Hail Apollon Panderkes Omma, the All-Seeing Eye which brings the light which shines on mortals, I adore You.

Hail Apollon Cydimus Kouros, Renowned Son of Zeus, I Adore You.

Courage consists not in hazarding without fear; but being resolutely minded in a just cause.

Plutarch

With confidence then approach the gods as counsellors, and further, when the counsel is given you, remember whose counsel it is, and whom you will be disregarding if you disobey.

Epictetus

When you are offended at any man's fault, turn to yourself and study your own failings. Then you will forget your anger.

Divination Fundraiser, and Lunar Rites Reminder

Tonight is the Deipnon. This is the day of monthly home-cleaning and self-purification, and the night when one makes offerings (of which they do not partake) to the ancestors and to Hekate. It is also the best day of the lunar month for divination, and it is an ancient tradition to perform divination for the new year.

This year, I am going to perform divination for those who make a fully tax-deductible donation of $15+ to the Temple. My preferred method of divination is I Ching, but I am also trained in Tarot, Futhark, and Ogham. Unless you have a particular preference, I will provide I Ching divination. If you have deep, burning questions about your personal or spiritual life or about the nature of things, or if you are curious about your future or outcomes of the next year, this is the service for you. I will perform the divination at the hour of sunrise Monday morning on the lunar day of the Deipnon just before the New Year, a triply propitious time to perform this work on the most powerful planetary hour and planetary day possible to perform it.

You must donate within the next 19 hours (before 7:30 a.m. EDT on Monday) if you would like to receive this service at the most propitious time of the year. The next propitious time will be chosen for those who donate after this time.

Donate at https://otnr.net/donate/ for the Custom Amount $15 or greater, and check the box "Write us a comment," leaving the comment:
"For Divination by I Ching/Futhark/Tarot (choose one). My question is "What will/would be the outcome of ___? Please send fortune to [First and Last Name] at [email address]."

Hail Apollon, Master of Many Forms, I Adore You.

Apollo
By: Giovanni Andrea Sirani

Chase after money and security
And your heart will never unclench.
Care about people's approval
And you will be their prisoner.
Do your work, then step back.
The only path to serenity.

Lao Tzu

Hail Apollon Mælioukhos týrannæ, Who rules with sweetness, I adore You.

...the inventor of the blessings of music was not a man, but one graced with every virtue, the God Apollo. ... Thus music is in every way a noble pursuit, being an invention of the Gods.

Plutarch

Hail Apollon Erasmius, lovely, I adore You.
