Lol nice XD There's no shame in speaking only one language, but forcing English onto everyone else in the world is not only unfair but an erasure of other languages. I encourage people to post in their native tongues. It may feel like no one's listening, but to another person who speaks ONLY your native language and comes across your blog, your posts could mean the world. 🧡

Normalize writing posts in other languages and requiring English users to translate them via apps, skill, etc. Why do I say this? Because this is a common experience for non-native English speakers (who aren't fluent in English) online that many native English speakers don't often stop to consider. There is a forced necessity to only use English in the modern world that detracts from the beauty inherent in language diversity.

Mitos que estoy leyendo/Myths I'm currently reading

Para empezar a leer mitos no me quise conformar con uno de esos libros que solo explican una versión, sino que quise buscar uno que explicase las diferentes versiones o qué ahondara más en la creación de estos, su contexto histórico, todo eso.

Entonces fue cuando me encontré con Los mitos griegos I, de Robert Graves. Me lo compré para empezar y ver qué tal estaba y lo cierto es que me está gustando. Lo he comprado de la editorial Alianza, no sé si la traducción es la mejor pero a mí me está gustando bastante.

El libro presenta el mito y luego lo explica dividido en párrafos a los que les corresponde una letra (a, b, c,...). En caso de que ese párrafo necesite una aclaración/explicación de a qué se refiere (porqué el mito pudo haber sido creado, diferentes versiones de esa parte del mito, etc.) se explica en otros párrafos debajo de el que está siendo explicado, y a estos se le asignan unos números (1, 2, 3,...). Además cuenta con anotaciones en los márgenes que indican de donde se ha cogido la información.

Es un libro muy completito y me gusta bastante como está organizado. Y toda esta organización la explica en el principio, o sea que no hay pérdida. Todavía voy por el inicio pero ya tengo ganas de comprarme la segunda parte (solo hay dos, por cierto). Iba a comprarmelas juntas pero pensé que si no me gustaba iba a tener dos pedazos de pisapapeles sin sentido en mi estantería. Y he tenido suerte porque no ha sido tan caro, me costó 17,50€.

¡¡¡Si tenéis recomendaciones decidme!!! Si están en La Casa del Libro o en el Fnac mejor porque es lo que tengo cerca.

Sobre mitos también me leí el libro de mitos nórdicos de Neil Gaiman pero viendo como está el panorama me da mucha pena que sea el único libro sobre eso que tengo. Me valen recomendaciones de cualquier mitología, me encanta aprender sobre religiones antiguas y la historia del mundo antiguo. 🫶🫶

I decided to make this post in Spanish because I saw @khaire-traveler 's post! It's very grammatically correct so everyone can read it correctly. I thought about posting in Spanish before but thanks to that post I'm actually doing it, idk why I'm kind of embarrassed but anyway lol I hope you like the book recommendation!

Definitely! I hope to see more Middle Eastern languages as well. c: I really hope people feel encouraged to post more in their native tongues. 🧡

If you make a HelPol/pagan post in another language that you native speak, tag me, and I'll reblog it (under the circumstances that's it not, like, horrifically offensive or something crazy like that, just to clarify lol). We need to encourage more diversity of language and culture here. 🧡

This is a challenge, btw. Anyone who wants to can participate. I'm dedicating it to Hermes; I encourage others to also use this as a devotional act to a deity. c:

La nuit dernière, j'ai pensé à Erebos et Lethe, et ô combien ils étaient importants pour moi dans mon processus de guérison. J'ai un rituel auprès d'Hekate et Erebos qui consiste à demander à Hekate de prendre mes doutes, peurs, déceptions et chagrins et les emporter avec elle. Erebos, quant à lui, m'accueille dans son silence, dans son ombre. Il aspire tout, comme un trou noir, et je me sens toujours soulagé d'un poids après ce rituel. Mais hier, j'ai pensé à Lethe. À ce que l'Oubli apportait comme aide, lorsqu'on se sent submergé par des choses du passé il est plus dur d'avancer. Alors je me suis dis que, peut-être, si j'essayais d'oublier certaines choses, si j'essayais d'accepter qu'elles faisaient uniquement partie d'un passé révolu, alors guérir serait plus accessible, plus simple.

