This is more a question for Rafe, but I know we have a few other people on the forum interested in this stuff also, so I'm asking publicly.
It's a known fact that I don't believe in the gods as actual beings. I think of them as being archetypes, tools to help us access the divine, but I don't think of them as anything inferior, or anything less for this. They just aren't real, you know? (let's not open that can of worms)
For those of you who follow the Hellenic calendar, how do you incorporate Grecian or Roman worship into your daily life? My partner and I talk about Dionysus a lot. I mean, a lot. A lot more often than two agnostic/atheist people would. I think worshipping him would do a lot for my inner self. I've always felt an affinity to Artemis. I have a tattoo of an ancient sun who's twelve points represent the olympians. I'm interested.
But where do I start? I frankly don't have time to include all twelve, all the time. I barely manage the sabbats.
So Hellenists, how do you incorporate the ancient ways into your smartphone living, 9-5 monday to friday, dog (or kid) owning lives?
