Sources To Learn About Hades

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 🎉

Hades And Creation Of The Earth

Hades and creation of the earth

In the early days of the planet, everything seemed like a vast sea of glowing lava, with the constant "destruction" of the rocks that were formed. This true inferno that reigned was given the name Hadean Era. Eons are the largest divisions of geological time, in which eras are allocated.

It was during the Hadean that the planet's atmosphere was formed (with a different composition, rich in gases such as sulfur, ammonia, and methane, and an absence of oxygen), and the first seas were created by volcanic activity after the frequency of meteorite and asteroid impacts decreased.

Hades And Creation Of The Earth

Lake Avernus, or Lago d'Averno, is a volcanic crater located in the Campania region of Italy, near the city of Pozzuoli. Its formation is linked to the intense volcanic activity of the area, which is part of the Phlegraean Fields volcanic complex.

The lake was formed approximately 4,000 years ago after a volcanic eruption created a deep caldera. Over time, the crater filled with water, forming the lake that exists today. The region remains geologically active, with fumaroles and other volcanic manifestations nearby.

In antiquity, the lake was associated with a gateway to Hades, described by Virgil as the door to the underworld in The Aeneid. It was believed that the waters of the lake were toxic and that birds could not fly over it.

Volcanoes are the children of the lord of the underworld. Hades is the transformer of matter beneath the earth, providing the foundation for all living beings. The lord of Tartarus is much more than the god of souls; he is the magnetism beneath the earth.

Relevance - July 15, 2024

Thanatos paid a visit and asked me... What is your relevance?

I think it's a bit egocentric to believe that we are the center of the universe, that we will live forever, and that we hold the absolute truth of who we are and who others are.

Well... We don't have the absolute truth of the universe, but we have the ability to discover what is true for us.

Here is the invitation to explore more of our own truth and let those egocentrics, who are eager to tell us what we should or shouldn't do, continue in their insignificant existence. We have no relevance to the universe, but we can choose who truly has relevance in our lives.

Khaire Thanatos 💀🌹
