“Hermes, son of Zeus, who brings luck, slid in sideways through the keyhole and passed into the hall like a breeze in autumn, like a mist.”

I know I’ve asked this before but it was so long ago that I think it couldn’t hurt to ask again!

Are there any specific pieces of media (can be books, tv shows, movies, etc) that feature the gods that you would be interested in me reviewing and talking about??

I’m working on a few right now (yes Tea With the Gods is making a come back!) and making a list for what to possibly review in the future. So id love your input!

Also if you have any suggestions on other topics to cover def feel free to let me know! Thanks so much, my loves! 💖

In my dreams, Dionysus has a crooked jaw. He has horns that are uneven, and the tip of one horn seems broken off. He has scars on his chest, and his nails are most like claws. He is gorgeous, as always, and wonderfully kind. He speaks to me as an equal. He treats me like a person. And in his vibrant green eyes, I see a reflection of my own soul looking back at me. I could get lost within the forests those eyes contain, and staring too deeply, while tempting, could release some hidden part of me - something beastial and untamed.

Anthesteria 010.

There are many uncertainties regarding the Anthesteria that makes it a bit difficult to reconstruct the festival. In my comic I will adjust things to suit my story rather than trying to be as correct as possible. For one thing, it’s probably one month too late for the Anthesteria, since the festival took place at the end of winter/beginning of spring, but in my comic spring seems to have fully arrived already.

The first day of the festival was called Pithoigia, “jar-opening”, when people tasted their new wine. One account says that the Athenians used to bring samples of their new wine to the shrine of Dionysos in the Marshes and there mix it with water. The first mixed wine was offered to the god and while pouring the libation they prayed that the wine would be harmless and beneficial to them. I’ve borrowed parts from the Homeric Hymn 26 to Dionysos and the Orphic Hymn 50 to Lysios Lenaios to the priestess’ prayer.
