The sun god represents all illusions and all superficial beauty of artistic activities.
Nietzsche said: "We use the name of the sun god to collectively refer to countless illusions of the appearance of beauty." In Apollo's state, art "as the driving force of illusion" dominates people whether he likes it or not. It can be seen that Apollo is a symbol of the appearance of beauty, and in Nietzsche's view, the appearance of beauty is an illusion of human beings.
Dionysus represents a state of ecstasy and madness, a reproduction of the most primitive impulse, which may be the ultimate form of art and a mysterious self-abandonment. Individuals feel not the self under moral and legal norms, but the self that has been suppressed for a long time. In this version, people feel the experience of integration with the universe itself.
The sun god only stays on the surface and does not explore the truth of the world and life. Dionysus unveiled the beautiful veil of Apollo, faced the true colors of the world and life, and realized the integration of man and nature.
