My current love altar ❤️💕

[lovevviitch]

💖Today, Aphrodite urges you to write a love letter to yourself!💖

I swear, I’ve felt restless all day, and feel like I should share what she’s asked of me! So, here we go: Let’s all do something nice, and wholesome!

💋Decorate it! Whether you’re writing on paper, or in your computer, add cute margins, or sketches around the paper. Make it look good for you! Use your favorite color!

💋 Say hi! Imagine you’re sending this letter to your beloved, greet yourself with nice words!

💋What is something you love/want to love about yourself? Your amazing eyes? The hair that falls like a waterfall? Be as cheesy as you want, have fun!

💋Talk about a time you enjoyed spending time by yourself, and thank yourself for your company. You made dinner last night, and it was delicious? Talk about it, tell yourself how much you enjoyed it!

💋What are some things you absolutely love? Cats, running, procrastinating, lighting eggs on fire, whatever it is, put it there! Talk about why you love it, maybe even add pictures if you’re using a note app!

💋 If you feel specially creative, and are having fun, write a small poem to yourself! It doesn’t have to be good, it can even be funny, just write anything that will make you smile!

💋Ask yourself on a date! “Hey, me, do you maybe want to go take a shower now? Yeah? 😘”

💋Focus on having fun while writing, and just write about anything that makes you happy.

Above all, remember that even if all you can manage is “Hey, self, I wish I loved you. Take care.”, Aphrodite will be absolutely proud of you. And I’ll be too! If you feel good sharing the work you made, be sure to tag me! I’m excited about reading y’all! And I for sure will be posting mine later because it sounds really fun and wholesome.

Altar to my Goddess

A Hymn to the Mistress of Love and Desire

Homeric Hymn 6, “To Aphrodite” (author and date unknown)

  I shall sing of venerable Aphrodite, beautiful goddess with a golden crown,

To whom belong the battlements of all sea-girt Cyprus,

The place to which the moist force of the blowing Zephyr

Carried her through the waves of the loud-roaring sea

Amidst soft foam.  The Seasons with their golden headbands

Received her warmly and draped her in divine garments;

Upon her immortal head they placed a finely-wrought

Beautiful gold crown, and in her pierced earlobes

They placed flowers of orichalcum and valuable gold,

While around her delicate throat and white breast

They adorned her with gold necklaces, the sort that

The Seasons themselves wear whenever they set out

To the gods’ lovely dance and the home of their father.

Now when they had placed all the adornments around her body,

They led her to the immortal gods, who welcomed her

When they saw her and took her hand in greeting,

Each one praying that he would lead her to his house

As his wedded wife, as they admired the beauty

Of Kythereia who wears a crown of violets.

  Hail, o quick-glancing, sweet and gentle lady; grant that I

May take the prize in this poetic contest,

And set my song in good order, I pray you.

But I shall remember both you and another song, too.

Mars Disarmed by Venus and the Three Graces, Jacques-Louis David, 1824

I saw these beautiful flowers today that made me think of Aphrodite 💕🌸

[lovevviitch]

Updated-updated Aphrodite Altar.

Okay so maybe I’m always redecorating Hers.

New stuff I bought/added:

A cute little organizer for my makeup. It’s got roses on the front and it spins!

Rose oil with flower buds in it.

Mermaid nail polish that reminded me of her.

I made a sea shell/perfume bottle/faux flower arrangement??

A shell painting done by my aunt. (The same one who did the lilac that is on Hermes’ altar.

I’m super happy with it and I think She is too. :D

Remember that Aphrodite loves you and thinks you’re the best. Keep making her proud, my lovelies!

Repurposed an old earing box to store my (other) dried rose petals! Guess who influenced it.

Hey

If you’re an Aphrodite or even partially an Aphrodite devotee blog that’s not run by someone who constantly posts about how much the Goddess must hate trans women or trans men, can you like or reblog this post?

I really would like to find some more devotee blogs but I can’t seem to find more than five or six that aren’t like that on my own, and I really would rather not follow someone who brings bitter anger towards complete strangers onto their devotee blog just because those strangers are transgender.
