Devotions to Athena

I feel like my connection to Athena is not being maintained enough. I’m working on writing a weekly ritual Adoration of Athena to re-commit myself to Her weekly. While I’m at it, I’m thinking about doing a monthly devotion to Anubis. I could do divination at that time, too.

 

In Your Name, Athena

 

How can I serve You Athena?

My Goddess fair, owl-eyed Daughter of Zeus

How can I serve You, Athena?

In the school, in the city, in the world

How may I set Your example?

 

In Your name, Athena

I volunteer my time to help others

I fight for justice for my brothers

As You are a Goddess of Community

So I seek to better mine.

 

In Your name, Athena

I strive to learn Your lessons

To learn from everyone I meet

As You are a Goddess of Wisdom,

So I seek to gain it.

 

In Your name, Athena

I stand up to be counted

I name myself “Pagan”, so I may educate

As You are a Goddess of Truth,

So I strive to be truthful.

 

In Your Name, Athena

I create beauty from within me

Spilling ink, my heart’s blood, upon the page

As You are a Goddess of all Arts,

So I endeavor to create.

 

In Your name, Athena,

I serve as Your Priestess

May I be marked as one of Yours

A child of Pallas Athene

For now and all time.

    Being a daughter of a funeral director I always was attracted to Annubis becuase he is the god of embalming and funeral rites. but Athena is My Girl.

    1. Oh Athena will always be my patroness, but Anubis has come on very strong. In fact, he’s taken over all my spirit-work.
