Most people have a very commonly percieved ideology about Aphrodite. The similarly assumed history and how it was a big part of a sociocultural tool, to use the examples or stigmas of the mindset as a method for capitalizing female objectification.
But she, she was not only a representation of sex and she wasn't demon of sexual pleasures. She was simply a goddess of Love, Purity and Fertility.
And during the different ages of her lifetimes, she must have changed her name several times because her identity was tarnished by bad fate and mostly, because there was an elongated and ancient conflict in proclaiming the identity of Aphrodite. But, Aphrodite was just a name.
Not many knew her true story.
Quite crazy, how Mens first recognition in their receptive abilities would spark misogynistic corners of their minds, the min they heard the name Aphrodite because it would say to them submission, desires, sexual intimacy, lust and other forms of pleasures. Which is the paradox because that's who she was not; weak, unable and a food for the evil. She had power too, and it was pure light. Ones that even Gods were afraid of sometimes.
Not many people learnt of her sufferings during the ancient days but it is proclaimed that they were all because of both men and women. During an Age when the men rose to dominance and power in evolution in an Aegis, most wanted to be with her and desired her love but in return it caused misogynistic envy which created inert politics within, like a synchronicity of envy taking place, which she would later be dragged into for no reason. (We know how the complications esacalate)
This spoke of their personality in return and exposed their true colors, by how it slowly degraded into further forms of prejudices against one another, that never stopped.
Most of all, she just wanted to find that one lover and was never really interested with all of them at once. And it was in the depth. It was always a problem they created.
And back then, there were females that were extremely jealous and it wasn't even that she was some queen of any throne but the wars they waged against her was always extreme and absurd, that they were born as men in their next lives. Whereas she was always a cherub living in a world of her own.
There was a time however, when everything was at peace in the celestial kingdoms.
Then,
Her cup was poisoned and siphoned with that of another beautiful goddesse's by a man that was envious of the both of them.
Maybe they were sisters.
Something happened, since then. She and her sister were gone from their realm, from the Aegis from everything they and the people in that realm experienced together in their world.
Some say, they left because trouble followed them everywhere they went and even among the Gods, but some say she never left.
And according to the designs of civilizations, it looked like their lives were pretty smooth even without her presence.
Some say she chose to be a human and that had to be the reason for her sacrifice in order to complete a promissory Oath, with the underworld. That in return she would be granted with several list of things that would honor her for her true virtues and Intelligence and that she was not a shallow idol tool. One of them was fulfilling the cycle of her heart; the love she had and the other one that she seeked..
She never found it in that world, so she thought maybe they should first find their soul mates, without her around.
She felt completely famished, pushed around and sick of everyone, including her father, there, and Athena never let her read books because she always considered herself most intelligent. And she wasn't going to let Aphrodite have the power of Beauty, Intelligence and even Purity.
Most often they would find her in different lives too but they would end up fooling her again for the reasons of her loving nature, which often came off as traits of betrayal and disloyalty to most, but mostly it was because of the forgiveness that always resided in her, in a place where Julias Ceasar reigned.
Her soul was slowly growing precautious according to their Intelligence. She knew what was coming her way because theyd never let her have her own. It was beauty and how far they could have gone, to be known as Aphrodite.
'Maybe they should just all shut up and accept a higher embrace. Ones they probably don't even deserve.'
This was quite interestingly, concerning not just her but an entire arc of light and innocent people and souls inside it, that was slowly dying.
She was not prepared for this because, she never thought that her absence would make the rest of them so devoid of light. She would laugh because now turning the lights on would display a character of mockery against light. 'Wow. Really. That's how dumb she appeared all this time?'
'Nobody cares about you but themselves, except Aphrodite, yet she lingers in the corners of a void of neglection even though she's the only one you always need and end up going to.As she's within you. And remember, she's a spirit of love, not defined by perception and not what you can and cannot understand. I must find the messages and warning signs she left for me.'
