Ares' Sentinels are spirits that dedicated themselves to Ares either in life or after death. They are spirits who worship and honor the Aspect of Ares that represents defense, protecting the home front, and providing for the family. They are honorable spirits who are filled with compassion and justice. This offering is to enlist their aid as a protection-type spirit, who will keep guard over you, your family, or your household and will deal with incoming threats. These threats can be spiritual, magickal, or energetic in nature, but they could easily be people who carry ill-intent or other social forces who seek to either take advantage of you, or view you as necessary collateral damage. They prevent as much as they can, and if they can't prevent it, then they'll warn you to ensure your own safety. They are constantly vigilant on your behalf, and consider it an honor to work for you in this capacity. They consider it a sacred pact with Ares to further their own understanding of defense, protection, and justice.
They aren't vengeful spirits, but if they feel there has been a wrong that needs to be righted, they won't hold themselves back. This will be done in a way that will be nonviolent and will ensure that you and your loved ones are not caught in any after effects. While sometimes bad things need to happen for good things to follow, Ares' Sentinels try to minimize that bad and maximize that good. They also try to act in a way that ensures good karma stacks up for their actions instead of bad karma, so do not feel as if there will be any backlash for their actions in that way either. They act to keep people safe and not to harm them. However, they will never act in a way that violates a necessary life lesson. They can only help make you as comfortable as possible when dealing with a situation like that and will be there to help guide you should anything happen.
They will be fiercely loyal spirits to you, your family, and your other loved ones, and will care for all of you with a special and wonderful gentleness that will make you feel you are in the best hands. Once adopted, they consider you, your family, and your loved ones one of their own. They aren't shy to tell you how you feel and to express themselves, so if there's something you're doing that might be causing harm to yourself, whether intentional or not, they will speak up about it and will make sure you listen. This is not done in an overbearing way, but is more of a tiny guilt trip. Although, this approach is dependent on the spirit as each one is different and unique. They are excellent judges of both situations and character, so feel free to discuss anything with them.
These spirits come from all different times and eras, and are not necessarily just those who were engaged in a career as a soldier. They are both named and unnamed people throughout history, and surprisingly, not all of them are human. There are vampires, werecreatures, and incubus/succubus among others who have dedicated themselves to Ares in this way. Interestingly enough, one of my Luchaberen vampires actually became a Sentinel after meeting this aspect of Ares. They are all of excellent skill and ability and employ everything in their arsenal to ensure your safety. Some may be sexual in nature, but most are focused solely on your defense. They all fall into the Gray Arts spectrum and rarely dip into Dark Arts.
Naturally, having one of these entities in your spirit family means that you can also gain a stronger connection to Ares, if you want to pursue that path. Worship of and/or bonding with Ares is not a necessity, but it may make your Spirit Sentinel even stronger.
This offering can be spirit bound or remotely bound to a vessel already in your possession, I merely need the picture sent to me. Please contact me regarding your preference. Email preferred.
