Goddess: HESTIA

Hestia is the Greek goddess of home, hearth, and family. She is usually considered one of the
Twelve Olympian gods that live on Mount Olympus. Since she didn't get married or have any
kids, she wasn't as involved in many of the Greek stories and myths as the other gods.

Hestia was usually pictured as a modest woman wearing a veil and holding a flowered branch.
She was a gentle and kind god who didn't get involved with the politics and rivalries of the other
Olympian gods.

Hestia maintained the hearth fire of both Mount Olympus and the homes of the Greeks. This fire
was important because it was used for cooking and for keeping the home warm. Hestia also
helped to keep peace in the family and taught people how to build their homes.

Hestia was the first born child of the Titan rulers Cronus and Rhea. Being the first born, she was
also the first of her siblings swallowed by her father Cronus. When Cronus was forced to spit out
his children by Zeus, Hestia was the last to come out. In some ways she was the oldest and the
youngest of her siblings.

Hestia's siblings included fellow Olympians Zeus, Demeter, Hera, Hades, and Poseidon.
Together with her siblings, Hestia defeated the Titans and joined Zeus at Mount Olympus.

Although Hestia wasn't prominent in the stories of Greek mythology, the worship of Hestia was
an important part of Ancient Greek life. The first offering of every sacrifice in the home was
given to Hestia. When a new colony was established, Hestia's flame would be carried to the
new city to light its hearth.

She is only sometimes included in the list of the Twelve Olympian gods. When she is not
included, Dionysus is included instead.

Hestia never married or had kids. Zeus granted her the right to remain an eternal virgin. In many
ways she was the opposite of the goddess Aphrodite.

Both Apollo and Poseidon wanted to marry Hestia, but she refused.

Hestia is the Greek word for "hearth." The hearth is the floor of the fireplace.

Aphrodite is the goddess of love, beauty, pleasure and procreation, as well as one of the twelve
Olympians from the Greek pantheon. She is one of the most important deities in Greek
mythology, who for centuries has been a muse and a source of inspiration for innumerable
artists. Her name comes from the Greek term "aphrós", which means foam. According to one of
the most ancient and widespread myths about her, it is said that the titan Cronus, after ripping
out the genitals of his father Uranus, threw them to the ocean. From Uranus' seed Aphrodite
was born, in Paphos, Cyprus. She was born as an adult with unparalleled beauty. Many people
are not aware, but Aphrodite is commonly portrayed as a self-absorbed and easily offended
woman with a bad temper. It's likely because of that her life was filled with love affairs, infidelity
and revenge. Her captivating nature made her a very venerated goddess, and a testament to
that is her prominence in so many myths. One of these tells that Zeus was worried that
Aphrodite's extraordinary beauty would cause rivalries among the other gods, as each one of
them wanted to have her exclusively. That's why he forced her to marry Hephaestus, the god of
the blacksmiths, fire and the forge, who unlike the other gods was ugly, crippled and hobbled.
Although Hephaestus would gift her beautiful jewels made by him, Aphrodite was not happy by
his side. That's why she ended up having a lot of lovers - both gods and humans cheating on
him since the very beginning. However, if there was one god she had a special interest in was
Ares, the god of war. Aphrodite and Ares were finally liberated, and had to be forced apart.
However, even that experience was not enough to stop them from further seeing each other, as
they ended up having many kids the fruits of love and war: Phobos, Deimos, Adrestia, Anteros,
Harmonia and Eros. Aphrodite was also one of the main figures in the Trojan War: She
participated in the
Judgment of Paris, and participated in one of the most famous episodes of Greek mythology
known as "The Apple of Discord". As you can see, Aphrodite is one of the goddesses who has
had the most love affairs through Greek mythology, which is why she is present in so many
fables, such as the ones related to Eros and Psyche.

