  • 27: The Power of Discord: Exploring Eris, the Goddess of Chaos
    Oct 6 2024
    Hi Folks! This week we are covering the Greek Goddess of Discord, Eris. She is a controversial figure and very disliked by the Greek authors such as Hesiod. Eris is the Greek goddess of discord and chaos. In mythology, she is often depicted as a figure who incites conflict and rivalry among both gods and mortals. One of her most famous appearances is in the story of the Trojan War, where she throws the golden apple inscribed "To the fairest" among the goddesses, leading to the Judgment of Paris and ultimately to the war itself.

    Eris is sometimes portrayed as a companion to Ares, the god of war, emphasizing her association with chaos and conflict. Unlike many other deities, she embodies the notion that discord can lead to change and new beginnings, making her a complex figure in Greek mythology. While she often brings turmoil, her influence can also be seen as a catalyst for growth and transformation.

    Invocation to Eris:
    "Homage to thee, O Eris, at thy beautiful chaos. Of all that is Sweet, of all that is Bitter, thou hast domination over all. Hail Eris!Hail Discordia! O divine madness, self-created, self-anointed, self-serve, thou art Goddess of Heaven, and Earth, thou did create beings celestial and terrestrial. Live thou in me, and I in thee, O thou Golden Apple of the Sun!”

  • 25: Inspiration Personified: Meet the Nine Muses of Greek Mythology
    Sep 22 2024
    This week is all about the Greek Muses! The Muses have a rich history in ancient Greek mythology, embodying the ideals of art and knowledge. Their origins can be traced back to early Greek religion, where they were considered divine figures associated with creativity and inspiration.
    Early Origins
    • Hesiod’s Theogony: The Muses are first prominently mentioned in Hesiod's "Theogony" (circa 700 BCE), where they are described as the daughters of Zeus and Mnemosyne, the goddess of memory. Hesiod identifies them as nine in number, each presiding over different aspects of the arts and sciences.
    Roles and Functions
    • The Muses served as sources of inspiration for poets, musicians, and artists, often invoked at the beginning of literary works. They were believed to bestow the gift of creativity upon mortals.
    • Each Muse was associated with specific domains: Calliope with epic poetry, Clio with history, Erato with love poetry, and so on.
    Cult and Worship
    • Temples and shrines were dedicated to the Muses, especially in places like Helicon and Parnassus, which were considered sacred to them. Festivals celebrating the Muses included poetry competitions and musical performances.
    • The Muses were often depicted in art, usually shown as beautiful young women, each holding attributes that symbolize their respective domains.
    The Muses continue to inspire contemporary culture, representing the pursuit of creativity in various forms of art and literature. Their legacy endures as archetypes of inspiration, symbolizing the timeless human quest for knowledge and artistic expression.

    Orphic Hymn to the Muses:
    The Fumigation from Frankincense.
    Daughters of Jove [Zeus and Mnemosyne], dire-sounding and divine,
    renown'd Pierian, sweetly speaking Nine;
    To those whose breasts your sacred furies fire much-form'd, the objects of supreme desire:
    Sources of blameless virtue to mankind, who form to excellence the youthful mind;
    Who nurse the soul, and give her to descry the paths of right with Reason's steady eye.
    Commanding queens who lead to sacred light the intellect refin'd from Error's night;
    And to mankind each holy rite disclose, for mystic knowledge from your nature flows.
    Clio, and Erato, who charms the sight, with thee Euterpe minist'ring delight:
    Thalia flourishing, Polymina fam'd, Melpomene from skill in music nam'd:
    Terpischore, Urania heav'nly bright, with thee who gav'st me to behold the light.
    Come, venerable, various, pow'rs divine, with fav'ring aspect on your mystics shine;
    Bring glorious, ardent, lovely, fam'd desire, and warm my bosom with your sacred fire.
