Neptune (mythology) Puns

Yeah Neptune rides horse cock confirmed

I was told that the planets Neptune and Uranus as well as the sign of Aquarius deal with queerness...which kind of makes sense after I did some research on it. Uranus deals with new ideas, rebellion and breaking the status quo. Queer people show us that no you don't have to be cishet like society tells you that you have to be. As long as it's consensual you can love and fuck whoever you want. Also Neptune deals with glamour, poetry, music, theater, fashion, dance and other fine arts which a lot of queer people, especially gay men, are known to love. The sign of Aquarius deals with humanitarianism, progress, philanthropy and overall making the world a kinder and better place for everyone. Aquarius is ruled by Uranus. Put that all together and it makes sense why so many Zoomers are LGBTQ or LGBTQ allies. (I am both a Zoomer and gay myself)

Also another thing I wanna add is that I did some more research and found out that in Greek mythology, Aquarius was connected to the mythological youth Ganymede, who was the son of Tros, the Trojan king. Ganymede’s claim to fame came when Zeus transported him to Mount Olympus, to be the cupbearer of the gods. In this myth Zeus and Ganymede are lovers. Interesting how even the mythology of Aquarius connects to queerness.

Thoughts?

EDIT: Some of you people just hear whatever you want to hear don't you? I am going to make myself abundantly clear. I never said that the LGBTQ community didn't exist before Gen Z. I said that the energies of the planets Neptune and Uranus as well as the sign of Aquarius may contribute to the growing amount of queer zoomers as well as queer acceptance within Gen Z. I'm not the only person who thinks that thinks this way. Google "Queer people and Uranus" and then get back to me. This is the last time I'm going to clarify this.

All I've seen today is different versions of this "Saturn devouring his son" piece. Don't get me wrong most of these are great, but have no idea what is going on, can someone please explain

Edit: I wrote Neptune by mistake, I know it's Saturn

Welcome once again to the Riordan Retrospective. For those of you just joining the fun, I'm taking a look back at the works of Rick Riordan, collectively known as the Riordanverse. That means the Percy Jackson series, its sequels and its spin-offs. This time we’re beginning out look back at The Heroes of Olympus. Let’s start with a look back at The Lost Hero.

Jason Grace is on a class trip to the Grand Canyon, but he has no idea how he got there.  Piper McLean claims to be his girlfriend, and Leo Valdez claims to be his best friend, but Jason doesn't recognize either of them.  In fact, he can't remember much of anything.  After surviving any attack by angry wind spirits, the three learn that they are demigods and a whisked away to Camp Half-Blood, summer camp and refuge for children of the Greek gods.  Percy Jackson, the legendary son of Poseidon and hero of the pervious series, has gone missing and nobody knows where he is.  Even worse, the goddess Hera has been captured, and she wants Jason, Piper and Leo to find and free her.  They'll seek answer, but also find new questions.  Perhaps the biggest question of all is, just who is Jason Grace?

There's going to be plenty of spoilers, as per usual, but even more so in this case.  The Heroes of Olympus is the sequel series to Percy Jackson and the Olympians, so this is to be expected.  Turn back now if you don't like spoilers.

Everyone who wants out gone?  Good, let's begin the discussion.

When Rick Riordan announced that he was writing a sequel series to Percy Jackson and the Olympians everyone, myself included, was very excited.  There was a lot of speculation about just what the series would be like.  For my part, I assumed it was going to be Percy Jackson: The Next Generation.  I though, based on comments from Riordan, that the characters from the original series would be a bit older, and would be serving as mentors to a new generation of demigod heroes.  Obliviously, it did not workout like that.

I'll get more into my overall thoughts on Heroes of Olympus when we get to The Blood of Olympus.  For now, I will say that it doesn't quite have the charm of the original series, and isn't without flaws, but there are still plenty things to love.

As far as The Lost Hero goes, I'd say it is probably the weakest book in the series.  I should point out here that this is different than being the worst book, but we'll discuss more

I’m studying it so I was wondering? I know Jupiter Pluto and Neptune were brothers. And I know Jupiter overthrew Saturn to rule and become the king of Gods. And I know Saturn castrated Uranus.

