Psyche was marked for death by Venus because she was so beautiful, the people in her village offered to worship her instead of the goddess of Beauty. She sent her son, Cupid, to do the task, but when he saw her, he fell in love with her.
In Greek mythology, Psyche was a mortal woman who was considered to be the personification of the soul. She became the wife of Eros, the god of love, after undergoing trials set by Aphrodite, Eros' mother.
Venus hated Psyche passionately because of her great beauty. People were beginning to ignore Venus's altars and they instead sacrificed to Psyche, calling her the new goddess of beauty. Furious at this mere mortal girl who was stealing the homage that Venus thought rightfully belonged to her, she attempted to have her son Cupid make Psyche fall in love with a horrible monster. When Cupid ended up falling in love with Psyche himself, this only served to make Venus even more furious; that her own son would adore her worst enemy.
