Aphrodite Altar

Aphrodite Altar



Hail Aphrodite
Maiden born of the Sea
She Who Shines Brightly
Ever Luminous Morning Star
Radiant Goddess of Feminine Beauty
Mistress of the Maiden's Sensual Allure

Eternal Venus of Beauty & Grace
Dancer in the Light, of every Woman's Eye
The Maiden Who lives within Mother & Crone
Feminine Sensuality Eternally Re-born in Woman



 

Aphrodite was, in older times Astarte. She is also an aspect of the Maiden Goddess Artemis Diana.

There are quiet a few incarnations of this much beloved Goddess of Love and Physical Beauty.

Her power transcends culture and time. Her presence is as real today as it was in ancient times.

She is known as "Aphrodite Marina", "Maiden of the Sea", "Venus of Desire", "Aphrodite Urania",

"Astarte", "Ishtar", "Diana", and "Goddess of Love".


Seeking Aphrodite's Blessing

Oh Goddess of Love
Lend me Your Bright Powers
That my essence may Sparkle
Draw to me my own True Beloved
Spark our beings with the Magic of Love
Let no impediment hinder our Path to Bliss

Guide our Pairing with Wisdom
Fill our Hearts with Tender Devotion
Let us dance the Love & Passion of Equals
Radiant, joyous beings sipping from Eternity's Cup


       


                                          Courting Aphrodite

Love brought by Aphrodite is powerful, passionate and affirming.

It is not the weak and insecure love that demands you abandon

any part of yourself.  It is a love that accepts you in your entirety. 

The Goddess in Her aspect of Aphrodite is an empowering Goddess.



True Love is found when you are truly yourself, in all your power and humaness.

Aphrodite is attracted to those who dare to be themselves and live life to the fullest.

She delights in sharing Her sensuous blessings with all who are open to adventure,

an open heart for others, self-love and sensual pleasures. She is the heart's Venus.



Aphrodite shuns those who are prone to self-pity, recklessness or envy.

Her gifts are an expression of joys of the physical world. She is Life and its many gifts.

Her abundance is available to all who seek Her company with an open and generous heart.