(For @khaire-traveler's challenge too)

Kumusta!! Meron challenge si @khaire-traveler na mag post tungkol sa helpol sa inang wika—at ito ang submisyon ko 👉👈 (wtf tulong ang tigas)

Pasenya na sa kapwang Pilipino ko kasi ang tagal na since kinailangan ko mag tagalog online, so magiging taglish yung post na to huhu🧍‍♀️🧍‍♀️

Ako si Rea, at ako ay Apollo at Nyx devotee. Mga isang taon na or so! Dati pa gustong gusto ko na talaga anything greek myth, full circle nalang siguro na andito na ko sa relihyon na to.

Pinalaki akong Katoliko, tapos pati schooling catholic school din—pero never nag resonate sakin, di siya tumama i guess.

Soo dati pa kong kuriyoso na tao, eventually napunta ako sa witchcraft, next deity work, at ngayon trying to connect sa fil deities (ang hirap😔)

Pero anyway! Sa actual helpol practice ko, medyo nahihirapan parin ako dahil sa sobrang catholic background ko, parang constant unlearning sa turuin nila.

Tas yung pinaka hirap para sakin is the communication tapos magiging matiyaga sa offerings, ang daming ganap sa buhay tapos meron pa ADHD. Bonggang combo.

Sa huli naman, mahal na mahal ko talaga yung deities ko, like nasa kanila na talaga yung puso ko frfr😔

At legit ang saya ko nung na realise ko na kahit dati pa andito na sila—like super artsy kid, fav diyosa was Nyx, into archery before even worshipping, etc etc.

Basta ang daming correlation!

Anyways! Yan na, ang dami ko na sinabi so ieend ko na dito, salamat sa pag basa—if Fil helpol ka pls pls reach out! Bihira kang makakita filo helpol kasi ang lalim nang bansa natin sa katoliko😔😔.

PS; wag mo nalang pansinin yung ng at nang, tapos yung rin at din🙏.

Paalam!

🧿 Welcome! Stay awhile. 🍵

BLOG IS UNDER CONSTRUCTION

Hello! My name is Stag (they/them), I'm a practicing Hellenic Polytheist, and I've been a tarot reader for five years now. This blog is solely dedicated to my Tumblr tarot readings, which I offer both privately and publicly! My main blog is @khaire-traveler where I post about Hellenic Polytheism and witchcraft! c:

I do paid readings, and sometimes I offer Event Readings - readings that coincide with Hellenic Polytheist festivals or are offered for a certain purpose. Event Readings will typically be offered for free but will always have limited spots available, so be sure to sign up quickly!

If you're interested in a reading, what I offer, prices, and rules will be provided below the cut. Feedback is always welcome but never required! You can view my storefront here on Ko-fi; all of my paid readings will occur through Ko-fi for ease.

If you'd like to leave a tip outside of my Ko-fi, you can do so at Venmo here and CashApp here!

⋆⭒˚.⋆⋆⭒˚.⋆⋆⭒˚.⋆⋆⭒˚.⋆⋆⭒˚.⋆⋆⭒˚.⋆⋆⭒˚.⋆⋆⭒˚.⋆⋆⭒˚.⋆⋆⭒˚.

What types of divination readings I offer overall:

Methods: Tarot cards, oracle cards, Greek alphabet runes, Homeric oracle, self-made runes, incense scrying (dedicated to a particular deity/entitiy), and dream interpretations

Types: Deity communication, spirit communication, ancestor communication, pet communication (nothing medical), deity/patron identification (Greek, Norse, or Goetic pantheons only), life guidance, spiritual guidance, emotional guidance, career love, past, present, and future

If a method or type isn't mentioned here, ask me about it!

Readings I do NOT offer:

Types: Past lives, astral realm-related, anything involving closed practices, anything sexual, medical advice (includes mental health), and spell success

Reminder that this list isn't unchanging, and I am allowed to add/take away from it as time passes.

Rules & Expectations:

I require a name/initials and preferred pronouns for every reading I do.

Payment comes BEFORE the reading does; I will not begin a transfer of the money until after I've delivered the reading. The initial payment should be at least half of the listed price with a guarantee to pay in full after the reading.

I have every right to decline a reading, for any reason. I will not take your money and run; declining happens PRIOR to the reading beginning.

Timing: All paid readings should be delivered within one week (seven days) of the request. Typically, readings are delivered within two days, but as a working college student, I allow myself some buffer time. If your reading hasn't been provided within a week, you will receive a full refund; this hasn't happened, but I like to provide the reassurance of a refund for clients.

Return Policy: I'm being paid to draw cards and provide a professional interpretation, based upon years of experience. Unfortunately, this means that if a reading doesn't resonate, refunds will not be provided.
