I told this ancient myth in my own words; however, this is the actual myth of the start of the Trojan war.
Before I told the myth of the sunflower. I do focus on Love mystery as anyone reading this blog must know, however, if there is a myth you love, especially if a love myth, share it with me, I might love it, too.
I have told this story in video and this long poem is intended for spoken word.
Writing Siren Chants, my fantasy story featuring Aphrodite…
According to this interesting 🤔 😏 🙂 lip effect, my lips are Greek!!!! I thought it was funny when I saw this funny lip challenge but curiosity made me do it even though, I did not think anything of it 😅 😄 🙃 But, it says my lips are or Greek look, wide and expressive. 😆 🤣 😂 Do they have Cuban lip option? now I wonder, what would Cuban lips be like. 🤔 💭 🤔 oh I hto go get a DNA test, what if I have some Greek in there!!! Does expressive lips mean that I make faces? 😆 🤣 😂 So, did this challenge know of my Greek obsession? Ancient Greek obsession. Greek history, language, and mythology obsession? Does it know my love for the Greek goddesses and Sappho and poets and the greek clothing, and all the cool things? And Aphrodite but I think she’s not Greek. I liked this song which sounds to be Brazilian. #cachorrinhademadame#toktok#tiktokchallenge#2025#lipschallenge#evelovestar#fun#funny#greek#greeklips#funnychallenge#lol#funchallenge#funchallenges#challenge#challenges
I have not needed to journal lately, yet here I am with my newest goddess poetry and another parallel project (later, it’ll be harder to find even more lost poems, I am organizing the important ones).
On this blog I will expand on all these goddesses, and we will do a huge deep dive. So, let us get inspired by the goddesses.
This poem started it all. Artemis, a goddess I had wanted to write about for a long while. I learned a lot about Artemis before I could write this little poem. Yet I will be writing more to add to it.
Aphrodite
I will need to dedicate an entire post to this poem.
This poem just ended up talking about Aphrodite and Dionysus. It was unintended. We will talk more about this topic as well.
One of these ancient goddesses of love was the first nudist whether it was Aphrodite or not. I do not know who the first one was. I mean in an alternate to the bible reality.
In the bible, the first nudist is Eve.
One good way to observe Aphroodite is nude and also with foot on ground as the ancients did in Rome for the Venus festival per the ancient Roman poet whose reference one day I will find again because I lost it.
Athena
PDF of the collection will be available once I am done adding poems to it.
I am working on a secret project. Something I’ve wanted to work on for a long time. It’ll be a lot of work but I already started which is the hardest part. It’s the Lion’s Gate energy!
I can’t tell you what it is yet, but it involves poetry and ancient Greece.
In the meantime, I’ll show you my Athena and Aphrodite artwork in progress.
Aphrodite, ancient Greek goddess of Love, pleasure, fertility, and beauty
Athena, ancient Greek goddess of wisdom, War, and craftsAthena poem. Find me on X @evelovestar for more poetry
I’m putting both on my altar. This project is more than just art. Not only am I practicing the ancient Greek letters, but I also have a Roman inspired love altar project, and Aphrodite is Venus, so the artwork translates. Bye a
Scroll of wisdom from Pythia, who is in Delphi. The two first lines are said to have been inscribed in the Delphi temple. The last line is said to have been a Pythia oracle. The Pythia. Oracle priestess of Delphi
The Pythia became cool 😎 to me when I learned that she spoke in poetry.
My daughter told me I am the Pythia
😆 🤣 😂
I have a lot more ancient art to draw, I’ll be sharing it with you along with my poetry and the mysteries and wisdom I find in the books.
Yesterday, 12/21 we had the winter solstice happening for those of us in the Northern hemisphere. And what better way to start the Holidays than with a wholesome spiritual celebration? Spiritual celebrations have helped me get in the holiday spirit, which I lacked big time prior and I’m getting my children involved. My oldest is talking about celebrating Yule. 😁🌻🎄
Goddess oracle reading
I pulled 3 goddess cards to get a divine winter solstice message. I pulled Quan Yin, and the queen of Shiba with the full cup of affirmation which means a big yes! See the video through the link below for the card meanings.
