#sea gods

[boymanmaletheshequel]

All hail the ocean gods!

May all kneel humble to the gods of the oceans, the queens of the seas. Purveyors of the maritime, patrons of the sailor, and the arbiters of maelstrom! Bow to them, revere them, revel in them, sing your praises to the oceans blue, and respect the waters, the gods, the oceans incarnate! In all of their ferocious, intimate, powerful glory! Hark! Know the names Poseidon, Triton, Amphitrite, Aphrodite! SING TO THE OCEANS YOU!

Poseidon can I have a big dad hug?

Amphitrite: wait, isn't it more like a mother hug?..

Poseidon: ...

Amphitrite: you're holding them like a baby, in a mother way!

Poseidon: I'm never giving in to you ever again...

Picking up trash at the beach as a devotional act to the sea gods ♡

[countlesssorrows]

sometimes being devoted to aphrodite means noticing doves singing out of your house, them being always present wherever you go. sometimes it means bathing in the sea, thinking about how she was born. sometimes it means picking seashells to offer to her, thinking “she will love these”. sometimes it is just thinking about her and worshipping her silently. i love her soso much, because with her everything is so peaceful.

Water goddess mural I made a while ago. Dunno if I shared it before, so here it is while I work on my new commission sheets.

Inspired by the murals of the Diamonds from SU, specifically the ones of Blue diamond and White diamond.

[…] “He says the tides “seem to be growing every day”.

“I heard them say it’s global warming. I left school and ran away to go fishing, so now I don’t know what’s global warming, but the rains don’t come when it’s supposed to, the winds have changed,” James says.

“Maybe we offended the sea gods, I don’t know, but now I have to move my family inland,” he says.”

worshiping the Gods at the beach again today ♡

[small-chaos]

Hey guys! I was feeling creative, and I wrote a little something about a weird, spiritual feeling I had when I went on a night swim a couple of nights ago! I wouldn't exactly call it a poem, but it might be?

Anyway, have a read if you would like to!

Untitled, I guess

My friends and I went for a night swim at the ocean baths a couple of nights ago. 

This is usual for us. 

I end up being the only one out of the three of us who gets in the water. 

That’s fair. 

The cold chills their bones and the wind whips their hair, so there they stay at the pool's edge as the water swirls around their ankles. 

I move further, descending into the centre, finding myself at the very heart. 

The cold wraps around me like a blanket 

and it sinks into my bones,

I am warm.

I look to the ocean and I whisper a hello to the sea gods. 

I thank them for their presence, for their love and for their pain. 

They breathe life into this world.

They’ve looked after me since I was young. 

I love them. 

I tell them as much, with my head tilted up and my arms spread wide. 

The currents dance around me, fold me into their embrace, and I let them. 

The stars make themselves known, specks in the inky blackness behind.

I close my eyes. 

I breathe in

Somewhere, someone laughs. A dog barks. The seagulls sing. Children splash and play.  

Even in the dark of night, this place is 

Vibrant. 

Alive. 

I open my eyes. 

I breathe out. 

Two sets of blocky stairs descend into the water in front of me, and they are illuminated by the bewitching combination of moonlight, starlight, and the LED spotlights that shine down from the four corners of the pool. 

I am convinced that these stairs would take me somewhere incredible. They alight with hope, and their light mingles and dances with the darkness on the surface of the water.

They promise me safety, they promise me adventure.  

I do not heed their song. I do not follow their call.

Instead, I turn around

and slowly make my way back to my friends. 

They watch me approach with eager eyes, and I smile.
