Hello I have questions about something I've been doing.
So I've been doing spagyrics which is an alchemical thing the point of it is to make herbal medicine from plants but also use the energy of the planets associated with them to heal spiritually and physically. I'm pretty new to it still so I won't go in depth but for the planetary energy part I've have been making up rituals to invoke the gods of the planets.
Anyway I want to know if what I'm doing is disrespectful as I am not a Hellenist so I don't know for sure, anyway here's two rituals I did for it I want to know your opinions.
So here's what I did I harvested mullein on Saturday and where I harvested it I said the orphic hymn to saturn/Kronos and left a offering I can't remember what I offered, then I got home and put the mullein I in a jar with alcohol and let it to macerate for a whole moon cycle I then strained the alcohol off. I then burned that same mullien into ash which is part of the spagyric process I then put the ash in the jar which I didn't need to but I just didn't have time to finish burning them. Now it's another Saturday and I'm going to finish the ash part so I invoked Saturn again I used the same hymn but added one part asking about the plant and tincture I did a burnt offering of myrrh and barley that I grey myself I then told saturn that he was free to leave and to have a save way back home, I also did two banashing rituals before and after it.
The next one i did was venus/Aphrodite. First I harvested vervain on Friday and then where I harvested it at did a banashing ritual then said an incantation I myself wrote for venus/Aprhodite then when I got home I did another banashing and said a different incantation to Aphrodite and asked for her power to be infused into the tincture and left her burnt offering of roses, mugwort and vetiver. I then thanked her and told her to make her way home safely then did a banashing ritual.
Does this sound pointless or disrespectful in anyway.
Thank you for taking your time to read this.
