I think my translation of Orphic hymn to Aphrodite to Arabic is my best poetic work so far, yet it barely qualifies to be a poem in Arabic :\

I shared it before and I'm sharing it here. Translation is more than 500 characters and so a thread is born 🧵

Im looking for more Apollo devotees to follow, or anyone who worships Apollo regularly. Any of the other Theo devotees are welcome as well! I'm trying to create a very Greco-Roman space to live in digital (:

I need to rebrand myself on my other socials. I've tried really hard to make my brand about education of astrology and very beginner / "baby witch" friendly, but I was doing it from a secular place. That isn't the case anymore, as I've fully dedicated myself to the theoi and recognize their rightful place in the stars.
I'm unsure of how to proceed. I want to focus mostly on astrology, and I want to put my best foot forward while representing the gods astrologically.
Another thought is that I don't see anyone else on my side of social media representing the theoi with their astrology, and maybe that would make me stand out? That would be helpful, but I do not want to "use" the gods in that way, or make them feel like I'm clout chasing, since I am so new to the faith as a whole.

Any thoughts or ideas? Any and all commentary would be appreciated 💙

I don't know where else to put this that won't end up making its way to the people it's about but like

I am confused by the way multiple unconnected people who are allegedly In Touch With (or whatever) #Nemesis seem to see her as their personal case worker mommy who is here to support them?

Like. How do you get the UPG that she is "on your side." Her literal job and function in the cosmos was supposed to be being on *Themis's* side. Especially when it was time to deny a mortal something they shouldn't have.

So where is this "Jesus is deeply invested in the success of my free throws" type of approach coming from???

The entire best thing about her as she was supposed to be is that she can't be bribed, she doesn't give free passes, and so people didn't pray for those things; they prayed to be the kind of person who's in alignment with her.

What EXACTLY is the difference between Nemesis and #Themis if we strip away her "ethics before individuals" approach?

I don't know if anyone else on here is into #Hellenist type shit but if you are, here is what I found about Nemesis specifically.
