Eros-Cupid and Psyche, the Greek and Roman Gods of Love and the Soul

[@WorldHistoryEncyclopedia]

What do you think the myth of Psyche and Eros means?

Really great video, thanks for sharing!

It is a story of human love and a distinction between love and attraction. Fitting that it involves Eros or Cupid. It shows the highs and lows, triumphs and despair. In the end, if love is true it endures whatever the circumstance. Also, a recurring theme is that beauty is often granted favors as seen from the assistance Psyche received in accomplishing her impossible tasks. One of my favorite mythologies and I like your version of the story. I already have the figurine and now a pillow from your store.

Beauty centers upon appearance, Aphodite thrives on self-adoration. From head to foot, perception determines rank in ancient Greece. However, husband Eros, understood why beloved Psyche is a threat to mother Aphodite. Because her heart is true, as a princess, everyone praised Psyche's selflessness. But in reality, she is alone. Their marriage symbolized a "restored unionifican" of both realms. For this to occur, Psyche must prepare to overcome the trials set by goddess of love herself...

From Cinderella to sleeping beauty, right? Isn’t there a scene in one version of Ashputtel where she hast to sort seeds but she gets help from the birds?

The one thing about English which I don't like is how you deform and primitivize the names. How the Greek "Pseeheya" became "Sayky"...
