 Born on the foam of waves, Aphrodite is the goddess of love and beauty in the Greek tradition. Belonging to the pantheon of major gods, she incarnates pure, spiritual and religious love as much she does carnal and profane love.
In fact, whilst she presides over love, it is Eros who rules desire and passion. Linked to each other, they represent both the supreme forces of creation and also the driving force in the intimate union of beings.
In this talk of 52 minutes, Michel Cazenave revisits the myth of Aphrodite (Venus in Roman mythology). And by linking her to the archetypal mother goddess, he finds the key into the archetype of the androgyne and the process of individuation, so dear to Jungian psychology.
