🪽Hail Hermes on Wednesday ⚕️

Wednesday moves under the quicksilver influence of Hermes, the Greek god of roads, words, trade, and cunning intelligence. In the Hellenic world, this day belonged to Hermes. He is the mover between worlds, the clever negotiator, the one who knows how to get things done.

Hermes is the son of Zeus and Maia, born at dawn in a cave on Mount Cyllene and by nightfall, he had already stolen Apollo’s cattle, invented the lyre, and bargained his way into divine favor. From the start, Hermes embodies wit over force, strategy over strength.

Ἑρμῆς ψυχοπομπός

Translation:
“Hermes, guide of souls.”

Hermes rules the crossroads literal and spiritual. As Psychopompos, he guides souls safely to the Underworld, walking paths no other god freely treads. He speaks to gods, mortals, and the dead alike, making him a master of liminality, communication, and boundary-crossing.

⚕️He carries the kerykeion (caduceus), a staff entwined with serpents, symbolizing balance, negotiation, and authority through knowledge. His winged sandals and cap mark him as ever-moving no place holds him long, and no secret stays hidden once Hermes is curious.

Hermes is also patron of merchants, travelers, thieves, scribes, and magicians. In antiquity, stone pillars called hermai stood at roadsides and doorways, offering protection, luck, and clear passage. To honor Hermes was to ensure safe travel, sharp speech, and clever outcomes.

On Wednesday, Hermes teaches the magic of words, timing, and adaptability. Knowing when to speak and how can be as powerful as any spell.

🪽Devotional Acts for Hermes ⤵️
• Offer coins, bread, honey, or incense
• Pray at crossroads or thresholds
• Write intentions, contracts, or spells involving communication
• Dedicate travel or errands to his protection
• Practice wit, learning, or negotiation

Prayer to Hermes 🗣
Hail Hermes, swift-footed guide,
Opener of roads and keeper of words.
Grant me clarity of speech and clever mind,
And safe passage through every crossing.

Óðinsdagr turns beneath the gaze of Óðinn, the One-Eyed, All-Father, god of wisdom, war, magic, and the restless search for knowledge.

Wednesday bears his name Wōdnesdæg, Óðinsdagr, a day shaped by movement of mind, word, and will.

Óðinn is not a god of comfort. He is a god of seeking, of sacrifice freely chosen, of truths won through pain and perseverance. He rules kings and outcasts alike, poets and warriors, the living and the dead. His power is not inherited, it is earned.

“Veit ek at ek hekk
vindga meiði á
nætr allar níu,
geiri undaðr
ok gefinn Óðni,
sjálfr sjálfum mér.”
- Hávamál 138

Translation:
“I know that I hung
on a wind-cold tree
nine whole nights,
wounded by a spear
and given to Óðinn,
myself to myself.”

From this sacrifice upon Yggdrasill, Óðinn won the runes, the mysteries of speech, fate, and power. This act defines him: a god who sacrifices even himself in pursuit of wisdom. There is no magic without cost, no insight without ordeal.

⚔️Óðinn is also a god of war but not brute force. He governs battle-frenzy, strategy, and fate, deciding not merely who fights, but who must fall. As Valföðr, Father of the Slain, he gathers the chosen dead into Valhǫll, where they feast and train beneath his watchful eye.

“Valhǫll heitir salr,
Óðinn á hann.”
-Grímnismál 9

Translation:
“Valhöll is the name of the hall;
Óðinn owns it.”

🐺Accompanied by his wolves Geri and Freki (the Ravenous), and his ravens Huginn (Thought) and Muninn (Memory), Óðinn sees far beyond the limits of any single world. Each day the ravens fly across the Nine Realms and return with knowledge, yet even Óðinn fears their loss.

“Huginn ok Muninn
fljúga hverjan dag
jǫrmungrund yfir;
óumk ek Huginn,
at hann aptr né komi,
þó sjámk ek meir um Munin.”
-Grímnismál 20

Translation:
“Huginn and Muninn
fly each day
over the vast earth;
I fear for Huginn
that he may not return,
though I worry more for Muninn.”

Óðinn walks the worlds disguised as a wanderer, stirring fate, testing hospitality, and whispering inspiration to poets and prophets. He is Óðr: Ecstasy, fury, inspiration itself. Where he walks, nothing remains unchanged.

🫴 Devotional Acts for Óðinn ⤵️
• Offer mead, ale, or dark bread
• Read or recite poetry, especially aloud
• Study runes, lore, or divination
• Dedicate learning gained through hardship
• Sit in silence and listen for insight

🐦‍⬛ Galdr 🗣
Hail Óðinn, One-Eyed Wanderer,
Rune-Winner, Father of Ecstasy.
Grant me courage to seek hard truths,
And wisdom earned, not given.

