Mythology Monday ✨
@mythologymonday@thefolklore.cafe  ·  activity timestamp last week

Happy new year, Myth Lovers! Our first theme of 2026 is BLINDNESS & VISUAL IMPAIRMENT. Tell us a myth that features blind characters, visual impairment, or blinding, and use the hashtag #MythologyMonday for boosts. If joining from #BlueSky: follow @ap.brid.gy so we can interact with your posts. See you soon!

🎨 Purkhu, ca. 1820 CE

Indian painting of a blindfolded Gandhari with maid-servants. Gandhari is the queen of the Kuru Kingdom. Her husband is Dhritarashtra, the blind king of Kuru, and in a symbolic gesture of solidarity, she voluntarily blindfolds herself for life.