On my podcast (Twin Flame Lovestars https://anchor.fm/eve520 ) I have talked about the winter solstice twice. On my last episode, I shared the goddess oracle card reading but with a twin flame twist. Listen for the twin flame messages which were beautiful. See links below 👇
Winter Solstice colors
This year I’m being called to work with yellow as inspiration for the sun during the Yule celebration and green to aid in heart activation with Quan Yin. Gold is good too to help with manifestation. I have been staying up late and waking up early to make my new yellow dress which I’m so happy about.
Holiday Decorations
Through the years I have not decorated for Christmas very much. I never really liked the consumerism of the holiday and the guilt and the force, you have to do this or else… I don’t like that at all and that is why my new spiritual celebration is so special, I have learned to get into the holiday spirit and through the holiday spirit I found the Christmas spirit.
This year we have a new Christmas tree. I have 4 children which is why I have even tried to celebrate the holidays. The children get super excited about it and they love to help, my little toddler gets so excited and he loves to decorate the tree and it’s really fun to decorate for the girls too, however, this year I started celebrating Yule and I have been watching so many awesome, incredible Yule videos on YouTube. See my link below for my Yule and Christmas playlist on YouTube. There’s so many good videos there from creativity and decor, food and more of how to celebrate Yule. I’m a newbie at Yule so you will want to know from people who have been celebrating for years.
This year I started decorating with cinnamon sticks and I loved having a reason to buy them because I only used cinnamon powder previously. I love the cinnamon smell. I also started decorating with star anise seeds wich I had a ton leftover from when I was breastfeeding because Star Anise is fabulous for milk production, the leftovers I had still smell delicious even though they’re a few years old, I used them to make garlands with my children and they absolutely loved the experience, we put garlands on our Christmas tree and also I hung them on the wall. It was super special, super fast and easy to craft these with the kids and the smell is just delicious. I will leave a few Links of some videos that I made with my kids about making the garlands and decorating our tree with them and some pictures of the decorations

As I started decorating for Yule, I noticed similarities between Yule and Christmas decorations, for example I had a Christmas advertisement come on my phone, because you know our phone listens to us and noticed how similar the DIY decorations were to Yule decorations, there was a garland with dried orange slices for example. Somebody who has no idea what Yule is asked me the other day what is up with the oranges at this time of year? The oranges symbolize the Sun and in Yule we celebrate the Sun during the winter so we’re expecting the sun to come back.
Another idea that I started using about 2 years ago is decorating the Christmas tree with pinecones, this year before Christmas I have a plan to take my kids to pick up pinecones at the park and they’re really excited about it. 2 years ago I made a video about making a pinecone garland to decorate our old tree, we only have some pinecones left from the garland and we secured the pine cones to our Christmas tree, I want more pinecones because there’s so many cute ways to decorate with pinecones such as adding some glitter painting them, etc, there’s many ideas in my Yule/ Xmas playlist ☝️.
An idea I have used for years and love is making beautiful ribbon bows and making my own bows to decorate presents and of course I love paper crafts so cutting snowflakes is something that we love to do. Ok also love making wrapping paper bows to ad to gifts. Since we’re still celebrating Christmas I expect to continue posting about my DIY ideas.
In the end the winter solstice was a great way to start the celebration going into Christmas and Yule I will be celebrating from the winter solstice until this Sunday after Christmas, to introduce more of the Yule celebration to my children, we will be reading myths and stories about the people who celebrated Yule and about the gods and goddesses that they celebrated.
And how wonderful that the celebration stretches into the new year week and of course the days off are wonderful and it also helps that children are off of school at the moment. This has become one of my favorite times of the year. Let me know how you are celebrating the holidays and what do you think about the Yule celebration?
Much love my beloved and may you have wonderful celebrations and create awesome memories and new traditions, talk soon,
