About Me

Hello, I am the keeper of this altar, and you may call me Charis. I am in my 20’s and I have worshipped the gods for over a decade, but that does not mean I am an authority on the divine. I am simply their servant, their friend, and their humble student.

I am here to honor and worship my gods, as I see fit. I venerate most of the gods to honor them and their domains. Most common are the household gods, the house spirits, my job’s patron, and more. I pray to Hermes for safe travels, I honor Athena in my political studies, and I praise Hestia for keeping my home cool in the summer and warm in the winters.

My relationships with my gods are my own. I honor them as I see fit. I will not allow discourse, drama, or disrespect towards me, my practices, or my relationships.

That being said, I am honored to be in a godspousal relationship with Apollon. I am honored and guided by his love everyday and carry him with me always. This blog was started as a way to leave more physical prayers in his honor, to remember all he has done for me.

You may peruse as you deem fit, and I thank you for your time and consideration.

Prayers

King Zeus, protector and ruler, god and king, I ask that you bless this safe space, and provide wisdom and grant grace to those who wander these halls of mine. I ask you bless them with the judgement to seek curiosity and leave contrition behind. I ask you bless this space with all the good you carry and wish to bestow. For every guest who passes through, may you be blessed with the love I have for you and the respect you deserve.

May Hestia bless the hearth of this online home, whose foundation was built in honor of the gods so that peace and rest may be shared. May this home be blessed with all her grace and warmth, and her strength in protecting the home be granted to mine. For every guest who passed through, may you be blessed with the food I consume in your honor, and thanks to your blessing, have.
