II · NYMPHUS 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘉𝘳𝘪𝘥𝘦 · 𝘝𝘦𝘯𝘶𝘴 The Bride is mystically joined to Mithras. Veil, torch, diadem, and lamp mark the rite of sacred union. III · MILES 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘚𝘰𝘭𝘥𝘪𝘦𝘳 · 𝘔𝘢𝘳𝘴 The Soldier enters Mithras’ service beneath a military oath. Offered a wreath upon a sword, he rejects it and declares Mithras alone his wreath. IV · LEO 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘓𝘪𝘰𝘯 · 𝘑𝘶𝘱𝘪𝘵𝘦𝘳 The Lion belongs to the fiery and arid sphere. His hands and tongue are purified with honey, while the fire-shovel marks his grade.

Teacher, initiate-maker, and guardian of the community, he bears the staff, ring, sickle, and Phrygian cap. #ancientrome #romanempire #mithras #martial #erosblest
