The Birth of Venus by Sandro Botticelli

[thewanderer]

Hello brothers and sisters. Could someone please explain to me this painting? I would like to know if it has any meaning or if it is pagan at all, because i feel very attracted to it and in someway it "speaks" to me. Is this Astaroth? And why are the angels spitting her and the other woman trying to cover her up?

Yes, it is supposed to represent Astarte.
