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.

"Without Ceres and Bacchus, Venus freezes" by Andrea Boscoli (1560-1607)
The title is a quote from "Eunuchus" a Roman comedy by Terence (185-159 BCE):
"That saying, 'Without Ceres and Liber, Venus freezes' is absolutely true!"

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 😢

#Hermes teaches little #Eros how to write 🥰
#Aphrodite is clearly pleased 😊

Today would be the first day of the #Thesmophoria in #ancientGreece. It's an annual festival in honour of #Demeter and part of the sacred festival cycle of grain in ancient Greece. It was celebrated around the time that seeds were sown in late autumn. In Athens, it lasted 5 days.
