He-Man and the Masters of the Universe - guide to becoming a master of the Universe (part 4)

This post explicates the characters and themes of one episode of the He-Man cartoon from the perspective of Hermetics and Metaphysics. The ancient philosophers (many of whom were running their own mystery schools, and therefore, masters of Hermetic teachings) were of the belief that Pathos (appealing to and conjuring emotions) could produce an erroneous response or error of reason when unbalanced by Logos (logic) and Ethos (facts). In this episode, Evil-lyn, which sounds like "evil-in", a possible reference to "the evil within" all mankind, turns Cathos/Pathos into a sand slug, an animal without a spine.
