poured a libation of my last big swig of coffee to Apollon and asked for help resolving my headache. immediately got the loudest mental “TAKE PAIN MEDS” ever. heard, father 🙂↕️
"in euripedes aclestis there is a great quote in his confrontation with thanatos that I frequently use in which apollon challenges that death should only come for that which is ripe for it. this is part of the harmony of his divine song. he ages and matures things until they are ripe for their destruction, just as he holds off foul weather for the fruits to ripen to plant new seeds.
although he is the destroying force in nature, it is to a purpose, just as his warding the living from his destructive forces is to a purpose. destruction is necessary to breed life... as a destructive god (and preserving god by warding off these forces) he is the god of every natural force which destroys life."
destructive forces associated with apollon:
➼ god of locus and mice (which bring plague / famine)
➼ wolves
➼ winds
➼ fire ; loosely paired with the sun and its heat
➼ carrion eating creatures
➼ ravens
"artemis as the sustaining and nurturing part of nature is the energy of the natural world... ultimately she is that which is always propelling life forward. if apollon is the dance and the path, then she is the dancer and the one hunting prey down the forest trails. she vitalizes that which he orchestrates from the moment she receives the new life, and pursues forward each living being into growth as an bow launches and arrow."
life-giving forces associated with artemis:
➼ the provision of food, both through the hunt and lactation, even the welfare of crops
➼ "powerful females of the animal kingdom" such as bears, lionesses, even dogs, "who not only lovingly care for large litters but exemplify the protective and loyal part of her nature"
➼ creatures which represent the wealth of food, such as rabbits and hares.
➼ the way the moon increases and decreases, "in which the growth of life is aptly symbolized"

Apollon's hand on a lyre,
the warm light of morn,
the voice most placid.
Apollon's name
echoing through day, reaching in
and out on streams and on the chirp of birds.

A mão de Apolo na lira,
luz cálida da manhã,
a voz mais plácida.
O nome de Apolo
ecoando pelo dia, alcançando dentro
e fora dos riachos e no chilreio dos pássaros.
