Administrator Amulet Posted July 13, 2017 Administrator Report Share Posted July 13, 2017 Intentionally or unintentionally, what items do you own that broadcast your belief system publicly? For example, a pendant or bracelet with a charm on it such as a cross, a pentacle or a reiki symbol, a Darwin fish on your car, shirts or other clothing or jewelry? I have japa/ mala bead bracelets that I wear but they are kept under long sleeves. I would not wear the bracelets if I was wearing short sleeves. I wear a pendant with a symbol that few people would know how it is interpreted. Nothing on my car. My home is also fairly discreet. You?

cuchulain Posted July 13, 2017 Report Share Posted July 13, 2017 I think the closest thing for me would be a bumper sticker that says live long and prosper...the Vulcans of Star Trek were based on the stoics. But really, I don't think that too many people would go that far in their thinking when they saw it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeopardBoy Posted July 14, 2017 Report Share Posted July 14, 2017 I don't own any jewelry at this point that contain symbols of my religion. I have thought about getting a tattoo of Poseidon's trident or Hestia's flame. I haven't decided which. My home is a different matter. I have a collection of statuary that I utilize in worship, and two openly displayed shrines that contain offering bowls and candles. One I keep in devotion to the domestic gods, and the other to Herakles and Hebe. A project I have in the works is an outdoor altar to Zeus Herkeios (protector of the fence/boundary) in my backyard, which would be visible to passersby through the fence. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmberLF Posted July 17, 2017 Report Share Posted July 17, 2017 (edited) I don't wear a lot of jewelry. On occasion I do wear a pendant related to Hekate and wear a small, thin pinky ring with a tiny little pentacle on it. It isn't usually noticed even in this very christian farming down in the bible belt. I usually save them for related activities or gatherings. At home I keep a household altar that is fairly modest and benign. The only thing that might even get attention is a small statuette that is a modern depiction of Hekate. The rest of the house is pretty secular and comfortable. Unless someone wanders into my kitchen/dining area directly they might not even notice it.

Moderator Rev. Calli Posted July 23, 2017 Moderator Report Share Posted July 23, 2017 Greetings to you my brother, I wear a simple wooden cross pendant, but typically only on the days I conduct the worship services at my church. In solidarity, Rev. Calli Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
