Erotic Mythology @[email protected] 🌈さんのイラストまとめ

Those who dive from the top of the Rock of Leukade on the island of Leukos in Western Greece (today Lefkada) are, it is said, freed from their love.
After the death of Adonis it is said Aphrodite wandered around searching for the means to rid herself of her love.

Two horny fauns for #Satyrday 😏

@DeviantArt But Zeus and Hera are not the only gods who got married. Their brother Poseidon had his eyes set on Amphitrite, eldest of the 50 nereid nymphs. But she fled his advances and hid herself away at the ends of the earth.
The dolphin-god Delphin eventually tracked Amphitrite down...

Tell the king the fair wrought house has fallen.
No shelter has Apollon, nor sacred laurel leaves.
The fountains are now silent; the voice is stilled.
It is finished.

A day will come when Phoibos shall return and stay forever.

As promised earlier, this is a thread about #Dionysos, one of my favourite gods. I recently saw claims that he was born of a virgin on 25 December. This is not true. While the date of his birth is uncertain, the ancient Greeks did usually celebrated the birthdays of their gods.

But #GreekMythology has more dogs than just Kerberos (whose name does NOT mean "spot" btw). Hekate, the "divine friend of dogs" is naturally very fond of them and black dogs are sacred to her. Therefore, the Greeks sacrificed black puppies to the goddess 😢
