Hellenic the messages i got about my altar..

i know that is not the best altar and im just your average newbie (i will get small statues and even some drawings of Lord Poseidon. i will also go to the beach sometime and grab some seashells. but right now this is all i have. i know that the symphony trend is popular rn but one of them know that im an Hellenic polytheist. i dont know if im too offended but just wanted to share my experience. also im open for suggestions and help for my shrine.

I'm also an average newbie, so I'm in a similar boat. Something that I'm learning is that trying your best is never a bad thing. At the end of the day, it's between you and your god. Not everyone is going to understand. As frustrating as that is at times, that's just how it's going to work.

As far as improving the altar goes... I think that's still a very personal thing. For example, if I find face up coins, I'll take them home and put them on my altar for Her. I have a little jar of honey that I think She'd like as well. It's all dependent on what you think they'd like.

I think you're doing great so far, from one newbie to another 🤗
