[quote=MovieGal]It's a myth of the Greeks to explain the seasons...so with Persephone returning, her mother, Demeter, stops grieving and allows plants to grow again.

Persephone was kidnapped by Hades. She ate a pomegranate and has to live 1/4 of the year with him and 1/4 with her mother.  Spring is her return and Fall is her descent. 

Right now it's time for Nyx and Erebus.[/quote]

[quote=FilmBuff][quote=MovieGal][quote=FilmBuff][quote=MovieGal]Tomorrow is Yule aka The Winter Solstice. 

[I] Days grow dark, cold and windy, as the Sun fades away from us. We await for the warmth to return that is  Spring. Warmth of the sun as it kisses our face and longer days will bless us once again. Flowers bloom, bees will buzz, allowing us to rejoice again that Spring has come[/i][/quote]

I really love the long nights of winter[/quote]


I don't mind winter but I'm waiting for Persephone to return so Demeter will be happy again.[/quote]

That's spring, right?[/quote]

[quote=MovieGal][quote=I_Wear_Pants]All of this talk of migraines gave me a migraine. Then in inimitable fashion, I got rid of it just by sitting here staring at my computer and watching a movie with my kiddo.[/quote]


Do your kiddos like The Dark Crystal or Labyrinth?[/quote]

[quote=MovieGal]Ok that was written quickly and hard on my phone.

Yes, that one is mine.[/quote]
