"A contemplative and spiritual meditation on the ascension of the sexy, tender, powerful, wise, and lovely Amphitrite, Goddess of the Sea and the Moon.
Known primarily as the wife of Poseidon, Amphitrite (often confused with Aphrodite) actually predates Greek mythology and once reigned over both the Moon and the Sea, holding far more power than Poseidon or Neptune. She was not to be owned, for one cannot 'own' the Sea or the Moon. Amphitrite was very much beloved but sometimes feared, for the powerful sea both gives and takes life.
Accompanied by dolphins, famous for her tenderness, kindness, blinding beauty, and strength (particularly her reverberating full voice) Amphitrite personifies the Sea and Moon Goddess in much Greco-Roman art and poetry. By the magic of cinema, Amphitrite reclaims her reign as a powerful deity - dramatically rising from primordial waters in order to restore the environment and global equilibrium."―Gwendolyn Audrey Foster

"The Drop, that wrestles in the Sea—
Forgets her own locality—
As I—toward Thee—
She knows herself an incense small—
Yet small—she sighs—if All—is All—
How larger—be?
The Ocean—smiles—at her Conceit—
But she, forgetting Amphitrite—
Pleads—'Me'"
―Emily Dickinson (1830 - 1886)
