YO, AGNI AIN'T AN ADITYA?! I THOUGHT HE WAS INDRA'S BRO ALL ALONG WTF

TvT FIRST VAYU THEN AGNI IM DED

Can you tell me who all are the Adityas and what are they a God of? (asking for research purposes, and I don't trust wikipedia)

NUHHHHHH

His dad is Brahma 😌✨ (most of the times) but he does get's considered as an Aditya sometimes too....

Noi Indragni are boyfriends 🗿✨ (it's canon)

Ok so the Adityas are all solar deities ���️✨ like Surya 🌞 is the complete God of Sun as you know (he got too many names like Vivasvat or Bhaskar or etc etc)

But then Indra is associated with rain 🌧️⛈️ thunder⚡⛈️🌩️ and clouds ☁️✨

Vishnu gets the special place of being the ✨preserver✨ (Mitra is also considered preserver)

Varuna get's the sky 🌌, oceans 🌊✨ and water 💦🌊💧✨ (don't confuse him with Samudra that guy's different)

Mitra our very own God of ✨ friendships ✨🤝

Then there's Pushan, he's the God of marriage ✨, cattles 🐄🐂🐃 also I think and the journey of humans to afterlife... Or just journeys if I remember correctly

Then there's Aryaman he's the lord of tribes and stallions and customs Ig but sun ☀️ too ofcourse

Then Savitr he's also Sun God ☀️🌞, sun rays etc etc ✨☀️✨

Bhaga is there, I forgot but ig he's supposed to be like Aryaman like God of ✨ prosperity and marriage ☀️✨ and stuff

Hmmmm I forgot if there were anyone else... But I'm sure I'm missing someone or the other..

Was Tvastar considered an Aditya?? I forgot... Sorry 😭 but know he's the builder God... Sometimes he get's confused with Vishwakarma too but they are different (he's the daddy of Vritra)

Actually yk you can sometimes trust Wiki but yeha don't do it too much

[h0bg0blin-meat]

Btw why Pushan's wiki page says his husband is Surya?? 😭

New ship unclocked or is he the infamous Suryakanta???

Sadly that Suryaa, hence the "ā", who's Surya's daughter 😭😭

But ykw we can still ship them cuz they are close ☠️

So remember the Medusa in MB AU we were discussing in the comments of the Zombie AU post the other day? @chahaa-piun-ja and @friend-shaped-but

I have been thinking about it a lot, and now I have a detailed outline for it (this is only part 1):

1. Perseus, in order to free his mother, pursues the Gorgon Medusa, helped along by Athena and Hermes.

2. Medusa learns about it beforehand, and realizing it would be almost impossible to defeat a demigod son of Zeus who is backed by two Olympians, does the sensible thing and bolts. Her sisters, who are immortal, go to Phorkys to hide.

3. Unfortunately for her, one of the gods helping Perseus is Hermes, god of roads and travellers, so all types of accidents keep happening her on the way.

4. In the end, she makes for the sea where hopefully Poseidon would look the other way, climbs into the cargo hold of the first ship she lays her eyes on (because she can't really talk to people) and books it.

5. But an Olympian's ill-will is hard to shake off, so even though Hermes is no longer actively trying to hinder her, she ends up far from Greece and in India, turns a bunch of people into stone when she disembarks, and then horrified with herself, disappears.

6. Medusa wanders about for a bit, veiling her face* and going out only at night, and ends up in Jarasandh's hands when he is beseiging the Yadus. Jarasandh does not really like Medusa, he is even a little afraid of her, so he sends her to Dhritarashtra in Hastinapur. The idea is that either she turns everyone in the palace into stone, creating a power vacuum in Hastinapur which Jarasandh can take advantage of (because the Kauravas and Pandavas are going to fight) or Dhritarashtra and Gandhari (both blind) use her to get rid off their political opponents and reward Jarasandh by becoming his ally against Mathura.

