I'm fucking screaming now.

I- my mom n stepdad have this picture framed in the house and it's been driving me nuts to find out who the hell is pictured in it.

Help. I looked it up, apparently it's Telemachus??? N whoever Eucharis is?

Hello, tell me about the asteroid Eucharis (181). Thank you.

eucharis, calypso's attendant (asteroid 181)

Eucharis does not appear in classical Greek myth (she appears in an Enlightenment Era epic, Les Aventures de Télémaque), but she is thought to be one of the nymphs of Calypso. The epic recounts a tale in which Telemachus searches for his father, Odysseus. When Telemachus shipwrecks on Ogygia (Calypso's island), he meets the nymph, Eucharis. Stuck on the island, the two come to enjoy each others' company and eventually fall in love with one another. As soon as this realization occurs, Telemachus has the opportunity leave the island and continue to search for his father - he does so. Eucharis can not leave Calypso so the two find their love interrupted by their duty. IN MY OPINION Eucharis in a chart can represent a) opportunities regarding love life when you aren't searching for it, b) love due to circumstance, and/or c) where your duty overshadows your self-interest.

i encourage you to look into the aspects of eucharis along with the sign, degree, and house placement. for the more advanced astrologers, take a look at the persona chart of eucharis AND/OR add the other characters involved to see how they support or impede eucharis!

OTHER RELATED ASTEROIDS: telemachus (15913), odysseus (1143), and ulysses (5254)!

[The tomb] of Eucharis, freedwoman of Licinia, an unmarried girl who was educated and learned in every skill. She lived 14 years.

Ah, as you look with wandering eye at the house of death, stay your foot and read what is inscribed here. This is what a father’s love gave his daughter, where the remains of her body lie gathered. ‘Just as my life with its young skills and growing years brought me fame, the sad hour of death rushed on me and forbade me to draw another breath in life. I was educated and taught as if by the Muses’ hands. I adorned the nobility’s festivals with my dancing, and first appeared before the common people in a Greek play.

‘But now here in this tomb my enemies the Fates have placed my body’s ashes. The patrons of learning-devotion, passion, praise, honour-are silenced by my burnt corpse and by my death.

‘His child, I left lamentation to my father, though born after him, I preceded him in the day of my death. Now I observe my fourteenth birthday here among the shadows in Death’s ageless home.

‘I beg you when you leave, ask that the earth lie light upon me.’

— 40. Eucharis, Rome, 1st century B.C. (ILLRP 803=ILS 5213=CIL I2.1214. L) translation from Diotíma
