Hecate and Hermes, and they seem to get along well. For me, neither are really Greek anymore, now they are modern American eclectic Witchcraft
Hecate has always come to me as a beautiful 30ish woman. I know she can be scary, I can feel it "under her skin" so to speak, but she has always been kind and helpful to me. Hermes has gotten a few of my friends out of jail and a ton of jobs. He always brings this air of clear thought and speech that tickles my brain in that special way

Be nice to Eris. Not that it's guaranteed to get you anything you're particularly looking for, but it never hurts. ;-)

Use to work with Aphrodite/Venus all the time. . .If I could be a Greek Goddess it would be her because of her attributes.

I usually worship the Egyptian Gods, but if I had to pick it would be Apollo.

I have a fastination with mythology and studied it a short collage course. I adore the greek mythology and gods. I have worked more with them since i first started practicing than with egyption or others. My favorites are Aries and Athena. Both because of their power and their wisdom. I use alot of the other gods but feel my most powerful connection to these two. I also favor Prometheus and Hecate. I find that though i don't need the gods all the time i work better with Aries than any other.

For some reason, I've always felt a connection with Athena, so I'll probably work with her soon.

I have four θεοι to whom I am particularly connected: Dionysus, Zeus, Morpheus, and Thanatos, with the level of connectivity in that order. I also have special feelings regarding Athena, Apollo, Psyche and, more recently, Hermes.
I really love my θεοι.

Ares is who I work with on my darker spells (which really doesn't happen much)
Hera, she is my fav. by far. She's a strong yet a mother. In some way I like her alot because my mother is a very strong and loving person.
Lastly Hestia because I belive it's always good to have the goddess watch over your home and family

I normally try to avoid the Greek/Roman powers. However, Pluto (I don't use Greek names if I'm calling any of them) helped me out once. Called on him in his position as Ruler of riches under the Earth when I was strapped for cash and my family was running into issues. Things turned up slightly pretty soon, dramatic changes came much later but life balanced to functional pretty fast.
I'm faintly curious if anyone else has called on him outside his role as Lord of the underworld.

*scratches head & wonders why in the little flurry of corrections regarding Roman and Hellenic names, nobody actually pointed out that Hecate is the romanized name for a deity who may not even be Greek*
Lol and in case anybody hasn't guessed, I work with Hekate. Ive also had dealings with Cronos and Kore but only to a limited extent.

Prometheus, Athena, and Aphrodite. Not really worked with them, but if I were going to, these would be the three I'd start with most likely.