Hades, Lord of Underworld, host of the Dead, stern holder of the boundary between death and
life. Hades is just as powerful as his brothers but his youngest brother took the title of chief
olympian god. This is probably the reason why hades is sometimes called the second Zeus.
Moreover he also the god of wealth or riches which he makes him to control all the riches found
on the earth. Hades is always been painted as an evil god due to his association with the dead
but nothing further from the truth. He was an humble and benovelent god.
As king of the underworld, Hades have more important things to do like coming up with new
punishments for evil-doers in the dungeons of Tartaros. Also, creating plans to protect his
kindom from the sons of Zeus—or Poseidon, so that they cannot create more havoc. With his
helm of invisibility that enables him not be seen from people, his bident and his dog, Cerberus,
beside him he ruled the underworld. But, he may be the God of the Underworld but it doesn't
mean he didn't have emotion. Persephone was the daughter of Zeus and Demeter, the goddess
of spring and harvest. Hades saw and immediately fell in love with her, so he went to Zeus to
ask for her hand in marriage. However, Persephone did not felt the same way towards him. So
Hades created a wicked plan to kidnap Persephone from the Earth and made her Queen of the
Underworld and they ruled together. Let us all remember that Hades is also the King of the
Dead but Hades is not death himself which refers to other greek god named Thanatos.

ARES
(MARS)

The God of War, son of Zeus and Hera, both of whom, Homer says, detested him. Indeed, he is
hateful throughout the Iliad, poem of war though it is. Occasionally the heroes "rejoice in the
delight of Ares' battle," but far oftener in having escaped "the fury of the ruthless god." Homer
calls him murderous, bloodstained, the incarnate curse of mortals; and, strangely, a coward, too,
who bellows with pain and runs away when he is wounded. Yet he has a train of attendants on
the battlefield which should inspire anyone with confidence. His sister is there, Eris, which
means Discord, and Strife, her son. The Goddess of War, Enyo-in Latin Bellona-walks beside
him, and with her are Terror and Trembling and Panic. As they move, the voice of groaning
arises behind them and the earth streams with blood.

•The ROMAN COUNTERPART to Ares was MARS, who was known as a FATHER TO THE
ROMAN PEOPLE.
•The Romans liked Mars better than the Greek liked Ares.
• Ares figures little in Mythology.
• In one story, he is the lover of Aphrodite and held up to the contempt of Olympians by
Aphrodite's husband Hephaestus : but for the most part, he is little more than a symbol of war.
• He is not a distinct personality like Hermes or Hera or Apollo.
• Ares was never very popular—either with men or the other immortals.
In fact,He had no cities where he was worshipped.
• The Greeks said vaguely that he came from Thrace, home of a rude, fierce people in the
Northeast of Greece.
• Appropriately, his bird was the vulture. The dog was wronged by being chosen as his animal.

•Poseidon is best known holding his trident (a large three-pronged spear), and as well as being
the god of the sea, he's also known as being the god of earthquakes, storms and horses too. It's
even believed that Poseidon himself invented horses when Demeter asked him to create the
world's most beautiful animal.He was known to be vengeful when insulted. He was worshipped
as a fertility god.Poseidon could strike the ground with his trident to produce an earthquake.
This earned him the nickname “Earth-shaker.”Poseidon possessed a palace, made of gems and
coral, located on the ocean floor. He was at Mount Olympus more often than his
palace.Poseidon was moody by nature: his temperament was unstable at best, and his
emotional fluctuations often resulted in violence.

(Dada)

Poseidon holds the title of the god of seas and storms. Aside from immortality and great
strength, Poseidon stands out for his ability to manipulate bodies of water. However, not many
people know about Poseidon beyond his rule over the oceans. While water usually indicates life,
water can also take it away. Much like the sea, Poseidon exhibits an unpredictability that would
leave mortals at his mercy. Given his record of smiting humans and deities alike, it only makes
sense that this god rules over the ocean’s unforgiving waters. Take a closer look at one of the
gods of Olympus with these Poseidon facts.His primary means of transportation was a chariot
pulled by horses.Poseidon was the husband of AMPHITRITE, a Nereid. Their union produced
TRITON, who was half-human, half-fish.He is the son of Cronus and Rhea and he was was
allotted his dominion after the fall of the Titans.

(Titan Rhea)

1. Rhea (also known as Rheia) is an ancient Greek goddess belonging to an earlier generation
of deities. She's a fertile, crafty maternal figure and the mother of some of the most well-known
Greek gods and goddesses.

2.Rhea was sometimes represented as a goddess of childbirth.

3. RHEA (Rheia, Rheiê, or Rheê). The name as well as the nature of this divinity is one of the
most difficult points in ancient mythology. Some consider Rhea to be merely another form of era,
the earth, while others connect it with rheô, I flow (Plat. Cratyl. p. 401, &c.); but thus much
seems undeniable, that Rhea, like Demeter, was a goddess of the earth.

