Luc Bigé's Astromythology
This site is proposed to you to present some myths from the work of Luc Bigé in his School of Symbols, https://reenchanterlemonde.com/mythologie/
What is the link between mythology and astrology, and why are we interested in Greek mythology?
The stories of the different myths are intended to give us the keys to understand them and apply them to our astrological birth chart. They allow us to avoid the traps they have set for us during our evolution in order to understand ourselves. Greek mythology, close to our European origins, gives us the possibility to live and discover similarities with different mythological heroes and to integrate them into our lives with particular vigilance. The fundamental objective remains to be close to the myth in order to fulfil our essence.
You can now access our blog Luc Bige Astromitologia in Portuguese.

The Values of the 12 Labours of Hercules in Brief
We are told that the 12 labours of Hercules represent the 12 steps to the totality of what human consciousness can experience and that they signify a truly heroic journey. It is a journey full of struggles, some of which are in acceptance and some in transformation. The author suggests that we pay attention to the times when we are more open, more accepting, more letting go, more open to whatever comes up in our lives. And at what other times we need to develop sufficient energy to transform the shadow and psychic energies that appear.
Myths are alive and carry a symbolic meaning that touches the collective and individual unconscious of different cultures around the world.
The capture of the Erymanthe boar
Luc Bigé gives us his interpretation of this third work of Hercules. The ancient Greeks had a way of seeing that the future was behind them and the past in front of them. Whereas we are used to saying exactly the opposite. The way to justify this thought was obvious and quite unstoppable in the sense that the future was obviously behind them since they did not see it and did not know it. And the past is obviously in front of them since they can see it and know it.
The author will teach us that the logic of this understanding is linked to the point of view from which we look at it. From the point of view of the personality, the future will be a question of an objective which is effectively in front of us, there is something to reach a desire, a will of... What is the point of view of the Self, the Sun, the Erimanthe boar? The Self or our soul holds the memory of our future. It sees our future, it holds the memories of our future.
From this point of view, we can become aware of the meaning of the boar on Hercules' back and that, at that moment, Hercules becomes aware of his destiny, of what his soul has planned for him on the spiritual plane.

Picture Illustrating the Loss of Eurydice
When Orpheus loses Eurydice, he will enter a period of despair and repentance. Repentance is the ability to shed tears to cleanse his suffering, to understand the cause of his mistake and to start again on his true path.The myth
invites the Orphic ones to continue to frequent what is essential for him even if he thinks he has lost it once, even if he feels he will never be able to reach his goal. It is thanks to this frequentation that he will be capable to find true love.
