Female gender affirming wording, adapted from the end of the Letter to Menoeceus - And you will live as a Goddess among humankind: for a woman who lives in the midst of immortal goods is unlike a merely mortal being.
Notes on how I made the graphic: I took a photo with my tablet of an imitation alabaster sculpture "Two Graces Crowning Venus", that I recently bought at a flea market. I removed the background and placed it at a slight transparency on top the the image of the rose arbor (created using text-to-image) and put a circle between (with transparency).
The ending of the letter reads: "So practice these and similar things day and night, by yourself and with a like-minded friend, and you will never be disturbed whether waking or sleeping, and you will live as a god among men: for a man who lives in the midst of immortal goods is unlike a merely mortal being." (Saint-Andre translation)
