Guess who just offered to Lord Apollo for the first time???

Meeeeeee!!!!

Is it just me or is offering things to the gods one of the most, if not the most, calming experiences ever???

But like I said, I just offered to Lord Apollo for the first time and it honestly felt great to finally do.

I'm still lowkey scared shitless to offer stuff to the gods but I'm starting to loose that fear so yayy

WELL!! We're done with all the lists!! Now onto instructions on how to do certain things. Buckle up motherfuckers, I'm probably gonna swear alot (my apologies)!!

"How do I pray to Lady Athena?"

Start by adresing her, than state your prayer, and thank her for her time.

Example: "Oh, wise goddess Athena, *insert yo prayer here*, thank you, courageous goddess Athena, for your time."

*extremely sharp inhale*

PRAYERS ARE NOT REQUIRED TO BE FORMAL. IF FORMALITY IS NOT YOUR STYLE, THAN DON'T FUCKING BE FORMAL!!!!!!!

Non-formal Example because I'm sick and tired of people saying prayers required to be formal: "Lady Athena, *insert prayer here*, thank you for your time."

Prayers can be done in any language you want it to be in, there's no requirement.

Prayers do not need to be said aloud. Praying in your head can be helpful and necessary if you live in a household that is of a different religion.

"How do I offer something to Lady Athena?"

(List of things you can offer are at the bottom of the post)

Well, for a physical offering, wash your hands. That's basically a requirement.

Than, if you want to, veil your hair. This is not in any way or form a requirement and is purely optional.

After that, stand with your arms raised, and palms to the sky.

Than, speak your prayer aloud.

If it's a food offering, put it on a plate or bowl.

If it's a liquid offering, put it in a glass or container.

If it's an offering such as jewelry or another type of physical offering, set it on your altar.

Finally, sit in silence for a few minutes.

Speaking of altars, this brings us to our next subject.

"How do I create an altar to Lady Athena and what should I put on it?"

Altars are, first and foremost, optional. So are prayers and giving offerings.

Altars are completely personal and should feel right to YOU just as much as they should honor Lady Athena (or anyone other god).

Remember, this is the place you're going to be doing all your offerings and at-home prayers so you should like it, even though it's for Lady Athena (again, this goes for any other god aswell).

This is going to be split into two sections, one for the people who can worship freely and one for those who cannot due to living in a household that practices another religion (which I completely understand, I personally live in a christian household).

Out-Of-The-Closet Worshippers:

To make an altar to Lady Athena, find the space in which you want it to be (there's no size requirement).

Than, clean that space thoroughly because why the hell would you have a dirty altar.

Finally, put you're items on your altar (list of what you can put on your altar will be at the bottom of the post)

Closeted Worshippers:

First off, you can make a shoebox altar and hide the shoebox when you aren't using it.

Another option would be making an altoid tin altar and than putting it in your backpack or someone else where no one can find it.

Another option would be to put it in something that's out in the open but not obvious. Personally, my altar is in a jewelry box on my dresser which in by my bed. My mom just assumes it has jewelry in it and moves on.

Now that you have you're place of an altar figured out, clean that place because why the hell would you have a dirty altar.

Finally, put on your items it (list of things you can out on your altar will be at the bottom of the post).

Altars are also where you keep your offerings (if you make physical ones) so make sure you have space for those.

To all the Closeted Worshippers:

YOU. ARE. VALID. EVEN. TOUGH. YOU. CANT. FREELY. WORSHIP. LIKE. OTHERS. CAN.

Lady Athena understands your situation (so do the other gods)!!!!!

Also- DEVOTIONAL ACTS ARE LIFE SAVERS. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE FUCKING LISTEN TO ME WHEN I SAY THAT. (list of devotional acts will be at the bottom of the post)

To all Worshippers out there:

Don't ever let the idea of you being cringy stop you from worshipping.

Non of the gods give a flying, spinning, twisting, turning, soaring, fuck if what you do is considered cringe.

They just care that you're worshipping them and care about them.

Things to offer to Lady Athena:

Water

Olive oil

Wine

Honey

Frankincense

Gold jewelry

Devotional jewelry

Prayer beads

Jewelry you made for her

Devotional acts

Things to put on your altar to Lady Athena:

Imagery of her (this includes statues and art of her)

If you can't print anything our or buy a stature, write her name in Ancient Greek and set it on your altar

Owls (imagery or physical items that are in the shape of an owl)

Serpents (imagery and physical items)

Olive trees (imagery and such)

Spears, Helmets, the Aegis (imagery or physical items)

Crystals

Flowers

Your homework/schoolwork

Your degree (if you graduated)

The Odyssey (and I personally keep The Iliad on my altar to her aswell)

Your current reads

Your favorite books

Your offerings to her

Anything that reminds you of her

White flowers (especially White Lilies)

Devotional Acts to Lady Athena:

Making a Playlist for her (I made one on Spotify if you wanna listen to that one; Here it is)

Learning your rights

Learning self defense

Your homework/schoolwork

Reading (if you don't know what to read, try reading The Odyssey)

Studying

Learning about old wars that happened

Sewing (or similar things like cross stich and crocheting)

Researching topics of interest

Crafts in general

Drawing her

Writing her poems

Reading her myths

Taking care of your hair

If you want more devotional acts, you can always look some up on Google or Tumblr

(Make sure you let her know you're doing these things for her by saying either aloud or in your mind, "Lady Athena I devote *insert devotional act* to you")

Random but helpful thing:

Listen to me, buy a goddamn notebook and keep it on your altar (or if you don't have an altar, keep it somewhere safe).

You wanna plan out when you give offerings or say prayers? WRITE IT DOWN.

You saw something that reminded you of Lady Athena? WRITE IT DOWN TO TELL HER.

Something happened today that you really wanna tell Lady Athena? WRITE IT DOWN.

You wanna thank Lady Athena for something she did for you? WRITE THAT SHIT DOWN.

If you're a closeted worshipper, you can always refer to her as 'diary' so no one gets suspicious.

I promise you this is really helpful and makes you feel so much better!!

Here it is

That's everything!!!

I hope this helps you on your journey of worshipping Lady Athena! Lady Athena loves you!!!!!!! Blessed be!!

I'm not a "I wanna move out of my house because I hate my parents" kinda girl.

I'm more of a "I wanna move out of my house so I can have a big ass altar to Lady Athena" kinda girl.
