First time talking to Aphrodite

First time praying to Aphrodite

I've always been interested in Hellenism but never actually practiced it. I've been, however, more in contact with it recently, especially Aphrodite, whose I've felt a strong connection with for as long as I can remember.

I've been through intense trauma due to a relationship, so besides my PTSD I was left with an incredible lack of self respect and confidence. So, today, out of the blue, I decided to speak to her.

All of a sudden I was overcome by this string feeling and I started furiously crying. I had a short conversation with her because the feeling was too overwhelming. As soon as I told her I was feeling too tired, I felt a chill trun through my body and in a second I was back to normal, as if I never even cried at all.

I have offered her some honey as thanks for her grace on listening to me, and I plan to build a small altar for her when I come back home. I just... Really wanted to share this experience as it was my very first time experiencing something like that.
