#39 | Psyche & Eros | Part Two | The Four Tasks of Psyche
from On the Soul's Terms
This episode is the second half of the epic tale of Psyche & Eros from the 2nd Century AD, moving forward from episode #38. Psyche, devastated at the loss of her husband Eros, throws herself in the river. The river doesn't accept her sacrifice and washes her up to the shore where she sees the great god Pan playing around with his pipes. From this encounter she is emboldened and ready to take on her journey, the journey we all have to embark upon, the return to Eros. Along the way we meet the Goddesses Demeter and Hera and their temples on hills and in forests. Until finally Psyche confronts Venus (Aphrodite) and accepts her four tasks - the tasks of the soul.Artwork for this episode is from Edward Burne-Jones.Join the Newsletter!Podcast Musician: Marlia CoeurPlease consider becoming a Patron to support the show!Go to OnTheSoulsTerms.com for more.
