something i love about hellenism is that mortals aren’t ineherently awful, dirty, sinners.
we’re just people.

Taking up a new instrument and trying to learn a new language in my free time as a senior in high school is so Hermes devotee core I fear.
Me when I can play hot cross buns on a saxophone now and say cat and tomato in Ukrainian. (My friends are teaching me sax and my boyfriend is teaching me Ukrainian so dw I’m not alone).

Yappathon EP 1: “As above so Below”
Today after seeing a dumb homophobic image of a low opacity Baphomet on a rainbow, I looked into the whole “as above so below” hand motion. After looking around and as someone who loves Hermeticism and worships Hermes, I decided to yap about how this hand motion is far from demonic views or Satanism to my trusty Tumblr blog.
Disclaimer: if you’re a Satanist coming across this props to you and no hate. Additionally if anyone has any facts or wants to correct me bc I addressed something wrong lmk.
The pose and the goat:

So we all know Baphomet’s iconic pose and based off things like his looks and being allegedly worshipped by the Knights Templar (which I don’t know much abt tbh), he has or represents connections to Satanism (as far as I’m aware).
However, my main focus is on his hand motion, representing the phrase “as above so below” which originated, to my knowledge, from a Hermetic text called the Emerald Tablet (more on that later). It’s known that Levi, the sculptor of the iconic Baphomet pose, was both an occultist and member of Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, a secret society for Hermeticism practices in Great Britain in the 19th century. So he obviously is aware of this phrase and its origin, meaning, and included it because it aligns with many religious views.
Actual meaning:
Now to talk about its actual meaning. It’s similar to the Christian “on earth as it is in Heaven” quote, representing this link between the spiritual and physical suggesting the Divine live in tandem with our world. The meaning can be expanded to other Hermetic principles but the rough understanding is that it simply implies a link between us and the Divine.
As I mentioned, it originates from a Hermetic text. It obviously has connections to Hermeticism and nothing about it is genetically Satanic.

Looking at the Magician tarot card, yes the one with the most connections and implications to Lord Hermes, he is hitting the iconic pose. This description of the card even shows how it is simply a connection between our world and the Divine.
Modern culture:
There’s also a movie I’d love to watch called As Above so Below and has to do with the Philosophers stone, an Alchemy thing, which in part is a Hermetic thing so I think that’s great for clearing up the meaning of this phrase.
Ghost the band and even uncannon yet official Welcome Home art depict this pose and use it to imply Satanic connotations. Not to hate on those medias but in that way it is arguable that yes technically the pose is Satanic because of popular belief and if some use it to convey Satanism, that indirectly connects it although it technically as you now hopefully know, has a much different meaning and background.

Thank you for reading my rant and yapping sesh, don’t expect future episodes unless I have a topic I feel like info dumping about but I thought it was fitting to share here as much as I know and I found this very interesting hope you do too!

Being pagan is making a little spell bag the day before an AP exam 🙏
Sigils, runes, a jar of moon water and various crystals that support wisdom, focus, and dispelling negative energy all because I’m scared I won’t remember what some old white guy did in 1800s America (Apush moment)
Good luck AP students! 🫵‼️🫶

After a few signs and a good tarot reading I’ve decided to give working with Hecate a try yipee!!
Now it feels like she’s a protective aunt who wants to teach me and watch me grow and also have fun while Hermes is a goof ball older brother that sometimes encourages not so good decisions so I “live a little”
I had been hoping for some feminine energy to guide me so I’m happy Hecate heard my call :) also this opens the door for me to tap into a little witchcraft and spell casting 🗣️🗣️

Maybe this is just a me issue but can we talk abt when you see a Greek or Roman or what have you statue/figure in a store and your just kinda like:
Wow that’s beautiful! 😊 …Who is it
Bc I am always on the lookout for miniature statues I can use for devotional purposes if only I could figure out if it’s an Olympian or Greek hero or random angel meant to go outside by your daffodils.
Yall will be posting beautiful statues of Greek deities and trust me every time I come across those posts I am immediately in the caption like alr who dis ☝️🤨
