The Modern Hermeticist | Attis and Cybele (from Arnobius of Sicca's The Case Against the Pagans) @TheModernHermeticist | Uploaded March 2023 | Updated October 2024, 22 hours ago.
The Hilaria festival celebrated by the cult of the Great Mother just passed yesterday, and so we are delving into the ancient love story of Attis and Cybele, as preserved in Arnobius of Sicca's polemic "The Case Against the Pagans."
Translation by George E. McCracken (1949)
