Greek gods and goddesses that remind me of cottage core
Requested by @reesie8261 I hope this was good! I’m a bit rusty but I did my best ☺️ enjoy!
Hestia. She’s the smell of earth after it rains, the feeling of your toes in fresh dirt, she is the feeling of home
Hermès. He’s the sound of your feet hitting the ground in a game of chase or when your mom tells you to go tell your family that dinner is ready. He is in the notes you write and stick in the river. Maybe someone will find them or they’ll be adrift until it decays. Either way he’s the feeling of simplicity
Dione. She’s the bandaid your friend or older sister puts over your scrape with a kiss to make it feel better. She’s in the extra sweater and water that your friend brings to make sure everyone is warm or hydrated. She’s the feeling of comforting motherly love
Ichnaea. She’s the foot prints in the mud you trace all they way through a field and trees. She’s the trail of flowers you follow to the woods. She’s the feeling of finding your way through the back roads without a map or directions. She is the feeling of finding your way back home after a hike
Auxo. She is in the broom you chase away the wild animals from your garden with. She’s picking off the wild bugs and relocating them. She is the feeling of happiness that spreads through your chest when you find out none of you plants were hurt in the previous nights storm
Thallo. She is the one in the buds on the trees you pass when picking fresh berries. She’s the blooming flowers you leave because they’re not ready just yet. She is the feeling of the first day of spring after a fresh rain
Carpo. She in the pies you give in the fall. The pumpkins you buy, the fresh pumpkin bread you make with it. She is the crunch of leaves under your sandals, she is the feeling you get when you see the leaves finally changing into their red and golden colors
Eirene. She’s in the early morning fog when all is quiet. She is the afternoon naps when the sun is warm through your window and your bed is soft. She is the feeling you get after you clear your day. She is the feeling of complete satisfaction and calmness
Eiar. She is the flower crown settled upon your head, she is the feeling of a baby goat nuzzling up against your hand. She is the wet earth under your feet. She’s the feeling of simplicity in spring
Hephaestus. He is in the smell of oak from the fire pit you were roasting marshmallows over. He is in the items you use to craft a wind chime and other decorations. He is the feeling of satisfaction in your craftwork
Gaia. She is singing of the trees in the summer. She’s the feeling of being surrounded by trees and earth. She is the feeling of standing on a big rock barefoot. She’s the happiness you feel when you’re walking in nature
