To worship Lethargia is to relax, enjoy, daydream and lounge around. Her followers celebrate a laid back life by partaking in afternoon naps, soaking in warm baths, sleeping in, pampering themselves with massage and breakfasts in bed (preferrably cooked and served by someone else), and  long dreamy moments of quiet bliss.

Like all goddesses, Lethargia does have her dark side. Spend too much time worshipping at her altar and you could end up never wanting to get out of bed again.

Tell Us All About It (if you have the energy) 

What are your favorite ways to chill out, avoid work, find excuses for doing nothing? Where is your favorite napping spot? Do you want to slap overachievers but find it exhausting to raise your hand? These are just a few questions you may want to share answers to, or just say "hi", or just roll over and go back to sleep.

The Dark Side of Lethargia 

Signs you've spent too much time lolling around in Lethargia's chamber:
  • Can't remember the last time you bathed but flies follow you around and people avoid you.
  • All your utlities have been shut off because you didn't get around to paying the bills and your landlord is threatening eviction if you don't pay the rent.
  • You get fired from your job.
  • Your white sheets are now a dingy gray.

About violet_strange

A mixed-up mixed-media artist, amateur shutterbug and former sideshow exhibit, I've worked in several fields including: book and clothing retail, a pro photographic lab, graphic arts and design, and the restaurant business (I was a waitress).

A few of the things I adore are dogs, horror movies, clothes, old houses, and making weird things.

I currently live at the Chateau de Verslumes where I reign as a Baroness, though fellow occupants may disagree. I like to have my cake and eat it, too, but they can't have any.
