Dark Chocolate Brownies & Aphrodite

Greek Goddess Aphrodite is commonly known as the Goddess of Love, Beauty, Sexual Pleasure and Desire! As Valentine’s Day approaches, we will be calling on Goddess Aphrodite while making Dark Chocolate Brownies!

Aphrodite was born from the foam that was caused by a splash from the severed genitals of Uranus that fell into the Ocean. She rose from the water on top of a shell and emerged as a fully grown and beautiful woman. She was radiating in beauty and energy, ready to give and receive love in every form. Aphrodite has energy of self-love and can attract love as desired.
