Ουρανος
Ouranos was the primordial god of the sky. The Greeks imagined the sky as a solid dome of brass, decorated with stars, whose edges descended to rest upon the outermost limits of the flat earth. Ouranos was the literal sky, just as his consort Gaia was the earth.
Ouranos and Gaia had twelve sons and six daughters. He locked the eldest of these - the giant Kyklopes and Hekatonkheires - away inside the belly of Earth. Gaia suffered immense pain and persuaded her Titan sons to rebel. Four of these positioned themselves at the corners of the world, ready to grasp their father as he descended to lie with Earth, while the fifth, Kronos, took his place in the centre and there castrated Ouranos with an adamantine sickle. The sky-god’s blood fell upon the earth, producing the avenging Erinyes and the Gigantes.

Ταρταρος
Tartaros was the primordial god of the stormy pit of Tartaros that lies beneath the foundations of the earth. He was the body of the pit itself rather than an anthropomorphic deity.
The universe was envisaged as great sphere with the solid dome of the sky forming the upper half and the inverse dome of the pit of Tartaros the lower. Tartaros was secured with a surrounding wall of bronze set with a pair of gates guarded by the hundred-handed Hekatonkheires and was the gloomy, storm-wracked prison of the Titanes

A part of me died that day when I told myself, “There are greater things in life than the love of a single man.”
You weren’t worthy of me (pt. 1)
Be my skin,
be my bones.
Be the only thing I ever did know.
Part of a work in progress
The kind of girl who drives 30 miles over the limit when she’s alone, and 10 under when you’re there.
You’re the sweetest thing in this world
Eye of the Storm
I’m a hurricane,
a natural disaster in the making.
I swoop in like a falcon,
and rip the flesh from bones.
I turn the world upside down,
and inside out.
I make the earth quake,
and shake,
and break sometimes.
Sometimes I wonder,
should I become more timid?
Should I be more of a pleasant day,
25 °C with some minor fluctuations.
Perhaps I’m just a little too much,
too 40 °C to 15 °C change.
Maybe my winds are too fast, harsh.
Too much at a time.
No one sees the beauty of a storm,
unless they’re in the eye of it.
- Venus de Roux
I look into my morning coffee and think, the only thing darker was the look in your eyes, the reflection of your soul, when you looked at me.

Aristotle believed that one thing was intrinsic to another. And you can’t explain one while disregarding the other. Maybe that’s why you’re the air I need to live. Without you I can’t exist.
- the reason to my rhyme
‘That the universe is stranger than you can suppose’
“Every culture that’s ever existed has operated under the illusion that it understood 95% of reality and that the other 5% would be delivered in the next 18 months, and from Egypt forward they’ve been running around believing they had a perfect grip on things and yet we look back at every society that preceded us with great smugness at how naive they all were. Well, it never occurs to us, then, that maybe we’re whistling in the dark too! That the universe is stranger than you CAN suppose, and that that openness that that perception imparts is a great joy, a great blessing, because then you can live your life not in service to some fascistic metaphor but in service to the living mystery: the fact that you’re not going to understand it; it is not going to yield to logic; or magic; or any other technique that’s been developed…” - quote by Terence McKenna.

Si salias a las calles y veias a todo mundo viendo el cielo, tu oficina entera está pegada a la ventana, o tus compañeros de clase fue y viendo como locos el cielo y tu timeline de twitter repleta de fotos del sol dentro de un aro, esto fue lo que paso
No tiene nada de ver con la luna u otros astros, no es una señal ni el principio del fin del mundo.
El halo que rodea al sol se produjo por las nubes que están cristalizadas por el frío, cuando los rayos del sol atraviesan esas nubes aparece el halo.
Regularmente este fenómeno meteorológico se observa en lugares muy fríos como Alaska.
La proyección de los rayos a través de las nubes crea un efecto iridiscente, por lo que se reflejan colores verdes, azules o rojos similar un arcoíris.
