My favorite of all her epithets is Aphrodite Pandemos which means Aphrodite Of All People. I’ve always spoken about how Aphrodite is a goddess who welcomes and embraces all potential worshipers regardless of sexuality, gender, preferences, aesthetics, hobbies, and style. The Pandemos epithet is representative of that belief and I personally think it is ultimately the core of who Aphrodite is. A Goddess for us all.
Here are some other epithets of hers I quite enjoy!
Aphrodite Kallipygos (Of the beautiful buttocks)
Aphrodite Areia (Warlike)
Nikêphoros (Bringer of Victory)
Ourania (Heavenly)
Epitumbidia (She Upon the Graves)
Tumborukhos (Gravedigger)
Androphonos (Killer of Men)
Eleemon (Merciful)
Enoplios (Bearing Weapons)
Dia (Divine; Shining)
Philommeidês (Laughter-Loving)
Kataskopia (Spying; Peeping)
Hôplismenê (Armed)
Summakhia (Ally in War)
Melainis (Black)
Skotia (Dark)
Do you see how multifaceted this goddess truly is?? It’s rare to find a realm that has not felt the divine influence of Aphrodite.
Happy Aphrodite April, my magnificent swans! Today I’m going to discuss some of my favorite epithets of Aphrodite! I figured this would be nice since I see a lot of posts listing the epithets but not really going into much detail about them. These are ones that I prefer using when I talk to Aphrodite but of course you may choose to find ones that you personally like using! A wonderful list of epithets and titles can be found on Aphrodite’s page on Theoi.com!
Urania (Ourania) - Heavenly, Divine: This is a common epithet and think because it’s so common it’s one that just FITS Aphrodite. It’s natural to use this when referring to her and it’s one of the first ones that pop into my head when I do an impromptu ritual. And I mean come on, heavenly? Divine? That’s totally our girl, Aphrodite!
Aphrogeneia - Foam Born: As my URL would indicate I am partial to Aphrodite’s foam born creation myth. To me, it just seems way more fitting for such a magnificently beautiful Goddess of many attributes to have risen straight from the sea being like “bitches, i’m here!”.
Pandemos - Common to ALL people: This one is probably my favorite of all her epithets. I call it the “shut down” epithet. When someone tries to come at you saying that Aphrodite only represents one standard of beauty, one kind of love, one gender, one sexuality, you throw this epithet at them and they are SHUT DOWN! Aphrodite is a goddess for ALL people, end of story!
Melaenis (Melainis) - Black of Night: You can discover a lot of interesting things about deities by looking at their epithets. Aphrodite especially has a lot of interesting ones. Like this one! When people think of Aphrodite usually visions of the beach and fields of bright colored flowers, pinks, pale blues and greens, are among the first images. But this epithet indicates that there’s a lot more to Aphrodite! Theres a darker side, a side that exists when the sun leaves the sky. I tend to use this epithet in the fall and winter. I find Aphrodite’s darker sides show more when the land is dead and the sun is gone. Its why I prefer to celebrate Adonia in the fall.
Morpho - Of Shapely Form: I enjoy this epithet because for me it indicates that Aphrodite could be seen as a big girl. And i’m not just talking about the “acceptable” fat girl shape. I’m talking big soft bellies, thighs that could crush a skull, arms that jiggle jiggle, and asses so big and round you HAVE to take a moment to thank Aphrodite for such beauty in the world! So yeah, don’t let anyone tell you Aphrodite can’t be a fat girl or that she doesnt support fat girls!
Areia - Warlike; Nikêphoros - Bringer of Victory; Hôplismenê (Hoplismena) - Armed: I grouped these 3 together because I like them for all the same reasons. They point towards Aphrodite’s role as a possible War Goddess. How freakin AWESOME is that? I feel like it makes more sense because we like to pretend that love and war are opposites, which is why Aphrodite and Ares’s relationship seemed so romantic. Yet the truth is love and war actually go hand in hand, wars begin because of love, love blossoms in the midst of war, love can be the fuel to continue a war. I find it way more likely that Aphrodite, being a war goddess,understands Ares bloodthirst for war and battle, and loves him for it not despite it. They both can appreciate the beauty of a battle and the deep relationships formed between the soldiers, something no one can even begin to understand, except Aphrodite and Ares.
My personal bbc Sherlock headcanon is that “Rosie” grows up and comes out as trans. (FTM) And John and Sherlock being really, REALLY protective and supportive of their new son. Transphobes? Bullies? Dysphoria? Nope. Not on their watch.
After their son comes out, Sherlock spends the next 6 hours researching trans-related-terminology, legal name/gender changes, options for HRT or surgery, and scheduling a hair cut appointment for the next day, all to make his son happy. John orders a ridiculous amount of pride flags, and puts them literally EVERYWHERE. He even goes down to his son’s school, and gets his son’s information changed in their system. Mrs. Hudson takes her pseudo-nephew shopping for new clothes and anything else that might need to be replaced. Mycroft hires a professional tailor to come and measure his nephew for a custom chest binder. Molly would explain how any medical changes would work to Sherlock, John, and their son. Lestrade would be come and intimidate any establishments that wouldn’t allow his godson to use the men’s restroom.
I love it. I’m so proud that I thought of this one. 🏳️⚧️
