Hellenic Holiday: Plynteria

The holiday of Plynteria is upon us, which is the annual washing of the statue of the goddess Athena during ancient times. In modern times I also wash my statue of Athena and also give her offerings and pour out wine to her. I don't spend any money or do any business. I just enjoy my time with her and do a small ritual in dedication to her. During ancient times the temple of Athena was closed and no business was done.

I do hope that you will have a good one.
