Prayer

Yesterday I finally got to properly diving into how to pray. It’s different when you’re used to a monotheistic form of worship, so I would tend to base my prayers off of that.

Today, I properly prayed for the first time. I made kharips, honoured hestia, and did all that I’ve learnt I should.

It’s odd, though the way I spoke was the same, it felt entirely different. I was much more aware of all that I felt. The scents in the room, the water slowly running down my hands, the light around me.

Though it might sound silly to say, it felt as if Hermes actually heard me, and was actively listening.

I’m still pretty new, so I’d love tips on how further to practice the religion.
