Digital Offering to Lord Apollo and Lord Asclepius

Digital Offering to Lord Apollo and Lord Asclepius

he isnt the god of the sun, so dont worry abt it lol

this is my altar btw, sits between 2 book shelves

What do other worshippers of Apollo think/feel about having their altar somewhere that isn't in sunlight? It's probably not a big deal, but part of me feels a little bad and disappointed about it.

My current plans are on a shelf of a bookcase in my room, but it's kinda in a corner so it's always a little dark over there even if my light is on and the window is open with the sun shining through. There's not any other place with enough space for the things I'd like to have for an altar, and I just feel a little bad about the only spot I can put it being kinda dark and gloomy-feeling. Any suggestions, advice or input?

My Apollon Devotional Ideas

Okay so he’s a God of light -drawings of light bulbs (silly maybe but I still like it.) -actual light bulbs ( I plan to hang some from the ceiling above his shrine along with some gold coloured spheres)

He’s a God of music so -play an instrument for him -sing a song for him -play your favorite song for him on your phone - play a song that reminds you of him -Remember those rain sticks you would make in elementary school with rice or beans on a toilet paper roll? Do it. -Make some other instrument( I’ve seen lyres on Pinterest and that’s his instrument!) - draw an instrument for Him -Learn how to play an instrument -Write a song or hymn for him

He’s a God of poetry so -write him a poem -Learn about his history and epithets -dedicate some poem you like to him -learn how to write better poems for him -I wanna say you could read ancient poetry or even hymns for him

He’s a God of prophecy so -Do some divination -spend some time getting familiar with your divination tools -Talk to him through some divination -learn a new method of divination -Learn about his Oracle’s

He’s an archer so - you could learn how to shoot bows -You could create some arrows out of wood -Collect arrowheads -Draw pictures of bows or arrows -Make devotional jewelry with arrows

He’s a twin to the Goddess Artemis, so - learn about his sister -Learn about his mom, Leto -you could do devotional work for his sister -Write cute poems or sing nice songs for his sister or momma -Research things they did together

Basically there’s all kinds of cool stuff you can do so get crazy get some cool ideas and go for it