4. Rhea was the sister of Oceanus, Themis (Justice), Mnemosyne (Memory), Tethys (mother of
the Oceanids) and Cronus, amongst other mythological figures.
5. Rhea is the sweetest and kindest of her all siblings. She is frequently very calm and able to
put those who surround her at total ease. As the Titaness of Motherhood, Rhea naturally adored
babies and was shown to love all of her own children dearly, even Hades.

6. A daughter of Uranus (Heaven) and Gaea, Rhea was a Titan. She married her brother
Cronus, who, warned that one of his children was fated to overthrow him, swallowed his children
Hestia, Demeter, Hera, Hades, and Poseidon soon after they were born.

7. Rhea was married to Kronos (also spelled Cronus) who feared that his own child would
replace him as King of the Gods, just as he had done with his own father Ouranos.

8. Rhea is most renowned as the mother of Zeus, but many of The 12 Olympians are her
offspring Demeter, Hades, Hera, Hestia, and Poseidon.

9. While Rhea was pregnant with Zeus, she approached her parents for help, not wanting
Cronus to swallow yet another one of her children. On the advice of Gaia and Uranus, Rhea
travelled to the island of Crete, where she gave birth to Zeus in a cave on Mount Dicte. Rhea
went back to Cronus, where she tricked him by pretending to give birth and handing Cronus a
stone that was swaddled in blankets. Not suspicious at all, Cronus swallowed his newest "child".

10. Rhea is considered to be one of the Titans, the generation of gods preceding the Olympians
of which her son Zeus became the leader.

11. Rhea had a temple at Phaistos on the island of Crete and was believed by some to have
originated from Crete; other sources associate her specifically with Mount Ida which is visible
from Phaistos. The Archaeological Museum in Piraeus has a partial statue and some stones
from a temple to the Mother of the Gods, a common title used with Rhea.

12. Statues and images of Rhea may show her holding a wrapped stone which she pretended
was the baby Zeus and is sometimes seated in a throne on in a chariot. A pair of lions or
lionesses, found in Greece in ancient times, maybe in attendance with her. Some statues with
these traits are identified as the Mother of the Gods or Cybele and may actually be Rhea
instead.

Titan 4
MNEMOSYNE
Sapio, April Rose
Villaronte, Shan Mae

The Titans were the Greek gods that ruled the world before the Olympians. The first twelve
Titans were the children of the original gods Uranus (Father Sky) and Gaia (Mother Earth).

•According to Hesiod's Theogony, there are 12 original titans, but who are they? soo... there are:
• 6 brothers named: Oceanus, Coeus, Crius, Hyperion, Iapetus and Cronus
• 6 sisters named: Thea, Rhea, Themis, Mnemosyne, Phoebe, and Tehys.

Who is Mnemosyne? Mnemosyne is the Goddess of Memory.


• Mnemosyne is a figure from Greek mythology, specifically one of the Titans. Here are some
facts about her:

√ Parentage: Mnemosyne was the daughter of Uranus (the sky) and Gaia (the earth).

√ Role: Mnemosyne is the goddess of memory in ancient Greek mythology. She was considered
to be the mother of the nine Muses, the divine sources of inspiration for the arts and sciences.

√ Personality: Mnemosyne was depicted as a wise and stately figure, often associated with the
preservation of tradition and history.

√ Relationships: Mnemosyne was the wife of Zeus and their union produced the nine Muses.

√ Symbolism: Mnemosyne was often depicted carrying a scroll or tablet, symbolizing her
association with memory and the written word.

√ In Literature: Mnemosyne appears in several works of Greek literature, including the works of
Hesiod, where she is mentioned as the mother of the Muses.

THE MUSES were nine in number, the daughters of Zeus and Mnemosyne, the Goddess of
Memory. At first, like the Graces, they were not distinguished from each other.

“They are all, Hesiod says, of one mind, their hearts are set upon song and their spirit is free
from care". He is happy whom the Muses love. For though a man has sorrow and grief in his
soul, yet when the servant of the Muses sings, at once he forgets his dark thoughts and
remembers not his troubles. Such is the holy gift of the Muses to men.”
In later times each had her own special field.

Clio of history, Calliope of epic poetry, the eldest and Chief of all Muses, Urania of astronomy,
Melpomene of tragedy and playing lyre, Thalia of comedy, Terpsichore of the dance and the
dramatic chorus, Calliope of epic poetry, Erato of love and erotic poetry ,Polyhymnia of songs to
the gods and Euterpe of lyric poetry.

