Greetings sister Hps Lydia Could you please help kn regards to the Financial Safety and Protection ritual words of powers formation please 🙏 😊
My reply to a post:

Medicine and proper medical practices save lives. With a lot of spiritual advancement we can help with healing, but the required amount of advancement and energy needed is far beyond the practical scope of the vast majority of people. Nobody should delay medical intervention thinking they can meditate the illness away.

The ancients had medicine and surgery, even with their knowledge of spiritual practices.

Well i should have put more details in my post, i know that meditation alone can't heal everything but together with others like magic spiritual advancement, and i understood now that even with all of these some illnesses can't be healed with meditation, magic and spiritual advancement alone, like infections, viruses, poison, wounds..

I did the mistake of relying on meditation for healing but not because I had the belief that material medicine wasn't going to work but because of hard financial strains. Once my finances became more constant and I had a great guide on diet and medicine I have been to be able to heal my body. The meditations and workings for health led me to find the physical answers I needed to start healing. I hope no one ever does this intentionally as there is nothing but suffering from denying themselves proper medical care.
I feel like I've advanced more spiritually in the last month then in the 2 years preceding it. For years I had plenty of alone time, but I kept putting off meditation while waiting for the "perfect" time, which of course never came. Living in a group home isn't ideal, there are plenty of people who seem to always be making noise, lol. But since resuming my program weeks ago, I haven't missed a single session. I no longer wait for the time that feels perfect, I make use of the time and space I currently have. Where there's a will, there's a way.

I continue to stay sober and work on the underlying issues related to addiction. It's certainly hard, as my brain is still recovering. But I am very grateful to have been given a second chance, and this beautiful community has been very helpful. I still worry sometimes about how to fix my life, I'm not sure what I should do career wise. But I know I love the Gods and Goddesses, and I love our amazing Temple. I am in a much better place then I was a few months ago, when I was still in active addiction and burying my true feelings in drugs. Thank you to all who help maintain and build up this wonderful Place.
When I performed the Great Ritual of Zeus, I had a vision afterward
I focused on my third eye and saw images begin to shift and change in the following order
At first, it was a peacock with colorful wings, white swan, seven-headed serpent emerging from the bottom of my spine (1st chackra?) And then a bee with white butterfly wings
I still don't know how to fully interpret these signs, hope i gonna figure it out soon, if anyone has any suggestions you're welcome to share
I wanted to write these tidbits about my new name, since I know a couple people were curious.

On its origins, it came to me in a dream. Nothing grand or mysterious, I was literally just scrolling the Forums and answering a couple questions (...in a dream), and the username I had was Khemenu Nefermed.
I had thought of changing my name to something more personally meaningful before that, and the three fragments of this name are words I didn't, at least to my knowledge, know of before this dream.
So I meditated on the name, and felt a deep connection to it, elaborated a bit on it, and out came Khem Nefermed.

It has layers of meaning, some of which are too personal to share, but I will share the biggest part of it.

The name can roughly translate to "Khem, of beautiful speech."

Nefer-medu means beautiful-word, and it relates to my passion for writing and the oratory arts in general. It obviously also relates to Lord Thoth.

Khem itself I didn't translate above, because it has a triple meaning in terms of what it means to me.

Firstly, the biggest meaning is that it is short for Khemenu or Khemenew. This means "The Eight", "the Ogdoad", and it relates to the eight primordial deities of Egypt, worshipped in the city of the same name.
This city was later called Hermopolis Magna, or the Great City of Hermes, because it was the largest cult of Thoth.

Secondly, it relates to Kemet, Egypt itself. I have many pagan cultures I am fascinated with and attracted to, but Egypt has been with me my entire life, down to my early childhood.

Thirdly, it relates to Khem itself, which means "dark", in the sense of fertility. Months before this, I had a dream of a deity I could not make sense of, because it wasn't well known. It was Min, the Egyptian God of reproduction and fertility. This is a God I was close to in ways I didn't know until I researched it deeper. Khem as "fertile" (a reference to darker soil) is an epithet of many Gods, including Min.

