Semele was an earth goddess, Zeus represents the sky and their union creates Dionysus, a god linked to vegetation, Greek mythology is very symbolic

[louiscataperman]

I love the fact that Greek mythology has a god for every single thing

[goldenraven]

And no one asked Zeus "Hey man, why's your thigh so big?" 😭

[Abdulkalam-xvmj]

Zeus cheated his wife, his wife got angry and showed her hatred on poor innocent woman😕😕😢

[reddfeather]

The story of Dionysus starts out as many stories do. With Zeus cheating on his wife.

[PerfectlyImperfect]

Dionysus and Ariadne are my favorite couple💜 Their so underrated!

[aubreyyoung]

"Once again having one of his extramarital affair" cracked me. He said it with a straight voice. Gosh

[masterlight]

Hera's wrath was understandable I would be the Same if my spouse cheated on me, but she went to far for hurting all those poor girls and even the children.

[MTCoblivsicas]

Zeus causing the storylines of most ancient Greek legends.

The 2nd time Zeus became a pregnant man. Dionysus was the god of wine and ecstasy, but he was also of madness, festivals/parties, and theaters. His Roman name is Baachus. We all know that Apollo was bi but Dionysus is also categorized as lgbt. What is the reasons for that?

[marcello]

What a peculiar "pregnancy". Love the drawings!

[Jays]

Are we not going to talk about zagreus and the Orphic view of Greek Mythology? That makes this story even crazier.

[BeniTsuki]

Maaaan I’m started to think Zeus created Cheating on thy wife or just cheating in General😩

[charliemcternan]

[khlshk]

Semele is the daughter of Harmonia, Harmonia is the daughter of Ares, while Ares is the son of Zeus 🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️

[joet]

"The most primitive & simple of religious beliefs among both northern & southern races connected the object with the divinity, & when the Ancients declared the Oak sacred to Zeus, they identified the tree with the god—in other words, the tree itself was the god,   & in very primitive times was worshipped as such. This hypothesis is still further elaborated by the fact that the Oak is the tree most often struck by lightning, & Zeus, being the God of Thunder,   or the Thunder itself, dwelt in, or rather had his being in, an Oak tree. Prof. Harris puts it thus:  "The Thunder-god goes back to the Thunder-man, or into the Thunder-bird or Thunder-tree; Zeus takes the stately form in vegetable life of the Oak-tree, or if he must be flesh & blood, he comes back as a Red-headed Woodpecker. " The parasites of the Oak such as Mistletoe & Ivy, would evidently partake of the attributes of the tree & would thus be the thunder also. In the case of the Ivy a new & subordinate Thunder God would become evolved under the name of Dionysos, & Prof. Harris says:  "Dionysos is the ivy; in the first instance he is ivy, nothing more or less" ; & again;  "The tree is the thunder & makes all its parasites & its denizens thunder also.""

((This is related to fraternity & sorority initiations in colleges & universities. Specifically, but not exclusively, IVY League schools, which modern day makeshift Cults of Dionysus/Bacchus. All of which relates to the Super structure (or psychological platform) that functionally makes up Plato's Republic. Youth subjected to such initiation rites "adopt" (more accurately, are programmed to accept) certain sets of morals that directly impede the otherwise normal development of an individual identity (aka Jungian Individuation), directly related to subservience to authority [figures]))

Zeus sure does cheat on his wife but he definitely cares about his kids
