You can be very discreet depending on what you do.
I personally wouldn't bat an eyelid if I saw someone pour a small amount of a drink onto the floor.
You could say a silent prayer and accompany it with a small libation.

Dragon_Witch_Woman The Indubitable Katie-Kat Holy cow that's a lot of books. o.o I think it's time to update my Amazon wishlist. EDIT: Printed out the list and took it to Borders. They didn't have a single one. Argh. Yeah, Borders sucks like that. We have a Walden Books here, which is part of Borders, they never have the book I'm lookin' for. Thankfully, There is not only a Books a Million, but also a Barns and Noble in a city close to me. I know I can order the books I want from there if need be (and if I ever get the cash -_-) I *think* there's a Barnes and Noble somewhere in Omaha, but the Borders at the new shopping centre is much closer, so no one's willing to take me to B&N. sad

I'm rather tired of searching the bookstores. xd

Dragon_Witch_Woman New question: Does anyone know of any special rites for moving into new houses? I'm curious sence we're about to move. I swear, I remember someone asking this on the various yahoo groups. When I moved into my apartment, I did a ritual to Hestia, inviting her to help me create it a home.

Curious question (sence this thread has been dead for months, lets give it a jolt, shall we?)
Does anyone have (besides an altar) any particular space dedicated to one more more of the Theo? This such as a garden or groove? I'm thinking about setting up a garden, but I'm afraid the neighborhood kids would trash it sence we don't have a fence around our yard.

I have a small bed of poppies I keep up for the Two Goddesses. Sometimes. Poppies are very fussy and don't do well where I live, but I try.
Um, is an intro needed on my first time commenting here? I've been calling myself a Hellenic polytheist for something like three years. Practicing has been a bit more haphazard though sweatdrop

I live in an apartment with no porch or garden, so not a whole lot of space to do much else.

I live in an apartment with no porch or garden, so not a whole lot of space to do much else. ooooh I know how that is.I was thrilled when we finally moved into a house. What I really wanna do, is plant some giant sunflowers. I have a pack of giant sunflower seeds I'd love to plant, but I gotta figure out a place where they won't bother my brother to much, because aparently, he's allergic. Probably the sideyard, where he doesn't really go very often. I really need a space I can go away from the other seven people who live here where I can worship and what not w/o fifty questions from my neice or bizarre looks from my mother and older sister O.<

Here's the problem:
My parents are Christian but I don't agree. I believe in the Goddess, but they can't tell me how to praise her and I don't know how to. How can I praise her, I'm lost.

I figure this is probably the proper place to ask this:
What are your (anyone) top three books concerning Hellenic Reconstruction, especially in regards to "newbies"?
I ask because, for my senior project at school I'm doing an extensive research project/series of presentations on several pagan religions, and one of them is Hellenic Recon. (There's the, I really want to learn everything there is to know, aspect as well, heh.) And the best place to go for information would (usually) be those who practice themselves, right?
Thanks for your help. =]

Thanks for your help. =] My top three? For a solid scholarly intro: Burkert's Greek Religion For a intro and how to into Hellenic Polytheism: Sarah Winter's Kharis: Hellenic Polytheism Explored For a focus off of Athens: Nilsson's Greek Folk Religion edit: and forgive me for taking time to respond. I've been camping. This does not count various primary sources of mythology, etc.
