    Aphrodite- Goddess of sexual love and beauty

    Aphrodite, ancient Greek goddess of sexual love


    and beauty, identified with Venus by the Romans.
    The Greek word aphros means “foam,” and Hesiod
    relates in his Theogony that Aphrodite was born
    from the white foam produced by the severed
    genitals of Uranus (Heaven), after his son Cronus
    threw them into the sea.

    Story: Hathor- Egyptian goddess of sexuality,


    drunkenness and dance
    - As a goddess who transcended life and death,
    Hathor was widely worshipped and came to be
    idenified with a deity known as The Distant
    Goddess. This is a goddess who abandons her father
    Ra and assumes the form of a wild feline to elude any
    attempts to find her or catch her.

    Demeter- Goddess of harvest


    Demeter was the Ancient Greek goddess of the
    harvest. She was a very important goddess to
    Ancient Greek people, who farmed a lot of their
    food. Demeter had a kind and beautiful daughter,
    called Persephone, who she loved very much.

    Story: Cybele- Phrygian mother of the gods

    - KYBELE (Cybele) was the ancient


    Phrygian Mother of the Gods, a primal
    nature goddess worshipped with
    orgiastic rites in the mountains of central
    and western Anatolia. The Greeks
    identified her with their own mother of
    the gods--the Titaness Rhea.
    Apollo- God of everything

    Apollo was the god of practically


    everything – including but not limited to music,
    poetry, art, prophecy, truth, archery, plague,
    healing, sun and light (although the god is
    always associated with the sun, the original sun
    god was the titan Helios, but everyone forgot
    about him).

    Story: Phoebus- God of sun, light and music

    - byname Phoebus, in Greco-Roman


    mythology, a deity of manifold
    function and meaning, one of the most
    widely revered and influential of all the
    ancient Greek and Roman gods.
