This is Money Snake. She only appears every 312 years. 

If you reblog her picture within the next twenty-five seconds you will have good luck and fortune for the rest of your life. 

Persephone and Hades tending the soil after a harvest in order to ensure the bounty of the following year's harvest, maintaining the cycle of death and rebirth.

Persephone 🥀💀

Hermes

Some mistakenly believe that Persephone is merely a goddess of spring, but she is so much more. She is all the seasons. The maiden empress. Volatile, aromatic, divine goddess.

Where I live, it’s spring, but I feel a darker facet of the goddess. The sky has been cloudy for three days, and a shadowy movement approaches the rose pots. It’s Persephone with a sarcastic smile on her face. 'Oh... You thought this spring would be all pretty...'

Persephone is much more than just a goddess of spring...

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 😅.

When i moved into my new place there was mint planted directly into the flower bed which had grown out of control as it is an invasive plant. I spent about 5 hours digging it out and repotting it. there was more than i could pot so i froze and dried some too!!

the dried mint was the first thing i have added to my little apothecary and i’m very happy with it.

i gifted 3 pots to family and have kept the rest!

Named after the Water Nymph, Minthe which was super exciting when i moved in as i felt much closer to my Gods almost like a sign!!
