You, tremendous and Athenian, crush these foolish zionists under your heel.

Goddess unrivaled in wisdom

Born of the head of wise and mighty Zeus

Bestow upon me wisdom and reason

Bless me with good judgment

As I pour out my offering to you Lady Athena

Hear me and bless me

So that I may succeed in my endeavors

Grant me a sound mind

So that I may succeed in my schooling

That I may call upon your great knowledge and wisdom

That I may know what is best

Accept this offering mighty Athena

And extend to me aid

Grant to me the gifts of knowledge and wisdom

Allow me focus and learning

Lady Athena grant me your aid that I may pass all this semester's classes

Homeric Hymn to Lady Athena 🗡️🦉✨

I begin to sing of Pallas Athena, the glorious goddess,

bright-eyed, inventive, unbending of heart, pure virgin,

saviour of cities, courageous, Tritogeneia.

From his awful head wise Zeus himself bore her

arrayed in warlike arms of flashing gold,

and awe seized all the gods as they gazed.

But Athena sprang quickly from the immortal head

and stood before Zeus who holds the aegis, shaking a sharp spear:

great Olympus began to reel horribly at the might

of the grey-eyed goddess, and earth round about cried fearfully,

and the sea was moved and tossed with dark waves,

while foam burst forth suddenly:

the bright Son of Hyperion stopped his swift-footed horses a long while,

until the maiden Pallas Athena had stripped

the heavenly armor from her immortal shoulders.

And wise Zeus was glad.

Hail to you, daughter of Zeus who holds the aegis!

ATHENA 'ND HERMES

I think epithets "ο φύλακας της γνώσης" /o fylakas tis gnósis/ (the keeper of knowledge) for Athena and "ο κομιστής της γνώσης" /o komistís tis gnósis/ (the bearer of knowledge) for Hermes are amazing. I turn to them lately since I'm preparing for my exams and you know they really give me confidence and motivation. Athena supports me when I do theoretical parts and stuff when you need to tHiNk and Hermes just gives such careless mood and I don't worry about the surroundings and pressure around me. also he feels like very strong sunny energy that just screams "fuck the system, exams are not the end of the life go and sniff some flowers and drink coffee!!".

honestly, I love them.

I see the helm of Tireless Athena, Wise-Eyed

With her thousand woven threads

That stretch down from the heavens-

Wisest Athena, I now praise.

Let me rest in the hollow of your shield

Carry me the last breaths of wisdom that I cannot grasp

And turn towards me your favor.

The uncertainty of my voyage casts me out

Far into the sea

A familiar prayer once again for your ears, I sing

“Grant me your blessing,”

Oh, Gilded One
