For anyone who has experienced trauma from alcohol (alcoholic parent, etc), some parts of the ritual of Dionysus may have made you wonder why it's in there. This ritual does not promote any of that.

I understand that some of you may feel an aversion to this ritual for that reason, please be assured that this ritual has nothing to do with alcoholism or drunkenness.

I myself never touch alcohol as I am disgusted by the evils that have been caused by alcohol through history (not in my family thankfully). But this is my own personal choice. For those of you who do enjoy drinking alcohol that is perfectly fine, please make sure to be responsible though.

We are now entering the final few weeks of Jupiter in Cancer! This coming Thursday and next are the last 2 opportunities to begin its square.

Everyone who is doing tarot for others: This is fine to practice, but make sure you all know if you are new and inexperienced and don't put too much stock into readings. I have been doing tarot for longer than I've been a Zevist, I know how crucial it is to have life experience and wisdom to do readings. If you're young (under 30 but especially under 25), you simply do not have the maturity and life experience to give accurate readings, no matter how psychic you may be. So always be careful when giving or receiving readings

Tomorrow is a Full Moon in Sagittarius. This is a great time to begin a working for money, health, education, or anything relating to White magick. Make sure to check for the VoC which begins 4.5 hours after the height of the full phase.

"A person who can make their point with composure and precision demonstrates greater mastery than one who relies on crudeness. The ability to remain civil under pressure is a mark of inner strength, not weakness.
[...]
Courtesy within the community builds the trust upon which all shared endeavour depends. Rudeness without cause is entropy: small, unnecessary Izfet introduced into the social fabric for no gain.
[...]
Speak freely. Speak honestly. Speak with force when force is needed. But when you can choose between a crude word and a precise one, choose the precise one. It cuts deeper."

-Life Ethics: Politeness and Conduct

We have a lot of full-day Void of Course Moons lately. This is due to the position of the planets being mostly on early degrees. The Moon goes VoC after it's last major aspect to another planet.

So be mindful to check for the VoC any time you plan on beginning something new. For phone apps such as iLuna, make sure to double-check the dates, as they don't show the red VoC if the Moon is VoC for more than the entire day (beginning on one date and lasting through a second date into a third date), due to poor programming.

For more information regarding the VoC Moon:

V. The Temple of Zeus

The Temple of Zeus exists for one specific purpose. The Temple is the cultivation house for Theophoroi. It is the place where souls who want to undertake the work of becoming God-bearers can find the materials, the methods, the lineage, the rituals, and the company of others who have committed to the same work.

[...]

The Temple of Zeus operates under the same principle. We help. We respect. We welcome. The doctrine, the practice, the ritual, the lineage are decided by those who carry them. The cultivation is offered to all. The decisions belong to the cultivated.

-Theophoric People & Andrapoda, by High Priest Zevios Metathronos

Unless we get a new God ritual schedule, we can perform Lord Set's ritual from May 15-20.

Everyone who has problems logging in to VT from your phone, this is what I figured out because the instructions given did not work for my phone.

1. Open Element Classic app

2. Manually change "matrix.org" to "t.vultustemplorum.org"

3. Use your associated email address to log in, not your username (username didn't work for me).

4. Enter your password [Note: some members say they had to press "forgot password", I didn't have to. It let me log in smoothly.]

5. There will be a prompt to check your email for a 6-digit code

7. Type in that code

8. Accept Element to connect with t.vultustemplorum (otherwise it won't work)

9. Now you are in!


These are all the steps I remember, if there are more please let me know so I can edit this.

Greetings sister Hps Lydia Could you please help kn regards to the Financial Safety and Protection ritual words of powers formation please

My reply to a post:

Medicine and proper medical practices save lives. With a lot of spiritual advancement we can help with healing, but the required amount of advancement and energy needed is far beyond the practical scope of the vast majority of people. Nobody should delay medical intervention thinking they can meditate the illness away.

The ancients had medicine and surgery, even with their knowledge of spiritual practices.

Happy Mother's Day to all Zevista mothers

Until we get a new God Ritual schedule, we can perform the ritual of Lord Kheiron, as it is now His week (May 5-9).

"For the goal is not to lose oneself in the process of improving the world, but to also improve oneself and others as part of this greater and eternal world."

“It is only by improving the world that you will improve yourself. It is only by improving yourself that you will improve the world, for infinity can only flow back into infinity.”

