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.

Have a beautiful Day of Aphrodite aka Venus' Day aka Frigg's Day aka Friday 🌹
"Sokrates: Well, and is not Eros, the son of Aphrodite, a god?"
Plato, Phaedrus
🏛 #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.

Fun (but wet) day of trick-or-treating around downtown and some neighborhoods.
Little one was Rapunzel (specifically the Disney Tangled version), wife was Mother Gothel...
... And I was Vladimir (who collects ceramic unicorns)

Me, white male with a mustache and some stubble, wearing a horned "Viking helmet" and a black faux-fur cloak while holding two tiny toy unicorns.

A red raincoat is poking out from under the costume because it's raining.