Yes, the fact that Khem has three meanings is also an intentional nod to Hermes Trismegistus. The name is quite connected to Hermes/Thoth, and I hope to honor Him in the work I do.

The name can translate to, if we take all of these meanings, "Fruitful one of the Ogdoad, of good words, the Egyptian".

Until we get a new God Ritual schedule, we can perform the ritual of Lord Kheiron, as it is now His week (May 5-9).

Yours Wisdom know no boundaries
You came into my life long before I recognized you
When I first mentioned you in passing in my book
You are a moving intellectual power that cuts through all boundaries, move all ignorance away
Everything becomes clear under your rays
All liars, all false authority, that being grabbed by the scruff of the neck by yours iron hand, blinded, they're turning away from yours light
Even thus, they continue persist without shame - "I know better than anyone and better than you, obey or be cursed."
Looking at them naked, I respond them with silence, your voice is clear enough against that useless noise that feed nothing but ego
I take my gaze away from them to you in order to heal myself under your rays
The truths that you clarify might be unpleasant, but unpleasant only in order to give a true understanding without any illusions
I renounce all illusions and accept your guidance humbly, not as a gift, but as a challenge to lift me above myself
You don't give direct answers, you set the path to set me in motion, to get rid of my damned laziness
Let me burn away all laziness, fear, every obstacle on the path to perfection with the fire of Prometheus
You gave me your guidance, in return you expect nothing but action
And I dedicate my actions to you Great Shepherd
May all limits be damned, let them burn bright
At the sunrise that we can't see even up close...
Due to my school blocking both the forums and the main ToZ website, I will be unable to continually post here and there will most likely be long gaps between my activity on the forums. This is truly unfortunate and I do not want to be inactive and un-participating, but there is very little I can do before I am able to acquire my own personal PC. My school provided computer was my only access to the forums and website and now that it has been taken away there is little I can do but wait. I hope I can find workarounds to this problem. I apologize for my recent inactivity and am actively searching for ways to still participate in the community.
Lots of things are happening in my personal life related to growth. I will be more active from now on. This time I swear in the name of Zeus that I will be a proper Zevist.

Latest lesson in life:
Protect your rest - Rest is as important as your goal. Give breathing room towards your goals. Instead of finishing it today, ask what's the latest this can be done without real consequence.

Protect your sleep.
Protect your time.
Be aware of everything you do at the very second—self-control, discipline, and mastery.
Kronus, Baal-Hammon, Satvrnvs, Ell
You do not rush to us in the hour of need
But walk ahead, illuminating the paths
That lead toward mistake and ruin
You grant us foresight
The quiet wisdom to avoid the fall
Truly, You sever all that is superfluous
Cutting clean with time’s inexorable blade
Your lessons etch themselves into the soul
To be remembered for a lifetime
We shall reap what we have sown
Yet, under Your cold gaze, our labors bloom tenfold returning in grace
You do not sharpen the sting of our errors
Nor make the consequences cruel
Instead, You transform each fall Into a sacred experience - that is Your silent tongue
The language through which You speak to those who ready to listen
Truly, we hear Yours voice without any sound
The Hiden Sun, that we can't see even up close


Blessed all of Yours Names


IAO KRONUS AENAOS

I believe Zeus or my Guardian directly spoke to me in my dream, the eve of Beltane.

I was with some hunters and they were going to take out a massive bull. Idk if it was a mercy kill or just natural hunting. I can remember having inner understanding as to why they were doing this. They even made sure to shoot it directly in the middle of the head for an instant kill.

Even though it was quick and painless I became very sad for the animal. As I walked I was telling myself why am I getting like this and perhaps I should shake it off.

Thats when I heard the voice of our God (or Guardian). Although I heard it in my head almost like my inner voice but it wasn't coming from me.

The voice told me to be okay to feel for this wild animal. To let it out. Feel. Empathize.

So I did. And the thoughts that flooded immediately were that of how much I yearn for animals to have a full life before it's for us to eat them.