But I was wondering were Jupiter and Uranus enemies? See Jupiter is usually associated with Sagittarius and Pisces. Now I know Jupiter tied Prometheus or Uranus to a rock since it went against the law to provide humankind with fire.

But I also know Chiron (Sagittarius) sacrificed his painful immortality in exchange for the freedom of Uranus. So I was wondering.. are Jupiter and Uranus friends or enemies?

Another imagery is God and Lucifer. Lucifer was one of God’s favorites till he disobeyed.

Etc etc

I have noticed that after Cleopatra appearing, other childs started to appear like Bast or Horus which looked like Egyptians. But when I started to google names of other childs - it was a surprise because even not egyptian looking waifus are also related to the same mythology. Where is Korea and where is Egypt, right? Maybe for some of you this info will be interesting.

Wepwawet (also rendered Ophois) was originally a war deity, whose cult centre was Asyut in Upper Egypt. His name means opener of the ways and he is often depicted as a wolf standing at the prow of a solar-boat. Some interpret that Wepwawet was seen as a scout, going out to clear routes for the army to proceed forward. One inscription from the Sinai states that Wepwawet "opens the way" to king Sekhemkhet's victory

Sekhmet is a warrior goddess as well as goddess of healing. She is depicted as a lioness. She was seen as the protector of the pharaohs and led them in warfare. Upon death, Sekhmet continued to protect them, bearing them to the afterlife. Sekhmet is a solar deity, sometimes called the daughter of Ra and often associated with the goddesses Hathor and Bastet.

Bastet or Bast was a goddess of ancient Egyptian religion. In ancient Greek religion, she was known as Ailuros (Koinē Greek: αἴλουρος "cat"). Bastet was worshiped in Bubastis in Lower Egypt, originally as a lioness goddess, a role shared by other deities such as Sekhmet. Eventually Bastet and Sekhmet were characterized as two aspects of the same goddess, with Sekhmet representing the powerful warrior and protector aspect and Bastet, who increasingly was depicted as a cat, representing a gentler aspect.

Pakhet, Egyptian meaning she who scratches is a lioness goddess of war. It became said that rather than a simple domestic protector against vermin and venomous creatures or a fierce warrior, she was a huntress, perhaps as a caracal ...

Horus is one of the most significant ancient Egyptian deities who served many functions, most notably god of kingship and the sky. He was most often depicted as a falcon, most likely a lanner falcon or peregrine falcon, or as a man with a falcon head ...

Astoreth (Northwest Semitic) a form of [Ishtar](https://en.wikipedia.or

I am studying Neptune in both scientific and mythologic, and could use some help finding out some information on the planet, it's mythology, etc. I would like to learn about the mythical side of its retrogrades, if it uses crystals by any chance, the signs it affects, and the general mythology that follows Neptune. Thank you.

I really think it's fascinating, despite Riot acknowledging that both Shyvana and Aurelion Sol need work, they've pushed the former significantly back (maybe she'll hit in 2023) and generally just don't seem to know what to do with the latter. There's insane potential and a possible player base for both "half-dragon with full dragon form?!" "galaxy dragon?!" And yet they can't crack it, and I don't think it's from lack of trying.

What's missing here? Why can't they click the power fantasy of playing a dragon with these two champs?

So I decided to randomize a life on BitLife and name all the children mythological names using a random generator haha. Here they are:

Alcides (Son)

Phobos (Son)

Helene (Daughter)

Megaira (Daughter)

Damocles (Son)

Lilith (Daughter)

Aella (Daughter)

Pandora (Daughter)

Dalia (Daughter)

Aeolus (Son)

Callisto (Daughter)

Neptune (Son)

Naenia (Daughter)

Amon (Son)

Deimos (Son)

Hephaestus (Son)

Europa (Daughter)

Ulysses (Son)

Athena (Daughter)

Hades (Son)

Andromeda (Daughter)

Amalthea (Daughter)

Let's start at the beginning: original sin. The problem God had with Adam and Eve eating the fruit wasn't that they did something morally wrong. I mean, how could they have done something morally wrong before they even had knowledge of good and evil? The problem God had was that they had disobeyed. God said don't eat the fruit, and they ate it. Disobedience and disloyalty.

Another example is Job. When God tested Job, it wasn't his morality being tested. It was a test of his loyalty. It wasn't a question of whether Job was a good man or not, it was a question of whether Job would remain faithful no matter what happened.

