Noumenia

Noumenia is celebrated when the moon's first sliver is view-able in the sky, and marks the beginning of the traditional Hellenic month. On this day all of the household gods are honored, as well as the spirit of your ancestors. This day is also a great day to begin or reaffirm any vows or oaths one has taken.

The hymns and rituals called upon this day depends on which Gods and Goddesses you work with one a regular purpose.  You can create a ritual which includes all of them, or honor each individual deity
separately, making sure to take a moment to connect with each one of them.

Libations are traditionally poured, which can be wine, milk and/or honey.

Please note that at this Shrine we do not follow a Hellenistic calendar. Our main focus is our Lady Hecate, while working with other Gods and Spirits of our choosing. This day is a celebration to touch bases with all of them, and will be in the future a day of gathering, once our physical Shrine location is completed for visitors.
