ecstasy, joy, rapture
悦 centers on intense, uplifting happiness: a state of ecstasy, deep joy, or rapture that fills the heart.
悦 combines the heart radical 忄 with 兑, which likely contributes the sound and the idea of exchange or release, suggesting joy welling up from the heart.
The heart radical 忄 beside 兑 (which resembles a person with an open mouth and legs) suggests a heart so full of joy that it wants to burst out and share the feeling.
For エツ, imagine the ecstasy of eating your favorite treat: "Eat's" joy! The sound "Eat's" cues エツ while the heart fills with rapture.
