It's interesting that you mentioned Zeus and Persephone, as she has always been paired with Hades. In some stories, she is Hades as the dark Persephone. I don't think I've ever encountered her being paired with Zeus.
Bacchus/Dionysus would be the old god that encapsulated the world since 2001, especially since 2018. Pagan rights of drug use, alcohol abuse, sexual deviancy. That all describes the old followers of Bacchus/Dionysus.
Oh, and the mad dancing in The Bacchae by Euripides pairs so well with the chaos seen at abortion mills and pride fests. As you try to reason with them, they are in a maddening trance, crank music and dance, kill babies, and party till they drop…
I like the connection with Dionysius leaving the “Areopagus madness”/way of thinking, similar to those entranced by Dionysus divine madness who are able to snap out of it. Also, I didn’t know Boniface is a Saint honored during June. Fitting for Pride month and for father’s during Father’s Day to be encouraged to continue guarding their gardens from Bacchae madness.
