we remamber the truth

We remember the truth

Her name was the dread of the ancient world.

Her name was a forbidden one and in any case no one ever wanted to give it sound.

She was the Dark Goddess, the Mother Death, the horrible Nightmare.

She was the Grate Matron of the world of the dead.

Long before the parents of Hades and the rest of the underworld gods were conceived, SHE was there – ruling the dark kingdom of the underworld.

She is the one who makes sure every curse will reach its target… in a terrible preciseness.

Words of compassion were heard from her so seldom that in one lifetime you couldn't hear them twice.

Her enormous and powerful arms embraced the dead in their subterrestrial world forever.

The Greeks called her The Destroyer of Lights – Persephone.

The patriarch Greeks, like many other cultures that came after them, wants to tell us that the helpless Persephone was abducted and maybe even been raped by Hades. They will tell a story in which she was dragged and caged hopelessly in the kingdom of the dead.

They would have us think that her mother – Demeter – Mother Earth herself (!!!) was looking for her daughter helplessly and blindly and only by the favors of the sky gods – Zeus and a handsome sun god, she was able to retrieve her.

They want us to think that the feminine powers are helpless, victims, weak, have no real stand in the world and no ability to determine their destiny and fate.

BUT WE REMEMBER!

We remember differently and know the truth.

BLESSED BE MOTHER OF THE DEADS, GREAT AND TERRIBLE GODDESS!

BLESSED BE DESTROYER OF LIGHTS AND BEARER OF CURSES!

IN MY HEART YOU WILL FOR EVER HOLD THE THRONE OF HONOR, DREAD AND INFINITE LOVE!

HAIL PERSEPHONE!

HAIL FOREVER!