Your new name is truly beautiful, HPS. I'm sure it reflects the true essence of your soul.

I love your new name High Priestess. It is very enchanting!

This is beautiful name HPS.

Regards, our beautiful mother and teacher.

You have a beautiful new name my Dear High Priestess

"Empedocles, five centuries before Proclus, already taught that advanced souls are daimones themselves. In Fragment B146 (DK), he wrote:

"At the end they become prophets, poets, healers, and leaders among earthly men, and from there they blossom forth as Gods highest in honour."
Empedocles, Fragment B146 (Diels-Kranz)"

-From Eudaimonia: The End Goal of Zevism

Interesting how these days, people even here tend to only care about leaders and being a leader. There are other areas that many are destined to become...

"Eudaimonia is the soul flowering into its fullest human capacity.
Godhead is the soul recognising that its fullest capacity is divine."

What a beautiful name addition High Priestess! Thank you for everything you do.

Another beautiful sacred God Ritual completed. Thank you everyone who participates.

"Guard the boundaries of the Temple of Zeus.
Let no trespasser cross unchallenged.
Let no enemy encroach upon our land, our homes, or our sacred spaces.
Guard the boundary between what is ours and what is not,
and let that boundary be firm, just, and inviolable."

-Silvanus's Power Ritual

Everyone, this Beltane night, there is a Full Moon in Scorpio. Super powerful! Take the time now to plan what you want to do.

Here is a very brief summary of each Pathology with the image of each prayer, designed as a quick and easy reminder for when you are performing these. I also hyperlinked each one so you can read the full page for each.

We see this so often. Knowing leads to understanding, understanding leads to the way out of this vicious cycyle:

"A population under perpetual threat of war cannot focus upon the development of consciousness, the pursuit of knowledge, the cultivation of the spirit, or the advancement of civilization. It is locked at the level of survival: the base chakra, the Muladhara, the consciousness of mere physical existence, fighting for life, fighting for food, fighting for shelter.

This is the intended effect. Spiritual advancement requires peace, time, stability, and access to knowledge. The Varvarim destroy all four. A human being who spends his entire short life fleeing from one war to the next has no time to meditate. A woman who loses her children to religious violence has no space to contemplate the Divine. A people whose libraries have been burned have no access to the accumulated wisdom of their ancestors.

The Yehubor profits from this condition because a population trapped in base consciousness cannot perceive the manipulation under which it lives. It cannot question. It cannot examine the scriptures critically. It cannot compare traditions. It cannot recognize that the God invoked by its oppressors bears no resemblance to the actual Divine. It can only obey, suffer, and die, and in dying confirm the evil priesthood's claim that this world is merely a vale of tears to be endured before the promised paradise or the “second coming.”"

I was asked what to do to prepare for the ritual of Nemesis. My reply:

If any of you have doubts as to whether or not you should participate, know that we are all supposed to participate for this schedule. You are joining me and my energy for this.

Keep your mind open to receiving guidance that will help your personal growth. Do not expect harsh criticism, but know our Gods love us and want what is best for us.

If any of you feel guilty about anything, you can pay your dues, repay your debt. Spend time being a beneficial influence in our community here and in the forums, donate if you are able to, send positive energy to a Zevist who might need it (keep it generalized, not necessarily to a specific person but ask your GD to guide it to someone who needs it).

"You are the memory of the Cosmos.
Every deed is recorded in your ledger. Every act is weighed upon your scales.
Restore the equilibrium that the enemies of the Gods have shattered.
Let what was tilted be levelled. Let what was stolen be returned.
The scales will be even. This is certain. This is law."
-Ritual of Nemesis

What I love about these Liturgical Terms of Zevism, is how completely perfect they are. Perfection in etymology, description, everything. Reading these causes a deep resonance in the mind attuning it for mental clarity and therefore inner peace.

This was Holy and sacred work indeed

Everyone, I receive a lot of DMs, or see questions or posts in the forums, that make it clear so many of you have blockages in your upper chakras. Read my post about chakras for how to overcome these blockages, and I have another post I'm working on. New mantras too, I have tested with SG Voice of Enki and NG Persephone, our High Priest approved them to be put in the ToZ.

