This is a non-fictional manuscript which describes a Greek Mythology based form of witchcraft. I wrote this manuscript twenty years ago. I have only made changes to the introduction the material may be somewhat antiquated.
Anyone interested in a spiritually motivated form of witchcraft may adapt these rituals to their own personal mythology. I encourage you to feel free to change these rituals as you desire to match your own mythology and practice of witchcraft.
This style of witchcraft is open to all races, cultures, and gender preferences.

Amora's Odyssey ✅
After a devastating war between the gods and goddesses of Olympus, the goddesses emerge victorious, ushering in a new era. With Hera as Queen of Olympus, all traces of men are wiped from the Greek world, and a matriarchal society rises. A century later, Aphrodite, the Goddess of Love, grows curious about this transformed mortal world and descends to explore. What begins as a simple act of curiosity leads her to fall deeply in love with Kassandra, the Queen of Sparta, and together they have a daughter, Amora. Amora, born of both divine and mortal blood, carries within her the potential to shape the fate of the Greek world. But her unique lineage also makes her a target. At the age of ten, threats from enemies both mortal and divine force her parents to send her away, hiding her on a secluded island far from Sparta. Now grown and trained as a warrior, Amora sets out on a journey across the Greek world. Driven by a desire to reunite with her parents and uncover the truth of her destiny, she must navigate a world filled with political intrigue, divine rivalries, and looming war. As she searches for the key to saving her fractured world, Amora discovers that her greatest challenge lies in accepting the power-and responsibility-that comes with her extraordinary heritage. - HIGHEST RANKINGS #82 IN FANTASYADVENTURE #61 IN GREECEComplete
The Butterfly
In mythology, a butterfly symbolizes fire; it is associated with a moth to a flame. In ancient Greece, the butterfly symbolized the soul's prominence over the body and the profound changes it brings. In Shamanism, a butterfly is a symbol. A white butterfly represents goodness, a black butterfly represents sadness, and a yellow butterfly represents illness. A blue butterfly symbolizes pure spirit. This is the story of an ordinary person living a monotonous life. This is the story of how an ordinary person's life can change in an instant. Question your beliefs, because the greatest adventures begin with believing in the most incredible things. Persuaded to fight as representatives of the gods in their war for dominion over the Earth, the 10 young people gathered in a house where they would learn the finer points of war and being a good soldier, and develop the talents bestowed upon them by the gods who chose them to take part in this war. - We wrote this book series with my sister 10 years ago, we published it on Wattpad, and it was published by a publishing house in Turkey. I translated the book myself from Turkish to English, and since it is my second language, there might be some mistakes in writing. I hope you can pardon my mistakes and enjoy the story.
Flowers and Shadows
Hades and Persephone is a story that has so many different sides to it. Some people romanticize their relationship (often without taking into account certain aspects of the myth) while others insist that Hades was nothing but perverse and awful... even though taking Persephone, after having her father's permission, was quite normal for the time! This is a retelling of the ancient myth, with all the ancient components to it. I researched the story from many different sources and tried to make it as accurate as possible. The only writer's license was the amount of time she spent in the Underworld before Hermes came-- I never found an exact number, so I wrote it as six months, partly so that they had time to truly fall for each other, partly so that she would return to the mortal realm immediately after being returned to Demeter. Persephone is a character who understands the place goddesses and women have in the world, understands the normalcy of her capture, but still struggles with feeling like it's unjust. Hades is a god with few romantic relationships in his past (Leuce and Minthe) who hadn't fallen for anyone for a while and wasn't quite sure how to treat a goddess in a realm he never visited. This is the story.Complete
Olympus Drive Book 1: Everything is Fine
Recently freed members of a cult search for their missing members. Everything is not as it seems in Winfell, where six children disappeared under mysterious circumstances, only for four them to be found ten years later telling strange stories of monsters and the Underworld, with no explanation for where they've been. Or what happened to two of them. Suffice to say nothing is fine. *** Reasons to read the Olympus Drive Series 1. LGBTQ rep throughout 2. Happy endgame gays/lesbians and polyamory as well asexuality and grey aces 3. Lots of references to Greek/Roman Mythology 4. Trans, genderfluid, and non-binary characters with arcs that don't revolve around their sexuality 5. Plenty of happy/positive relationships 6. But your favorite ship WILL be a 10,000 year old space alien and an undead detective 7. All dark/heavy topics are addressed or resolved in a positive manner 8. Postive female friendships and romantic relationships, without cheating 9. Essentially any relationship structure or sexuality you can think of comes up at one point or another 10. The queen of the dead gets a sword forged from blood Trigger Warning: Some violence and creature violence. Mild peril. Fantasy violence throughout. Extensive injuries shown. Brief fantasy violence (a character is shot point blank but we know the character cannot be injured, that type of thing). Peril to child characters throughout, though it is fantasy peril. Content Warning: Profanity throughout. Sex/sexuality discussed at length, at an R rated level though little is shown. Oh and...in case the tags didn't give it away there's heavy references to Greek mythology, therefore only like one character is actually straight.Complete![Little Saint Bride [Death and the Maiden, #1]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/37493976-256-k86754.jpg)

One night with Death, and Nerissa will be granted half his power...and the ability to find her brother's killer. ...SHE HAS ONE MONTH TO OUTSMART DEATH. Despite their increasing attraction to one another, her husband insists on keeping her in the dark.

Hades and Persephone
Persephone has already been kidnapped by Hades, her unwanted and unexpected suitor. Demeter has already cast a famine on all the humans in her grief. Hades struggles to win Persephone over...but perhaps Persephone has always been meant to be with him, and she wasn't an innocent as she was thought she was... Moderate explicit parts. *not finished* "Look, Persephone, you're a reasonable Goddess, more reasonable than most. You have to understand I was not born the Lord of the Underworld. The title was appointed to me because I was the unlucky one. My job is just as important as my brother's jobs. I wasn't selected because of my cruel ways but now because of the way people speak of me and fear me now I am the cruel one whether or not I like it. Do you honesty think it is fair that it should work that way? People take one look at me and assume I'm the devil." Persephone crouches back in her seat. I realize I am standing and seat myself, trying to calm myself. "Do you honestly think that being in charge of the dead and judging them makes me undeserving of love, of a wife? I'm doomed to be exiled down here. I don't even have the sun to keep me warm, Persephone. You're all the sun I have..." *This story is also not meant to be factually accurate, and is simply an interpretation of the story.Complete
