This is so amazing!
I love that you used the Roman Gods names instead of the Greek Gods.
I hardly ever see the Roman ones being used, it's so great.

Amazing, beautiful....love the colors. I love anything with planetary symbols. Is that a pomegranate? Genius. <3

Aww thank you! The planetary symbol is for Pluto, the Underworld King! Annnd yes it is pomegranate, in the original myth Proserpina is kidnapped by Pluto, escape hell, eat a pomegranate on the way out; which makes it so that she has to spend half of the year in the Underworld. Soo I thought it was a must to have some kind of reference to that!
Glad you like it, thanks again for the kind words
