The Story of Medusa: Greek Mythology Explained #mythology #history #medusa

A story of power protecting itself instead of women. 🐍 In mythology, Medusa was once a mortal woman, a priestess of Athena. She was “r-worded” by Poseidon in Athena’s temple, and instead of being protected, she was punished. She was transformed into the “monster” we know, with snakes for hair and a gaze that turned men to stone. Medusa is this month’s Coven Goddess. If her story resonates, sign ups are open until the 19th! 🫶🏻
