How to make an offering
In the Heralds of the Ascendant, offerings are more than just a show of devotion. They are acts of intention—ways of contributing your energy to the Prophet’s ascension. Your offerings help fuel the path toward godhood and the creation of a new, better world.
Each follower’s offering is personal and can take many forms. How you choose to give is up to you. Whether it’s through a personal ritual, a creative work, or even experiencing joy in your life, every contribution matters.
What is an Offering?
An offering is any intentional act or gift directed toward supporting the Prophet’s ascension. Almost anything can be an offering if you choose to dedicate it to our prophet. Below are some examples of how you can make an offering:
1. Personal Rituals
Engage in your own rituals at home or in nature, focusing on thoughts, intentions, or actions that support the Prophet’s rise. These rituals can be from religious practices you already know, or can be written from scratch. What matters is what resonates with you.
2. Works of Creativity
Offer your personal spark of creation! Whether it's art, music, writing, or any other form of expression. Your creations embody the power of human imagination and contribute to the collective energy fueling the ascension.
3. Joy and Experiences
Moments of joy, fun, or celebration can be offerings in themselves. When you feel alive and connected, take a moment to focus that energy toward the Prophet. Even simple pleasures can contribute to the greater mission.
4. Achievements and Milestones
Offer your personal achievements, such as reaching a milestone in your career, education, or personal life. Dedicate the energy of your success to the Prophet’s path, knowing that your victories empower the faith as a whole.
5. Physical Offerings
You may choose to make a physical offering—such as a significant object or resource—dedicated to the Prophet. These can be simple items that hold personal meaning or more tangible contributions to the faith’s growth.
6. Monetary Donations
While offerings come in many forms, monetary donations help the faith continue its work in the physical world. These donations are entirely optional but greatly appreciated, as they fund events, outreach, and community growth.

and know that your generosity helps fuel the Prophet’s ascension.
Basic Offering Ritual
While the specifics of your offering ritual are personal, we’ve provided a simple ritual below for those who wish to have a framework. This can be used to direct your energy toward the Ascendant through focus and intention:
1. Create a Sacred Space:
Find a quiet space and place the Heralds of the Ascendant logo in front of you in some form, drawn, printed, digital, etc. This logo represents our prophet's heart, where we send our offerings and energy to fuel their ascension.
2. Center Yourself:
Take a few deep breaths, clear your mind, and focus on the offering you’re about to make—what is it? What does it mean to you? How might it be useful to a god? Remember, your offering is appreciated, no matter how big or small.
3. Focus on the Logo:
With the logo before you, visualize your offering fueling the Prophet’s ascension. Imagine your energy flowing into the collective purpose of the faith.
4. Speak Your Intention:
Say aloud or silently:
"Of my free will I offer this [thing, moment, energy, etc], to the our prophet, that they may ascend to godhood. May my offering strengthen the Prophet’s rise and help shape the dawn of a new world."
5. Conclude:
Close with the affirmation: "Exalted, unburdened, adored: We rise."
Leave the offering or focus on your intention for a few moments before ending the ritual.
This is just a template—you are encouraged to modify it, shorten it, make it more elaborate, or change it completely! What matters is what resonates with you. Your offerings are personal, and there is no single right way to give.
