Witch of Aiaia

Circe gets banished to an island called Aiaia after she admits to her father that she is a witch. She also admits to him that she was the one who caused Glaucos to turn into a sea god and Scylla to turn into a sea monster. So Zeus banished her to eternal exile because he was afraid that Circe was more stronger than him.

I have drawn Circe so many times and i've finally settle on a design that is largely different but I like a lot

theo I’m obsessed with your inaya art. it’s GORGEOUS especially the clothes. where do you get your references from to make them look so detailed?

i have a pinterest board that i add to like. constantly haha - any time i see anything interesting, whether its jewellery or fabric or whole outfits, i slap it in there ��‍♀️ ive been thinking of making a seperate section just for tbos bc i think at this point tbos references make up like. half the board 🧍‍♂️🧍‍♂️

@witch-of-aiaia @hella1975 and anyone else who cares

DO YOU THINK JUDAS GETS INTO HEAVEN

CAUSE I DIDNT SINCE THEY LOSE THE CASE BUT MY BUDDY SAID HE DOES SINCE THATS WHAT THE WHOLE JESUS WASHING JUDAS’ FEET SYMBOLIZES

and like i WANT him to go to heaven but i lowkey thought the whole point was he was in a hell he created and that it didn’t matter what God or anyone else thought. he was torturing himself. but like. i LIKE that he goes to heaven because of course God should forgive him, we see he is the least of God’s creatures most in need of love and forgivenesss—but why did it take so long?

so idk what do we think?

I would worship many more but

Dionysus [God of Wine, Theatre, joy and mental health. Etc]

Hermes [God of travel, messenger of the Gods, etc]

Artemis [Goddess of moon and hunting.etc]

Leto [Goddess of motherhood, mother of Apollon&Artemis]

Athena [Goddess of Wisdom and war]

Circe [Goddess of witchcraft and transformation, Witch of Aiaia]

The list goes on

name  .  circe  .  alias  .  aytaç  .  title/s  .  goddess  of  magic  ,  enchantress  ,  sorceress  ,  witch  or  nymph  .  divine  abilities  .  sorcery  ,  magic  of  transmutation  ,  illusion  ,  necromancy  .  age  .  thirty3  ,  ageless  .  orientation  .  pansexual  ,  demiromantic  .  status  . single .  languages  spoken  . all encompassing .

the  story  is  as  old  as  time  .  how  a  nymph  ,  a  divine  daughter  ,  fell  in  love  with  a  mortal  man  .  how  ,  with  her  heart  upon  her  sleeve  ,  she  fed  him  the  sap  of  a  magical  flower  tinged  with  the  blood  of  a  titan  ,  and  transformed  him  into  a  god  .  only  to  have  her  heart  shattered  ,  crushed  ,  as  if  she  had  never  meant  a  thing  to  him  .  and  instead  ,  he  had  found  favor  in  the  eyes  of  another  ,  a  cruelty  that  sparked  that  jealous  rage  deep  within  circe  ,  who  had  used  her  divine  abilities  to  seek  the  vengeance  that  she  had  so  craved  ,  thirsted  for  ,  despite  how  she  should  have  been  anything  but  .  a  notion  that  came  with  the  declaration  from  her  father  ,  and  from  the  most  grand  of  gods  ,  who  had  sentenced  her  to  her  exile  upon  the  island  of  aiaia  .

it  would  be  upon  this  island  ,  in  the  dense  of  the  forest  ,  that  circe  would  hone  her  abilities  .  thrive  amid  the  creatures  that  called  the  island  their  home  ,  who  found  favor  under  her  gentle  touch  .  even  those  of  men  who  had  found  themselves  upon  her  shores  ,  and  eventually  within  the  pen  she  had  crafted  for  them  ,  the  swine  that  they  had  become  allowed  to  root  within  the  mud  .

until  favor  found  her  ,  as  the  times  shifted  with  the  mortal  world  ,  until  she  found  herself  among  the  gods  and  deities  once  more  .  in  a  world  that  held  so  much  similarity  to  the  one  they  had  slipped  from  .  and  it  was  in  this  new  world  that  she  would  shed  her  old  skin  ,  like  a  venomous  serpent  ,  until  she  could  become  something  more  ,  something  grander  than  what  she  had  been  to  the  immortals  .  a  creature  that  no  longer  feared  their  reach  ,  that  did  not  cower  or  wonder  what  sort  of  curse  could  be  set  upon  her  shoulders  .

"Circe dreams, holding philtres in her hands...and her panthers have almost human glances."

Illustration by Edmund Dulac for 'L'Illustration', December 1911.

Circe in Greek mythology is an enchantress or witch. Her most notable appearance is in Homer's Odyssey. Odysseus arrives on the island of Aiaia, home to Circe. She turns his crewmen into swine.

I’m sorry but the bakudeku in this season truly is bananas. like why did they write this. ‘bakugo katsuki. if there’s just one thing I’m interested in about you, it’s that you’re the person closest to midoriya izuku right now. in that case, he’ll definitely come back here.’ ‘I have to win…right, izuku?’ ‘my whole body hurts. fighting while in pain, trying to spot the enemy’s tells…you already went through all this, didn’t you? hey, izuku…can I still catch up to you?’ bakugou having deku flashbacks MID-BATTLE. the all might card. deku looking like THIS when bakugou was injured:

and getting so angry that his eyes started GLOWING and mirio had to calm him down like ‘HE’S GETTING MEDICAL ATTENTION PLEASE STOP SHAKING THE EARTH WITH YOUR RAGE.’ and I’m not even finished the season yet what is going on!!!!

IM AWAREEEEEEE
