I Told Lady Selene How I Wish I Could See Her More Often

Literally me and Athena

Reminder that Athena is also a goddess of weaving, and you can easily make a cardboard loom!

It's a pretty cool thing to offer her and an easy hobby to get into.

You can search on TikTok/YouTube/Pinterest for ideas on what to make.

(and ofc owls)

Me when I see something related to my deities in public

I wonder how the gods feel about offerings nowadays .

Like they used to get magnificent temples and statues done for them, and now:

They get offered paw patrol figures and Cheetos

I remember when I was just getting to know Helpol, I was nervous, like what if it's really strict? What if I have to pray 10 times a day and veil every day?

Then in reality the religion is so chill and calm,lol.

Have you had dreams about your deity(ies)?

For me, I have had a bunch! Just wondering what your experiences are.

Athena: My first deity dream! Basically I dreamt that I was outside a temple (not Greek, but I knew it was a temple somehow) and there was a lot of fog.

I was in the garden and holding a bracelet, which was the latest offering I had given her at the time, but her name was misspelled!

Suddenly I hear a voice saying, "She's glad her (?) is back (?)"

And I woke up. What does it mean? No idea.

Artemis: probably the most direct ones.

I dreamt that I was in a shop, and they had a bow and arrow section for some reason.

I started shooting with one of them and realized how great and nice it felt.

Then I woke up; I made her a cardboard bow and arrow because of it.

The second one, I was commissioning a lady to make me a doll of Artemis, but instead of saying her name, I kept saying "my goddess."

I was getting frustrated because I couldn't find a photo of Artemis to show her on my phone.

It was like she never existed—also, the lady was making the doll an e-girl for some reason.

I took it as Artemis wanting a doll that looked like her, since I had given Athena an offering like that.

Hermes: This one is short, but basically I was an old lady that had dedicated her life to Hermes, and I went out to my garden, and I had a bunch of statues of him.

And I woke up.

That's all; if they are just random stuff I dreamt of or actual signs, I have no idea.

Still interesting, though.

So I made a post about my favorite song about Lady Selene and how the lyrics resonate with me because I don't know when I'll see her or where she's hiding.

I fell asleep quite early and got sad because I thought I wouldn't be able to see her.

I was doomscrolling through my phone when I noticed a bright white light out of my window.

I jokingly thought, "What if it's the moon?" I went outside to get a better look (I was thinking maybe it was a light from the apartment that's right in front of mine).

And it was, in fact, Lady Selene!

I have literally never seen her at this hour, and the fact I was awake just at the right time!

For now I'll just enjoy the time I get to see her.

Thank you, Lady Selene, for letting me see your beauty!

Do any of you do handmade offerings?

I really only do handmade offerings for a lot of reasons, but mostly because I love crafting.

I weirdly see DIY offerings, so I was wondering if anybody else does it.

If so, what is your favorite handmade offering?

Me and my deities
