I didn't know what happened to Orpheus after Eurydice's 2nd death. It's relieving. I learned of Orpheus & Eurydice from Hadestown by Anais Mitchell. Originally a play, then a studio album. I highly recommend the album. The lyrics, the music, and the voices of the artists are phenomenal, especially Hades. Thank you Shawn(Sean? Shaun?), for expanding and further enriching my understanding of the world of Orpheus & Eurydice. I liked the tone in which you told the stories.
Thank you for joining in the story of Orpheus! I find that the short tragedy is very well known, but in my research into his life as an Argonaut and his songs in Ovid's Metamorphoses, I found a much deeper and more beautiful story of learning from tragedy, integrating it, and creating something more beautiful out of grief. Thanks for bearing with my voice through a cold! Winter does that. See y’all next time for a journey into Irish/Celtic mythology :)
I really enjoyed how your video tied the story together so well with the Orpheu's role in the Odyssey and all the subtext expanded on with Love was very enlightening.
I have been trying to learn more about the 13th hidden zodiac sign of Opheucus. I finally gave up on good linguistics and looked at the similarly named Orpheus-and the overlay is perfect..enough for continue on my trail. Thank you!
There are a few conflicting accounts of Orpheus’ death. The one you’re thinking of comes from Aesychlus’ lost play Bassarids. My main sources for this work were the Argonautica and Ovid’s Metamorphoses.
For anyone interested in the allegorical meaning of this story should check out the Orphic Mysteries section in the Secret Teaching of All the Ages by Manly Hall. It is very interesting and will raise your understanding of many things. Also the book Twelve Teachers has a chapter on him that is very informative by the same author.
I’m sure you’ve answered this a million times but what do you make these videos for? Are you a professor of sorts? They’re thoroughly researched and well composed, are you doing this just for fun?
Thank you so much! This is a passion project for me, a way to keep myself mentally, emotionally, and spiritually stimulated. I appreciate you enjoying, and hope to see you around :)
Oh this is amazing, great channel!! Thank you!i cant believe i only found you now. Im hooked. It was just a bit painful to see greece and rome as ONE playlist....ouch.As a Minoan Greek i still carry the pain of their appropriation in my DNA.
Welcome, and thank you for your kind words! I’m sure that as the library of content grows, I will be able to fill out some more specific playlists! In the meantime, they are grouped together just like the three main Abrahamic religions are, for sake of convenience. Then there are cases like when the main written source for a Greek myth is a Roman writer like Ovid, where things get hard to categorize. But in the Greco-Roman case and the Jewish/Christian/Muslim case, an understanding of the foundational stories helps one to understand the later additions :)
There are always many versions of stories, of course. My main source for the songs Orpheus sang was Ovid’s Metamorphoses. Thanks for sharing the ones you know!

Thank you! I’ve heard good things about Hadestown, I’ll be sure to give it a watch/listen! Happy you enjoyed :)

Wow, I would love to hear more on what you’ve found. I’m not familiar!
Beautiful story ❤️ ♥️ 💕

I thought Orpheus was dismembered by meneads (¿). How many versions are there?
There are a few conflicting accounts of Orpheus’ death. The one you’re thinking of comes from Aesychlus’ lost play Bassarids. My main sources for this work were the Argonautica and Ovid’s Metamorphoses.
I much more like the story of how he is driven mad by grief and dismembered and his head and lyre are tossed into the sea where his continues to sign
Should have included his death and Lyra constellation
Good point! Yes, it is good to know that he has a place in the stars :) Thanks for watching!

Great recommendation! It’s *very* mysterious and hard to tell exactly what was believed, but Manly Hall certainly seems to be on to something.

Orpheus and Eurydice is life
Such a beautiful story; I learned so much about Orpheus’ later life in making this. Glad you enjoyed :)
Ganymedes was a Phrygian sea god who was the lover of the moon. He was raped by Zeus. And Hykinthos was a Spartan warrior killed by Theuses
