My friend and I are having a debate about how to pronounce her name so I want to know how others pronounce it as well :)
Tomorrow is my play so wish me luck, we are doing Little Shop of Horrors and like half of our cast is sick including the main character so I’m absolutely terrified. Anyways look at my newest pins that I got from my mom for making it past tech week.
My grandparents just got a new puppy! Her name is Freya and she is so adorable.
If you really think about it modern medicine is basically witchcraft. Like if a pharmacist were to go back in time and show people how we make medicine now, they would probably be burned at the stake. Someone mixes different items together to make items that cure different ailments. That is basically what witchcraft is!
I don’t have red hair irl but I do want to dye my hair red someday!

I would like to share my pin board! It’s still a work in progress but I love all of the pins on it <3
So I am bored and midterms are happening right now for me so I have decided to distract myself by sharing some random Greek Mythology facts. These might have some NSFW facts so I’m putting the facts under the cut
Fact #1: the word that is translated as virgin (ex: the virgin goddess like Athena, Artemis, and Hestia) is actually more like the word maiden. Basically the “virgin” goddesses aren’t forced to be virgins, they just can’t/don’t want to marry. The best example I can think of to demonstrate this is the muses, since they have several children (like Orpheus) but they are considered “virgin” goddesses.
Fact 2: the underworld in Greek Mythology is also known as Hades, like the god that rules it. Hades is also not the god of death, that would be Thanatos, Hades is the god of the dead meaning he decides what happens to them after they die.
Fact 3: despite the fact that incest and rape was common among the gods it was actually majorly frowned upon in Ancient Greece. Mortals were held to different standards than the gods and there are several myths that show how the Ancient Greeks found incest/rape between mortals taboo and wrong.
Fact 4: the depiction of gods/goddesses would vary depending on the city-state that was depicting them. One of the best examples is Athena, in ancient Athens they typically focused more on her relation to wisdom and crafts but Sparta focused more on her role in battle strategy and warfare.
Fact 5: Hestia was actually very important to the Ancient Greeks but she is not very well known because she’s only in maybe three myths. She was believed to stay in Olympus so she was never really shown during myths which makes it difficult to find information on her.
Fact 6: the actual way that Cerberus is spelled is Kerberos but Kerberos is also a computer system so Cerberus became the more common way to say the name so that people wouldn’t get confused.
Fact 7: the most common myth about Medusa (the one where she was assaulted by Poseidon and was turned into a Gorgon by Athena) is actually a Roman myth, not a Greek Myth.
Fact 8: the Phoenix did exist in Greek Mythology but instead of being red and orange like fire it was believed to be purple, because it was associated with Phoenicia which was famous for a purple dye that was produced from conch shells.
I think this makes sense for me but also I’m not sure. It feels kind of odd seeing this because I feel like happiness and honesty should be switched…but what do I know!
