Hades was not widely or frequently worshiped or venerated in the ancient world. There were few temples to him or ceremonies or prayers, and the people feared to say his name lest it draw his attention to them.
I had only one obstacle to overcome in my worship of Hades, and that is that he raped (or just kidnapped) Persephone. He then used her hunger against her to make her eat a pomegranate seed so that she would have to remain in Hades for part of the year. This sounds unethical to me.
But I've realized I've done unethical things, and maybe I haven't even fully repented for all of them, and I need help. Is it unethical to want to hide certain unsavory parts about yourself while exposing your best side to the world? I feel it is a little; people don't know the full you, and if they did, they may not like you.
I have things about myself I want people to know, and I have things about myself I don't want people to know. Luckily, Hades is not only god of the underworld, but he is also the god of invisibility. When Hades helped defeat the Titans, he was rewarded with a helmet of invisibility by the Uranian Cyclopes.
Many heroes and other gods have used the cap of invisibility, including Athena, Hermes, and Perseus. It hid them during times of danger. If you are looking to keep something invisible, go to Hades.
Is it moral to ask that your sins be kept secret? Not really; in a just world, we would all pay for all our crimes. I don't feel comfortable going to a puritanical god to ask to protect my trespasses from notice. I am asking for a dirty deed; I'm not gonna go to the best part of town to get it done.
But if you think about it, if your crimes are hidden and you're not found out, Hades covered you. Why? We don't know, but he did it; maybe he is a god of mercy too. I won't lie—there are things I don't want people to know, so I pray to Hades. Am I the only one that will admit that?
But also, whatever is invisible is made so by Hades, so Hades can remove the invisibility and make things visible, which makes him also lord of visibility. If there are things you want visible, then pray to Hades to remove the veil. I did, and it worked.
I've been trying to wake people up to the Noahide agenda for almost 12 years. When I first started, no one knew about the Noahide Laws, and it got visibility only slowly. However, I started praying to Hades about it, and all of a sudden, people started telling me they were hearing about the Noahide Laws everywhere. This was the first time that anyone ever suggested many people knew about the Noahide Laws.
I am writing this article because I want others to pray to Hades so his power will grow. Also, it is a duty of Secular Paganism to spread the gods, so as to gain family in the fight against monotheisms, like Noahidism. The principles are 1. no monotheism/bitheism, 2. no anti-blasphemy laws, 3. free love but high fertility, 4. no murder, 5. no theft, 6. no animal abuse, 7. courts of justice.
If these seven principles were promoted and made visible by pagans, we would see a healthier and happier world. If you are devoted to the gods, you will fight for them. A devotion to Hades will make you want to uphold these principles.
