Mythology & Fiction Explained 🎒💭🦊⚖️🦋
I have a question. Are there any stories about gods and goddesses from one mythology interacting with one from another mythology? Say like Anubis speaking to Zeus? I bring this up out of sheer curiosity? In a religious story about the end times there was the story of Jesus defeating the Greek gods and throwing them into Hades. Even the lord of the underworld fell to the fate of a second death. Of course in those stories the nine gods and goddesses are often seen in many mythologies and religions alike as the nine generals of the Devil and Satan himself the tenth head of a red dragon. Just passing thoughts to look into.
Mythology & Fiction Explained I love Themis, and Athena but Hecate is my absolute favorite
Mythology & Fiction Explained yeah my apologies for miscounting I sworn I seen 6 digits
Have you ever researched Cloacina?
Lady Justice, in all of her splendor. "Justice may be blind, but it can see in the dark..."
imagine if she or nemesis is your mom...................
i bet she or nemesis will beat the shit outta me if catch me skipping classes or school.
razor edge I Am The LAW son... Oh frakk!
silent moment for fall of brave soul.
razor edge beats the holy living fuck out of me
*belt of divine holy justice cracks in the background*
Justice can be blind... but not stupid!!!
“a goddess of wisdom”
Themis: Aayyyyyyyy
Athena: Aayyyyyyyy!
Both: AAYYYYYYYY!
Other gods: Whats up with them?
is that a Jojo's reference? hahahaha
When they send u to the goddess of wisdom 😁

A sword that cuts fact from fiction...I want one...
Me too
I can see a great demand for that talent in this day & age
The blacksword of William H wright from umineko.
Very relevant in the year 2020
Basically her word is law in Greek mythology and she’s she’s above the gods power and authority along with her daughter.
Can we please get more Greek beings that kick the gods off their high horse more often?
Nyx, primordial being of the Night, and Tartarus the primordial lord of the prison of the same name. Their names simply coming up made the Olympians shit their pants.
Chandler Shepard don’t forget typhon
Let's not forget that walking armegedon, who is badass only cause he made the stupid olympians scared out of their wits.
Chandler Shepard also there’s the heccatonceres(I know I did not spell that right).
Pritan and of course kratos!
I love Themis! The first time I got introduced to her is in the very first comic book I bought when I was young. The Teen Titans, back in the 80's, where the Titan Thea is attacking Olympus for revenge. The line that Themis said in that book I still remember. She stated, "We are not gods because we created the universe. "We are gods because the people worships us as such!" 😁
Geff E Ternal ehhhhhh
I learned about her in history class but the teacher didnt know her name
I first heard of her in Edgeworth Investigations 2 as Courtney kept referring to her as the Goddess of Law, and I first learnt her name in Dual Destinies as there was a school called Themis Legal Academy, but I didn't realise it was a reference to Greek Mythology until much later. VL
Zeus was scared to have sons with Themis in fear they dethrone him
Nah. Absolutely no evidence for that. Themis is an enforcer of the cosmic order and nothing born of her could work to destabilise it. It would be antithetical to her very nature.
Zeus was also afraid to have sons with Themis for the same reason. Zeus feared the Justice due him for cheating, just as Ouranos felt the delivery of Justice through the Scythe of Chronos.
@@claytonbenignus4688 🙄 where do y'all get these weird ideas with no basis in any primary source from? And what cheating are you even talking about?
Do you not know Zeus ? He litteraly could be the god of adultery
@@claytonbenignus4688
What?!
Being a Libra, I appreciate her more after watching this.
Same
im a libra as well :)
Same
Hell yea😂 I can smell bullshit from a mile away
Sameeeeeee I just thought this
A deity I’d really want to hear about from you is Loki. Not the Avengers version obviously, but the actual trickster and mischievous god from Norse mythology. Do you think it’s possible for you to make a video about him?
Angel Del Prado Neil Gaiman wrote a fantastic book called Norse Mythology and has one of the most amazing depictions of Loki I’ve ever seen/read. His character really is tragic and likable despite his role in the Norse myths.
It's cool learning about more of the obscure gods and goddesses
Lady Justice has a name?! holy shit! ya really do learn something new everyday.
Yup, LIBERTUS.
Happy Easter. Or rather ISHTAR. As we worship the Post Winter resurrection of the EAST STAR (Venus). As it pulls up the Sun of harvest. Today all of which is camouflaged as Easter (East-Star).
@@latestred6510 ....what?
I can NOT get enough of these videos. When I am having a bad day, I turn on one of your videos and then I realize my day isn't as bad as some of the gods and goddesses LOL This might be my new favorite. Themis is a pretty name as well.