7. Unfortunately, in this whole journey, another bunch of people get turned into stone, and news reaches the Hindu Gods, who are all very confused about this random, undocumented issue that popped out of nowhere, and which was not supposed to happen dammit! Indra calls for a council meeting, where Pushan, god of roads, agrees to try and look into her history and where she came from.

8. Medusa meets Dhritarashtra, who is overjoyed by her existence and immediately offers to help Jarasandh against Krishna. He is, in fact, so pleased with her powers that Medusa is flattered beyond belief (even though she knows he's going to use her) and agrees to turn all of Dhritarashtra's enemies to stone. Krishna, now trapped between two powerful empires, retreats from Mathura and brings the people to Dwarika, putting more distance between himself and his enemies.

9. Krishna weds Satyabhama in Dwarika, after they kill Narakasura. Unfortunately, Narakasura's son Bhagadatta, King of Pragjyotisha, immediately becomes their enemy. Less unfortunately, Indra remembers Krishna exists, and pleased with Narakasura's death and Swarga's freedom, forgets about his insult and becomes his friend again. This is how Krishna finds out about the widespread pertrification of people.

10. Meanwhile, Pushan, in his enquiries, runs across a very angry Hermes, who rants to him about how Some People^(TM) need to listen to their King and think about the consequences of their actions and that is an actual monster UNCLE!! This is how the Hindu Pantheon learns about Medusa and the Greek Pantheon realises where she's hiding.

11. Fortunately, Perseus is still raring to go kill Medusa and free his mother. Unfortunately, Indra and Zeus are now locked in a political headlock because Zeus cannot keep his monsters within his kingdom and Indra refuses to let a random greek demigod (who just so happens to be the son of the other God of Thunder) show up in India, insisting Krishna can take care of it.

12. Zeus sends Athena and Apollo and Hermes to intercede on his behalf, Indra sends Krishna, Mitra and Saraswati. They agree to let Perseus kill Medusa, but his fame will be shortlived in human memory, and in return, Dionysos will not show up to attack India. Zeus and Indra are unimpressed with these terms, because Zeus refuses to deny his son his well-deserved kleos, and Indra refuses to let intruders into India, whether Perseus or Dionysos. It kind of spirals out of control from there.

13. Meanwhile Duryodhana** and Medusa are having the time of their lives turning people into stone, although Gandhari thinks they shouldn't be using this ability so indiscriminately. So far their victims include Vidura, Kunti, Yudhisthira and Bheem (I'm sorry, they'll recover, promise). Dhritarashtra is conflicted about all of this, because at the end of the day these people are his family, but he doesn't protest either.

14. Arjuna, Nakula and Sahadeva are left alone because Dhritarashtra refuses to allow them to be petrified; not only are they not competitors for the throne, but they could also be prevailed upon to become assets. They are not idiots though, so they leave for Madra, to take asylum under Shalya. Bhishma is given to understand that this is a sickness/disease, but he has his doubts.

*I don't really know whether you have to look into Medusa's petrifying eyes or just gazing at her face overall is enough, so she has a full face veil of a very dark colour. She had the idea for this when she noticed other women wearing this and remembered that Greek women also used veils. In true Indian soap opera style, she has a black veil so everyone knows she's the villain.

**Duryodhana operates through his father, because Dhritarashtra refuses to let him see Medusa. So although he might ask for a lot of things, Dhritrashtra almost always has a say in what happens.

Random Vedic Astrology Observations

Adele who is Ardra Rising and Lana Del Rey who is Ardra Sun both have a Paradise tattoo on the side of their hand

This is very interesting symbolism because Ardra nakshatra is preceded by Mrigashira nak which follows the fall from Paradise.

