“Hypnos, shrouded in the gloom of his brother Thanatos and dripping with Stygian dew, enfolds the doomed city, and from his relentless horn pours heavy drowse, and marks out the men” - Statius, Thebiad.

Devotional art be upon ye, I may be a Hypnos devotee but he and his twin are a package deal and I don’t have the heart to seperate them. I appreciate Thanatos as well, even if I’m focused on his brother.

[to-hypnos-we-dream]

Hypnos's energy goes through His devotees.

When your friend sleeps upon your shoulder, that is Hypnos alongside you.

When your partner dreams of you, that is Hypnos with you.

When you wake up to your beloved pet laying on you or near you, that is Hypnos with you.

Hypnos is sleep, Hypnos is dreams

He is personification of concepts, divinity of these things, he is

You face Hypnos in the eyes when you close them with rest on your mind

lord hypnos prayer

Divine Hypnos, god who knows no pain,

Hypnos, stranger to anguish,

come in favor to us, come happy,

and giving happiness, great King!

Keep before his eyes such light as is spread before them now.

Come to him, I pray you, come with power to heal!

- Sophocles, Philoctetes (409 B.C.)

Daily hypnos offering of napping in class

[a-child-of-chaos906]

Hypnos-Somnus is the silence and calmness of the night. He is the warmth of a blanket and coldness of other side of the pillow. He is tiredness, that comes at the end of the day and energy or comfortable laziness in the morning. He is pastel soothing blue, purple and white. He is slow and peaceful lo-fi. He is the blackness of the sleep or vivid visions of the dreams. He is red fields of blood on steppes or single little drops here and there on grass in form of wild poppies. He is this little crust of poppy's seeds in the bun filled with them. He is the certainty of the next day. He is the little white feathers that appear in every part of the city. He is the warmth of sweaters and pajamas. He is the smell of fresh cleaned sheets and much, much more.

He is so many than just sleep. And once you see it, it's hard to stop again. I hope that this year will be calmer, so I could give Him what He truly deserves.

But now, thank you, kind Hypnos-Somnus, that in my crisis days, where I couldn't get enough sleep, you helped me get some rest. That my bed was a safe space, that my pillows were soft. Thank you, that I didn't have any nightmares or stress dreams for a long time.

I thank you and honour you, Hypnos-Somnus, gentle God of sleep!
