As an autist sometimes the Gods are more easy to communicate with than people. I constantly have the autistic fear of people misinterpreting my words and that just doesn’t exist with them.
Me after rambling about something: sorry, I’m not quite sure how to explain that, I hope you know what I mean
Hermes, the literal God of language: I understand what you mean, it’s okay.
Me, still trying to explain: I just want to make sure you’re not getting the wrong idea
Hermes: Dude, I know what you mean. I always know what you mean. I don’t apply hidden subtext to your words because I know that’s not your intention. I’m not a human.
Me: I’m just nervous I’m coming across wrong
Hermes: oh you poor traumatized child. I KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN.
The Gods don’t find you embarrassing. The Gods don’t care about seeming cool and professional for the approval of others.
Make that fucking aesthetic photo collage for Aphrodite with cute pics you found on Pinterest .
Dress up like Hermes and go for a damn walk.
Collect random stones you think are cool and put them on your altar.
Put that photo of that cartoon character that reminds you of your deity on your altar.
Make that Minecraft temple to Hekate, domesticate those damn Minecraft wolves for Cerberus.
Make your deities in the sims!
Write soppy melodramatic poetry for Dionysus that no one else will read.
Make self insert fanfics about your favourite Gods and write them all as your best friends. Let them interact with your edgy ocs.
Create an AU where you and your Gods are all characters from your favourite anime.
Record silly little songs for them
Make them paintings that are full of clashing colors and weird forms.
Draw them a fursona
Wear that bright yellow outfit for Apollon.
Put on a dramatic makeup look for Aphrodite.
Call your closest deity that silly little nickname you have for them and let them call you one too.
Share your special interests with your Gods. Design your God as a pokémon or a crystal gem, or a sonic character.
Those losers that try to make you feel bad for being passionate will never have what you have.
In the words of the Great Lord Hermes: “Every human I have ever liked was at least a little bit cringe”
BE CRINGE. BE PROUD. THE GODS LOVE YOU.
Does anyone else’s deities get really aggressive with ya when you are sick and not resting when you should be?
It’s like guys I know but most meds don’t work for me and I can’t sit down for more than 5 minutes without having to always be constantly doing something.. 
No for real cause the amount of times people have gotten really aggressive about how you should fear the gods/guides/etc when I find the most comfort and I’m actually able to relax around them.
Frankly, I'm of the POV and opinion that you really shouldn't be scared of your spirit guides, gods or not. Yes, you should acknowledge their great, tremendous power and how that could harm you. Like it's good to acknowledge that Zeus could absolutely fuck you up if He wanted to. But at the same time... why would Zeus want to fuck you up? That's the question.
See, when you worship, work with, or otherwise interact with a spirit, you're gonna hopefully seek out a friendly relationship. Even if it's more vertical than horizontal, you're still on good terms with your spirit.
Your friends shouldn't want to hurt you. Your teachers shouldn't want to hurt you. Your coworkers shouldn't want to hurt you. Etc, etc, just fill in whatever relationship type you have. So essentially, your spirit guide shouldn't want to hurt you, and if they do, that's a problem entirely.
I kinda somewhat get the idea of fearful obeisance, where you provide humble respect but keep a healthy amount of fear. I get the concept. It just does not fit in with my preferred way to work with spirits.
This post isn't saying "If your spirit guides hurt you, you must have done something to deserve it" either. I think, personally, that's a really bad take. Harsh lessons exist, yes, but that's not the same, and the difference should be that it's being done for your genuine highest good and that your guide isn't getting some kick outta the hard parts of it. If your spirit guide is actively trying to harm you for funsies or some shit, there's a problem.
It's fine to be a bit nervous. It's fine to feel a bit of fear when faced with such intense power. But you shouldn't be scared of the person that holds the power, is my opinion. If you do feel scared, consider (A) if this is a person you want to work with, and (B) if this is even the person you think it is, because a fear response can mean a malefic spirit.
I swear Poseidon likes to even do it when you just decide to stand in the water. He’s knocked me over idk how many times. lol. Love him tho. 💙
Heyo! I’m extremely new to being a Poseidon worshipper (I only realized that he’s been calling out to me a few days ago!) but I’m very much not new to god/deity work in general and I’ve been a witch since I was a teenager! (I’m 23 now! :3) Anyways, I’ve got a small silly story about Poseidon that I wished to tell as an offering of sorts to this neat little blog!
A few years ago, I was at the beach with my family, and we were riding out the waves. I was starting to feel pretty cocky and confident because I felt like I was easily surpassing the waters, so I said out loud “IS THAT THE BEST YOU GOT POSEIDON?!” while pumping my fists out into the air.
Swiftly thereafter, I was sent tumbling upside down by the next wave, so hard that my family only saw my legs poking out of the water. I was fine, but by the time I got back up my family were all laughing their asses off at me. This is a fond memory for me nowadays, and I hope this counts as a good offer! It makes me smile whenever I think about it, and I can only hope it’ll bring some smiles to other people too 💙🌊
I will never stop talking about how he loves to dunk people😭💙
pronouns? sorry I don't do those, not anymore. I used to have some but then this guy with winged sandals stole them from me so uh...
Well, I am hardly an expert, but I can point you in the direction of others who are!

I’ve seen numerous of people saying that there are beginner deities and hard deities. Here’s the thing: do not allow people to stop you from working with deities. You are allowed to work with any deities you wish, and there is no such thing as certain level deities.
“But—” Zeus smiled now “—everything else in the world is theirs to enjoy. They may travel to every corner. They can sail Poseidon’s oceans, seek Demeter’s help in sowing seeds and growing food, learn from Hestia the arts of keeping a home, discover how to keep animals for their milk, fur, and labor, and they can learn the arts of hunting from Artemis. Hermes can teach them guile, Apollo can instruct them in the arts of music and knowledge. Athena will teach them how to be wise and contented. And Aphrodite will share with them the arts of love. They will be free and happy.”
