easy (and free) devotional activities

I know one of the biggest problems I had when I was getting into paganism was finding ways to honor the deities I wanted to with no money, so here’s some ideas of general things you can try out for any deity!

E-shrines
You may have seen these on tumblr before. A lot of pagans on tumblr keep e-shrines, which tend to be aesthetic-based sideblogs. If you have a lot of deities in your personal worship, you could make a tag for each with things you feel they’d enjoy. I’ve also seen people do them using Pinterest boards!

Playlists
Music is a pretty traditional offering! So if you’re looking for a simple way to make an offering, this is probably the cheapest and most accessible. Whether the mix is on your phone, YouTube, or a mix site, it’s a fun offering to make if you ask me. Try thinking of songs that remind you of the deity, or songs about things related to them.
Moodboards
In the same vein as e-shrines, moodboards are fairly common on tumblr in general and you see lots for various deities. Even if you aren’t a master at aesthetics, it’s still a good thing to try out as it gives you a chance to get more familiar with your deities associations.
Living in the name of your deity
I left this for last because it’s kind of a cheesy thing to say. I know I roll my eyes when Christians say this since so few actually seem to practice it. But really, it’s a true thing. Think of what your deity stands for, and how they would want to see one of their worshippers or devotees.
