Phobos as a Patron deity
« on: February 21, 2017, 04:15:53 pm »
One of my best friends have been having dreams of their worst fears in the wake of a war. This follows the belief that Phobos (God of fear) followed Ares in war. I believe that Phobos is her patron deity. I believe this is a rare sight, Anyone have any experience with this minor god? Any advice or tips? Her and I have a very deep spiritual connection and I want to help her with explaining what this is that is happening

I have no relationship with Phobos, but I did know a Priestess of Nemesis.  I see nothing to be afraid of with Phobos as a patron.  According to history he was revered by the soldiers of Sparta.  The "fear" of failure or being out of place caused the Spartan soldiers to be disciplined.  Like Apollo, my Patron, who is a god of healing, he is also the bringer of plague.  Phobos can be both the god of fear, but also overcoming the fear.  It is also believed that because he is a son of Aphrodite, he was the god people prayed to when they were afraid of losing a loved one.  

There are many aspects of fear, and recognizing fear, when to be afraid and when to overcome, can only make one a stronger person.  I wish your friend much growth in her relationship with Phobos.
Love, Light, Laughter, and a lot of Wine.