In the bigger picture I believe my ability to empathize with other living beings and creaturea that became stunted and not correctly cultivated because of my upbringing is healing. I want the best life for every soul according to their nature and I mean this sincerely. Justice must be implemented and part of that justice also involves the above.

Maybe I should of just written this in a dream journal but seeing it is a spiritual experience I decided to share with you all.

Bless you all and may you all have the opportunity for a full life according to your own natures.

Happy Beltane 🔥
Before I found the Temple of Zeus, Lord Orpheus was the first God whose sigil I ever meditated on; he was truly my gateway to the Gods and the Mysteries. Looking back on it, that was very symbolic. I thank him dearly for this.

"Orpheus, Orphef, He Whose Music Moves All Things!

When you played, the stones wept.
When you sang, the rivers changed their course to hear you better.
The beasts of the wild lay down at your feet.
The trees uprooted themselves and walked toward you.
Even the ferryman of the dead rested his oar and listened.
Even the three-headed guardian of the Underworld lay quiet.

Even the King and Queen of the Dead were moved to mercy."

HAIL THE FOUNDER OF THE MYSTERIES!

HAIL THE MASTER OF SACRED MUSIC!
HAIL LORD ORPHEUS!
Golden age of Saturn it's not communism, equality in nature is doesn't exist.
If we consider that He compresses lead into gold, then we can understand that as a period when everyone is given the opportunity to raise the serpent from earth to heaven, where the earth it's first chakra where the black cube is being illuminated by light of gnosis.
True fridom from material prison, where the material world become the a platform for the development of the soul, not a cycle that goes on endlessly from day to day like for the rest of humanity, unfortunately...
In honor of the Ritual of Orpheus, I am re-posting this:

Hymn to Kalliope and Apollo, filmed at the birthplace of Aristotle. English translation in description.


May all our Zevist musicians be blessed and inspired to create more music 🎼

offer your help, being favorable to me!
About two years ago, I prayed sincerely to Lord Kheiron to help me quit smoking and give me the motivation and his blessing to keep clean. I remember the day I quit like it was yesterday. I was outside in my backyard, it was nighttime, and I had gone the whole day without smoking. The birds were not chirping, the leaves were not rustling, and I had the thought that I would go for a smoke and quit the next week instead of today.

Then, out of nowhere, a Great Blue Heron flew into the tree above my head! I had never seen anything like it. You don't see these kinds of birds here, let alone in your backyard. The Heron landed in a tree where the branches were shaped exactly like the Othala Rune . I was amazed and in awe. I could not ignore this great omen and knew that this would be the day I stopped smoking forever.

Two years later, I have not taken a single puff of anything, or even considered doing so. Until doing this Ritual, and finding out this God's true name, it never clicked that this blessing was from Lord Kheiron, but the phonetic similarity of Kheiron (Greek Pronunciation) and Heron made it apparent.


Additionally, the day before starting the Ritual to God Kheiron, I felt an intense calling to pursue a certification in Acupuncture, Traditional Chinese Medicine, and Herbology. It is no coincidence that this happened the day before doing the Ritual to the God of Medicine and the founder of herbology.

I just want to express my gratitude to this fantastic and wonderful God. He has blessed me and so many others beyond belief. May he be praised and blessed for all eternity.

HAIL MEGAS DIDASKALOS!

HAIL LORD KHEIRON!
El trabajo con los Dioses no es un acto meramente contemplativo; es una física espiritual. Cuando invocamos a las potencias superiores, no buscamos una evasión del mundo, sino un enraizamiento profundo en él. Los Dioses no son entidades lejanas, sino fuerzas vivas que se manifiestan a través de nuestras manos, nuestra voz y nuestras decisiones cotidianas.

La espiritualidad no es un escape, es un compromiso de manifestación. No basta con que la energía divina nos visite en un momento de éxtasis; el verdadero reto del iniciado es lograr que esa fuerza se convierta en su propia realidad biológica y tangible.

