Browse era →This inaugural episode of Cult of Psyche appears to center around Matangi, a significant figure in Hindu tantra and one of the ten Mahavidyas (great wisdom goddesses). The title 'Green Tongue Queen' likely references Matangi's traditional iconography where she is often depicted with a green complexion and is associated with speech, music, and the arts. The subtitle 'A Song of Matangi' suggests this episode may have incorporated musical elements or chanting in addition to discussion of this powerful goddess figure. As the very first episode (Episode 0), this likely served as an introduction to the show's format and themes, establishing the connection between mythology, spirituality, and artistic expression that would become central to the podcast.