2. Pisces natives 🤝🏼 sculptures

L to R

Rihanna- Revati Stellium (including Moon & Rising)

Ava Gardner- Ketu in (1 degree Pisces) Purvabhadrapada

Bella Hadid- Ketu in UBP

Rosie Huntington Whiteley- UBP Mercury & Rahu, Mars in Purvabhadrapada (0 degrees Pisces) and Jupiter in Revati atmakaraka

Jin- UBP Moon

Isabelle Adjani- Revati Rising

Salma Hayek- UBP Moon

3. Jyeshtas really love jewellery

Vidya Balan- Mercury in Jyeshta (atmakaraka)

Rekha- Jyeshta Rising

Kim Kardashian- Jyeshta Rising

Nicki Minaj- Jyeshta Sun

4. I'd earlier made an observation about how Mars influenced men tend to go after older women and I thought I'd add a few more examples to that list!!

Sachin Tendulkar & Anjali Tendulkar have an age gap of 6 years and their wedding was hugely controversial when it took place in the 90s. Sachin was only 22 when he got married.

Sachin has Mars in Dhanishta atmakaraka and Moon in Purvashada amatyakaraka

Shikhar Dhawan and his ex-wife Ayesha Mukerji have an age gap of 10 years.

Shikhar is Dhanishta Rising, Mars in Chitra atmakaraka with Purvaphalguni Moon

Arjun Kapoor and Malaika Arora have an age gap of 12 years

He is most likely Chitra Rising

He also has Venus (amatyakaraka) conjunct Rahu in Bharani

I know that Bharani is Venus ruled but Bharani is the confluence of Mars & Venus energies and is ruled by the Mars ruled Aries and is another nakshatra that commonly appears in the charts of men drawn to older women

Aditya Pancholi is 6 years younger than his wife Zarina Wahab

He has Sun in Purva Ashadha, Venus amatyakaraka (in Jyeshta) Jupiter in Bharani and Rahu in Mrigashira

Karan Singh Grover is 6 years younger than Bipasha Basu

He has Moon in Dhanishta, Mars (amatyakaraka) conjunct Saturn (atmakaraka) in Chitra with Ketu in Purva Ashada

Vicky Kaushal is 5 years younger than Katrina Kaif

He has Venus in Mrigashira, Mars in Dhanishta, Jupiter (amatyakaraka) in Bharani, Ketu in Purva phalguni

Farhan Akhtar and his first wife, Adhuna Akhtar have an age gap of 7 years.

Farhan has Sun (atmakaraka) conjunct Mercury (amatyakaraka) in Purva Ashada and Saturn conjunct Ketu in Mrigashira

5.

idk if im crazy but i think these 2 women have similar features 😭😭

Zhou Xun is Chitra Sun, Anuradha Moon, Swati Mercury, Chitra Venus & Mars

Ning Ning is Chitra Sun, Bharani Moon, Swati Venus and Ketu in Anuradha

6. Rihanna has a tattoo of Goddess Isis on her chest

Rihanna is Revati Moon and Goddess Isis had powers like love, healing, fertility, protection, wisdom and magic. By virtue of her magical knowledge, she was said to be "more clever than a million gods". Revati nakshatra natives are endowed with divine spiritual wisdom and the deity of Revati, Pushan is the Sun-god in the form of Divine Guide and Nourisher, who helps us to find the right path and leads us to the right solutions.

Revati represents wisdom, empathy, unconditional love, fertility, growth, prosperity & spirituality.

7. Harry Houdini was a Hungarian-American escape artist, illusionist, and stunt performer, noted for his escape acts.

He has UBP Sun, Mrigashira Moon, Venus in Revati (exalted) and Ketu in Swati with Shravana Rising

Swati is connected to Maya or illusion so it makes sense as to why someone who has Ketu placed there would become notorious for hoodwinking the public.

Mrigashira nakshatra involves HEAVY themes of running away, escape and being trapped AND finding a way out. If you look at the mythology, its about Brahma's favourite daughter who takes the form of a deer to leave the heavens and run away to the earth to escape her father's sexual advances towards her.

Pisces rashi is almost always present in the charts of magicians or people who have some kind of illusory appeal on the public. Most mega successful celebrities have prominent Pisces placements, most supremely talented actors and singers do. The ability to put yourself out there yet remain completely mysterious and keep people under a veil is a uniquely Piscean trait.

