Persephone

  • I’m sorry I forgot to post this last month when I filmed it. I’m hoping there will be less chaos in my life going forward. Please forgive me if I seem more distracted than usual in this video, but this was the first time I filmed outside and I should have picked a less crowded

  • So this is the week of the historical Eleusinian Mysteries, which by my calculations started yesterday and will continue until Monday the 11th. The Hellenic Pagan group Hellenion has their monthly communal libation this Saturday, naturally to Demeter and Persephone this month. Fall is upon us now. Although in the Wiccan Wheel of the Year
