Meet Your Muse and Hear Her Message (Roll the Dice!)

Messages from Muses

Good morning, afternoon, evening, or night!

Have you heard your message from an animal guide and message from a magickal creature? If so and you’re ready for another, you will find it here.

This time, we are calling to the inspirational presence of the Nine Muses.

In ancient Greek religion and mythology, the Muses (Ancient Greek: Μοῦσαι, romanized: Moûsai, Greek: Μούσες, romanized: Múses) are the inspirational goddesses of literature, science, and the arts. They were considered the source of the knowledge embodied in the poetry, lyric songs, and myths that were related orally for centuries in ancient Greek culture.

From Wikipedia: Muses

There are Nine Muses, each associated with an area of the arts and a source of inspiration. They are considered to be Pagan Gods of Music and Deities of Creativity.

One of the Muses has a message for you - She is here to offer some guidance and wisdom to help you on the current stage of your path.

Getting Your Muse Message

Remember that this is a moment for you - so consider doing some deep breathing and let yourself set aside any stress or worries you might be carrying. When you feel ready, open your mind to connect with a Muse.

These Nine Muses exist beyond the mundane and are intricately tied to magick and myth. They are not necessarily a spirit guide or life mentor – they are simply here as a passing entity who symbolizes something important. The Muse you are matched with has a message that the universe feels will be beneficial to you right now.

Ready to receive your message? Let’s go!

Recieve Your Lucky Number :1234:

Each muse is represented by a number - so let’s begin by getting you your lucky number!

Here are two ways to get your number:

Method 1

The forum has a built-in handy helper named Discobot :robot: In addition to helping new users feel comfortable using the forum, Discobot is also a random number generator.

Some of you may know Discobot from the Forum Tutorial. If you haven’t done the fun tutorial and learned how to use the forum with Discobot yet, I recommend it! (The tutorial is completely private- it takes place in your Private Messages).

To have Discobot give you a number, all you need to do is:

  1. Click “reply” at the bottom of this post
  2. In the text box that pops up, type the following (EXACTLY as shown!):
@discobot roll 1d9
  1. Click the blue “reply” button to send your post

Discobot will reply to your message with a random number- this is the number of the muse with a message for you :email:

Method 2

If you’re having some trouble with Discobot, no worries! You can also roll a physical or virtual die to get your number :game_die:

→ If you have a nine-sided die (like those used in TTRPGs), you can use it to receive your number. Alternatively, here is a virtual 9-sided die you can roll.

→ You can also use a standard die (with 6 sides) to receive a message from one of the first six muses.

Give the dice a roll and use the number that appears!

Clio wants you to know that, although you may feel a sense of urgency, this is not the time to rush.

Erato - love
Erato

The lovely Lady Erato is the muse of romance. She stars in stories of love and lust, the mistress of all things dealing with the heart. She is very well connected and is associated with the God Eros, the Goddess Aphrodite, and the God Apollo, among others.

Erato has come to you because she senses your need for romance. But while this may be a push to deepen relationships with other people, romance is not always locked into lust and sex. Romance may also be something you nurture within yourself. Beauty comes within, and it is something that must be tended, cared for, and encouraged. Erato encourages you to examine romance in your life, and to give love where it is most needed.

Euterpe - music
Euterpe

Euterpe fills the air with the sound of instruments - she is the pounding sound of the drums, the gentle trill of the flute, and the warbling serenade of the violin. As the muse of music, Euterpe is the conductor of all instruments. She dictates the beat and sets the tone for the soundtrack of your life.

Euterpe wants to know - what tone are you setting today? Are you a slow and steady love song, or are you an energetic pop hit? Whatever you’re feeling in the mood for, Euterpe wants you to embrace it. Turning down the music in your heart leads to emptiness - instead, turn it up and listen well! Your heart knows what it wants and Euterpe wants you to follow its beat. Go where the music takes you.

Balance within our lives and our practices can only found when we acknowledge, honor, and learn from our pain.

Melpomene has come to you because it’s time for you to acknowledge your own inner shadows. Let her guide you through your darkness, so that you might emerge stronger than before.
