Need a better header. Suggestions welcomed.

Snapshots: Sharing Sacred Space

Poseidon Shrine Vigil for the Bulls 2016. Shared with permission.

Hearth Keeper: Featuring a Brass Ram that represents Vulcan-Hephaestus, a black shot glass of olive oil, a yellow candle, my first soldered piece, a Little People’s Donkey, an a tasting spoon of offerings of flour and barley. I’m still in the process of making Hephaestus His own shrine space. It’ll be a recycled hanging one like Poseidon’s above, and be large enough for that Ram.

Hearth Keeper writes: This is a second shrine for Poseidon that I made from recycled materials that looks like a beach (more so on the inside). It’s not quite finished, but then what shrine is in the beginning? On top is an octopus that I crocheted for Him. Within is a mini alcohol bottle filled with salt water, a piece of roasted seaweed, a red plate of rosemary and sea salt, an an LED light (because having a real tealight in this space isn’t space). It’s hanging by three braided yarns, each color representing Poseidon, Zeus, and Hades. Hanging down beneath are protective bottles. Not pictured in this photo is a dolphin charm that represents His wife, Amphitrite. [Jo writes: YAY POSEIDON SHRINE!!!! *ahem*]

Hearth Keeper: This is one of my bedroom shrines, dedicated to Kuan Yin and is used for healing. Not pictured is a shrine to Poseidon that is also used for healing, namely for anger management. It’s on the other side of the dresser. Both shrines aid in balancing my moods and reminding me of my ultimate goals of being a better and healthier person.

Hearth Keeper: This corner is next to my main entrance and is dedicated to Household Gods and Spirits. Hestia’s shrine is on the left and the crocheted serpent on the right represents my home’s Agathos Daimon (House Spirit).

Willamette River, looking north-east. One of my favorite places to get outside and touch in, that is not the ocean.

Welcome to My Polytheism! Thanks for stopping by!

My Polytheism strives to be an inclusive space. We are not a 'platform for everyone' space. While we want to encourage people to share their experiences with their polytheist practices, we are not interested in telling others they are doing it wrong. You don't have to agree with everyone on all points, but this is not a space for debate. This is not a space where anyone has to prove anything to you. This is a place to celebrate our diversity in a diverse and amazing world. Thank you for helping to make My Polytheism great!
