Erato*

Alchemical Blues move into Red

Psyche and Eros arise and fly

From Soul to Soul –

From Eye to Eye

My Heart swells like a newborn Sun

Under the vault of Heaven –

The great Sea shines in violet Light –

It is the End of Endless Night.

*Erato: the Muse/Goddess of lyric and erotic poetry; she is one of the nine Muses who inspire every kind of verse as well as all forms of artistic expression.

**Psyche and Eros: archetypal lovers whose story symbolizing the development, healing and integration of feminine consciousness.  Psyche personifies the individualization of consciousness out of oceanic Aphrodite’s cosmic feminine principle.  Psyche (Soul) must perform exacting and seemingly impossible tasks before she is able to re-unite with her beloved Eros, the God of Love.  Their sacred marriage engenders not only psychological wholeness, but also the birth of their offspring – Pleasure.
