A Month of Devotional Thought — Zeus, Day 10

Most of the time he is depicted in a chiton…

A Month of Devotional Thought — Zeus, Day 2

For me, the answer to the question of how I first became aware of most of the Hellenic Theoi would be the same as the answer to how I first became aware of Zeus. I grew up with the stories of the Hellenic Theoi as part of my cultural heritage, and as such, I really…
