I just want to preface this by saying I know that there are issues surrounding some of these terms, but I also know some people use them

This poll is also mainly for those that worship the Greek pantheon but others are welcome to vote as well!

☀️ Subtle Apollo Worship 🏹

Singing/listening to your favorite songs; this applies to any music, though

Listening to music while studying

Playing any instrument

Dedicating a journal to writing poetry or stories

Reading poetry books; reading ancient poetry/stories (especially ancient Greek poetry/stories)

Dancing to any music of your choice

Setting reminders to take medication on time; taking your medication in general

Taking care of your body physically, such as brushing one's teeth or taking a shower

Taking a walk on a sunny day; basking in the warmth of the light

Keeping a pic of him in your wallet

Wearing jewelry that reminds you of him

Keeping imagery of swans, cranes, or ravens around (swans and cranes might be a safer bet if in an evangelical household; ravens may be seen as "too dark")

Having sun imagery around (although he is not the Greek god of the sun, many associate him with the sun these days; he is officially a god of light, however)

Getting a wolf or dolphin stuffed animal (sacred animals of his)

Anything to do with positive and healthy self-wellness

Learning archery

Learning to do divination outside of the obvious (the obvious being tarot, runes, and pendulums, for example; not obvious would be cartomancy, pyromancy, carromancy, shufflomancy, etc.)

Doing homework (yes, really)

Being kind to yourself when you're having a difficult time

Placing positive affirmations on somewhere you'd see them everyday, especially ones about things you're proud of

Checking in with yourself emotionally throughout the day; how are you feeling? What are some good things that have happened so far? What are some not so good things?

Learning about philosophy and taking note of your thoughts on the topic

Learning more about yourself (e.g. make a list of things you enjoy, try new hobbies, experiment with new outfits, etc.)

Expressing yourself through art of any kind

Having a candle that reminds you of him (no altar needed)

May add more later! For now, this is my list of discreet ways to worship Apollo. I hope it helps someone, and take care, y'all! 🧡

Lord Apollon’s section on my altar, I got some new things for him so I thought I’d share his updated section as I love seeing other peoples altars! (+Artemis&Demeter in the background)

Apollo worshippers make the prettiest altars

Apollon's hand on a lyre, the warm light of morn, the voice most placid. Apollon's name echoing through day, reaching in and out on streams and on the chirp of birds.

português:

A mão de Apolo na lira, luz cálida da manhã, a voz mais plácida. O nome de Apolo ecoando pelo dia, alcançando dentro e fora dos riachos e no chilreio dos pássaros.

One of my favorite little activities to do as a devotional is longboarding before sunset and listening to the playlist I made for Lord Apollon!!!

The sun always hits the path just right and it’s really relaxing and I feel so connected to nature :,))

Today I also bought a lavender coffee on my way through which is lovely :,)

Photos of my altar for Eros and Apollon !! I can’t have candles in my apartment so I just use battery ones instead !

On the wall is a poem I wrote for lord Eros, I hope to write one soon about Lord Apollon but I’ve been really struggling with it theme wise</3

It is not much but I am happy with how it’s coming along so far :,)

Whaaa I asked Apollo to help me keep calm on my first day of work, because I was really nervous. The next moment, the car I was in turned a corner, and in the sky I saw a RAINBOW. Keep in mind it is currently the dead of winter and I have NEVER seen a rainbow during this season before. The second I saw it all my anxiety just washed away. And I had an absolutely amazing day at work, with no worries at all.

I am about to start sketching an offering for him as thanks while I wait for my uncle to pick me up and bring me home. God, I am just so thankful that Apollo is such a comforting presence in my life 💛💛💛💛💛
