Tending the Sacred Flames |
|
| Name: | Hestia | |
| Location: | Greece | |
| Bio: | "Hestia, you who tend the holy house of the lord Apollon, the Far-shooter at goodly Pytho, with soft oil dripping ever from your locks, come now into this house, come, having one mind with Zeus the all-wise - draw near, and withal bestow grace upon my song." -Homeric Hymn XXIV to Hestia "To Hestia, Fumigation from Aromatics. Daughter of Kronos, venerable dame, who dwellest amidst great fire’s eternal flame; in sacred rites these ministers are thine, mystics much blessed, holy and divine. In thee the Gods have fixed their dwelling place, strong, stable basis of the mortal race. Eternal, much formed, ever florid queen, laughing and blessed, and of lovely mien; accept these rites, accord each just desire, and gentle health and needful good inspire." –Orphic Hymn 84 to Hestia It isn't easy being the oldest and youngest, the eternal virgin, the one who stepped aside for the good of all...but I love my family, troublesome as they are. ((No, I don't think I'm really Hestia. This is for RP. Sorry! Images from Getty Images)) | |
