's very rare, I dreamed about Selene once, and almost never receive signs from dreams.

But today I dreamed about Lord Hades and was SO real that I woke up and was completely ??? I asked what it means (used tarot) but honestly I felt I had never learned tarot because I just couldn't understand 🤡 I asked if I could ask help for someone and received a strict NO (probably because the meaning it's very clear and related to me and other person won't get it. I don't know how to explain but like, its OBVIOUS but I just can't understand you know when you forgot a word and it's like almost there but you can't remember? Its like this now)

Anyhow, can be anything guys, books, site I don't know I really don't know anything about dreams and never cared to learn because I just don't dream lmao please help

Baby Trickster God Danny

It all started when the Amazons noticed God on their island. Not sure what God or Pantheon left him alone; he didn't seem to be like the rest of their gods.

But it was just as bad; he was a trickster god.

And after finally talking to him, he turned all their clothes pink. They learned he has no idea why he landed here. All Danny remember was Frostbite sending him with the Infimap away to learn new things.

As the priestesses and Hippolyta asked, Queen Hera said he wasn't from them.

Well, quasi, but Hades is too busy to take care of him, so they as Amazons are stuck as babysitters till Winter.

So the Amazons knew the best idea.

They sent the baby prankster to Diana. Let it be her problem.

So.

That was how Diana returned home and had her mother give her a child demigod into her arms and say. "Have fun."

And chaos became Diana's life, but she would not have it any other way.

A/N

Pariah Dark was a shard of Hades, so Danny defeated him.

Danny became part of Pariah shard, a lesser God part of Hades.

Or

better explained,

a mix of Halfa Demigod

Hi so I may or may not have forgotten to actually post these on here. Ofc the original concept goes to the brilliant @wolfythewitch, I've just leeched off of it because I wanted to see Elias in the Hermes suit. Also I wanted to see Jon and Martin doing a little dance. And the way I drew Tim as Orpheus is just.... so similar to how regular Orpheus looks. I am sorry. He has a boob window so it's more accurate to his character.

As I talked about in my ask to Wolfy (which I believe to be what drew quite a few people here? idk at this point), I have quite a few reasons for why I think Elias would fit the role of Hermes. Obviously he's a much more sinister Hermes, but it's a neat little concept to play around with. I think the little things Hermes says (like the line above) can be interestingly recontextualised when you view Hermes as an antagonistic force, rather than a guide/mentor. I thought it'd be interesting to see Elias as someone who helps Tim/Orpheus because he knows that it'll end in tragedy every time, and finds enjoyment in the helplessness that the audience faces knowing how it ends and being completely unable to change it. Get Beholdinged, babey!

Maybe I'll draw some Gertrude!Hermes....? Who knows - I'm currently in the middle of doing a shit ton of work at the moment, both for school and for personal reasons. I've got Mechanisms fanart happening, some concepts for myself as a Corruption avatar (nature!), ideas for animatics (which I admittedly don't have much experience in, but I will try to do it), and some other random ideas. Only time shall tell.

i saw someone talking about mundane devotion (i forgot their tumblr, sorry) but it's so true. devotional acts don't have to be something huge, and neither do offerings.

something i like to do for a devotion for hades is using a mint toothpaste, or washing my hair with a mint shampoo & conditioner. devotion doesn't need to look like doing a huge ritual, it can look like anything you do that reminds you of them! if you do something in their honor, that's what truly counts. this is especially good to remember if you're still in the broom closet but want to still worship or work with a deity.

New season's coming tomorrow, so Din's got an upgrade (shiny new weapon) and his kid in hand

(I've got new ideas to explore in this Hades style exploration besides the already existing interactions with Boba and Cobb - and look there is a pocket Luke already next to pocket Din in the background!)

#the mandalorian #din djarin #the mandalorian fanart #grogu #a clan of two #baby yoda #din and grogu #grogu djarin #my art #art style swap #Hades AU #so the plan for the year is to work in Luke (2)#and Bo-Katan and crew because during my rewatch I realized that I actually quite like her as a character #have ideas for the Armorer too #and that's it so far but if I ever get that far it would be deeply unfair to leave out my fave bunch of other characters as well right?#I'm plenty sure I'd lost the actual style in my shading somewhere but this was very good for putting me on my art track #in retrospect I so wish i'd added a pocket Cobb and Bobab to the previous ones.... oh well #look at Din's fancy glow stick tho! I made it shine real pretty #and it only took me about 4 lighting layers XD