Obviously with that Shravana Asc, he was basically born for this job. Moon dominant people are ADEPT at manipulation and making black seem like white or vice versa.

Dua Lipa recently released a song titled Houdini and she's Punarvasu Moon which I think is another nakshatra that is good at casting illusions.

Revati ☽ T ☯︎day

“Pushan, a solar deity, similar to Surya god, is considered main presiding deity of this asterism. He is supposed to light up all paths. This gives him rulership over as diverse a thing as streetlights, which light up road, a lighthouse, which keeps ship from getting lost, to rulership of inner light of soul, which lights up one’s life-path.” - The Book of Nakshatras by Prash Trivedi

Yin and Yang represent the balance of opposites—light and dark, passive and active, chaos and order. They are interconnected, constantly shifting into one another, showing that nothing is purely one thing. Revati, the final nakshatra, embodies a similar transition between endings and new beginnings. Its Yin aspect is seen in its connection to moksha, the unseen realms, and its ruler, Pushan, who guides lost souls. Its Yang energy appears in its association with abundance, prosperity, and fulfillment before dissolution. Like Yin and Yang, Revati bridges cycles, moving from ♓︎ (the end) to ♈︎ Ashwini (the start)). It carries both stillness and movement, making it a guiding light in the endless flow of existence.

Vedic astro mini post

Uttara Ashadha ☀️

I always admired the simple, unwavering confidence of this nakshatra and its natives, but over time it's become more and more clear how lonely this nakshatra truly is, and how it's okay with it. 🙂

Sun individuals, in particular, may feel this type of melancholic yet content loneliness. I have Uttara Phalguni ascendant, I know. I've come to observe that natives with nakshatras associated with sun(not just sun tuled nakshatras) tend to experience this, or at least, appear that way.

Ashwini, Sun's exaltation

Krittika, the first sun-ruled mansion

Magha, the first mansion of Leo

Purva Phalguni, the second mansion of Leo

Uttara Phalguni, the second sun-ruled mansion, partly in Leo

Hasta, ruled by the sun god Savitar

Uttara Ashadha, the last sun-ruled nakshatra

Revati, ruled by the nourishing form of sun-god, Pushan

Sun is the planet of individualism and individuation. It sees the world through its own self-centered eyes, observing everything, shining its light indiscriminately on everything, but staying alone, away from it all.

Uttara Ashadha in particular is a very simplistic nakshatra, the simplest(in a good way), in my opinion. If you're familiar with the basic associations of nakshatras, the first words that might come to your mind when thinking of Uttara Ashadha are victory, invincibility, confidence... Uttara Ashadha is the only nakshatra that does not have a yoni consort(mongoose yoni), and is averse to everything that tries to tie it down or pull it in(those are the themes of saturn, sun's enemy planet, the force that demands obedience). That invincibily requires standing your ground and having the bravery and stability within yourself to go for insubordination, and the price you pay for it is loneliness. But then again, we are all alone, we are all individuals, and as long as you feel content with being alone, you are never lonely.

So Phaunus (Greek god of forests) was in Dio's army which makes me thing

Phaunus vs Aranyani duel ft. Pushan 👀 (and perhaps Vasant)

HELL YEAHHHHHHHH

They're prolly gonna fight like this but more violent

Vasant with his big big man eating plants helping Aranyani 😌😌😌

[h0bg0blin-meat]

Ok I propose a new old idea

The type of voices the Dieties have...

Vishnu: As sweet as honey yet regal as fuck.. like when he speaks even if he speaks things you don't understand you'll feel like “wah kya samjhaya hai”

Shiva: DEEP AF voice but also as soft as the cottons. If you just play music, all his words will automatically feel like lyrics

Brahma: Naturally low toned, calm voice and sounds mature.... Like more than normal typa mature... As if your father have pulled you aside to tell you how he had experienced life.

