Bacchus in Aries

You're an impulsive person who loves to live in the moment, often changing plans or emotions with ease. You enjoy finding instant sources of fun, and your best experiences come from spontaneous decisions, especially when they serve your own desires. You feel most free when you have control over your own life, knowing that you can change its course at any moment. Your tendencies include organizing small, random social events like hangouts, brunches, or mini-parties. You're also inclined to initiate new adventures on the spot, planning hikes, parties, or deciding to attend the first concert you find. Spontaneity is your strong suit. One moment you're in bed, and the next you're getting ready to hit a party. You're the kind of person who says yes to any proposal, whether it's risky or not, because you love living with the knowledge that when you're older, you'll have wild stories and memories, knowing that you truly lived life to the fullest.

Bacchus in Taurus

As with any planet in Taurus, you're drawn to the pleasures of luxury. You find joy in material things like clothes, books, or food, which can greatly influence your mood and help you feel at peace with yourself. These indulgences also make you stand out. Shopping is something you particularly enjoy, and at times, it can become an obsession. You may lose control over your spending, which can lead to financial problems. You take great pleasure not only in spoiling yourself but also in spoiling others. You're always ready to give gifts, and it brings you joy when you can surprise others with thoughtful presents. Likewise, you find immense happiness when you receive gifts that are meaningful to you, especially from loved ones.

Bacchus in Gemini

You're someone who communicates effortlessly and frequently. You love to make yourself heard and help those around you feel comfortable in your presence, especially introverted people who often relax and open up around you. There's a natural charm you possess without even trying, and you're like a magnet for others. You find great pleasure in joining conversations and being the voice that sets the tone, sharing your opinions and speaking up for those who are more shy. You're also incredibly intelligent and addicted to constantly learning something new, even the smallest piece of information from anywhere, whether it's from podcasts, books, or your obsession with YouTube. The freedom to speak your mind openly and uncensored gives you immense joy, and you're often eager to engage in discussions about various topics, including politics, because you love to be right. However, your involvement in so many conversations can sometimes lead to conflict and disagreements.

Bacchus in Cancer

Here comes the family-oriented one. You deeply love your family and your closest friends. You're always striving to create harmony within your circles, often acting as the voice of reason that mends conflicts and soothes tensions. You're always there to offer love and support, bringing peace to those around you. When your loved ones face problems, it affects you greatly, and you feel at your best when you can help them. You gain immense confidence and strength when you use your nurturing abilities to care for others. However, this can sometimes become an obsession, and it can take a toll on your mental well-being when your loved ones are in distress or when conflicts arise. You thrive on the well-being of your family, and when there is a rupture or discord, your need for peace and resolution can make you easily frustrated when obstacles prevent you from restoring harmony. After all, peace is what you truly long for.

Bacchus in Leo

Your energy is contagious, and it makes you shine. You love creating situations where you easily stand out, drawing people in with your charisma, humor, or what you say. From your clothing to your attitude, you enjoy having all eyes on you and crave compliments. You take pleasure in being admired and can even serve as an example for those around you, inspiring others who need confidence and the freedom to express themselves authentically. While it's your guilty pleasure to feel like the world is at your feet, this desire for attention can sometimes turn into an obsession, where you lose sight of your true self. What you project outward may become more about pleasing others or seeking validation than expressing who you really are. This can lead to excessive pride, vanity, or a constant need for attention and praise.

Bacchus in Virgo

When Bacchus is in Virgo, it means you have a passion for perfecting everything around you and being the best at whatever you do. You thrive on having an organized life where everything is perfectly coordinated. Whether it’s time management, work, your routine, your home, or any other aspect of your life, it's crucial for you that everything aligns with your expectations. You are always striving to become the best version of yourself and are passionate about activities that can improve your life. You also enjoy planning, both for yourself and others, and love being the person who contributes the most to improving work or school projects. However, you may be too hard on those who don’t share your disciplined lifestyle. While perfectionism makes you feel good, it can negatively affect your mood if things don’t go as planned. You can also be very tough on yourself when your performance isn’t at its peak, which can lead to discouragement and self-criticism.

Bacchus in Libra

You practically breathe aesthetics. You have a vibe that everyone admires, and everything you create (whether it’s fashion, hairstyles, makeup, or projects) comes out beautifully and pleasing to the eye. You're a creative soul who loves literature, theater, art, and music. You adore making vision boards that manifest the pleasures of life you dream about. Living in harmony with others is important to you, and you excel at building strong friendships. When it comes to love, you can become dependent on your relationships and are a hopeless romantic, always searching for the ideal love you’ve dreamed of. However, you're often disappointed when reality doesn’t match the idealized version in your mind, and you sometimes live more in your fantasies than in the real world. You like to maintain a positive, light-hearted aura, but you often struggle with how to handle conflict or stand up for yourself, leading you to retreat inward and avoid confrontation.

