A Love affair between the heart (Eros) and the mind (Psyche). The biggest challenges of the heart is to Love without fear and for the mind, it is to Love with faith.
@The Imperishable Star yea, you wrote: "it is assume originally it is egyption." Which by that, I interpret you meant: "it is assumed to be originally Egyptian." However, an assumption is no replacement for a fully known fact. What really is a known fact, is that it has been proven to be Greek.
@@idk-638 Olympus is a mountain that pierce the heavens that how tall it is and there is the gods home a very tail mountain So technically Olympus is part of the earth
Greek mythology in nutshell, revolves around 1. Being beautiful 2. Being envious of beautifulness 3. Zeus cheating on his wife with said beautiful women 4. Demigods born out of this affair 5. More and more beautiful women and men 6. Hades trying to mind his own business
Psyche was granted with butterfly 🦋 wings as a wedding gift 💝 so she could shore and touch the sky with her husband everyday. Who presented the gift is unknown. Was it her newly mother-in-law that has relented or her husband, the story never says.
this is my favorite story ever. you could think that this is all about beauty, especially in this story, but when you think about it, eros kinda fell in love with her for her beauty (well he hurt himself with one of his arrows but the idea that eros is the one making people fall in love doesn't really make sence to me, it'd be too long to talk about but anyway, i think love doesn't really come that way), but that was probably not the only reason cause he couldn't even see her, at day or at night. and psyche obviously fell in love with him before seeing him. i like that the most beautiful woman and the most beautiful man (i think) fell in love, and not just for beauty. and THEY NEVER CHEATED ON EACH OTHER, wich is basically irrealistic in greek mythology. but if eros is really the one that brings love, it's pretty logic that he wouldn't hurt himself one more time, and that he wouldn't hit psyche (with his arrows) on purpose. the real story doesn't really happen that way, and i think it's even more romantic when you know that when eros woke up and found psyche looking at him, he flew away, saying nothing. psyche grabbed his leg, but fell because she was too tired. eros was still in love with her and couldn't leave her like that, so he sat on a tree, and got a little mad at her (obviously) and left her. he went to aphrodite's house, and layed in her bed, crying and moaning, because of the wound that psyche has caused him, and because of the broken heart. he was to weak to do anything. he was still in love with her, and was completly healed when he felt like something happened to psyche, and we know the end ! and i really like that they symbolize soul and love falling in love. and this comic version is so beautiful ! ps : i hope this comment is okay, english is not my first language....
@@milissa21 i think so cause you know myths usually have different versions but i have a book about this story that was written veery long ago and it seems pretty accurate (however the different endings are usually very similar)
"Who am I not to follow the advice of such a wise and benevolent advice". Me; Lol. "Wise and benevolent", looks at the hysterics she caused when her kid wanted to marry Hades.
Oh you left out one of my favourite parts, in the version I'm familiar with apparently Eros was so hot the lantern oil wanted to get a closer look too and that's why it landed on him.
@@ashishi3141 I couldn't begin to understand what you mean. I've never seen anime; although, I have heard much about it. Anime was never something I considered art. That doesn't mean it isn't of course. Just not something I valued. So if you could explain to me your meaning I would greatly appreciate it.
"And Psyche cast herself from the highest cliff in all of greece. After years of suffering, years of lonlyness it would finally come to an end. Death would be her escape from madness"
Most of Disneys stories are borrowed from ancient themes. But yes, I see it too. I wanted to keep this to myself, but I saw your comment and had to recognize the similarities.
Thanatos is good peaceful happy death the other Greek death god is of violent and awful death so I would think Thanatos wouldn't be intimidating but pleasant
This was a beautiful story but I am confused the whispering voice told her never to open the box under any circumstance but she opened the box and died but was rewarded by being raised from the dead by arrows and nothing ever really happened to her because she disobeyed the order
The two god couples that are actually loyal Hades, Persephone: Yo! Wanna get some drinks!!!! Shyinx: YESS! THEIR SHOT GLASSES ARE MASSIVE! Don’t take this the wrong way but let’s be honest they would all get along lol
In light of the fact that Psyche started out as a Mortal ... yeah, either Zeus fell asleep on that one, or else ... and as I prefer read it: He saw that this Young Lady was uniquely endowed with Brains and Beauty. ... and Fortitude. She was a pretty tough kid. I think the old buzzard on high had respect for Psyche, and treated Her accordingly ... by His conspicuously Old-School standards, of course (still not acceptable how treated others). ~TD, Boston
I read this story in Percy Jackson and the Greek heroes Edit:- in some myths it is bieng said that when phyce did those tasks she was 7 months pregnant
I know that comparing yourself to a deity can lead to trouble that may be well-deserved, but (hopefully I wouldn’t invoked any divine wrath) Aphrodite could have been a little more merciful toward Psyche. I mean, Psyche didn’t really ask to worshipped instead of the goddess of love and beauty.
I put my name 3 months ago as psyche(found on dictionary meaning humand mind,soul),and today i find the story of psyche and eros...and come to know psyche is really a god og greek
