Thinking About Cadmus And Harmonia Again.

Thinking about Cadmus and Harmonia again.

One thing that I specifically find interesting about it is that the reason why Cadmus got turned into a snake was because he killed a sacred dragon. In a more poetic way of explaining, he as a human abused/defeated nature, and as a punishment for that he lost his human power to control nature. It's also interesting to notice how, while both the animal he killed and Cadmus are referred to as serpents, people tend to imagine the serpent Cadmus killed as a dragon (a symbol of might and power), and Cadmus himself as a snake (a being which usually has a fragile body, that humans instinctually kill in order to protect themselves, wheter or not that snake is actually venomous).

Furthermore, the fact that Harmonia was a goddess and yet she willingly gave up her divine form just so that she could remain together with her husband shows how there are individuals who would choose to suffer as long as they're surrounded by their beloved ones rather than live a good life alone. They two have the bittersweet ending many people would like to see in other couples from Greek Mythology, yet for some reason Cadmus and Harmonia end up being called "boring" most of the time.

What Aphrodite did to Helen is horrible, absolutely. Yet I would never be able to get over that one scene where Helen recognizes Aphrodite after "her desirable breasts".

The way I instantly began to think of Circe, Bloody Mary and Elaine Parks. 😑

Aura: Also your breasts look like those of a pregnant woman.

Artemis: ...

Aura: But mines are small, because I'm a pure virgin.

Artemis: Enjoy them until they'll start to look like those of a pregnant woman too.

Aura: What?

Artemis: You'll know what I ment sooner or later.

Aura: Artemis, you're so pretty. I'm not anything like you. 😞I mean, it's almost hard to believe you're still a virgin. Everyone knows I am.

Artemis: 😦

(Later)

Artemis: (Researching how to cause sex crimes)