Bacchus in Scorpio

You are someone who loves to live life to the fullest, especially when it comes to parties, drinking, drugs, and sex. You're a free-spirited, open-minded individual who’s always ready to try new things. You prefer living life at night and are a natural night owl. You find comfort and peace in darkness, which is when you are most productive. You like to project an image of being in control and don’t like to show fear or anxiety in public. You have a strong sex drive, and masturbation helps you explore yourself. However, there are times when it can become a dependency, potentially affecting your sexual life. You're prone to obsessions, which can take over your life for months at a time. You also love deeply, with your whole heart, but can become jealous if you don’t receive enough attention. Additionally, you might feel envious of others’ lives or experiences, especially those that you haven’t had the chance to live yourself.

Bacchus in Sagittarius

You're so wild and amazing. You love adventure and always have new ideas for things to do or places to explore. Traveling brings you immense joy, even if it's just a short trip—it fills your soul and helps you feel at peace with yourself. While you enjoy socializing, your social battery drains quickly, and you need time alone to recharge. You can get easily disappointed when those around you don’t share the same excitement or vibe as you when trying something new or visiting a new place, which is why you often prefer to embark on new adventures solo. You love learning new things and are always open to reading, watching a film, or trying an activity just to check it off your list. You’re especially passionate about learning on your own terms, enjoying the freedom to choose what you study, something you disliked as a child when it was forced upon you. Most of the time, you're an optimistic and positive person, but one negative thought or piece of bad news can throw off your mood entirely. Your love for adventure and travel is so strong that you often struggle to feel content in one place or with one person, which can sometimes affect your social life.

Bacchus in Capricorn

Bacchus in Capricorn defines a period of diplomacy and seriousness, where you find joy in achieving professional success in everything you set your mind to. You're a hardworking individual who enjoys always having something to do, especially when it boosts your self-esteem. You feel at your best when you're independent, and simply attaining the reputation you've dreamed of gives you a sense of fulfillment. You enjoy spoiling yourself when you accomplish tasks, which can make you competitive with yourself. However, sometimes you may get too caught up in work, forgetting about other hobbies, and feeling anxious until everything is finished. You tend to push yourself too hard, which can lead to exhaustion or even neglect if you don't achieve what you aimed for. You also have a love for material things, and after working so hard, you like to reward yourself with gifts that bring you pleasure.

Bacchus in Aquarius

You are feeling a deep sense of satisfaction and joy from helping others and being the "hero of the day." With a strong "main character" energy, you feel most fulfilled when you're experiencing unique social situations where you're supporting those around you, which gives you a sense of superiority. You live by the philosophy of "eat the rich" and prefer a simple, wild lifestyle, rebelling against political laws and social norms—not because you're a bad person or break laws for the sake of it, but because you love to challenge the status quo and resist the powers that be. You enjoy bending the rules and living as though each day were your last, feeling the most liberated when you're doing something that has the potential to change the world. You're passionate about volunteering or social work, always offering empathy to those you perceive as more disadvantaged than yourself. You love nature and are not materialistic, finding peace and pleasure in knowing you're a good person at heart. However, this behavior can also lead to negativity. By constantly detaching from social norms and breaking the rules in pursuit of personal satisfaction, you may sometimes find yourself in trouble or at odds with the world around you.

Bacchus in Pisces

Everything related to the spiritual world brings you the greatest pleasure. Having a religion or belief system that feels like home is the most important thing to you, and you're more passionate about other realms and universes than your own day-to-day life. You love the arts and are someone who lives to create in any form. You crave appreciation and always keep yourself busy with something. You're fascinated by magic and everything that comes with it, and you're a big fan of astral travel and guided meditations that take you to other dimensions. You're not very social, but you're deeply attached to the people you love. When you don’t receive the same love in return or feel let down by those people, you tend to withdraw and neglect yourself. For comfort, your passion for the occult serves as an outlet for your mental health, but at the same time, you may use spirituality as a way to escape your social obligations and daily problems, spending more time in your spiritual life than in the real world. From a young age, you’ve been a fan of everything fantasy-related, especially books and movies, and you feel safe in the company of mythical beings like griffins, unicorns, and dragons. Your greatest pleasure comes from evolving in your spiritual journey, and it deeply affects you when obstacles arise that prevent you from living your spiritual life the way you desire.

