YOUR FAV GREEK GODS AND GODDESSES

Postby darinnes042490 » Tue Sep 22, 2009 3:00 am

    

The Olympian gods were the main deities in Ancient Greece. All gods were associated with birth myths but themselves were unaging. After overthrowing their ancestors, the Titans, the Olympian gods were the rulers of the Cosmos and represented the civilization of the world.

The Olympian gods were majestically and democratically dwelling on Mount Olympus, the highest mountain in Greece, built by the Cyclops. The leader of the Olympian gods was Zeus. All Olympian Gods were having human weaknesses and were obliged to take the full responsibility of their actions

THE OLYMPIAN GODS

APHRODITE
Image
Aphrodite was the Greek goddess of Love, Beauty and Eternal Youth
Aphrodite was the most attractive goddess of Mount Olympus. She was the goddess of Love, Beauty and Eternal Youth, arousing desire to gods and humans as well as birds and beasts. In addition, she was connected with the death/rebirth of nature and human beings.



APOLLO

Apollo was the Olympian God of the Sun, the Light, the Music and the Prophecy
Apollo was born by the King of the Gods Zeus and the mortal Leto in the divine Greek island of Delos. He was the younger twin of Artemis, the goddess of the hunt

ARES
Image(ARES VS ATHENA TROJAN WAR)
Ares was the Olympian God of War and the figure behind all kind of violence
Ares, the Greek god of War, was the son of Zeus and Hera. The half-sister of Ares was Athena, the goddess of Wisdom and Skill. Athena also was a goddess of War but approached war solely for the purposes of justice.

ARTEMIS
Image
Artemis was the Greek goddess of the Hunt and the Moon and protector of expectant women and the young.
As a child, Artemis had asked from her father Zeus to remain an eternal virgin and therefore became one of the three Virgin Goddesses in Greek mythology. Artemis had absolute sovereignty over nature and was said to bring fertility to all places that worshipped her. Usually accompanied by Nymphs and Oceanids, Artemis loved to hunt with arrows dipped in poison

ATHENA
Image
Athena was the Greek goddess of wisdom, skill and war
After competing against the Greek god Poseidon, Athena officially became the patron deity of the city of ancient Athens and the Parthenon was built in her honour. She was known as "Athena Nike" (Athena the victorious), as she was believed to have given the Athenians the victory during the Persian War.

DEMETER
Image(DEMETER AND HER DAUGHTER GODDESS OF SPRING PERSEPHONE WITH HADES)
Demeter was the greek goddess of agriculture and vegetation
Demeter was a peace-loving deity and the source of all growth and life; she was the goddess who provided all nutrition on the earth and taught mortals how to cultivate the earth and ease life. Demeter was most appreciated for introducing wheat to mankind, making man different from animals.


DIONYSUS
Image(WITH BACCHUS AND SOME NYMPS)
Dionysus was the Greek God of Wine, Joy and Theatre and a Lover of Peace
Dionysus was known for his lightheartness and always offered his help to anyone in need. He was therefore very popular among gods and mortals and many feasts were being held every year in his honor.

Dionysus was one of the Olympian gods who actually did not live in Mount Olympus but was constantly travelling around the world together with Satyrs and Maenads in order to discover the secrets of winemaking.

HADES
Image(WITH PERSEPHONE)
Hades was the ruler of the Underworld
Greek god Hades was a son of the titans Cronus and Rhea. Hades' wife was Persephone, whom he abducted from her divine mother Demeter and took with him down to the Underworld
Hades was the Greek god of the Dead and, according to Plato, he should be considered as one of the Olympian gods.Hades was the supreme ruler of the Underworld. Almost never did he leave his gloomy kingdom but was residing there instead, surrounded by darkness and silence...
Hades' helper was Charos, the angel of dead. Charos had the duty to transfer the dead people 's souls with a boat over the River Acheron from the world of the living to the world of the dead. Furthermore, Hades had a dog with three heads which was named Cerberus.