God also tested Abraham. He ordered him to kill his son, and Abraham was rewarded for showing that he was willing to obey. You can't get a much clearer indication that what's really important isn't morality but rather loyalty and obedience.

And it's all laid out in the Ten Commandments. Sure, there's some good stuff in there like not killing people, but most of Commandments are about loyalty (idols, coveting, and so on).

And the focus doesn't change with Jesus and the New Testament. As the story goes, the ritual human sacrifice of Jesus on the cross meant that all of humanity's sins are forgiven. Only that's not true, is it? There's still one sin that cannot be forgiven: disloyalty. You have a free pass to rape, murder, and steal: just say you're sorry, and it's all good. But if you "turn your back" on God, then you'll burn for eternity.

It's not a coincidence that "faithful" and "loyal" are synonyms.

So, why do you suppose it is that a church would want to teach its followers that the most important traits a person can have are loyalty and obedience?

If you agree, please give your thumbs up to spread the word to the entire community.

Let's just get it out of the way right from the beginning - Yes, I am a fan of older AC games and i think AC doesn't need to be RPG. However, I am also a huge RPG fan, and i probably like those type of games more than traditional Assassin's Creed. So I am not making this kind of post because i hate RPGs - I just think that it is perfectly okay that there are franchises that focus on it's own thing without the need to "evolve" into something they shouldn't be.

I am saying all of this because i think the need to stick to AC brand is what's keeping these recent games down for me. The traditional AC elements are being dumbed down in favor of RPG elements, and RPG elements imo are getting poor explanations that take me right out of the immersion because of the need to connect them with The Animus and The Isu and modern day.

The Animus suddenly became a machine that let's you have choices, even though it's literally supposed to be a device that relives history. The Isu and their technology look less like technology and more like fantasy. And because of previous two, modern day is just dogshit.

Not to mention how Assassins, their creed, social stealth, more complex parkour, etc. are pretty much non existent. Assassin's Creed to me is about war between Assassins and Templars, told in a grounded story that shows fake history in a plausible way. And if they didn't want to make that, which is apparent, they should have just let this series rest and revive it only if they got some good ideas about stealthy action-adventure games.

If Ubisoft started new IP that didn't need to have modern day, and where mythological stuff is actual supernatural mythic stuff, i think I would have enjoyed Odyssey and Valhalla more. And I know Fenyx exists, but i'm talking more about a game that's less cartoony and where historical lands exist along with gods and mytholocial creatures and supernatural abilities.

The reason i hear they didn't do above mentioned is so that they can have a bigger sales because AC already has a lot of fans. But Ubisoft is a pretty big company with a large marketing machine - they could have promoted Odyssey and Valhalla exactly like they did now - with absolutely minimal Assassin's Creed references - and I think the games would sell really well. Instead, a number of older fans that Ubisoft counted in that bigger sales number now feel that AC completely lost it's identity, myself included. And new fans, which are now majority let's be honest, like this new

As everyone is probably aware, we are in the middle of Mars's transit through Cancer, the sign of his fall. I've been thinking about what that means energetically and archetypically, and felt drawn to looking into this seemingly detrimental transit on an esoteric level.

I was surprised to learn through my research that there is a strong connection between Mars and the watery sign of Cancer in the ancient Babylonian mythology of Nergal, the god that corresponds to the planet Mars, and also ruler of the underworld. In ancient Babylonian myth, and in several other cultures including ancient Greek and Roman, the gate to the underworld is in the sign of Cancer.

I wrote a more in depth analysis that you can read here, but I'd love to start a discussion and see if anyone else has been experiencing these themes during this transit.

Edit: substack, the newsletter platform I use is experiencing some issues, so please check back later if that link isn't working for you. #justMarsinCancerThings

So I know 20 is pretty late to get into percy jackson as it's aimed at kids, but I've read the first 2 books and read some stuff online. Can someone explain to me what the other religions gods are. Like are Poseidon and Neptune the same person? are thor and loki other names for greek gods? or are the roman gods just the greeks with different names? I know they move with civilization but I'm confused to be honest. Appreciate any and all explanations.

With his medical skills, he's known as the first centaur for disease control!

As in Percy Jackson where each character is a demigod
