Aphrodite Offering Candles

As he mourned Ariadne, her form now stone forever, Dionysus looked hatefully at Aphrodite "Why did you make love this painful? Are you the Goddess of Love or the Goddess of Destruction?"

Aphrodite's eyes held sorrow as she said, "Both, child. Both."

Offering candles to Aphrodite, the Greek goddess of love, born from foam, and the Black Queen. 

She was originally known to be both a goddess of love and war, perhaps native to Cyprus, gateway between Mediterranean Asia, Europe, and Africa. 

While she is primarily known as the Greek goddess of love, beauty, and fertility, she is also associated with aspects of destruction and conflict, such that she embodies both the creative and destructive powers of love and desire: it can lead to joy and harmony, but it can also cause jealousy, obsession, and strife. 

Burn these tapers to evoke her energy and to assist you with spells regarding glamour, self-love, lust, and other related crafts.
