SoulOfABird 433 Eros has other meanings than sexuality and eroticism. It also stands for one's "joie de vivre." The Joy in you. It's what 'turns you on' about Life! Can be related to one's Will To Live. The passion of your life. Life-instinct.
- ref Martha Lang-Wescott
With it on your ascendant? .. I think the words of your signature here at LL expresses it very well.
"I appreciate the masterpiece that is you, because your existence alone is art"

Another website-- (Freudian)
Eros (the life drive/instinct, libido) is concerned with the preservation of life and the preservation of the species.
It thus appears as basic needs for health, safety and sustenance and through sexual drives.
It seeks both to preserve life and to create life.
Eros is associated with positive emotions of love, and hence pro-social behavior, cooperation, collaboration and other behaviors that support harmonious societies.
