But this isn’t just about drama—we’re going beyond the surface.We explore how Persephone and Aphrodite were both honored in ancient Greek religion as Despoina, the "Mistress of the House," a powerful title that speaks to their divine authority and queenship.We’ll unpack how their worship overlapped, what their titles meant in ancient cult practices, and how modern interpretations often fall into the trap of pitting two powerful women against each other—a dynamic that reflects more about us than the ancient world.Intro: 0:00Aphrodite Month in Our Mystery Cult!: 1:53Aphrodite Restock + Statue Updates in the Temple: 5:20Do Aphrodite and Persephone Hate Each Other?: 7:57Why the Dark Divine Feminine Movement Appropriates our Religion: 23:19Despoina the Epithet of Queen: 27:40Check out our Patreon, Styx and Bones Temple's Store, Blogs and more! ⁠⁠https://beacons.ai/styxandbonessFOLLOW STYX AND BONES ON SOCIAL MEDIA⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/styxandbonespodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/styxandbonestemple⁠⁠FOLLOW HIGH PRIESTESS CHELSEA⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/highpriestesschelsea⁠⁠FOLLOW DR.
