Adonie

Yesterday (19/20) was in July the second celebration of God Adonis, the first was in March.

During this day one untied the procession in which sacred pictures of God Adonis and Goddess Aphrodite were magnified through the streets of the city. All were surrounded by flowers and fruits; plus, “Adonis’ Gardens” were carried during the processions, i.e. terracotta vases with little plants to thrown overboard as offering.

July parties, as opposed to funerals in March, celebrated the Passional Love between Goddess Aphrodite and God Adonis.
