Thinking again about this four armed, four eared Apollo but in mundane situations

- Doing his long hair? Easier with four arms

- He can take ALL the muses into his arms at the same time :D

- Can play the lyre and the flute simultaneously - ultimate jam session buddy!

- He gets to wear more jewelry!!

- Perfect for a group high five

A lovely wine for Aphrodite, for any worshippers out there, is Commandaria. This is Cyprus' famed wine, with literal wars being fought for it, and I imagine it is dear to her heart. It is one of the oldest wine styles in the world, possibly reaching back to 800BC, and extends still in our time. A sweet wine for the honey-hearted goddess.

[kyprigeneia]

opening your heart to Aphrodite is like:

a sudden burst of self love, you look in the mirror and you see the best version of yourself reflected

a heightened sense of adoration for your partner - i just looked at him and was so overcome by the love i felt that i burst into tears

inescapable yearning for the ocean, the ocean, the ocean

seeing the beauty in even the tiniest of things - have you seen light reflecting from the droplets on a spiders web? that is ethereal.

feeling a little more vivacious in what you do, but also more gentle

realising she's been around you the whole time, you just had to open your eyes