Add your recipes to our Recipe thread! I'll be adding more over the coming days, as will other members, so keep checking back there

"The Modern Media Atibilibil. In the present age, Atibilibil has evolved beyond the priesthood and into the apparatus of information itself. The mixing of truth and falsehood in global media, the algorithmic amplification of confusion, the deliberate production of contradictory narratives, and the suppression of historical knowledge through educational systems that teach obedience rather than inquiry are the contemporary forms of Atibilibil. The modern citizen is not forbidden to read; he is drowned in so much adulterated information that he can no longer distinguish what is worth reading. This is not an accident. Fake news and the dilution of truth by the news are a modern force of Atibilibil."
[...]

"Breaking the cycle requires intervention at the root: not at the level of the individual lie, for there are too many, not at the level of the individual Yehubor, for he will be replaced, but at the level of Atibilibil itself. The confusion must be dissolved. The water must be clarified. The mind must be given the tools to distinguish truth from falsehood independently of any priesthood, any institution, or any tradition.

This is why Zevism places meditation, direct spiritual experience, and independent study at the center of its practice: because the only antidote to Atibilibil is the restoration of the individual’s capacity to perceive truth directly, without intermediary, without Atibilibil, and without the adulterated waters of false religion."
[...]

"The purpose of naming Atibilibil is to liberate its victims by giving them the word for the condition that imprisons them. A prisoner who does not know he is in a prison cannot seek escape. A mind under the influence of Atibilibil that has no name for its condition cannot begin to dissolve it."

-Liturgical Terms, Pathologies: Atibilibil

The etymology of the liturgical terms helps to learn what they mean:

"The Greek Root: Ἄτη (Ate)
The first element, ATI, derives from the Greek Ἄτη (Ate), the primordial personification of ruinous delusion. In Homer (Iliad 19.91–131), Zeus himself declares that Ate blinded even him, and in his wrath he seized her by the hair and cast her from Olympus, swearing that she should never return. She fell not into oblivion but upon the earth, where she walks among mortals and blinds them. Ate does not produce simple ignorance; she produces the specific condition in which the victim believes his blindness is sight, his confusion is clarity, and his imprisonment is freedom. This is the precise theological content of the first element: Atibilibil begins with the force of divinely expelled delusion, the blindness so complete that it does not know itself as blindness.

Hesiod places Ate among the children of Eris (Strife), alongside Ponos (Toil), Lethe (Oblivion), and Pseudea (Lies). The genealogy is itself a description of the mechanism: Strife gives birth to Delusion, which walks with Oblivion and Lies. This is the family of Atibilibil: it is born of conflict, accompanied by forgetting, and sustained by falsehood."

Read here to understand the rest of the word: Liturgical Terms, Pathologies: Atibilibil

"The Phonological Structure
The reduplicated form BIL-I-BIL intensifies the root. The phonetic repetition mirrors the psychological reality of the condition. The mind caught in Atibilibil goes round and round, trapped in a loop of adulterated information from which it cannot escape because it no longer possesses the tools to distinguish truth from falsehood. The mind is doing a “Bil-Bil,” with ATI being the state it produces.

The liquid /l/ between bilabial stops /b/ produces the sensation of something thick and viscous being churned: bil-bil sounds like the stirring of mud, the mixing of clean water with dirt.

Atibilibil is the confusion that feeds itself, the cycle that cannot be broken from within."


These words are perfectly chosen by our High Priest to describe exactly what they indicate.

Transform the enmity that surrounds the Temple of Zeus.
Where there is hatred against us, dissolve it.
Where there is misunderstanding, replace it with clarity.
Where there are enemies who might yet become friends, open their eyes.
Let your golden warmth melt what cold hearts have hardened.

-Hathor's Ritual

"In Zevism, Birburim denotes the active practice of the Yehubor: the utterance of systematic falsehoods against the Gods, the desecration of the Divine Names, and the deployment of religious lies as instruments of spiritual warfare against all who stand outside the circle of the self-proclaimed "elect." If the Yehubor is the condition, then Birburim is the conduct.
[...]
The "religion" of the Yehubor will always engage in Birburim as both its foundation and its survival strategy. Without Birburim, the Yehubor cannot maintain its nexus of lies.
[...]
The recognition, identification, and naming of Birburim is itself an act of spiritual purification.

Once identified, it becomes what it always was: the braying of a hollow vessel, the barbarous noise of a mouth that has forgotten how to speak the language of the Gods."
