Please do not be afraid to reach out to a deity. Don’t hesitate to pray to a God who you know could help out, even if you’ve never worked with them before. You don’t need a deep understanding of them to ask for their help. It’s okay to reach out: it can turn out profoundly fulfilling.
Similar to my grimoire guide, this is a guide on deity journals.
A deity journal is a journal dedicated to a deity. It’s filled with information, offerings, devotional pieces, etc. If you like journaling or can’t give other physical offerings (like food, libations, etc.), it’s one of the best offerings out there.
Usually deity journals are physical journals and notebooks. Binders and folders work as well. I have seen deity journals online, using things like Notion or Google Docs. Those are a little harder to format, but are great if you don’t have a notebook or aren’t a fan of physical journals.

My mjolnir pendant is so important to me. It's a constant reminder of my Gods and my ancestors in my soul at all times.
It's holy to wear but it's also holy to live with. My partner and I kiss on my bed and mjolnir swings into his teeth on accident and we laugh, and someone else, some ancient lovers with the same faith, have done that before.