The Cult of Hermes

I thought it'd be fun to do some long posts on specific gods as a small guide for beginners, those interested in learning about them, or even just little refreshers.

Naturally this isn't everything (if anything it's the basics) and I can't cover everything single topic and aspect of a god in asking singular Tumblr post, but I hope it's a decent starting point!

As always, I am a single source and encourage you to seek out other resources and learn more for yourself ♡

• 𝐇𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲 •

Hermes- son of Zeus and the Pleiades nymph Maia, father of Pan- was the Olympian god of herds and flocks, travellers and hospitality, roads and trade, thievery and cunning, heralds and diplomacy, language and writing, athletic contests and gymnasiums, astronomy and astrology. He was the herald and personal messenger of��Zeus, King of the Gods, and also the guide of the dead who led souls down into the underworld.

Hermes was depicted as either a handsome and athletic, beardless youth or as an older, bearded man, with winged boots and a herald's wand.

(excerpt from theoi.com)

• 𝐀 𝐁𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐤𝐝𝐨𝐰𝐧 𝐨𝐟 𝐇𝐢𝐬 𝐇𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐜 𝐇𝐲𝐦𝐧 •

Hermes was born at dawn in a cave in Kyllene on the 4th of the 10th month and was immediately a menace to everyone and everything he came in contact with. He lept from his cradle as an infant in search of Apollo's cattle and, in midday, found a tortoise at the front of his cave and was immediately enamored by the beauty of hef shell. He took the tortoise into his cave and, with an iron knife, removed the shell. With sheep's guts, reeds, and cowhide, he fastened the shell into a lyre, the sound of it haunting and beautiful. He sang of Kronos and Maia, and his own birth as well as Maia's handmaidens.

But while he sang, he realized he wanted more and paved the lyre in his crib before setting off in search of meat. As the sun began to set, he made his way to the mountains of Piera, where the gods kept their divine cattle and stole a herd of 50. He turned their hooves backward, so as they walked, their tracks led away from him and fastened himself sandals as he hated walking barefoot.

An old man tending his vineyard witnessed him herding the cows, and Hermes promised him abundance in wine if the man pretended he hadn't met him.

The moon rode high as Hermes led the cattle to a high arching cave, feeding them lotus and grass. Having acquired the cattle, Hermes then desired fire and started one with sticks in a pit he created.

Hermes then picked 2 cows from the herd and drove his knife through their backbones. He cut their meat, cooking it over the fire and cut it into 12, even portions. He set the offering out on a flat stone, and even though the smell was tempting, he did not eat. Instead, he lifted the smoking meats and fat high in the air to show off his skills of thievery.

When he had finished, he threw his sandals into the Alpheos River and smoldered the fire. He smoothed the ashes until nothing remained.

He quickly returned to his home in Kyllene as dawn rose, so stealthy and quick he was heard and seen by no mortal or god, and crawled back into his cradle and swaddled himself as if he'd never left.

But his mother noticed his absence, and Maia asked where he had gone, calling him all manner of shameless and cunning and a thief. Hermes (being the gaslighter he is) feined innocence, appales his mother could think these things of just a newborn.

He told her that he would learn any skill for them, as he desired to not stay in the cave and wanted to be rich, with crops, and to speak with the other gods. He wanted the same respects from Zeus given to Apollo, defiantly stating that if he couldn't receive them, he would just steal them.

It was during this time that the sun rose, and Apollo found the old man Hermes had sworn to secrecy, asking if he had seen a man with his cattle. The old man claimed he had not, but instead saw a baby with a wand leading the herd. Apollo headed the words speedily in search of his cattle and found the cave of Kyllene where Hermes lived.

He opened the closets and all, searching for his cattle before going before Hermes and asking where he had hidden his cows. He threatened to throw him into Tartarus, where Maia nor Zeus would ever be able to rescue him. Hermes (once again being a gaslighter from birth) claimed he'd never seen nor heard of Apollo's cattle. He claimed that because he was just a baby, he didn't have the capabilities to take his cattle and instead was focused on newborn things such as his mother's milk. That he had only been born yesterday, and his feet were too soft to handle the rough ground. Because Hermes was the original male manipulator, he offered to even swear an oath to Zeus that he hadn't taken the caftle nor seen anyone that had. Hermes apparently had a terrible poker face as a baby, though, as his expressions betrayed his words and made Apollo laugh.

