Greek Mythology

Aphrodite and Cronus

Just an FYI I hate Cronus he is a butt head. 

Aphrodite:

 Aphrodite was the goddess of love, desire and beauty. Apart from her natural beauty, she also had a magical girdle that compelled everyone to desire her.

Ahhh Love is in the air. Me: Shut up. 

There are two accounts of her birth. According to one, she was the daughter of Zeus and Dione, the mother goddess worshipped at the Oracls of Dodona. However, the other account, which is more prevalent, informs us that she arose from the sea on a giant scallop, after Cronus castrated Uranus and tossed his severed genitals into the sea. Aphrodite then walked to the shore of Cyprus. In a different version of the myth, she was born near the island of Cythera, hence her epithet "Cytherea".

Uhhhh........ don't know what to write here lol. 

Aphrodite was married to Hepheastus; however, she had an affair with her brother Ares, god of war. When Hepheastus found out about the affair, he devised a plan and managed to humiliate his wife and her lover to the other Olympians. Her holy tree was the myrtle, while her holy birds were the dove, the swan, and the sparrow.

Wow Aphrodite that was just MEAN! You cheater cheat cheat!

Aphrodite represented sex, affection, and the attraction that binds people together.

Ummmmmmm....... Nope don't want to make a comment on this sentence!

Aphrodite Is also called Venus, Afrodite.

Cronus:

 Cronus was the ruling Titan who came to power by castrating his father Uranus. His wife was Rhea, while their offspring were the first of the Olympians. To ensure his safety, Cronus ate each of the children as they were born. This worked until Rhea, unhappy at the loss of her children, tricked Cronus into swallowing a rock, instead of Zeus. When he grew up, Zeus  revolted against Cronus and the other Titans , defeating them, and banishing them to Tartarus in  the underworld.

Why would someone eat babies! They have no respect for child birth! YOU HAVE SINNED YOU BABY HATERS!!!!!

Cronus managed to escape to Italy, where he ruled as Saturn. The period of his rule was said to be a golden age on earth, honored by the Saturnalia feast. A festival was also held in Athens, honoring Cronus; it was called Kronia and it took place on the twelfth day of the month Hekatombaion.