⚔️ Tuesday Morning: Týsdagr Devotion to Týr ⚔️

Týsdagr dawns beneath Týr, god of law, oaths, and rightful order. As morning breaks, we turn to the one-handed god whose power is not rooted in dominance, but in honor kept and words upheld.
Týr is most clearly known through the binding of Fenrir. When the gods sought to restrain the wolf whose fate threatened the worlds, it was Týr alone who placed his hand in Fenrir’s mouth as a pledge of trust. When the binding held fast, Týr lost his hand but not his honor. Through this sacrifice, cosmic order was preserved.
(Prose Edda, Gylfaginning ch. 34)

This act defines Týr’s nature. He is the god who accepts consequence willingly, who stands by law even when it demands personal loss. In earlier Germanic tradition, Týr appears to have been a primary sky and law god, closely tied to assemblies (þing), justice, and the sacred binding power of oaths reflected in his name’s connection to Tīwaz.

Unlike gods of cunning or conquest, Týr governs fairness, accountability, and courage in restraint. He reminds us that true strength lies not in winning at any cost, but in choosing what is right and standing firm once chosen.
Tuesday morning under Týr is a time to set boundaries, speak truth clearly, and move into the day with integrity. What is sworn today should be honored, and what is unjust should not be carried forward.

⚔️ “Týr is one-handed,
yet bold among the gods.”
— Poetic Edda, Hymiskviða

⚔️ Hail Týr, keeper of oaths, guardian of law, and strength of rightful action.
May our words be true and our deeds worthy. 🩸

🌙 Hail Selene, Lady of the Moon 🌙

In Hellenic myth, Selene is not a symbol or servant of lunar power: she is its living embodiment, driving her shining chariot across the heavens each night.

Ancient Greek:
Σελήνην καλέουσι θεοὶ καὶ ἄνθρωποι
— Homeric Hymn
Translation:
“Both gods and mortals call her Selene.”

Selene is the daughter of the Titans Hyperion and Theia, and sister to Helios (the Sun) and Eos (the Dawn). Together, they form a celestial triad governing the rhythm of time itself: dawn, day, and night. Where Helios illuminates the visible world, Selene governs the hidden hours, dreams, intuition, and the slow unfolding of fate.

Each night, Selene rides her luminous chariot drawn by white horses or oxen in older traditions wearing a crescent crown upon her brow. Her light was believed to influence tides, fertility, sleep, madness, and magic, and her presence was deeply tied to women’s mysteries and the measurement of months.

🩷Her most enduring myth is her love for the mortal Endymion. Enraptured by his beauty, Selene placed him into an eternal sleep so she could visit him night after night without losing him to age or death. This story is not merely romantic, it reflects the moon’s nature itself: ever watching, ever returning, never fully possessed.

🏛In ancient Greece, Selene was honored in lunar rites, agricultural calendars, and night-time prayers. She was invoked for clarity in dreams, safe travel by night, fertility of land and body, and protection during liminal hours. Her worship reminds us that the moon is not passive light, but an active, shaping force.

🌑 Devotional Acts for Selene ⤵️

• Offer milk, honey, white bread, or moon-shaped cakes
• Light a white or silver candle after sunset
• Pray or meditate beneath moonlight
• Keep dream journals or practice lunar divination
• Bathe hands or tools in moonlight for cleansing

🌙 Prayer to Selene 🗣

Hail Selene, silver-crowned queen,
Watcher of sleep and silent tides.
Shine upon my dreams and paths unseen,
And guide me through the wisdom of night.

🌙 Mánadagr Morning Devotion: Hail Máni 🌙

Mánadagr dawns beneath the gentle rule of Máni, keeper of the Moon and measurer of sacred time. As the first morning of the week opens, devotion to Máni begins in quiet presence acknowledging the god who governs cycles, tides, and the subtle turning of wyrd.

Máni was taken from Midgard and set upon his heavenly path, entrusted with the counting of nights and months. He is followed by Bil and Hjúki, whose journey reflects the Moon’s changing face and reminds us that all things move according to rhythm and return.
(Prose Edda, Gylfaginning ch. 11)

Traditional morning offerings to lunar deities in the Norse world were simple and intentional, rooted in daily life rather than excess.
For Máni, offerings are best given at dawn or while the moon is still visible in the sky:

• A bowl of fresh water or well water, honoring tides and flow

• Milk or cream, symbolizing nourishment and the Moon’s sustaining pull

• Bread, oats, or porridge, foods tied to timekeeping and daily cycles

• Silver-colored objects or coins, reflecting lunar light

• Quiet spoken devotion or silence, allowing intuition to lead

🫴Offerings may be placed near a window, outdoors, or on a simple altar and returned to the land when complete.

On Mánadagr, Máni asks us to begin the week with awareness rather than urgency. The Moon teaches that intention set gently endures longer than action forced too quickly.

🌙 “Máni heitir maðr, er tungls heitir…”
-Gylfaginning

🌙 Hail Máni, keeper of sacred time, watcher of cycles, and guide through the turning of the week.
May your light steady our hearts and align us with right timing. 🌙
