BECAUSE of the Corona Virus Plague, we have not come together as a group at the Hollywood Temple of Antinous to celebrate any of the Antinous ceremonies for months.
Thus, we missed most of the Red Ceremonies of fertility ... it seems darkly appropriate that the global pandemic which has turned the world upside down, should occur during the Red period of the Antinous liturgical calendar ... a time period marked with representations of blood and sacrifice.
This week is the Birthday of Rome, when the two boys were suckled by the she-wolf ... it is the commemoration of the hunt of the She-Bear, when Hadrian offered the head of a bear to Eros to grant him true love.
The rituals of The Great Mother of the Gods have gone unobserved ... Attis ... the boar hunt ... the return of Adonis from the underworld ... and the Aztec triumph of Xipe Totec also known as the Red Tezcatlipoca.
The gods are with us always, even in darkness.
(A brief violent earthquake just occurred as I wrote this!!!)
Ave Antinous
