Sources to learn about Hades

I’ve meaning to make this post for a while- the truth is that there aren’t a lot of books written exclusively about Hades so you either have you search for articles or read a book about all the chthonic gods to find information about Him. I’ve compiled all of the sources that I’ve found useful and I’ll keep adding more

“Hades: Cornucopia, fertility and death” by Diana Burton (Victoria University of Wellington)

“Worshipping Hades: Myth and Cult in Elis and Triphylla” by Diana Burton (Victoria University of Wellington)

“The Bride of Hades” by H. J. Rose (The University of Chicago Press)

please reply if you have a favorite book/article/documentary about Hades and I’ll keep updating this 🎉

Persephone 🥀💀

This might be a bit corny lol. Admittedly, I'm not really satisfied with how this turned out (might tweak things later maybe), but it's been so long since I've drawn anything and I wanted to get something out by Halloween at least, so this will have to do. u_u

A little offereing to Queen Persephone 🥀

Persephone has teaching me that the true altar is not in objects but in how I communicate with the beings around me. I really want to give the best statue of her, but it won't help if my relationship with the Queen is superficial 😅.
