Dionysus- or Dionysos as he is known in the Greek language- was one of the most interesting sons of Zeus. Known as the God who was born three times- by Persephone, Semele and eventually his own father's thigh (!), Dionysus isn' t only the happy and carefree God of wine. The Dionysian Mysteries were among the most revered in Ancient Greece, as the young God was considered the One who helped the souls of the mortals ascend to perfection and return to their Divine Source. Dionysus was worshipped throughout the ancient world.
