《神话中的信使:蝴蝶、灵魂与普赛克》

《Mythical Messengers: The Butterfly, The Soul, and Psyche》

Language, is, a, "Treasure-trove" buried "with 'Collective Unconscious'." In Ancient Greece, that, birthed "Philosophy" and "Drama" Golden Age, two, seemingly, "entirely different" "Concepts," yet, shared, the same "Name." That word, is "Psyche." Its first meaning, is "Soul" or "Mind." Its second meaning, is "Butterfly." This, is not coincidence, but is, a, from, ancient wisdom, "Sacred" "Pun." It, long ago, for us, revealed 【Soul-Dream Butterfly】's "Mystery of Origin."

 

【Psyche's Myth: How, Love, for the Soul, Attaches Wings】

In legend, Psyche, was a, "Mortal Princess" so beautiful, (she) caused, the Goddess of Love and Beauty "Aphrodite," even, (to) feel jealousy. The Goddess, sent her son——the mischievous "God of Love, Eros," to, use "the Golden Arrow," to make Psyche, fall in love with, the world's ugliest monster. But, when Eros, saw Psyche, (he), instead, carelessly, by, his own "Golden Arrow," was wounded. Thus, "Love" itself, hopelessly, fell in love with, this "Mortal Soul."

Eros, took Psyche, into his, "Temple" in the clouds, every night, in, the darkness, with her, tenderly met. But he, gave her, one "Taboo": Never, can, light "a lamp," to see his "Face." However, under, (her) two sisters' "Swaying," "Suspicion" and "Curiosity," ultimately, vanquished "Trust." Psyche, lit "the oil lamp." She, saw, not "monster," but, the God-like handsome "Love God" himself. But, a drop, of scalding "Lamp oil," startled Eros awake. "Love," because, (it was) not "Trusted," was, wounded and flew far away.

In order, to find "Love," Psyche's "Soul," began, a, arduous "Journey of Trials." The jealous Goddess, for her, set, several "Impossible" "Tasks": In, myriad grains, sort the beans; Cut, the Golden Ram's "Fleece"; Even, journey deep "into the Underworld," to bring back "Beauty"... This, was not, Punishment. This, was, an, unworldly "Soul," growing into "Completeness," necessary "Grinding." It, must, learn, to request "the tiny's" (Ants') "Help," learn, to use "Wisdom" (listening to oracles), learn, to face "Death" and "Darkness" (entering the Underworld).

Finally, when Psyche, having endured all hardships, was about to, complete the trials, (she) yet, because, (she) opened, that, "Magic Box" from "the Underworld," thus, fell into, permanent "Slumber." And, it was precisely, at this moment, that, long-ago, healed "Love" (Eros), finally, again, returned. He, used a "Kiss," to awaken, his, already "Complete" "Soul" (Psyche). Ultimately, Psyche, was, received onto "Mount Olympus," was, gifted "Divinity," and with "Love," eternally, lived together.

【Soul-Dream Butterfly: The Psyche in Your Hair】

Psyche's "Myth," is, our, every "Soul's" "Allegory." We, all, have, due to "Suspicion," with, inner "Divine Love," briefly "Lost-Connection." We, also, all, are, in daily "Work" and "Life," conducting, "Sacred Trials" belonging to ourselves. 【Soul-Dream Butterfly】, is, in your hair, that, little "Psyche." It, reminds us, of that, not-to-be "Forgotten" "Soul's Journey." The "Secret Word" it carries, is, Psyche, using (her) "Entire Life," that which (she) verified, "Truth":

"The Soul, must, endure trials, only then, can win wings. And, Love, forever, will, at the end, be waiting."