Apollo claimed he'd be a plunderer, robbing all manner of homes before naming him the prince of thieves and scooping him up and taking him away. Hermes decided that as a baby, his best bet to be released was to do the most baby thing in the world. Which was fart and sneeze in Apollo's face, who flung him to the ground.

Apollo told him that he WILL lead him to his cattle, and Hermes, in annoyance, continued to claim he had no clue what he was talking about. The two made their way to Zeus.

Apollo recounted what he knew to Zeus, how Hermes had stolen his cattle and hidden them.

Hermes claimed he didn't even know how to lie and spoke about how Apollo had barged into his home and threatened him over cattle he knew nothing about, attempting to force a confession. He pleased (near demanded) that Zeus take his side as the youngest brother, and Zeus laughed from amusement at Hermes's lies. He ordered the brothers to work together to find the cattle, with Hermes as the guide, which he agreed to.

Hermes led Apollo to the cave he held the cows, and Apollo was appalled to find 2 of them dead. Apollo was set to kill him there, but Hermes instead grabbed the lyre he crafted, playing it for Apollo, who was immediately taken to it. Apollo asked if he had crafted it himself or taken it from mortals, and Hermes proudly announced the lyre to be his own creation.

Apollo offered Hermes rites and riches for him and his mother in exchange for the lyre, which Hermes agreed to. In the exchange, Apollo gave Hermes his whip, nicknames him the cattle hearder. And as Apollo played, Zeus joined them as friends.

For a moment Apollo worried that Hermes would steal his lyre and bow (valid fears) and asked that Hermes swear to the gods not to, which he did, and Apollo promised to love Hermes more than any other siblings.

Apollo gave Hermes the herald's wand, making note that the wand would not grant Hermes the oracular gifts bestowed upon him by Zeus (as he had promised to never share them). Instead, he would use it to confuse the mortal with luck, helping one and harming the other.

Hermes was then granted rulership over the cattle, horses, and mules, as well as lions, boards, dogs, and sheep. He was made the messenger of Hades, guide of the living and dead, dealing with the mortal and immortal, always flipping a coin for whether he will help or trick.

• 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐂𝐮𝐥𝐭 •

Hermes's cult was central in Peloponnese, with his most important shrine being in Mount Kyllene in Arkadia. That said, he was actively worshipped in Arkadia, Athens, and Delphi.

• 𝐀𝐫𝐤𝐚𝐝𝐢𝐚 •

In Arkadia, his shine in Mount Kyllene was a major site of worship as his birthplace. Statues of him were placed in fields and at crossroads, where farmers and travelers would make small offerings to as a rustic god and god of travel. He was often honored as a pastoral god as opposed to a trickster or messenger and was revered as the protector of flocks, herds, and the wild.

• 𝐀𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐧𝐬 •

As opposed to Arkadia, Hermes played a major role in the economic and active aspects of Athens as a protector of commerce/trade, travel, athleticism, and aspects of public life. He was honored as the patron of merchants, thieves, traders, athletes, and heralds, and was deeply ingrained in Athenian life which thrived in marketplace culture as he had several statues and altars dedicated to him throughout the agora (marketplace). It was common to make small offerings to these statues before engaging in commerce as he was invoked for fair trade. Although it's considered that merchants may have also invoked him as a god of cunning and trickery.

Statues of Hermae (stone pillars of his head and an errect phallus) were seen at crossroads and city entrance for protection and good luck and even used as property markers.

Athletes would also pray to and give offerings to Hermes before games for speed and dexterity, and young Athenians participated in rituals for him.

• 𝐃𝐞𝐥𝐩𝐡𝐢 •

Delphic Hermes was strongly seen as a patron messenger, mediator, and guide. Gis khthonic ties were most heavily seen here, as psychopomp and his ties to the divine, communication, and divination were paramount.

As Apollo traded his caduceus for Hermes's lyre, he was worshipped closely alongside him as a second primary deity in Delphi. Those who sought the divinity of the Oracle would also often invoke Hermes for guidance and protection, as well as the messenger of the gods.

Because Delphi was so sacred as the center of divination and prophecy, Hermes would commonly be invoked to help understand and interpret the cryptic messages of the Pythia.

It was heavily seen in Delphi (and Athens) that Hermes was also the guide of souls and was invoked during funerary rites to safely guide the deceased in the afterlife.

Finally, Hermes was sometimes associated with the Omphalos as a divine boundary keeper, maintaining balance between the mortal and divine realms. He was believed to protect the sanctity of Delphi, preventing chaotic or deceitful forces from disrupting Apollo’s prophetic order.