Varuna: When normal sounds like ocean waves dancing but kinda high pitched... But when angry and he speaks to you, it's as if you are struck in a tsunami or a tornado

Indra: His voice is actually very very sweet and jiggly like the rain... The kind of rain people enjoy listening to. But when angry it's rumbling like thunder, an word is enough to scare the shit out of you

Mitra: Deep voice but it also gives you a sense of home, a feeling you get when someone understands you, someone puts an hand around your shoulder and smiles at you... A feeling of having a friend.

Parvati: Soft sweet voice. The one your mother uses when she's happy with you. If she speaks, you will just want to curl up in a ball and ask for food. You'll feel like a child if she speaks to you. But her ferocious forms speak so different you'll feel like someone is painfully tearing you up into pieces just from words..

Saraswati: She sounds like that one teacher you were sure would clear all your doubts with a calmness you never understand how it was everlasting. She just doesn't know how to speak angrily. Even when she's angry she'll speak in such a manner you'll feel guilty for making her angry (this method is tested and proven on Brahma)

Lakshmi: She just calls you poor in all the existing languages lol.... Ok no but she speaks so regal it sounds like if you pour a ton of coins on the ground. Really. But also you'll just keep wanting to listen to her.

Ganga: Soft like the river flow when she's really really nice. But also wild, unstoppable, and sharp like the cutting sharp streams of the river Ganga.

Vayu: Whispery, windy tone like the air. Softly speaking to make you feel safe and happy. But it also changea according to his mood. Like when he's angry it's storm it gives you no corner to hide, if he's sad it's monsoon wind.. cold and you don't really like ot much..

Surya: His voice is...umm Bright. Like literally. When he speaks it's as if the window was open and the sun rays smacked you across your face waking you up from sleep. But also his voice is warm and gives a feeling of safety.

Chandra: Cold. His voice is cold. But not in a bad ignoring manner cold. It's the cooling effect you get on summer nights, the peace you get when you look at the night sky ans spot the moon. It's soft and melodious and beautiful just like the moon. But if you look closely it got some spots in it. And sometimes his voice cracks... Not because he's in pain or sadness, it's just a natural thing for him.

Varuni: She just sounds drunk. No I mean she definitely speaks normal but also her voice makes YOU drunk. Maybe take it in a romantic way or whatever but it's true (it works, Varuna agrees)

Vasant: Deep voice like the tree trunk but also soft like the flowers he wears around his neck. He makes you remember home, gives you a longing for home, but alao makes you feel at home.

Kama: He speaks to you in a way that makes you feel loved. No not necessarily romantic love but all kinds of love. You just feel loved. Also he used terms like “love” “sweetheart” “dear” in regular conversations so yeah...

Rati: Contrary to popular opinion no she doesn't sound lusty 24/7. Well... Maybe a little... But she actually sounds really sweet and soft like a childhood friend or neighborhood sister

Aranyani: She sounds when gentle breezes blow and makes the forest trees dance, like the animals that makes sound in a forest... Can be scary sometimes but you'll also love listening to her.

Pushan: Like marriages bells, happy wishes, as if a letter came from someone you love. Don't know how to elaborate it but his voice gives a kind of joy, that you get when you know “haa ab life mein sab sahi hoga”

Kartik: Soft but somehow a bit awkward voice... like he's sure what he's speaking of but is he speaking the correct way? But if he's angry its War Cry. He'll tear you apart with words just like his mother.

Ganesh: Sounds like that topper backbencher kid. Knowledged asf but also mischievous but you'll like listening to him thou, it's like having a cousin at a boring family function.

Devsena/Shashthi: She also sounds like a mother but she sounds like she's coddling and pampering you, spoiling you with all kinds of foods and stuffs, she not just sounds like a mom but she'll make you feel like a smol baby too.

Lmao it's long sorry and I know I didn't cover most... Whom should I add next?

*sobs* THIS IS SO BEAUTIFUL.

The way you explained all of these 😭

No words.

Perfect!

