#morpheus god

Do you think Morpheus smiles at lucid dreamers as they explore his realm, mesmerized and delighted by the beauty of it?

Do you think Hypnos runs a gentle hand through your hair as you nap away a headache?

Do you think Morpheus shapes a child's dream after their favorite bedtime story, just to bring them joy?

Do you think Hypnos holds you in his arms just a bit closer when someone tries to wake you but you still need more rest?

Your eyes, a labyrinth of shifting azures and verdant depths, where starlit galaxies flicker at the edges - it always tells me it is you.

A collage for the wonderful Morpheus, weaver of dreams. The many shaped, dark-winged god who brings messages from the gods to mortals. May he bless us all with sweet dreams. . .

What do you think of (sleepy dad is what I call him) Morpheus?

And or his brothers Icelus and Phantasos?

I am curious about others experiences and thoughts with them because they are quite lesser known

( i feel like I'm one of the only people who works with icelus and Phantasos its rare lol)

We love the oneroi in this household. I am more focused on Hypnos (and occasionally Thanatos bc twins be twinning and they have some overlap) but its pretty inevitable you'll cross paths with his kiddos if you work with him. I'm not 100% sure but I feel like I MAY have encountered Morpheus in a dream before, but I haven't seen that figure since so I'm not too sure. I haven't directly encountered any of the other oneroi yet (unless they're super sneaky and I didn't notice). But I love them <3. They all represent unique parts of dreams, we wouldn’t be able to dream at all without them.

Even those whose domain is over nightmares are still important and deserve respect. Yes nightmares are scary, but they often refect fears and traumas we need to face and process in the waking world. That's why I've never felt wronged or slighted by Hypnos or his kids for allowing nightmares, they may be a rough experience but they're necessary. Without them, we wouldn't know that we're still unconsciously being affected by x fear or trauma. They tell us we still have things to process and work through.

What’s the one thing every new parent wants? Their baby to sleep through the night. Hypnos with lil sleepy baby Morpheus lulling him to sleep with lullabies and dream magic is so 🥺🥺🥺🥺

Hypnos putting him in a handmade blanket and little hat to keep all snug, going all out with a nursery with a handmade mobile and bedding set and stuffed animals. 🥺🥺🥺🥺

Toddler Morpheus figuring out dream magic for the first time and making the images of little animals running around while Hypnos is stood there trying not to cry because of how proud he is of his little dream weaver 🥺🥺🥺🥺
