The mythology of Orpheus goes deep and working with the asteroids can be a wonderful way to ground our birth charts into the mythic stories we embody throughout our lives. In this podcast episode, astrologers Alicia Cielle Heiser and Lori Kaufman are joined by their friend and fellow astrology Matthew Oliver, the founder of Still Water Alchemy, to discuss the mythology and astrology of Orpheus.
We explore several myths in which Orpheus appears, including Jason and the Argonauts, his love story with Eurydice, and the story of his death at the hands of Dionysian maenads. We also discuss the Orphics and Orphic hymns to explore how the followers of Orpheus oriented themselves in the ancient world. And we dig into the asteroid Orpheus and what it can mean if you have this celestial body prominent in your chart.
