Description
Packaged by hand with a little thank you note & an info sheet on the goddess! FREE world-wide shipping! Environmentally friendly packaging! Circe. Goddess of magic, though also sometimes depicted as a nymph, a witch or an enchantress. in any case, she was associated with magic. She knew a lot about potions & herbs, & sometimes used this knowledge against her enemies & people who offended her, turning them into wild animals. Also refferred to as Kirke, her name is derived from the Greek verb kirko meaning to secure with rings or hoop arounda reference to the binding power of magic. Her story isnt an easy one. With a not so loving mother & an absent father who both feared her. After some unfortunate events her father eventually drove her to an island in the far west, Aiaia (Aeaea). Alone, abandoned & with problems all around, Circe could have chosen to meekly go about her business. However, she instead became a woman isolated by, but not ashamed of her powers. Circe taught herself to be a pharmakeia, expert in plant magic. She tamed the wild beasts on the island, including lions (panthers, etc.) & wolves. She took advantage of her isolation to develop her full capabilities. To the ancient Greeks & Romans, she was a powerful witch, highly skilled in necromancy, prophecy, illusion & magical herbalism. Turn to Circe to connect with your internal eternal witch & to petition her favor over all sorts of magic. The story on Circe is very long & interesting & I highly recommend that you look it up with your own time, as there is just so much to learn, & I honestly dont even know how to possibly sum it up in a single post so most of it comes through. I recommend Circe by Madeline Miller, its a beautiful retelling of her story. I see witches as women who have more power than society thinks they should have. They have an amount of power that makes society uncomfortable. They have gone beyond the very small space that society has put them in & they have said, 'forget that, I am going to create my own power. I am going to forge my own path. I am going to define my own life. & so, in that sense, I think we should all be witches. - @madeline.miller Art Poster Print - Circe V.1 Goddess Greek Mythology Witch Witchcraft Floral Pagan Wiccan Folk Home Decor House Warming Gift
