  1. ✨Dionysus was interested in seafood?✨

    This is part of the recently uncovered House of Thiasos at Pompeii which is covered in sprawling and near life sized portraits of followers of Dionysus including Silenus (seen here with a young lady). But it seems that the veneration of Dionysus would be incomplete indeed without some fine marine creatures!

  6. ✨Dionysus and Spes (Maybe)✨

    Dionysus is dressed in his panther-skin best and wears a garland to boot. He’s joined by a smaller figure more archaic in style which is thought to represent Spes, the personification of hope. But maybe that’s more HOPEFUL thinking since one of stops on the journey of provenance was as part of the Hope collection. Either way, this beautiful sculpture also considered to be a Roman reimagining of a Greek bronze from the fourth century BCE.

  16. Bacchus, the god of wine (also known as Dionysus to the Greeks) lounges semi-nude in a golden and burgundy gown while holding a spectre of some kind. This is likely a thyrsus, but the telltale details are missing.

    Bacchus appears to be wearing a garland - a very typical thing in his iconography. Just off on stage right appears to be another figure holding a dish. The background of this scene is a brilliant warm red.

    The fresco comes from a house that was built on the same site, but prior to, the Baths of Caracalla in Rome. It is thought to date to the early second century CE. The house was revealled during archaeological excavations in 2022 and can be seen today as part of the tour of the baths.

  21. @novafuture Um, have you heard about the #Dionysus / #Bacchus cults? Or ritual #Saki drinking? Or beer and wine in #AncientEgypt (so important that some were buried with it)? And yes, alcohol was given to workers because the water was contaminated. The history of alcohol (and other mind-altering substances) goes back further than modern marketing hype. And yes. Everything in moderation.

  34. O Holy Dionysus

    Of the ivy and the vine

    I ask for your presence

    I ask for your blessings

    Lord of ecstatic revelation

    Lord of the altered mind



    Show me the world as it truly is

    Allow me to see the truth

    For in your presence I will dance

    Wild and abandoning reason



    And for the world I ask a boon

    Show them the hurt they cause

    Let them feel it too

    For in feeling lies compassion



    Show them too the lies they tell

    To others and to themselves

    That they may learn to live truthfully

    And allow others to do the same



    Lord of the vine and the ivy

    Stand with us today

    Walk, perhaps crookedly, along this path with us

    Lord of introspection

    Grant us your gifts

    Walk with us as we navigate life, O holy Dionysus
