Hello,

I’ve been ruminating about the terrible fate of Pentheus in The Bacchae and wondered if Dionysus ever prompted you (the reader) to ravish a man in a similar manner but sexually. In other words, is divine madness violent, necessarily? Or is there another way?

Sitting here drinking a cocktail, and got some gummies and munchies ready to go for later.

Anyone else celebrating?

My main problem is the nsfw bits especially penis’ as it is hard to find a reference because nudity in modern society is Taboo and overly sexualized so if you have any tips please let me know

Hello! I have a question that’s fairly NSFW, and I wanted to ask here as this subreddit was linked in the r/hellenism subreddit rules about NSFW content.

I’ve recently been looking into Hellenism, and one thing that I’m struggling to make sense of it the foreskin within Ancient Greek culture and beliefs, along with modern Hellenism. As far as I understand, the Greeks abhorred circumcision as it disrespected the natural body. The issue is that, being from the US, I am very unfortunately circumcised. I can’t help but feel like I’d be a poser, worshipping gods from a culture that abhorred what I myself have. What are your thoughts?

Thank you

As mentioned in previous posts, I spend time in the shower to pray to lord Dionysios. But today, things got a little extra spicy.

I took nudes of myself (for my eyes only hehe!) and masturbated to them. I'm very proud of my appearence, and devoted the whole act to Dionysios.

I was also praying to lady aphrodite for helping me love myself alongside Dionysios. but honestly... I was having too much fun to remember to pray 😅

My butt looked too cute for me to resist finishing myself to it... It felt amazing as always.

Got out of the shower, poured myself a quick glass of wine and ate, then slept.

I had a very sexually charged dream where I had sex with someone I know in person. The dream stopped as soon as I began playing with her pussy. A dream that is surely a gift from the gods for my devotional act.

Also I'm looking on apps for a few hookups near me sometime. Gods wish me luck!

(I wish this sub was more active, I think it might.)

Luvvv you all 💖💖💖🍆💦

I took some photos in this tree not too long ago. It was before I started my journey with Dionysos but I believe he's blessed me since birth.

Always been a nonbinary wild thing. I love taking naked photos in nature. I feel like He is why I'm so connected to my Divine Masculine.

I'm "mad" too. But I've been embracing that and transmuting it. This has been a beautiful journey. I'm so grateful that He's now part of it. To have someone I can lean into in that way.

I have not been "alone" in my spiritual journey, not by a long shot. However each relationship really is different. The one I have with Dio something I cannot put into words.

This was not meant to be a ramble but if you read this, thank you!

Iobacchus! Verrry new here,and recent convert. I’ve been feeling a call to Him in all his gloriously gay aspects lately and well, forever I suppose and I want to build praxis, especially with Pride ahead.

When I’m about to step out for a fun hookup with a fine genderbending partner (be it a date, hangout or whatever) I would love to be able to honor him appropriately, offer all of the fun and pleasure to his greater glory and overall revel in his androgynous and queer aspects. Short of a joint ritual (goooods I wish!), a prayer before/during/after or an offering perhaps?

I would love to hear any and all thoughts (please!) Or better, experiences, prayers of your own, ideas, anything and everything!

Had a very long week at work, and I needed to recenter with a day of mindless fun.

My lady and I spent yesterday in more rural areas of Michigan on the wine trail. After a LONG winter the trees were blooming, and it was beautiful.

So we had a lot of wine. Some of it was meh, some of it was great. But we both hailed Bacchus over a glass of wine and thanked him for the gift of fermented grape.

Later at home I popped two indica edibles and slept like a baby.

I now feel rested and recentered. Io Bacchus!

No judgements here. Just curious.

Do you use any "substances" which may or may not be legal, either for recreational or for religion/spirituality/occult?

I do cannabis in the form of edibles (it's a legalized, rather booming industry where I live), but simply never had interest in anything else. 🤷

First thing I'll tell you is that I got home safely from the night out.

On St. Patrick's Day. I went out to a show at a local punk venue with my roommate and our friend and it was a beautiful show of trans rage and we had a pretty good time at first. Then things got weird and fucked up. It's taken me until this week to piece everything together. During the show I set my drink down on a little ledge by my seat and got up to dance and I think somebody slipped something into my drink. Though honestly the thought hadn't occurred to me until it was my psychiatrist that suggested it. I have spent the last month feeling like that night was chopped up into weird pieces where I just felt too intoxicated and fucked up for how much I consumed and really messed up. I was really distressed and I couldn't communicate well and I use a walker when I have to walk for more than say 100 ft. So walking home didn't quite feel like an option for me and so I felt trapped in this venue that was loud and chaotic where I became convinced that people were upset with me and something was just deeply wrong. But I couldn't say the right things and my speech was slurred. But I'm disabled. I get migraines that sometimes make my speech slurred and so I thought I'd just smoked too much weed and triggered a migraine. My friends were pretty helpful. They sat me down and got me some fries and we eventually walked home. I'm really glad that I made it home safely and I am thankful to the ways that Dionysus protected me in an active way that night and in the ways that Dionysus protected me in an inactive way by all of the ways that I've ritualistically used substances intentionally and pressed the boundaries in my mind of how they felt and really known how they affect me and used those things for a set purpose.... I think that really helped me feel more in control and remain more grounded when this happened to me.

In August of last year I lost my sister Saiorse to an accidental overdose. There's a lot of things that I'm processing with all of this. It's not just the things that happened to my body but I have all of these memories of trying to help my sister through the things that she was going through and the things that were going on in her mind as she wrestled with drugs and I've had a new experience that is opening up my eyes to the way my sister experienced life in a new way. For all of the harm reduction, ideas, and ideals that I tried to have and I thought I had before I see with this experience at least here I was lacking. I was lacking a true understanding of her.

So I'm holding these two things. The grief of my sister, the new layers of compassion and the view and peer into her life because of the experience that I had from the confusion that I experienced that I watched her also go through over and over..... And then just fucking processing having gone through that.

Feeling a little unsteady. Feeling a little crazy. Send me your love and your deepest thoughts 🫶