Next you can add Shukra, Budh, Ila/Sudyumna, Yama, Agni, Ayyappan, Ashvins, Aryaman, Vac, Dyaus, Alakshmi, Yami, Rudra, Savitr and more if ya want! :D

I LOVE THIS SO MUCH UGHHH

Im so glad with what you did with Indra, Mitra, Vasant and Varuni's voice HSJSKSKDJD SUITS SO WELL

Revati - The Path towards Light

Degrees: 16°40 Pisces to 29°60 Pisces Deities: Pushan, the nurturer, the God of safe travel; Vishnu, the preserver of the universe. Vimshottari Lord: Mercury Sounds: दे de, दो do, चा cha, ची chi The core meaning: you are the traveler. You venture along so many known paths and unknown back roads, in foreign lands or in spiritual realms. On your way, you help the less fortunate: the street person, the widow, the stray cat...

Deity: Pushan, the nourisher, a solar deity associated with protection, guidance, and safe travel

Nakshtra's guna: sattva (divine)

Revati's keywords: completion, nourishment, protection, safe journeys, spiritual fulfilment, compassion, and guidance

Symbol: a fish (sometimes also a drum), signifying rhythm, protection, and the flow of life. It represents the end of the zodiac, making it a nakshatra of completion, fulfilment, and transitions.

Governed by Pushan, the deity who ensures safe passage, Revati emphasizes spiritual growth, care, and the culmination of karmic cycles.

Career options: protection, care, creativity, or spirituality: healthcare, caregiving, and social work; music, dance, writing, and poetry; counselling, teaching, and mentoring; guiding professions such as travel advisors, cruise and leisure, marine tourism, naval services, coast guard, navigators and guides; spiritual teachers

Naksatras's strengths: compassion, generosity, creativity, strong intuition, spiritually inclined, protective and dependable nature

Nakshatra's weaknesses: overprotectiveness or excessive attachment; indecisiveness and difficulty letting go; vulnerability, overly idealistic or naive approach to life

Lagna (ASC) in Revati: these natives are compassionate, creative, and often spiritually inclined. They exude a gentle, nurturing aura and often dedicate their lives to helping others. These individuals have a natural talent for guiding and supporting others, making them effective counsellors, mentors, or empathetic leaders. However, they may struggle with balancing their idealism with practicality and can be prone to self-sacrifice.

Sun in Revati: bestows compassionate leadership and a strong sense of responsibility toward others. These natives are driven by a desire to guide and protect, often taking on the role of mentors or advisors. They shine in environments where they can serve others or contribute to the greater good, such as humanitarian or philanthropic efforts. The influence of Pushan, the deity of nourishment and guidance, enhances their natural charisma and ability to inspire trust. Key challenges for such a placement might include a lack of assertiveness or a struggle to gain recognition for their efforts. Additionally, such people can become overly idealistic, neglecting practical needs.

Moon in Revati: heightens emotional depth and sensitivity. These individuals are highly intuitive, empathetic, and nurturing. They have a natural inclination toward artistic and creative pursuits (arts, literature, writing), as well as a profound connection to spirituality and philosophy. Revati Moon natives often seek to create harmony in their surroundings and find fulfilment in helping others. Despite an intuitive understanding of spiritual and mystical matters, strong emotional intelligence, and the ability to connect deeply with others, they may be overly sensitive or prone to emotional overwhelm, leading them to retreat into their inner world when faced with difficulties or a conflict.

Mercury in Revati: amplifies communication skills, intellect, and creativity. These individuals have a quick wit and high adaptability. They typically excel in fields that require verbal or written expression, such as writing, teaching, or counselling. They have a natural ability to convey ideas in a harmonious and inspiring way, often serving as mediators or guides in their communities. On the flip side, those with such a placement may struggle with occasional indecision due to overanalyzing situations. Additionally, these individuals can become overly idealistic, losing focus on practical matters.

