[hyakinthou-naos]

Hello there , I hope I'm not bothering you , but I was wondering if you could give me some advice <3

I've been a devotee of Lady Selene for a while ( and while I'm also devoted to other deities, I'd say I have the strongest connection to her ) , and ever since I've seen these wonderful e-temples to honor the theoi , I've been thinking about making an e-temple to Lady Selene, but at the moment I'm a little overwhelmed and not sure where to begin. And I'm a bit worried that I , as a devotee , am not fit for running an e-temple since I'm not an experienced priestess . Maybe you could give me some tips or suggestions, but you of course don't need to ! Either way, I hope you have an amazing day, khaire <3

Khaire Louisa,

Thank you for your question! I am honored that you came to us seeking advice regarding starting your own temple.

I gave a quick glance to your blog and noticed that you are a minor.

At this time, The Temple is currently deliberating on the ethical nature of those under the age of 18 creating and stewarding temples within the community.

We are unable to give any advice at this time, as we are not sure where this deliberation will end up.

I think it is wonderful that you feel called to religious practice and temple stewardship, but at this time it may be more worthwhile to create an e-shrine or devotional blog. (Information regarding the difference between a Temple and a Shrine can be found here).

My apologies that this is probably not the answer you are looking for, but it is the best answer I am able to give at this time.

Eirene, peace and farewell.

- Aön

ISO: THE GODKIN E-SHRINE WEBSITE

Ok, I've been trying to hunt down this website for a while and I was just reminded of it. I remember in 2014 or so, a little bit before the 2017 influx of kinning, there was this online e-shrine website where people could click and drag clipart assets to make a shrine/altar to a god. It was super popular with the godkin sub community, and I remember people making posts and sending anons about how they prayed at the shrines and sent like.. offerings I think. Does anyone else remember this? It was like web 1.0 and super customizable.

Lovely Aphrodite! I am presenting to you this shrine, offerings and thank you for all the attraction and harmony you have brought to my sphere. I pray that you bring beautiful hot sex workers in my life. May I have fun, hang out and have pleasure with them. Bring healing and harmony to my relationships, and sweeten the words that I speak, and those that are spoken to and about me... (you can make further specific requests, as desired). Please accept these offerings as treasured gifts, and heartfelt thanks to you, Aphrodite, who is Most Beautiful! Amen.

Intro

This is most likely an ADHD impulse thing, but why the hell not.

That and my “oathbound” tag on my main polytheism blog was getting Weird.

I very much feel like She wants Her own space again, so...here you go, my Lady.

I keep thinking of the kinda ppl who have nichefavs n do the most for creating stuff about them like whole gallery full of pics/writting for them, eshrine kinda thing y'know. I like that energy so bad and I'm kinda sad I personally could never match even a fraction of that energy bc i don't Do Niche I always latch on to the protags even if they're just generic mcs I can't help it I am not inmune to the protagonist. Which means I have not experienced the highs and lows of. Background blorbo
