#different mythologies

In ancient Olympus, where gods of Greek legend roamed, Apollo's harp enchanted the skies. In El Dorado, the lost city of gold, Athena's wisdom and Ares' passion collided. Two souls, destined to mend, merged mythologies' threads, their love transcending time.

I was so busy geeking out about greek, Roman, Norse, and Egyptian mythologies that I totally forgot to do my research on Persian mythology which is so cool.
I need to read a lot of stories to learn it though; like how I learned other mythologies by reading uncle Rick's books. Any ideas where I should start?

I am so crazy about your Hermes and Athena designs! Your art is so good! Now I wonder what your Aphrodite looks like? 🤔
Quite a lot of people have asked for some Lady Aphrodite, so here’s finally some concept sketch for y’all !!
+ Bonus Eros🥺
#smth smth white hair bc white reflecting all light wavelengths#her hair shifting color under different lightings 🫶#leaned heavy into her oceanic themes#aphrodite#greek gods#greek mythology

It's always "Hades isn't bad or cruel, his deeds are just metaphors of the inevitable death" or "Hades kidnapping Persephone represent the premature death".
But when the argument "Zeus has numerous affairs and many children because he represent the fertile rain" is brought up, all nuance is suddenly out of the window and Zeus is just a womanizer who can't keep it in his pants.
#hades#zeus#greek mythology#greek gods#greek deities#cherry picking who should be condemned for their “crimes” and who can be excused because “their action is metaphorical”#just shows your ridiculous hypocrisy#if you're gonna judge the gods at least put all of them on the same standard#or maybe - i don't know - understand that you're not in the place to judge the deities from a different culture???#i admit i used to have a “Hades good/Zeus bad” phase too#but i'm growing out of it because in the end i'm only reading the stories from another country

since you did Stan and Hermes, why not Ford and Athena?
Perhaps he wrote about this in Journal 1 😁
#doctorsiren#gravity falls#epic the musical#greek mythology#stanford pines#pallas athena#mythology falls au#gravity falls fanart#epic the musical fanart#digital art#my art#procreate#doodle requests#yes I did just have ford draw the Athena ref page I made LMAO#and yes also I know I’ve drawn Athena sitting like that like 4 different times HAHA#how else is she supposed to have a casual and intellectual conversation with a mortal who is obviously shorter than her?? /silly#she’s chill and lets him make a page about her in his journal#and even models for it because she’s a homie like that

look i understand that humans are complex creatures who do bad things and are capable of learning from mistakes but also i think saying my ex should never get a good shag again is funny
#ramble#one of those mythology style punishments y'know#this sounds worse than it is without context#the 'separating bc of valid differences' is fine the 'leading me on and exploiting me out of a lot of time and money' is not#he never paid me back btw#every now and then i go through a period of being Very Not Fine before someone slaps some sense into me#like GENUINELY i don't wish death or misery on people but saying i want to hit them with a chair is funny sometimes

imagine a world where the heroes of olympus series was one big crossover. a world where we meet an eleven year old boy named jason, no last name because it reminds him of his mother — a drunk who literally threw him to the wolves as a toddler. jason, who's earliest memory is chewing on a stapler and his older sister tending to the wound on his bottom lip — but he hasn't seen or heard from her since they were separated years ago. jason, who grew up reaching for the sky like a purpose, desperate for a chance to prove himself. jason, who fought to save the world at fifteen years old. and jason, who finds himself in the grand canyon four months later with no memory of who he is or where he came from, feet away from some frantic sixteen year old girl in search of some dude named percy jackson. imagine what this could have been.
#one of the most frequent critiques i see about the lost hero is how the audience was introduced to character who's history was unknown#and i understand respect the approach rick chose#i mean#introducing the audience to a character they intially disregarded in search of a hero who couldn't be more different and respected and love#tricking the audience into treating him the way everyone else in his life must have (not that he remembers)#and for the audience to realize the severity of their ignorance in the wake his death#is such an amazing and heartbreaking payoff and i genuinely respect#but i think it would have been fun to grow with jason the same way we did percy#have a jason-centered seties based around roman mythology#running the same release time and story progression of percy jackson and the olympians#and then opening the lost hero for the first confused at why jason is without his friends from camp#then seeing annabeth's name and freaking out bc this will be the most epic crossover#percy jackon and the olympians#pjo text post#pjo#pjo headcanon#hoo text posts#hoo#hoo headcanon#chb campers#cj residents

Love can be as deep as an ocean and as shallow as a puddle, it can be as hard as ice or slip away like smoke through your fingers, as calm or as overwhelming as the waves...
Here my take on Afrodite
#aphrodite#afrodite#greek mythology#ancient greece#greek myth retellings#I put a lot of thought on her#As she is more a titan than a godess to me. Since she came from the sea and foam of the Uranus balls on my take#Its also part lion as a refference for other love gods from different places that she is kinda all at once and I LOVE IT!

Hey guys crazy idea but like Artemis and Apollo are Dipper and Mabel right? Right? Yeah I got carried away big time but like I think Gravity Falls + Greek Mythology is a banger idea so it's fine.
#trials of apollo#greek mythology#toa apollo#lester papadopoulos#pjo artemis#helios#selene#hecate#aura#khaos#being quirky and different by using the titan side of the family instead of the god side lol#also obvs some dynamics would change#like Artemis wouldn't have a crush on Aura bc they are literally cousins#quickfire of other characters: Gideon = Zephyrus#Pacifica = Nike#Fiddleford = Hypnos#Candy and Grenda = Chiron and Calliope#haha I love Gravity Falls#au#sunny speaks