Mars in Revati: directs energy toward protection and service. These individuals are courageous, determined, and action-oriented, often channelling their efforts into causes that help others. They may have a deep connection to spirituality, using their strength to uplift and nurture those in need. Among the key positive traits here are protective instincts, willingness to fight for justice, and ability to balance assertiveness with compassion. Negative traits (if Mars is afflicted) include possible passive-aggressive tendencies or struggle with expressing anger or efforts constructively.

Venus in Revati: enhances a love for beauty, harmony, and relationships. These natives are romantic, artistic, and deeply compassionate. They are drawn to creative fields, such as music, painting, or design, and value meaningful connections with others. Pushan’s influence brings a nurturing quality to their relationships, often making them protective, devoted, and caring partners. Among the key challenges here are: over-idealization of relationships, leading to disappointment, vulnerability to being overly indulgent or escapist.

Jupiter in Revati: signifies wisdom, spiritual growth, and a nurturing nature. These individuals are natural teachers or mentors, driven by a strong sense of morality and a desire to uplift others and share knowledge. They are deeply connected to their spiritual path and often seek to create a harmonious balance between material and spiritual pursuits. On the flip side, these people may become overly idealistic or lose focus on practical concerns. Sometimes they have a tendency to overextend themselves in helping others.

Saturn in Revati brings a sense of discipline, responsibility, and endurance. These natives are often drawn to activities that involve long-term care, guidance, or humanitarian efforts. They naturally possess quiet strength (resilience) and patience and are highly reliable in supporting others through challenges. Challenges here include being sometimes emotionally restrained due to taking on too much responsibility and struggling with letting go of rigid structures and routines, and excessive control.

Rahu in Revati creates a strong desire for spiritual growth and fulfilment. These individuals often possess natural charisma, which helps them gain attraction, and seek innovative or unconventional ways to achieve their goals, driven by a restless need for meaning. While Rahu can amplify ambition, its placement in Revati also brings an innate sensitivity and a longing for harmony. However, at the same time, these people can be quite restless and can have difficulty finding contentment in material pursuits. Apart from that, there might be a tendency to overreach or pursue goals impulsively.

Ketu in Revati: reflects spiritual detachment and wisdom carried from the past lives. These individuals often have a deep intuitive understanding of the mystical and metaphysical realms. They are introspective and may feel disconnected from material concerns, focusing instead on spiritual fulfilment and higher goals. Key challenges with this placement include a struggle with grounding themselves in practical matters and a tendency to withdraw from relationships or societal responsibilities.

Paxuson Part 1: Introduction and Comparison of Cognates

A god of bidirectionality, of liminanlity, paths, doorways, travelers, wealth, shepherds, animals, and fertility. His name means "protector" and his direct linguistic cognates are Pan and Pushan.

Pan, Lord of the Wilds

Pan is the god of the wild, shepherds and flocks, rustic music and impromptus, and companion of the nymphs. He is also recognized as the god of fields, groves, wooded glens, and often affiliated with sex; because of this, Pan is connected to fertility and the season of spring. His origin and source of worship was in Arcadia, an isolated mountainous region of the Peloponnese whose culture is . It is believed that Hermes was originally an epithet of Pan who split off early on and becomes a separate deity associated with boundaries, roads, travelers, merchants, thieves, athletes, shepherds, commerce, cunning, and messages.

Both Hermes and Pan have myths putting in them in relation to Apollon. Hermes is characterized as being nurtured by Apollon who acts as a sort of patron to the young god. Pan and Apollon had a famed music competition in the myth of Midas. Given that we have established Apollon as a cognate of Rudlos, lets keep this in mind.

Pushan by OverlySarcasticProductions

Pushan, The Far-Roaming Shepherd

God of meetings, marriages, journeys, roads, fertility, sheep, and cattle. He is called to stir sexual desire in the bride on her wedding day. He is often seen as a solar deity, although this is connected to his shepherd aspect pretty explicitly.

