Mythology → Hades + Persephone

Live without your sunlight

Love without your heartbeat

I can’t live within you.

PLUTO, magnanimous, whose realms profound
Are fix’d beneath the firm and solid ground,
In the Tartarian plains remote from fight,
And wrapt forever in the depths of night

WAY DOWN UNDER THE GROUND (a hades and persephone playlist)

can you even imagine yourself in paradise? even the daughter of gods must know loneliness, must sometimes want nothing more than to be trapped in hell of forevers. thank me, you queen. i’ve given you forever.

way down hadestown, anaïs mitchell / beat the devil’s tattoo, black rebel motorcycle club / heavy in your arms, florence and the machine / benjamin, chelsea wolfe / if i had a heart, fever ray / bones, ms mr / rest in the bed, laura marling / extinguish me, soap&skin 

(listen)

bemusedlybespectacled:

if you ever think mythology is boring or serious business or whatever shit

just remember that cerberus, the hell-hound and guard dog of the underworld, comes from the root indo-european word ḱerberos, which evolved into the greek word kerberos, which got changed to cerberus when it went from greek to latin

ḱerberos means “spotted”

that’s right

hades, lord of the dead, literally fucking named his pet dog spot

Only-begotten, Pluto’s honor’d wife, 
O venerable Goddess, source of life:
‘Tis thine in earth’s profundities to dwell,
Fast by the wide and dismal gates of hell:
Jove’s holy offspring, of a beauteous mien,
Fatal, with lovely locks, infernal queen
