I think the thing a lot of people miss about Aphrodite is that, while she’s the goddess of love, she’s more so the goddess of passion

Think about myths involving Aphrodite. They’re not just stories of how attractive she is (but that’s true too). She’s smart and emotional and knows how to turn a situation to suit her needs.

Aphrodite is with you when you love someone, but also when you’re so angry you can barely speak. When you’re so excited about a subject that you’re going to burst if you don’t tell someone. When you’re so happy about a new outfit that nothing can phase you.

She’s the intensity of emotion on all spectrums. And it’s wonderful.
