e-offering to Hestia, Themis, and Nemesis

Fair child of Cronos, worshipful and dear; come now into this house, indwell and draw near; Hail Hestia, the place of honor is ever yours; bestow your grace and favor and for you sweet wine will I pour.

Illustrious Themis, of celestial birth, you I invoke, young blossom of the earth; Be present, Goddess, to my prayer inclined, and bless my cause with favoring mind.

Nemesis, immortal judge, to you I sing this song-- lieutenant of fairness, requiter of wrong Despise the lordly with all your strength and art and lay them low in the Netherdark.

Hail to you goddesses, implacable and just, To you I offer praise and in you I put my trust.

Honestly the myth of aura would’ve been funny if Artemis and nemesis weren’t psychopaths and decided to punish her a different method

Maybe turn her into a flower or something idk, rape is used as punishment several times in the Dionysiaca it’s gross.

CALLING ALL WITCHES!

If you worship, honor, or work with the Greek goddess Nemesis then I'd really like to chat and find y'all out here! She is my A1 from day one and I've yet to have any actual conversations with any other person who works with her!

I'm also seeking more historical references and information to help me in my practice and welcome any recommendations!!!

Just learned that the sacred animal of Nemesis, goddess of Retribution is a goose. Somehow nothing in Greek mythology has made so much sense

Artemis and Nemesis doodles after playing Hades 2 for a bit…they’re so fine….gaugh…

okay the whole vase is great but something about Helen sitting on Aphrodite's lap as she wraps one arm around her shoulder and brushes her leg with her hand, staring into her eyes like that... as she is persuading Helen to go with Paris (while Peitho aka persuasion stands behind them) is so incredibly iconic.

and gay. toxic yuri, if you will.

maybe icarus went through with melinoë's plan because he assumed if something went wrong the consequences would be his to suffer, not hers

he's already dead. what else can be done? if he disappears, that's that. he wouldn't want her to get hurt, but she's a goddess. she's a powerful witch. wouldn't she be invincible in icarus's eyes?

and then he's horribly wrong

astarion and gale when convinced not to ascend: reasonably cowed

lae'zel and shadowheart when convinced not to ascend: instantaneously and drastically switches sides

Is Nemesis a cthonic or ouranic goddess? I've found suggestions both ways, but nothing concrete.

The Evermore Grimoire: Greek Mythology

Nemesis (νεμεσις meaning ‘to give what is due’) was the goddess of divine retribution and revenge in Greek mythology. She would show her wrath to any human being that would commit hubris (arrogance before the gods). Nemesis was also a remorseless goddess, and was frequently portrayed as a winged goddess wielding a whip or even a dagger. In one myth she enacted divine retribution on Narcissus for his vanity. After he rejected the advances of the nymph Echo, Nemesis lured him to a pool where he caught sight of his own reflection and fell in love with it, eventually dying. However she was also known as Adrasteia, meaning ‘The Inescapable,’ or the ‘Goddess of Rhamnous’ in recognition of her famous temple in the city Rhamnous.

They have two different vase paintings depicting them together. That’s it lol

It’s more like a crack ship than anything tho
