Have a beautiful Day of Aphrodite aka Venus' Day aka Frigg's Day aka Friday 🌹
"From her breasts [Aphrodite] unbound the elaborate, pattern-pierced thong (himas), and on it are figured all beguilement, and loveliness is figured upon it, and passion of sex is there, and the whispered endearment that steals the heart away even from the thoughtful."
Iliad 14.159
🏛 #Aphrodite

Statuette of Aphrodite leaning on a column. There are traces of red paint in her elaborately braided hair. She is naked, only a string of pearls or beads gathering in her cleavage and decorating her breasts.

Not to commit hybris or anything but I really like this line I have written for #Aphrodite:
"I don't need a knife to pierce your heart, sweetling." Aphrodite smiled. "I take War to bed and I gave birth to Fear and Terror. You cannot frighten me, barbarian."

It's the Day of Zeus / Jupiter's Day / #Thursday! ⚡
"Wild his [Zeus'] desire had been for Kypris [#Aphrodite], when craving but not attaining he scattered his seed on the ground, and shot out the hot foam of love self-sown."

Red-figure vase painting of Zeus, seated and holding his sceptre, and Aphrodite, standing and leaning against a column. Her dress is transparent enough to see nipples, her navel, and the hint of a pubic triangle. On her arm sits a winged Eros, caressing her chin.

"#Aphrodite, they say, as she [after her birth in the sea] dropped anchor near Rhodes, was prevented from stopping there by the sons of Poseidon, who were arrogant and insolent men. The goddess, in her wrath, brought a madness upon them."
Diodorus Siculus, Library of History 5.55.4

Photo of a terracotta figurine depicting the birth of Aphrodite. The goddess emerges from an open scallop shell, depicted nude, seated with her legs tucked beneath, her long wavy hair falling onto her shoulders, looking at her reflection in a mirror held in her right hand, on a high cylindrical plinth. Some polychromy and white slip are preserved throughout. The nude goddess is raising her right hand holding her mantle, a dolphin below to her right, her lowered left hand on a column, preserving…

"Her gods and men call Aphrodite, and Aphrogeneia (the foam-born) because she grew amid the foam, and well-crowned Kythereia because she reached Kythera, and Kyprogenes because she was born in billowy Kypros, and Philommedes (Genital-Loving) because sprang from the members."
Hesiod, Theogony 176

Marble relief of the birth of Aphrodite. Two Horai (divinities of nature and the seasons) assist the goddess, pulling her up and clothing her. The piece, made from marble from Thasos, was in fact part of an altar.
