I find myself very loved and safe in his presence, and unconsciously lean into my inner child more internally instead of masking it and being overly 'mature' in his presence. It embarrasses me a bit when I reflect after, but at the same time feels less burdensome and more refreshing.

I could tell he was fondly exasperated yet pleased by my devotion, and suddenly I had the strength to do everything. He guided me through my shower, having a small snack, even setting up my altar bit by bit. And after I had some warm coffee that I managed to go get, my stomach felt a lot better as well. I was able to do most of my proper ritual and finished all my readings successfully. I can not be thankful enough to him, and any other deity that may have helped me (I have been feeling a gentle connection that may be Lady Hestia, but I'm unsure)

me: gets up with the intention of meditating and doing tarot readings for myself and my friends (despite being sick all day)

Lord Hermes: declutter your space.

me: oh- ok...

Lady Hestia: darling, go shower as well

me: yes, yes, I should be clean before a reading mhm

Lord Hermes: for fucks sake this kid-

Lady Hestia: now wear the cute pajamas you haven't touched all year ♡ the ones with the little bears on them ♡♡♡

me: ...? (i literally felt such a Strong urge to take these out and wear the matching set despite already having clothes out for myself... I refuse to believe it was anything but divine messaging I don't even like these pjs much)

Lord Hermes: Now get the juice and a snack and tuck yourself in!

me: i... the juice was an offering for you guys... the tarot reading...

Lord Hermes: yes yes we accept the offering and you don't need the damned cards our message is EAT SOMETHING LIGHT AND GO TO SLEEP DUMB CHILD YOU ARE UNWELL YOU CAN NOT STOP SNEEZING

Lady Hestia: There there calm down Hermes... Go to sleep darling, all nice and warm ♡ let us watch over you instead

this interaction made me realize Lady Hestia was reaching out to me by the way... I've felt like it for a few days but the pajamas sort of confirmed it... I'm aware bears aren't associated with her but these pajamas are warm and depict an older bear and a kiddo bear and feel very homely... I avoid them because they generally feel childish but today they feel so warm and comforting... like my mother picked out my most comfortable clothes and tucked me in while I'm sick... if that makes sense... anyways, goodnight friends... i hope everyone has a good day

my first question was will my trip (i'm traveling for the weekend) go well, and it came out really positive. I interpreted it as "it will be fulfilling, satisfactory, and worth it" which was relieving since I'm traveling to give my driving test I've been struggling with for the past three years.

my next question was what (relationship/emotions) does he feel for me. two cards fell out!!! the first was the emperor, and the second was strength. personally i found this very positive since I do see him as a older brother/father figure and he does guide me and give me "strength" (in form of compassion, energy, positive vibes, pushing me in the right direction, etc) and I'm very very pleased that the connection I felt with him wasn't one sided. Anyways I love and adore Lord Hermes.

For context, I have started working with Lord Hermes recently, and today was the first proper bad reading session I had since I connected with him? And he helped a lot and I just feel very blessed at the moment.

So, things were going wrong left and right, I was feeling 'off' with the cards that I was pulling every so often, my intuition was clouded, and one of my friends who I was divining for kept adding her own meanings and interrupting my meaning because she didn't want to hear what the cards were saying, she only wanted to hear her own thing.

At one point, suddenly all the cards were being very firm. The same cards were repeating, coming off as a solid warning or "full stop", and it freaked my friend out enough to finally believe my cards and leave...

At that point I was rather drained and upset and still hadn't done my daily self reflection reading... but when I sat down to do it, none of the cards made sense. It was confusing, so I try again... and almost immediately when I start shuffling, a card falls out. It felt very strongly like Lord Hermes was calling me moody, telling me to step back, take a breather. I was shocked I'd recieved such guidance and in such a direct manner, but once I took it, my reading went much more smoothly as well.

My past card signified i'd been using my energy right and been productive, and my future card was positive, but my present card seemed to signify emptiness and blocked creativity. It made me laugh a little, and feel like someone was watching over me and looking after me, telling me not to worry about the future and scolding me for not resting enough and at the same time acknowledging my hard work in the past few days.

I haven't felt so cared for in forever. Looking back, I would've probably had a meltdown if it weren't for him, and I'm so awed with how he managed to make everything okay...

really sleepy... but at peace as well,, sleeping in vehicles while traveling long distances always puts me in a certain soft and gentle state of mind I really like. The movements lulling me to sleep... waking up to PA announcements... having meals at gas stations and airports as you slowly wake up... traveling feels like a soft sort of love at times. I genuinely love traveling so much... I know a lot of people don't, and I can understand that, but I surprisingly have none of the problems people usually do (carsickness, cant sleep in cramped seats, gets bored easily, etc) so it's almost always a very pleasant experience for me... Perhaps it is Lord Hermes' blessing that allows so. Good morning everyone, I hope today goes well for you.