HEPAESTUS
Image
he was the god of fire,volcanoes,blacksmith and metallurgy
Hephaestus is the only Olympian god to have been exiled from Olympus and to have returned. In a Homeric version of Hephaestus's myth, Hera, mortified to have brought forth such grotesque offspring, promptly threw him from Mount Olympus. He fell nine days and nights and landed in the ocean, where he was brought up by the Oceanids Thetis (mother of Achilles) and Eurynome.


HERA
Image
Hera was the goddess of Marriage and Family and protector of married women.
Hera was born by the Titans Cronus and Rhea and was one of the three sisters of Zeus and later on became his wife as well.
The royal wedding of Zeus and Hera was celebrated with exceptional splendour and the couple gave birth to four children; Eilithyia, the goddess who was protecting the childbirth, Ares, the Olympian god of war, Hebe, the goddess of youth and Hephaestus, the Olympian god of metallurgy. According to some beliefs, Hephaestus was born without the intervention of Zeus


HERMES
Image
Hermes was the Greek God of the Trade and luck-bringing Messenger of the Gods.
Hermes was wearing wings on his sandals and therefore was the speediest of all Greek gods. Because of his speed, Hermes received the role of the messenger and conductor of souls to the Underworld. Hermes was the only Olympian god who was authorized to visit Heaven, Earth and also the Underworld and enjoyed this way popularity among all the Greek gods and spirits.


HESTIA
Image
Hestia was the goddess of the hearth, home and family
Hestia personified the fire hat was burning in the hearth of every home. All families were pouring sweet wine in her name and dedicated her the richest portion. The hearth fire was not allowed to go out by any family unless it was ritually extinguished. Hestia herself was never leaving her residence, the sacred mountain of Olympus.
Hestia may not have had a public cult, but she was always worshipped in any temple, regardless of the god it was dedicated to. All Olympian deities respected and loved Hestia because of her kind, forgiving soul and her discrete character, since Hestia never participated in any disputes or wars.

POSEIDON
Image
Poseidon was the God of the Seas, the horses and the earthquakes.
Poseidon was the Greek god responsible for natural and supernatural events, mainly the ones associated to the sea world. He possessed a trident which was so powerful that it could shake the earth. Poseidon could cause tempests and earthquakes, drown lands, shatter rocks and had the ability to finally bring back peacefulness.
Poseidon possessed two palaces, the one was up in Mount Olympus and the other was located in the depths of the seas and was bejewelled with gold and precious gems. Usually Poseidon preferred to stay with his wife Amphitrite beneath the ocean.


ZEUS
Image
Zeus was the Supreme God in Ancient Greece, father of the Olympian gods and ruler of mankind.
Zeus had his golden throne on the highest summit of Mount Olympus and was respected and awed by all Gods and mortals. He was the "Lord of Justice", punishing anyone who lied or broke an oath, but was fair and always striving to keep a balance of all things.
Furthermore, Zeus was responsible for the weather and was shaping it according to his temper. When in high spirits, Zeus was blessing the world with fine weather; in case of bad mood, however, he would throw rain, winds, lightnings and thunderbolts to cause disaster to the mortals.

But even Zeus' powers had their limits, for, however powerful as he was, he had neither the right nor the ability to intervene the decisions of the Fates.






i love goddess artemis and hestia...

Aphrodite, goddess of romance and passion, of fashion beauty and art, has captivated poets and painters for centuries. Known for her numerous affairs of the heart, as well as her willingness to help others find the love they sought, the myths of the Greek goddess Aphrodite reveal the awesome extent of her power.

Allso known as the Roman goddess Venus, Aphrodite had one gift and one gift only . . . to make love. And that one gift was so very special that no one seemed to resent her. While all the other gods and goddesses had lengthy lists of divine duties to perform, the goddess Aphrodite was assigned only one . . . to bring love into the world.

The goddess Aphrodite's irresistible touch changed the shape of the lives of individuals and changed the course of human history. Both playful, sophisticated and full of zest, Aphrodite makes our world a livelier, and much more beautiful, place.
