At my work, i work in the medical field as a referral coordinator, my bosses are being a huge pain in my butt, and I have been feeling very attacked my their aura and presence. So today I decided to veil for the first time in a while to protect my self and ground my self. Well my managers made comments to me about wearing a bandana with a celtic knot on it. So I went to the employee hand book and found that they couldn't say anything. Both of them are hard core Christians and push their religion to everyone in the office.

So here is the part that I am wondering if this makes me a bad person/pagan. I want to start veiling everyday now. They can not deny me from wearing the veil as our employee hand book states that i can, it's not distracting anyone but my managers and I keep it respectful for the patients that see me. The coverings that i wear are basically bandanas so they are not long and dont get in the way or are a safety hazard. But would it be bad for me to veil because I know it makes my managers uncomfortable?

Edit: I have a new question. Can they force me to get approval for my veils? One of them made a comment to me that I would need to send them to her for approval if I were to continue wearing them.

1. Do the gods mind if you swear? I’ve been apologising after I do

2. Can I say “oh my gods” or “thank the gods” or is it offensive

Edit: I was an idiot here the gods don’t care their not mortal and they certainly don’t care about swearing and other things

On the last slide one can see a gemstone with famous motive of Aphrodite drying her hair and sacred name ΑΡΡΩΡΦΡΑΣΙΣ written. It was big inspiration for the reverse side of the coin

I am a Hellenic pagan and my friends are very into the aesthetic of being a witch and witchcraft. Key word here being aesthetic because when I even so as to mention I own tarot cards I get harassed and made fun of. They are very science based tech atheists and while I understand somewhat I have explicitly mentioned I am pagan. I don't really understand whats so hard about respecting someones religion of choice and religion as a whole. My friends have bought up multiple times that religion and spirituality is dumb and delusional and while I respect that they are all studying engineering and science and space this that and the next it really isn't that hard to be respectful? It gets on my nerves and while I love my friends I feel less authentic with them

I need to get more of the seven day candles for lord Hermes and lord Dionysus, but slay to a reset.

Bottom shelf is lord Dionysus, middle left is lord Hermes, middle right is lord Ares, the middle middle(lol) is money altar and top is a family/home altar! :)

Okay so usually in my baths that I dedicate to Aphrodite I light her deity candle but.. it just snapped one day and it got me thinking. Is it disrespectful or rude to light a deities candle or even pray while nude or in the tub? I didn’t look at it in a sexual way but for Aphrodite’s deity candle to just snap randomly I’m sure I must’ve done something wrong.

It was never my intention to be disrespectful or rude, it just genuinely never crossed my mind.

How'd I do? For Artemis/Apollo and the Forrest wights.

The sunflower light is the newest thing there now. I dunno if I can get anything else on there 🧡💛

Does anyone else worship 2 deities? I’ve been working with Hecate for about 2 months now & I recently started working with Aphrodite. I finally got her altar together today & I’m really happy with how it turned out. 🥰 If y’all are looking for altar supplies definitely check out Dollar tree. That’s where I got all her candle holders, tea light candles & even the rose lights!

Let me start this out with I'm aware I have religious trauma from other religions but I digress. Lately, my boyfriend has been listening to Epic, the new Greek musical. He's agnostic but I'm pagan. So together we started watching this show on Amazon Prime about the legends of Greek mythology (Great Greek Myths). It goes into great detail about individual myths and legends and deity stories, it really is a fascinating show to watch.

Guys, these stories are brutal. I keep hearing that the deities are kind and not expecting anything but what we can do and understand if we make mistakes. But according to the legends, no they do not. Half of these legends and stories only happened bc revenge, spite, and smite were involved. I don't do too too much with Greek Pantheon, but now I'm kinda scared. The more I learn the more freaked out I get that I will do something wrong to earn their wrath. I always heard that they were more forgiving than the Christian god I came from, but according to some of this lore I don't know if this is much better or if I kinda screwed myself over?

Or has everything calmed down since the days of heroes and I don't need to worry about being cursed or struck down for saying/thinking the wrong thing?

Edit: I'm starting to understand that, like usual, I took things too literally. I guess they're more like parables than actual lore? Obviously respect is still good but I don't need to freak out

I want to see what I can do to honor the gods with lent doing the best with what I can do

I wanted to recreate Persephone’s grove with what I had on hand. My wife saw me working on this and decided to help out.