She reminds me of the Libra Star Sign.
The three-legged seat represents that for there to be an impartial judge you need a minimum of three moral actors. When you have only two actors is always a contest of will and power between the two. With the addition of the third actor, for disagreements between any two, a third actor has the greatest potential to be impartial.
Could you do the myths behind the zodiac signs. Please and thank you. I love this channel!!!!!
Thanks for the ad! I was actually looking for a statue of Themis!
I can't help but feel sorry for her. She must have been so lonely. Love your work. Keep at it. X
Let me just say that the animations on this channel are top notch. 😍 I wish big production companies would discover this channel's amazing talent whether its narration, the way they organize the stories, and the animations.
Themis is one of my favorite. Thank you for this video. Not many know of Themis.
She's my favourite goddess. I love Themis and what she stands for. I believe also that she represents modern day law, as all as explained by her character is seen clear within the justice system.
Astounding as always, I highly appreciate your focus on lesser known gods and goddesses, and this is one of the best. I really enjoyed this one and her relevance to classical architecture, symbolism, and political ideology today. I would really love to see a video on Hestia, I hope you'll consider it! Really grateful that I found your impressive channel!
Your commentary is getting even more in depth with your videos, clearly you are growing with each video you do. Thumbs up man!
Can you do one about Calypso?
Congrats on 100k!
I'm so happy I stumbled across this channel.
Mythology is infinitely facanating to me. I'm going to see if there is a video here about Icarus. I'm so excited!!!
Themis is better then Hera
You have to understand, that Hera's mistreatment of Zeus' lovers was only because she couldn't punish him; since he was more powerful than her. And that besides being the queen of the gods her primary function was as the goddess of marriage. And because of that she punished those that she could. I personally would have loved to see what she would do to Zeus if she could, but justice was never her main function. Blessed be.
@@patrickmcpherson97 I thought Titans were huge, gigantic giants.
@@dr.robotico8500 they can be small or be like titan jist like rhea
Themis is one of the my favorite goddesses/Titaness
Love your channel keep it up! 🙋
Good job Man.. Very impressed with how you explain things thoroughly with great references.. I hope you do a videos for nymphs, muses, graces or provide clear illustrations of the map of the underworld starting from the entrance where Cerberus guarded, famous sufferers of the underworld, including the field of Elysium.. That would be dope.. More power.. Keep it up ♥ ♥
Your voice is so pleasant I could listen to you all day
Every time I see one of your thumbnails I feel like going pagan
You should! You'd be in smart, fun company. ;)
it's worth it though❤️
Did she inspire the zodiac sign Libra(the scale)?
I like Themis because she is depiction of libra ans im a libra
Love the artwork and narration as always. 💙
congrats for 100k
Congrats on 100k man you're the best I always look forward to these videos
Oh it's here,I guessed this,most thought Nemesis,but I'm sure that's coming,Themis is my jam thou
I'd never heard of Themis before but she resonates the strongest to me. Love this video. Thank u sir
Great video just as always. I hope you will make one for Astraea as well!
First one here 😂
Finally
Awesome vid bro
Can't get enough 🤓😜
Really happy I found your channel. Been here since 15k
Love your video sir. Share them every day
Themis is in real life the famous TV judge Judy.
Please do Demeter she is my favorite Greek goddess
I’d really like you to do a video on Mars. Not Ares, but the Roman Mars. His switch from his Greek form to his Roman form is so fascinating in its differences.
Love ur 📹's they are always very informative....THANK YOU GOD BLESS U ND URS
Glad I watched this Themis is interesting!
These stories are far more interesting than christian mythology. This story has actual morality in it that you don't see in christian mythology.
This video is my absolute favorite.
Maybe you could do a video on the goddess Aletheia? I'd like to hear your take on her as well. She was known as a goddess of truth.
I like Themis. Truth and Justice always.
Hello, love your videos. Your voice and tempo are soothing to me thank you so much sir. Your videos have helped me in more and one way.
I love this video. I'd like for info on Lady Themis
Just discovered your channel and so binge watching tonite!
Love the vids really looking forward for the next one😋
New sub! I really enjoy these videos. Keep up the good work.
I really liked Themis! Thanks for the explanation!
Can you please do Mnemosyne next pleaseee
This is great. Thank you for uploading this such an interesting videos.
I’ve only herd about half of them your channel is amazing I am really get into mythology now keep up the awesome work
Great video
Themis= thalamus as in thalamus gland. And yes, the sensory messages would be the God zues' first "council" 🌺🦋🧠 thanks for all your cool videos 😊
I'm loving this Greek mythology series!
