Author:
Publisher: Llewellyn Publications
Edition/Volume: N/A
Front Cover:
Link to purchasable E-Version:
Book Description:
Build a Life-Affirming Relationship with the Lord of the Dead
My name is more often spoken with revile than gratitude or adoration. If only the living could see the power of their veneration.…Why would they not want to see the home of their ancestors thrive?
Aides. Aidoneus. The Unseen One. Known by many monikers, Hades is one of the most recognizable yet misunderstood Greek gods. Through myth, storytelling, and practical exercises, Jamie Waggoner shows you how Hades is more than the keeper of souls and the land of the dead. She reveals his true nature and provides everything you need to develop your unique devotional practice.
Discover Hades' real story with passages written in his own words, excerpts from historical texts, and Jamie's personal experiences. Cultivate sacred interactions with him through rituals, trance journeys, altar tending, and other magical activities. With Hades' wisdom, you will develop a deep appreciation for the glorious spectrum of experience we can have in this mortal lifetime.
Personal Interest Summary: Recently, through a divinatory reading, I've discovered he not only is interested in working with me but also extended a offer of patronage. Regardless of how or why I've peaked his interest, as far as personalities go, he is one of the least grating spirits that have expressed interest in working with me. It's something I'm personality interested in exploring, but aside from building a altar to commuune with him, plus the myths we've all heard of... not much information exists out there about him. I found out about this book not long after I had the reading and that can't be a coincidence. Technically I don't need it as I already have The Orphic Hymns. That only explains how to contact him though and doesn't really provide much more information. The Greeks feared him as they feared death.... and seldom spoke is name out aloud. Thus is cult traditionally was never really that big. His most famous temple where people would travel too hear the supposed oracular prophecies of the deceased... was located under what modern archeologist think was someone's old barn that later became a larger temple complex.. kinda funny and sad. Regardless if any more information exists out there... even UPG... I'm all for hearing it. End of Personal Interest Summary
