Hi Willow! Today is my favorite theme other than dark folklore. :) I'm happy to be here.

This is so bittersweet. I'd like to think my son, Adam, is a daisy spreader now. :) I know he shows up every morning as a red cardinal in my yard and often leaves me small white rocks on my porch. Thank you for sharing! I'll be looking for ALL the daisies now, Olivia.

I've never heard of this particular custom. How interesting. I love that a man is riding a horse covered in garlands! :)

Unfortunately, while hunting a wild boar, Adonis was impaled and despite Aphrodite's attempts to cure him with nectar, he died. Her tears and Adonis' blood created the anemone flower. Was the boar Ares in disguise? Or a plot from Persephone to get Adonis back? #FolkloreThursday 🎨 J.W. Waterhouse