He was a psychopomp, conducting souls to the other world. He protects travelers from bandits and wild beasts, and protects men from being exploited by other men. He is a supportive guide, a "good" god, leading his adherents towards rich pastures and wealth. His chariot is pulled by goats.

While there are multiple versions of the tale, it is commonly said that Rudra knocks out Pushan's teeth at the Daksha yajna, although he doesn't seem to be the target of his rage.

Cernunnos, The Horned Lord

Cernunnos, A Gaulic deity, whose name is probably more accurately rendered as *Karnonos, meaning "Horned Lord". Through the Pillar of the Boatmen, the name "Cernunnos" has been used to identify the members of an iconographic cluster, consisting of depictions of an antlered god (often aged and with crossed legs) associated with torcs, ram-horned (or ram-headed) serpents, symbols of fertility, and wild beasts (especially deer).

Ceisiwr Serith has an excellent dissection of symbols and character in his Youtube video essay, Cernunnos: Looking Every Which Way. Cernunnos has been variously interpreted as a god of fertility, of the underworld, wealth and trade, and of bi-directionality. Cernunnos has been tentatively linked with Conall Cernach, a hero of medieval Irish mythology, and some later depictions of cross-legged and horned figures in medieval art.

Kurunta, The Deer Hunter

His name seems to be cognate with Hittite Kurunta. His sacred animal is the stag, although this was not exclusive to him. He is commonly depicted standing on a stag, and Hittite texts identify the god standing on the stag as the god of the countryside. In Yazilikaya, a tutelary god of nature (likely Kurunta as the god is accompanied by the antler sign) is depicted with only a crook. There are also parallels with Kurunta following behind a storm god, as seen in a sea of Mursili III and a relief from Aleppo. There are also depictions of Kurunta holding a bow and arrows, which outside of due to him being a tutelary god also connects him to hunting. The hunting aspect was also emphasized by Tudhaliya IV.

Pashupati, Shiva of the Animals

Over in India, particularly in the east, another cognate of Rudlos, The mighty Rudra, is widely known by his epithet and avatar, Pashupati, who may be related to Paxuson. The name means "Lord of the Animals". While he may be related to the pre-Indo-Aryan deity depicted on the eponymous Pashupati seal of the Indus Valley Civilization discovered in modern day Pakistan, I believe he may be a reflex, or at least influenced by, the PIE deity in question.

In the Atharvaveda, the fourth Veda and one of the later additions to Vedic literature, Rudra is described to be the lord of the bipeds and the quadrupeds, including creatures that inhabited the earth, woods, the waters, and the skies. His lordship over cattle and other beasts denoted both a benevolent and destructive role; he slew animals that incurred his wrath, but was also kind to those who propitiated him, blessing them with health and prosperity. He is also seen a tutelary deity, of the nation of Nepal in particular.

Have you ever heard of a psychopomp?

Psychopomps are mythical creatures, spirits, angels, demons, or deities (from any religion or culture) who guide newly deceased souls to the afterlife or underworld.

Examples include Anubis (ancient Egyptian god), Pushan (Hindu deity), Kharon (the ancient Greek ferryman), Mercury (ancient Roman god), Valkyries (Norse mythology), Xolotl (Aztec god), and the shinigami from Japanese mythology.

Páusōn

Or as I write it, Páuson. Also known as Páhuson (with a hard h like the h in loch) or Péh₂usōn. His name means "Protector".

Páuson is the god of shepherds, nature, doorways, roads, paths, traveling, animals, forests and hunting; He also acts as a psychopomp.

He is the god of the liminal, the in-between. He guards travelers, merchants, and other go-betweens. He guards herds, sources of wealth, as well. He may thus be prayed to both as an opener of the ways and as a giver of prosperity.

He is characterized as a liminal deity himself, being in a way an in-between between man and animal in the depictions of his descendants. The figure of the horned god corresponds well to how he would be depicted.

Finally, he seems to have had a connection to fertility and sexuality, especially granting sexual prowess

He also had the names K̑ṝnónos and Pṇtóspotis according to this source
