It's the #DayOfZeus / Jupiter's Day / Thorsday! ⚡
"And now the day was spent, the hour stole on when one would doubt if it were light or dark, some lingering light at night's vague borderlands. Suddenly the whole house began to shake, the lamps flared up, and all the rooms were bright with flashing crimson fires, and phantom forms of savage beasts of prey howled all arou…

Zeus, wearing himation and chiton, seats on a diphros holding a thunderbolt in his right hand. The goddess Hera (named) attends the mythical birth. The wine god holds in his hands two torches, connecting, in this way, his divine nature to the fire and the light. Indeed, according to the myth, his mother Semele was burnt by Zeus' thunderbolt, and Dionysos was referred with the appellative of “Pyrigonos”, the one that was created by the fire.

🏛 #Aphrodite and #Eros, Terracotta statue, Arcelogical Museum of Catalunya

Terracotta statue of Aphrodite and Eros. Aphrodite is seated, a himation draped around her legs. Eros is depicted as a young boy, standing next to her, his arms wrapped around his mother's neck. He is smiling as he kisses her. Aphrodite holds him, her hand resting on his back, just below the wings.

Dear Europe and others,
I've had a busy day.
I had work all day - as a hospice chaplain taking care of dying people.
This morning my mother went to the hospital for testing related to her dementia. Then, in the late afternoon she fell and had to go back for more testing. She's OK now.
And ICE shot a woman who did nothing wrong. And will probably get away free.
I'd love to protest in the streets but I'm just trying to live. I'll do what I can.