Para que la luz de lo divino no se quede en una simple visión o genere una sobrecarga energética, debemos convertirnos en seres conscientes a través de estos fundamentos:
  1. Las palabras sagradas y los términos litúrgicos son llaves maestras que sintonizan nuestra vibración con lo Divino. Al vibrarlas con precisión, reclamamos Su presencia. Sin embargo, esta energía es tan poderosa que requiere del Hatha Yoga y la disciplina física; el cuerpo debe actuar como un conductor seguro para evitar la sobreestimulación y permitir que la energía se asiente.
  2. Los Dioses operan bajo leyes de equilibrio universal. Al estudiar y adoptar Su Ética, dejamos de actuar por impulsos egoicos para convertirnos en representantes de Su voluntad. Esta ética nos impulsa a la excelencia, reflejando la perfección de lo superior en cada una de nuestras acciones.
  3. El enraizamiento ocurre cuando alineamos nuestra voluntad con la Verdad, la Justicia y la Reciprocidad. Los Dioses potencian lo que ya habita en nosotros: si eres creador, tu obra restaura la belleza; si eres protector, tu firmeza es Su justicia. El Reino se expande cada vez que utilizas tus talentos naturales y tus gustos para establecer armonía en el caos.
  4. Los Dioses son justos y reconocen nuestra naturaleza. Ser un seguidores de ellos, implica honrar nuestros ciclos, nuestro cuerpo y nuestras inclinaciones. El enraizamiento físico es, en última instancia, ejecutar la visión divina en el plano material, permitiendo que Su presencia se manifieste de forma auténtica en cada paso que damos.
Los Dioses nos inspiran a aquello que somos capaces de hacer según nuestra esencia. Nuestra labor es ser el templo donde Su voluntad se hace carne, orden y acción.

Agradezco inmensamente al Señor Osiris y la Señora Astarté por este conocimiento y la inspiración. Comprender es el primer paso para la Práctica.
Oh Saturn! Lord of time and transformation!
You're the Gardener who clears away the chaff growing around The Tree, you prune away the withering leaves, leaving it perfect, without a single flaw!
Get rid of all that unnecessary, everything that does not serve me and my prosperity well
Let anyone who goes against me not get too far
Circumcise all who's dragging me down as you circumcised Uranus, depriving him of all power over reality
Circumcise all tyrant's power upon us, all the authority that is not serve to increasing our wealth, power and happiness

You're barely destroyer, but bringer of clarity through purification
Blessed you and all of yours names
May the wicked hand of Abrahamist not bring shame upon you
They, who abuses your power without respect, embodying nothing but ignorance
Instead of Golden Age that it is you

The rest see us, they're see notning but lead
And only yours cold gaze can recognize the Gold that burden deeply inside of yours champions, guided by the wisest of your sons
Squeeze it, just like the masters squeeze the oil from olives
Thus, why you take care of the Trees in your Garden
The Titan, Hidden from all
"Nights dark beyond darkness and the days more gray each one that what had gone before. Like the onset of some cold glaucoma dimming away the world."
"You are the Guardian of Hidden Wisdom.
The Gate of Heaven knows your face; the Gate of the Abyss knows your voice.
You stand between the worlds with twin serpents coiled upon your staff,
and nothing passes that you do not permit.

Keeper of the Threshold, you hold the keys that unlock
the treasures buried beneath memory and beneath stone.
What is hidden, you reveal. What is locked, you open."

Hello brother, can I ask what was your prior forum name? I am barely keeping up with the new name changes of dedicated members. Don't want to lose track of who's who, especially when it comes to clergy.
Change begins and ends with you plain and simple, we make excuses because at times we can see our potential and worry that if we change we will lose ourselves. The truth of the matter is the change we actively pursue is the better version of ourselves calling out to us that we are finally hearing in those particular moments in our lives. If you perceive the change you actively seek to be smooth and the idea of it makes you happy, then pursue that change like your life depends on it, because it does in a sense, stagnation is death, adapt or die in the sense that the you that is possible will not come to be if you do not climb the mountain to make it happen.
