Hail Shining Apollo,

Blessed is your touch upon my spirit. You who knows me and has been with me, who walks the long road with me, who gifts me with your love.

Guide me back to you. Guide me to feel close to you again. I'm asking you, Lord, with reverence and love in my heart.

The only thing that I'm a hater of when it comes to domains is people taking away a deity's domain just because another also has it. Stripping away the essence and influence of the deity just because you want to box and organize deities in such a way that only one can be one concept is just goofy at best and incredibly upsetting at worst. Helios and Apollon can both be the sun, it's okay, breathe. Selene, Artemis, Hekate, and Melinoe can all be the moon, it's okay, breathe.

Wawawawa, drew Apollon instead of doing my school work (It do be like that dkjasfds.) Also, drawing Apollon in a somewhat more modern time is fun! :^)))) (Idk, man... Idk)

I am SO incredibly pleased with the prayer beads that I made for Apollo, and he really likes them too ☀️

To Lord Hermes of speech, communication, eloquence, wit, and diplomacy I wholeheartedly thank you for every moment you help me hold my tongue when foolishness, anger, and impulse flare. To you, my praise is given to also speak my mind and stand up and fight for myself or for others when necessary and important to do so. For above all else you know the time and place to use words better than any other soul and when to gift others with the same prowess.

How to Make Khernips/Lustral Water

Khernips, or Lustral Water, is a mixture used in Hellenic Polytheism to ritually wash away miasma. It is not hard to make, and is an incredibly rewarding addition to any ritual.

To make it you’ll need a few things on hand:

Fresh water (I use tap water, but if you can manage spring water is even better)

Sea Water (if you don’t have this, you can use a sea salt and water mixture)

Dried herbs (I sometimes don’t have access to herbs, and just use a lit match)

A lighter/match

Bowl

Towel

So to make it, you mix together your fresh water and sea water, and then you light your herbs and drop them in. Some people use incense opposed to matches or herbs as well.

“When throwing in the lit item, one can utter ‘Xerniptosai’ (pronounced ‘zer-nip-TOS-aye-ee’) which translates as ‘Be purified’.“ Source: Baring the Aegis

After you’ve finished preparing it, you can choose to ask one of the Theoi to bless it, especially a water/sea related Theos. Then you wash your hands in face with it, and dry off.
