THE ODYSSEY — THE LONG WAY HOME
Penelope once tells Odysseus, “Stay with me.” But Odysseus chooses war. He leaves the woman he loves, his home, and the life that might have been his, believing that glory, duty, and victory are worth the price.Then comes Troy.Odysseus wins the war not through strength, but through his mind. The Trojan Horse becomes the symbol of his greatest triumph: a victory born from deception, patience, and cunning.But every victory has a shadow.The horse that opens the gates of Troy also opens the […]https://liveterra.wordpress.com/2026/09/28/the-odyssey-the-long-way-home/
As a queer magickal practitioner, Phoenix LeFae's forthcoming book on Dionysus really resonated with me. It's a gorgeous tapestry of a book, full of lore, poetry, stories, and rituals from a variety of contributors.

Greek Goddess Archetypes #greekgods #greekmythology
We ⚡️will ⚡️open the doors of a public sanctuary and provide a place for healing, hope, and reconnection. Everything is finally sliding into place.
A real, public place of worship.
We’re so close that
it’s no longer a matter of if,
it’s a matter of when.
We work really hard behind the scenes while also demanding that nobody locks the Gods behind a paywall. We serve the low-income, the disabled, the homeless, and the queer communities.
Hellenism is for everyone.
Unfortunately, in order to open the doors which will never close and light the eternal hearth flame— we need to raise funds.
So, at the recommendation of our priests, we’re setting up a founders membership. For a tax-deductible donation of $50 (or more, if the Gods have blessed you with wealth), you will become a founding patron of the sanctuary.
We will carve your name (or a dedication of your choice) into one of the pathway stones leading up to the Temple, so that your generosity will be remembered for all time.
At the end of the day, no one person can build a Temple. It takes community and commitment.
If you would like to support us on a monthly basis or browse our collection of free resources, please check out our Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/TempleofDionysus?utm_campaign=creatorshare_creator
The Gods still speak, if only we will listen.

**No Xenia For Xenophobes
We received a clear message from Zeus which we feel compelled to share.
As with most of Hellenism, Xenia is reciprocal.
We cannot extend Xenia to invaders in our communities to seek to harm and destroy the diversity of our sacred gardens.
No Xenia for Xenophobes.
It is our sacred duty to protect the sanctity of hospitality and deny Xenia to ICE agents.
Their masks, distractions, and coverups cannot hide their crimes from Themis, from Zeus, from Dike.
We affirm our third amendment rights.
May the warmth of the Gods melt the hazardous ice. May our our roads and our communities find safety this winter. May Dionysus break the chains of oppression. May Herakles grant us strength.
Stay safe. Stay warm.
The Gods are watching.

Zeus & Eurpoa, M. Dasio, 1900.
The story is not very friendly to women’s rights, as you might guess from the bull & naked woman.
This one was... exciting to scan, 18½x11¾ or so inches, two multi-gigabyte images to stitch together in GIMP (the bok margins meant i had to scan some margin too so it was larger than the A3+ scan are) and a seam to clone out. Then G'MIC to descreen.

....Athena?
"Chanelle Moon" I have also seen rendered as "Chanel Moon". Usually I roll my eyes hearing a brand name as a given name, but such is the power of Kpop to suppress my worst instincts my eyes remain unrolled.
Athena, besides being exceptionally pretty, deserves notice as a Swedish idol; her parents are Taiwanese and Korean. Her name reminds me that I have been meaning for some time to post something here about postpagan attitudes to the Olympian deities. I hope to get round to this soon!

Zeus asks very good question in Thor: Love and Thunder in post-titles moment: "when we become joke for people?"
But he shown as a quite bad character there. And by obvious reasons he can't understand that when you stop to care about the people, they send you GFY, and never come back.
it very well applies to politics, generally.

“The man on the throne was beautiful, if beauty was measured in power.

You know, I have always wondered about this:
Demeter is the Greek goddess of the harvest, grains and the fertility of the earth. She was also goddess of sacred law, the cycle of life and death, health, birth, and marriage.
10 facts about Demeter:

"Hey #Athena, why so glum?"
"I've got a lot on my head right now"
"…don't you mean on your mind?"
"I meant what I said. Also? My aegis just won't shut up!"

The Aegean peoples have always had a permanent solution to truly disastrous problems.
Little ones like Nazis and Ottomans - they'll be gone in a few years or decades. Nothing to worry about in the grand scheme.
Big ones like the alien mecha invasion required the ancient solution to be brought out.
Sure, it cost a few troops - but they volunteered for the job, and knew that they would be joining their enemy.
And after, the head was carefully stored away, and everyone swore to forget about it. Until it was really needed again.