Mnemosyne is the goddess of memory; she is responsible for deciding what and who is worthy
of being protected from forgetfulness. The Greeks, more than anything else, even death itself,
feared losing themselves to oblivion; therefore, they wanted to be honored by the deity of
memory with a memory field. Mnemosyne is the mother of the muses, and these were helpful to
preserve memory through the arts, that is the reason why Achilles, despite having died and the
Trojan War, achieved immortality in the minds of those who still sing his feats.

ATHENA

● Athena is known as the Goddess of war, the female counterpart of Ares.


● She was the daughter of Zeus alone. No mother bore her. Full-grown and in full armor,
she sprang from his head.
● In the earliest account of her, the Iliad, she is a fierce and ruthless battle-goddess, but
elsewhere she is warlike only to defend the State and the home from outside enemies.
● Representing the intellectual and civilized side of war, she is the divine form of the
heroic, martial ideal and personifies excellence in close combat, victory, and glory.
● She was pre-eminently the Goddess of the City, the protector of civilized life, of
handicrafts and agriculture; the inventor of the bridle, who first tamed horses for men to
use.
● She was Zeus’s favorite child. He trusted her to carry the awful aegis, his buckler, and
his devastating weapon, the thunderbolt.
● The word often used to describe her is “gray-eyed,” or, as it is sometimes translated,
“flashing-eyed.”
● Of the three virgin goddesses she was the chief and was called the Maiden, Parthenos,
and her temple the Parthenon.
● In later poetry she is the embodiment of wisdom, reason, purity. Athens was her special
city; the olive created by her was her tree; and the owl her bird.

Titan: Kronos

Do you know that.....


1. kronos is a jealous man?
-Kronos was the king of titans as soon as he ascended his father's throne Uranos the primordial
God of the sky. but as he became a husband and father, he was threatened and terrified by the
prophecy released that his children would overpower him and replace him on his beloved
throne. To prevent this from happening, he forces his wife to let him eat his children,
demonstrating how jealous he is of his own blood and fleas, as well as how greedy he is for
power.
2. He is a god once without his own temple?
- When Zeus reached the appropriate age, he punished and dethroned his father and also to
help her mother from suffering., leaving Kronos, a previous king, without a temple. Yet Zeus
eventually forgave his father and allowed Kronus to be king of the Elysian Islands, an area of
the Underworld. According to what I've read in articles from Greek and goodeses.com, Cronus
was not widely worshipped in Pre-Hellenic Greece. As a result, he had no temples of his own.
Temples for the GREEK GODS AND GODDESSES did not exist until much later in human
history.
3. what he did to his father uranos also hapened to him?
- History truly repeats itself, as we all Kronos despise his father's mentality about power, so with
the help of his mother he stoop up and fight for their freedom and with that he bacme the king of
the titans. Yet when he became the king himself he got blind with the authority and power given
by the throne itself. With these he unconsciously became just like his father selfish and jealous
that became the reason to dethroned him for it is not good for all the titans.

4. He ruled and paved way for the future olympians?


- he was the leader and youngest of the first generation of Titans, the divine descendants of the
primordial Gaia (Mother Earth) and Uranus (Father Sky). He also helped in paveway of
Olympians for he and her wife Rhea gave birth to the strong Olympians in the history lead by
Zeus.

5. He took his sister Rhea as his wife?


Yes, you read that correctly! He married his sister and gave birth to six children: Hestia,
Demeter, Hera, Hades, Posiedon, and Zeus. With these setups, I'm really curious why so many
Greek gods and goddesses did the same thing. And, based on what I've read, the Greek Gods
and Goddesses do not believe in incest, which I believe is to preserve their royal bloodlines in
the same way that other Royal Families did centuries ago, and just like Chinese people prefer to
marry closer to their family to preserve power and wealth. As for Rheas and Kronos reasons
behind marriage they don't have enough information but as what I have learned is that Cronus
and Rhea were in opposition in their most well-known story, but historians believe that a more
symbolic clash of powers may have been represented in their marriage as Kronos is destructive,
Rhea on the other hand is soft and loving.

6. Kronos was once a great ruler before he became violent and paranoid?
-Kronos was the King of the Titans during the Golden Age of humans. Immorality was
nonexistent, and there was no need for laws. It truly was a time of virtue and prosperity. Thanks
to the happiness of Gaia, Kronos' mother who was finally free from her burdens and with the
help of other Titans, the world flourished.
