Simple questions about The Morrigan

Hi guys! I am an eclectic pagan and I worship a few deities (Lady Hathor, Archangel Uriel, Lord Apollo, Lord Freyr, and most recently the Morrigan) I have found it hard to find answers to these questions and I need help. Some background is I did a deity conformation and The Morrigan came up so my questions are:

  1. What do I call her for worship? What I mean is for example how when referring to a male deity you use Lord or lady for female. ( I haven’t heard anyone using one of these)

  2. Are her followers bad people? Many people say that since a lot of her worshippers are spunky that they are mean but I try to be nice to people who deserve it.

  3. Is she kind in experiences? This makes me sound like a baby but I’m used to kind and comforting gods and I am really scared that she will hate me. I know she is obviously stern and uses tough love to help and change you but I’m young and sensitive so it scares me.

  4. Does she need more respect than my other gods? Obviously I treat my deities with the utmost respect but I like to talk to them or move their statues off the altars because I like the comfort of having them with me. I heard she is one of the most powerful goddesses and I want to know if I can’t do this because I don’t want to anger or offend her.

Bottom line is that I’m having a tough time and I want to know if I’m in good metaphorical hands!

Thanks for any responses in advance!!

Closed practices

Hi!! I have been doomscrolling instagram and now I am very afraid I have been culturally appropriating! I worship Lady Hathor (I call her the Greek name because that’s how she appeared to me) and I celebrate Samhain. Are these both closed to me as an American White person? Someone said the Samhain was closed because you have to be Celtic. Similarly someone mentioned that Kemetism is closed and only for people from Africa. I don’t want to be known as a bad person and I want to fix it but I am very close to lady Hathor as she has saved my life. Help please!!

Amazing experience!!

Hi everyone! I had an amazing experience today when I was praying to Apollo and I need to share it!

What happened was, I was sitting outside on a sunny day and thanking Apollo for the beautiful day. After I finished the prayer I saw an Osprey nest with 3 chicks and 2 fully grown birds. After I had seen them they started flying above me. After this they perched on a tree fairly close to me and just kept staring. It felt like Apollo was watching over me and it made me more confident for the day! (I was having a bad day with bullying.)

I would love to hear if you guys have similar experiences (any gods not just Lord Apollo)

Hii! I worship Lady Hathor, Archangel Uriel, Lord Apollo and Lord Freyr. I am not really a beginner anymore but I still have this question. I like to bring the statues from my altar other places because it makes me feel safe. Is this disrespectful? It always makes me feel so awestruck to see the statues and it just makes me happier. Is this bad?

  1. I am relatively new to polytheism and I worship gods from many pantheons but some people say I can’t. So what is this called and is it allowed?

  2. I am deathly afraid of being told I only like the aesthetics and I want to read and study more. Can I have some good sources for accurate research?

  3. Where to find generally cheap statues for the gods and deities? I worship Lady Hathor, Archangel Uriel, and Lord Apollo and I just can’t seem to find any statues of Hathor which upsets me because I love here so much. Have you seen any?

Sorry for lengthy post but I heavily appreciate any help!
