Dionysus Decoded: Nietzsche, Deleuze & Depth Psychology Reimagine Myth

SEREPTIE

In this monologue, we explore the many faces of Dionysus, from mythology to depth psychology and continental philosophy. Drawing on Dionysus in Exile, the discussion highlights his paradoxical nature—not just a god of excess but also of stillness and transformation.

Nietzsche and Deleuze provide insight into Dionysian becoming, especially through Ariadne’s myth as a break from heroic struggle. The episode introduces "naxotic transformation", a shift from burdens and individuation toward affirmation, play, and creative renewal.

This perspective challenges the modern obsession with struggle and mastery, offering a new way to think about psychological health and philosophy.
