the queen stared at her knight in awe, awe for her steadfast determination against all odds and her endless strength, as she was pulled out of her underworld- her eleusinian mystery, as she was immortal in death, sweet petra was her anchor to life, her home.

After MCM London last weekend I have extremely low stock of Secret Rites, exploring an ancient Greek ritual (Eleusinian Mysteries) & goddess Demeter's search for her daughter Persephone. Just a few left only from 💀https://t.co/p3Uhw4QsBp

On here are Persephone with her mother, pre-abduction (statuette from Melos) & reunited, receiving a woman initiate into Eleusinian Mysteries (tablet from Eleusis). This story had a fairly happy ending and Persephone got to wave her torches again

I flipping love doing non-fiction books because it allows me to just go wild on research and deep-dive into what I'm drawing! I got deeply obsessed with the Eleusinian Mysteries while making this book!!!!! And had a valid excuse for it!!!

MYSTES -the initiate into the Ancient Greek Eleusinian Mysteries- was directed by the Mystagogos. The highest initiates were called Epoptes. Here are surrealist artist Agostino Arrivabene’s dream-like representations of these esoteric rites. (Mystai Demetra epopteia; Mystai II)

The 1st rule of the Eleusinian Mysteries? Don’t talk about them... but it’s believed the secretive ancient Greek cult let most anyone attempt initiation. Those who passed enjoyed a 9-day party-The Greater Mysteries-w/ singing, dancing & sacrifices, to celebrate.