Zeus fumbled the bag hard
I really do Love these videos!
Enjoy your channel & congrats on 100k subs
Decades ago I came up with the idea of an “opera” dealing with fate and the consequences of defying it. Originally I had the character of a “teat mother” warning the three sisters of fate of imminent threat to the fabric of the universe. But today I learned that the mother probably needs to be Themis.
Could you possibly look into Ananke, Greek Godess of Unavoidable Fate?
Bram Corvus yeah it would be a very interesting video. Ananke was the force behind every movement of the universe and behind every divine and human action. According to ancient Greeks even the gods obey Ananke!
Interesting that a titan of reasoned justice, a woman, bonded with power to counsel Zeus. By the time Hera married him, his random interventions into the lives of humanity and her whims of human intreague, serves to reveal the deminished stature of Olympus. Athena, the feminine genius of wisdom appeared directly from the split skull of Zeus. Thank Themis for whatever engrams that remain coded in the previous mind of the Greek collective unconsciousness. To ascribe wisdom as emanating through the interactive influences of the feminine, as is fearless in its unwavering comportment to fairly weigh and assess reaity is a more truthful consideration than to equate the female with chaos itself. For the Greeks to invested in wisdom as an arbiter of power, even in the unknowable gods of the sky, sea or the underworld, is that culture's gracious gesture. But our humanity plays out here on this planet, in this very moment, and it is we, through our affinity with the blind Themis who still converse and ascribe meaning to the Greater Good.
I love your take on the three legged chair she sat on
I love this channel!
Congrats on 100k Subs.👍
I love these kind of videos!
Thank you. Very enlightening
Before u explained her in great detail I had drew a line from her to lady justice. Crazy how Greek mythology is still used to this day
0:59 she looks soooo pwetty! :3
So many its hard to keep up with them all...great video's!
Themis is a true unbiased marvel of a creation!
did Themis ever punished any GODS FOR THEIR WRONG I WOULD LIKE TO HEAR HER PUNISHING GODS FOR THEIR WRONG DOINGS
+swad ahmed
Unfortunately no. Themis does not actually feature that much in mythology.
swad ahmed Poseidon and Apollo had to build the walls of Troy
Nemesis, her counterpart, delivers the punishments to bring balance
She sided with Zeus during the Titan War. I assume this was due to Cronus doing wrong by eating his children.
Themis is now my favorite Titan
Hi there, very cool combo for your videos! :D very nice! :D ;) I know you made lots of videos, it might be a good idea to place the descirption section underneith some of your past videos? :)
Another great video,I'm thank you
To me the blind fold is a representation of how all of us here on earth can't see, I mean who are spiritually asleep
I like her Themis is amazing thanks.
really cool, video!!!
Thank you for mentioning her marriage to Zeus. I read about it awhile ago, and forgot the source. As a practicing witch/wiccan I mentioned it to someone I know and they thought I made it up, since many only know of his marriage to Hera.
It is understandable that most people only know about his marriage to Hera, considering that it is only of the few things that are always consistent in classical mythology. unlike his previous marriages (if we can even call them that) which are only mentioned in Hesiod's Theogony and nowhere else.
to themis, fair themis, we lift our hearts in song💙👑
What do you think about astrea and dike and Themis similarities and where do they fit ....
Can you do Nemesis herself...
i just found your channel, i was looking for inspiration for an art piece u am doing inspired by lady justice and i came upon this video,
and oh my goodness! this was an amazing find, i highly enjoyed learning about themis, she is definitely one of my favorite greek gods of mythology ^-^
thank you for thw wonderful video!
i also subscribed:)
She is based on the African Goddess Maat. Also she represents the heart chakra and the number four.
I know Chakra is from Anime naruto
She, who even the gods respect. Let justice be done even if Olympus falls.
There is a story about the Trojan War where Zeus and Themis planed it together to deal with the problem of overpopulation because it could lead to chaos, it was one of her ways of maintaining balance.
Yes I love themis
Because she's blind that explains why we must pray....
Can you do Antaeus next?
The name lady justice describes her role in law and justice
That one dislike bothers me
Ah yes Justice. One of the ultimate concepts for humanity. I've learned more and more about Morals, Ethics, and Law and now I've decided I'm going to become a detective after I become a therapist and help people.
I was just wondering where you found the photo you used at 2:13 of the video??
Excellent 👌👍.
Dear M & F Explained,
👏🙄👍: Your Voice. 🥀....Sublime.
