Perun, the Slavic god of lightning and the sky. Created from an aspect of the supreme deity Rod, Perun’s counterpart: Veles, was believed to be his eternal rival. Sitting atop the world tree, Perun held complete power over the heavens and the physical world. However sometimes Veles in the form of a serpent would slither up from his abode in the underworld and up towards heaven, kidnapping Perun’s Cattle, wife, or daughters. In response Perun will chase the fleeing Veles across the earth, hurling thunderbolts at his rival, who would often hide behind other objects to protect himself from the power of Perun’s lightning. Eventually Perun defeats Veles and reclaims what was his, causing the storm to end.

Perun is an excellent example of both the thunderer and sky father archetypes, being descended from the Proto-indo-european gods Dyēus and Perkūnos. Perun was closely related to the Norse Thor as well as the Vedic Indra. Eventually Perun overtook Rod as the chief deity among Slavs, with his western equivalent Svarog doing the same. The hypothetical Slavic deity Belobog is most likely a roll that Perun filled.

Feast of the Sky Gods

What is the Feast of the Sky Gods?

The 15th - 17th of August is a multi path, multi cultural festival to celebrate all sky deities from all over the world. The days are celebrated with feasting, spending time outdoors, cloud watching, and visting or hiking to high places or places that allow you to be in the open air.  Good foods for any feast

- Light alcohols (bubbly alcohols, white) - Light fruits (white grapes, physalis fruit) - Light sweets/desserts (unusually, candy floss is a great idea) - Blue, white, pastel coloured foods.

  All deities will have their preferred offering, but for a general altar, good items would be  - feathers - white blue or pastel candles - white, blue, pastel altar cloths - weather stones - dandelions, sycamore seeds  - honey  Some gods to honour include  - Horus - Nzambi Mpungu - Badessy - Shango - Ataksak - Tzacol - Atahensic - Binbeal - Zhinu - Zojz - Dievs - Nuada - Zeus - Hera - Apollo - Indra - Asman - Uranus - Jupiter  - Juno  - Aurora - Eos  - Stribog - Perun - Izanagi - Ranginui - Ukko (Thank you to Mari who helped me with African and Native American representation in deities)

I don’t know who needs to hear it, but “deities from the sky” =/= “beings from other planets.” Many cultures regarded the sky itself as a place that beings could live, and often as not the stars and planets were considered to be Those Very Beings. They didn’t believe that a god “came from” the planet Mars or whatever, they thought of the planet Mars as that very god. Sometimes sky deities were personifications of wind, or rain, or thunder. Sometimes they were the whole freakin’ sky, as conceived by people who didn’t know that space was a thing. Religions as we know them tend to ultimately have animist roots (if they aren’t still animist in some sense), and this is important to keep in mind because it means that extraterrestrial aliens, as we conceive of them, were just never a thing for most people. They saw objects in the sky as conscious beings. They saw the sky as a conscious being. This might seem like a minor difference to modern people, but it’s really not; it’s absolutely foundational if you want to understand what people in the past were really talking about.

Aphrodite: The Greek Goddess of Love had a Fascinating Origin Story

In Greek mythology, it is believed that the goddess Aphrodite, known as the goddess of love, beauty, and fertility, had a unique and fascinating origin story. According to one popular myth, Aphrodite's birth was linked to the castration of the sky god Uranus by his son Cronus.

Legend has it that Cronus, encouraged by his mother Gaia, used a sickle to castrate Uranus and severed his genitals. As Uranus's blood fell into the sea, it mixed with the foamy waves, creating a great froth. From within this sea foam, Aphrodite was said to have been born and emerged in her full-grown and radiant form.

The imagery of Aphrodite's birth from sea foam is a powerful symbol of her association with the sea and its elements. It represents her connection to beauty, femininity, and the allure that captivates others. The myth captures the essence of her divine nature as a captivating and irresistible goddess of love and desire.

This mythological tale of Aphrodite's birth from sea foam has inspired countless works of art and literature throughout history, cementing her status as one of the most iconic and widely recognized Greek goddesses.

Something I love about confronting Cazador is how he obviously never processes that Astarion has friends until it's too late.

Petras and Dalyria must have mentioned that Astarion wasn't alone when they met him, but when you read Cazador's journal? He's 100% fixated on Astarion. How Astarion stood in the sun, how Astarion was willing and able to disobey him. And when Astarion shows up, Cazador barely acknowledges the party at all - and sure, that's partly because this is Astarion's moment in the narrative, but Cazador doesn't so much as ask why these random strangers are there! They're not part of his plans, so they don't exist.

And then they immediately save his errant spawn from the ritual and start beating his ass.

Just. What must have been going through Cazador's head when that fight starting turning against him? 'Is that... the Blade of Frontiers? Why is a monster hunter - and is that a cleric? - helping a vampire spawn? An undead? Ah, but they must be treating it as a necessary evil to have a chance to slay me, of course - hold on, why is the cleric healing Astarion? Why does that wizard keep Counterspelling everything I'm casting at Astarion, why waste the spells when I'm not even targeting him? Did... did that druid just cast Daylight on Astarion's weapons? And that brute of a tiefling - that's not just disgust in her eye when she looks at me, it's fury - and she keeps putting herself in front of Astarion, why in the hells would she - she's running right at me- '

I hope that one of the last things Cazador ever knew was the choking realisation that Astarion didn't just come back strong, or free. Astarion came back loved.

Dyēus, a hypothetical chief god of the Proto-indo-european pantheon, and the hypothetical origin for the sky father trope. Him along with his wife Dhēghom created the cosmos from the primeval void.

Dyēus’ effect has been far reaching, from old Vedic Hinduism to Norse myth. Some attest that Dyēus was an adaptation of Baal Hadad from Canaanite tradition.
