I keep thinking, we should make a modern epithet for Apollon and his role in mental health/therapy. Unfortunately I cannot find an Ancient Greek equivalent to the word ‘therapist’, so I’ve used modern Greek.
Απόλλων θεραπεία (Apollon therapeía) = Apollon the Therapist
Απόλλων μυαλό/myaloú (Apollon myaló/myalou ) = literally Apollon of the mind
Απόλλων διατεθειμένος (Apollon diatetheiménos ) = of the mind/sanity
What do y’all think? I’m really loving all of them honestly, though I’m partial to Apollon myaló. Nους is another word for mind/intellect, however, the literal translation for ‘mind healer’ is "therapeftís tou myaloú". So I figured myaló/myalou would do fine? My Greek is by no means perfect, I am still learning! I’ve consulted a native speaker but if any other native speakers have any opinions please message me!
