“Today I saw her with my eyes.
My queen all bathed in radiance.
Rejoicing, my heart stopped beating.
This happened at the golden light of dawn,
A miracle divine.
All earthly desire vanished,
Seeing her alone, her alone, only her.”
― Vladimir Solovyev, Today I Saw Her
Notes: Russian philosopher Vladimir Solovyev (1853-1900) emerged as the great prophet of the Sophia tradition in Russia. He accomplished much in his short life in bringing Sophianic philosophy to the Russian people. On Ascension Day in 1862 when Solovyev was just nine years old he had a profound vision of the Divine Sophia which set him on a journey of discovery and wonder.
The Divine Sophia is the central idea in Solovyev’s philosophy. Solovyev saw Sophia as the soul of the world, having three aspects, which allow her to unify, connect, and direct everything. From various key clues within his short poem, we can infer that Solovyev was witness to the Wisdom Goddess.

Pan is the ancient god of nature, fertility and the wild, the companion of the nymphs. Pan existed prior to the invention of ‘the devil’. The early church fathers characterised ‘the devil’ as something with horns and cloven huffs. This was purposefully carried out to condemn the old gods of nature as ‘devils’ and those who followed them as ‘devil worshippers’.
This was carried out to remove the spiritual from nature and break humanity’s connection to the sacredness of the land. The god of the bible demands he and he alone be worshipped and not his creation, quite a strange and egotistical request from an apparently all-powerful entity that created everything. This would be like an artist demanding only personal praise and worship but condemned admiration and praise for his creation.
As for the painting, it’s a depiction of the Greek myth of Pan and Psyche.
It’s a complicated myth that can be interpreted and understand through many lenses.
Within the image itself it holds esoteric meaning; the Greek word pan (πᾶν: "all, everything, whole") and psyche (ψυχή: "soul, mind") the image doesn’t depict ‘grooming’ but instead the beginning of what will lead to a scared marriage where the soul and mind (Psyche) is touched by the all (Pan).
