For me and my family this has been an eventful year. During it we faced many challenges, but it looks like things are improving for us. No matter what, the Gods have been felt in our lives in many different ways. Mira is growing into a little lady and learning many different things (like how to enjoy…

The Solar year has just begun and the calendar year is ending in a few days. I find myself looking back on the past year with a mixture of feelings. On the one hand, I completed my self-imposed assignment of discussing each of the Delphic Maxims in turn. But on the other hand, I have…

This is an interesting topic and one that I hope to be able to write a little more on than some of the others. For me, many of the things that I do on a daily or weekly basis have religious significance even when those things are not “rituals” or blatantly religious. Even things that I do…

This entry is proof that the 30-Day Meme is not a good fit for everyone. I do not HAVE any favored ritual tools because this is a religion of the home. I use a coffee cup or shot glass for drink offerings and a plate for other offerings. Where do I get these items? My…

Hellenismos has rituals for a number of major life events, starting with the birth of a child and going on until death. There is not, however, an initiation into the religion such as many Pagan paths (and even some Christian ones) have. This is something that can come as a surprise to someone who starts…

It is an interesting thing to look back at the path that I have taken in my spiritual life and see the other paths that I have explored when they intersected with mine. Very few practitioners of Hellenismos started as worshipers of the Gods of Greece while they were still children. Most of us, at…

This is going to be a short entry today. I tend to be very private about my love life and sexuality. Hellenismos is a way of life and that includes its influence on the private parts of my life. I am not ashamed with these things but feel that it is nobody’s business except for…

This is actually going to be an easy one for me to write as my family and friends know that I practice Hellenismos and for the most part are fine with it. I will not say that my father would likely have endorsed it, but as he was a Greek Orthodox Christian priest, it would…
