Hi Folks! This week we are covering the Greek Goddess of Discord, Eris. She is a controversial figure and very disliked by the Greek authors such as Hesiod. Eris is the Greek goddess of discord and chaos. In mythology, she is often depicted as a figure who incites conflict and rivalry among both gods and mortals. One of her most famous appearances is in the story of the Trojan War, where she throws the golden apple inscribed "To the fairest" among the goddesses, leading to the Judgment of Paris and ultimately to the war itself.
Eris is sometimes portrayed as a companion to Ares, the god of war, emphasizing her association with chaos and conflict. Unlike many other deities, she embodies the notion that discord can lead to change and new beginnings, making her a complex figure in Greek mythology. While she often brings turmoil, her influence can also be seen as a catalyst for growth and transformation.
Invocation to Eris:
"Homage to thee, O Eris, at thy beautiful chaos. Of all that is Sweet, of all that is Bitter, thou hast domination over all. Hail Eris!Hail Discordia! O divine madness, self-created, self-anointed, self-serve, thou art Goddess of Heaven, and Earth, thou did create beings celestial and terrestrial. Live thou in me, and I in thee, O thou Golden Apple of the Sun!”
