opinion on persephone x adonis?

I don't really have any strong opinions on that ship. Personally I prefer to interpret Persephone loving Adonis as something similar to how girls who died before marriage are called "brides of Hades"

I'd read this post here, I think it is a quite interesting view on Adonis and Persephone's relationship

How do I even start to explain the thought process behind me thinking that Zeus/Hera/Aphrodite is a more believable throuple then Hephaestus/Ares/Aphrodite?

sapocipo

You see how in both of these cases it not a well balanced throuple and more like a person being added to a couple? All I am saying is that at least Aphrodite wouldn't mind being in the cuck chair considering how many times she is just third wheeling couples (Did you know that her name is sometimes used as an innuendo? Just check Hesiod's theogony, being "joined by Aphrodite" just means having sex), plus she actually ships Zeus with Hera (Unlike how Hephaestus either hates or doesn't care about about Ares/Aphrodite)

Also they all have this quite interesting connection with marriages

I imagine they would have quite the fun dynamic where they all act like work-parents to Hymenaios lol I don't think that Hera nor Zeus would actually be open to add someone to their marriage lmao so at the end of the day the throuple would end up looking like this

Some other points to why Aphrodite/Zeus/Hera is superior to the other throuple:

Aphrodite and Hera share names

Zeus and Aphrodite were lovers in some sources

Aphrodite loves Ares who is Zeus and Hera's son (also sometimes he is just Hera's and sometimes he is just Zeus')

Aphrodite married to another one of Zeus and Hera's son (in a lot of sources Hephaestus is the son of Hera alone, and I'd say Aphrodite did love him, considering that in many sources he is the father of Eros/Cupid)

Hephaestus/Ares/Aphrodite SUCKS. Polyamory wont fix them. Stop ignoring Hephaestus lovely wife Aglaea.

Aphrodite got a funny dynamic with Hera where she will just do whatever the Queen says lol

Hera and Aphrodite share retinue

Actually there is a lot of things connecting Hera and Aphrodite...

It's funny

#I'd dare say that Aphrodite got the highest chances to third Hera/Zeus then anyone else #Okay I am kinda bulshitting here lol #I despise when Hephaestus is just added to Ares/Aphrodite in a weird “hey it is not cheating if you join”#I don't know how to explain it.... it's just weird #Why would you force that man to be the third to a couple that betrayed his trust instead of shipping him with Aglaea?#Not to mention that I don't think Ares/Aphrodite would be okay with it either. Hephaestus publicly humiliated them both

I hate adds that have a little sample of how their game works but when you are halfway through finishing it they send you straight to the app store like. excuse me. I was hoarding the money that pile on my back on an insanelly high tower so I can expand the store. let me finish this level of your add that so unpolitelly interrupted my gameplay of a game that I actually care about.

#Anyways #Very rude of them tbh

Peitho loves Hermes, no matter what.

Hermes is comfortable with being a man, but I do think on rare occasions when he is feeling uniquely mischievous, he changes to the shape of a woman, for his schemes. He and Peitho are the only ones who benefit when this happens.

Is there an actual source for the myth of Apollo being unable to choose between the muses so he unofficially married them all? I do really like the myth I just, can't seem to find an actual source for it. If it turns out to be an invention by some randomass scholar I'm gonna cry

brimo5

I'm adding this to my "where's the original source??!!" list, right after "Macaria married Thanatos", "Medusa was a priestess" and "Dionysus rescued Ariadne from the underworld."😵

The "Zeus married Aphrodite to Hephaestus to prevent the gods to cause a war over her hand" in particular really bothers me because I have no idea who even came up with that

Aphrodite: “He is very dear to me.”

Anteros: “How could you hurt someone who was so dear to you?”

Aphrodite: “Maybe it’s because I thought of him so dear that it hurt so much.”

#Moon how do you feel when u hurt us like that hm?#CUZZ I DONT WANNA LEARN ANOTHER SCENT #I DONT WANT THE CHILDREN OF ANOTHER MAN TO HAVE THE EYES OF THE GIRL THAT I WONT FORGET #I WONT FORGEEEEEEEEEET #😭 sprry for the random ass song #Aphrodite bonding with the child of her first love give me the feels #Aphrodite n Nerites u two had a very bad breakup but u r so special to me 💔💔

-Object: Psiché au tribunal de Vénus

I shared this work before but I am going to share again because I just found out something...

I thought that this lady next to Aphrodite was Peitho but according to the description from the British museum this is HERA!

Psyche before the tribunal of Venus: the butterfly-winged Psyche stands at left, before a carved throne upon which Juno and Aphrodite are seated; Cupid stands and mourns at right; three winged female figures hover behind the throne; before title. 1825 Lithograph

#Lovely art OP #Youtube

The reviews of George O'Connors comics really are something else lol, why would you buy a comic featuring a goddess that you hate SO MUCH to the point of dropping two whole stars from the final review?

This other one is also crazy. The person likes both the story and art and their only complain was that Aphrodite took the spotlight... she is an Olympian this is a series about the Olympians T-T! Ofc she would have a volume for herself!

Aren't ratting supposed to judge the quality of writing and such?

Anyways, Aphrodite still my goat, haters gonna hate and if they can take away stars from the reviews just because they don't like Aphrodite then I wish I could give this comic a thousand stars to match just how much I love Aphrodite

#I need to do an actual fair review tho. So my love for Aphrodite wont affect the final score #Would anyone be interest in seeing what I have to say about this comic and it's characterization of Aphrodite?#greek mythology #aphrodite #greek gods #George O'Connor

It's funny looking at stuff on pop culture Medusa™ and finding rando claims about all sorts of gods and heroes getting involved in the middle. I swear she is not that big of a deal lol

#greek mythology #Medusa

With all the hills ‘tis Woe for Cypris and with the vales ‘tis Woe for Adonis; the rivers weep the sorrows of Aphrodite, the wells of the mountains shed tears for Adonis; the flowerets flush red for grief, and Cythera’s isle over every foothill and every glen of it sings pitifully Woe for Cytherea, the beauteous Adonis is dead, and Echo ever cries her back again, The beauteous Adonis is dead. Who would not have wept his woe over the dire tale of Cypris’ love?

-Poems of Bion, the Lament for Adonis

What about Cythera's whole atmosphere being affected by how intense amount of sorrow and grief Aphrodite is feeling? Every element of nature crying with her, mourning the death of her beloved?
