Circe (English: Circle), or Cici. In Greek mythology, the goddess of witchcraft and the god of witches are famous witches who live in seclusion on Aea Island. She is the daughter of Helios, the sun god, and Perseis, one of the burning fairies of the Ocean Goddess. She is the sisters of Aeëtes, the king of Colchis, and Pacifae, and the aunt of Medea, the witch.
In the story of the Odyssey, Odysseus and his party came to Aiyou Island, and Circe invited his crew to have a big meal on the island, but put medicine in the food. The crew members were turned into pigs after eating their food. One of the crew members, Eurylochus, escaped and returned to the fleet, and told Odysseus about the situation. The colleague Hermes suggested that Odysseus use herbal medicine (Moly) to resist the magic of Circe. After one night, Circe fell in love with Odysseus and helped him return to his hometown in the next year.
Circe suggested that Odysseus return home via the Strait of Messina, but in this strait he would encounter the dangerous vortex called Charybdis and the female sea monster Scylla.
According to the ancient Greek scholar Dionysius of Halicarnassus (1st century BC BC) quoting the works of the historian Nagornas, Circe and Odysseus have three sons, Romoos and Anteias, respectively
And Ateias. They established three Italian cities, Rome, Antium, and Ardea.
According to the Divine Manual of Hesiod in ancient Greece, "Circe, the daughter of Helios, the son of Hyperion, loved Odysseus, who was determined, and gave birth to Agrios and the impeccable and powerful Latinus."
The Romans located the island of Aea at a cape in the Latium region on the west coast of Italy, named Cape Circaeum. Latium is an ancient region in central western Italy. Cape Witch is a mountain on the southwest coast of Latium, surrounded by oceans and swamps, forming a peninsula resembling an island
According to Hesiod's "Theology", "Perseis, the daughter of Oceanus, gave birth to Circe and King Aeëtes to the tireless Helios. Aeëtes, the son of Helios, who brought light to mankind, married Idyia, the daughter of the ocean god with perfect water flow and beautiful face, according to the wishes of the gods As a wife. The power of golden Aphrodite made her fall in love with the king and gave birth to Medea with beautiful ankles. " It means that Circe is the daughter of Pelseis, the son of Hyperion, the daughter of Helios and the daughter of Oceanus, the ocean god.
In the story of the Odyssey, Circe poisoned his husband, King Salmathia, and then went to Eeya to live in seclusion. Until the end of the Trojan War, Odysseus and his party came to Aiyu Island where Circe was on their way back to their homeland. Circe kindly invited his crew to the island to have a big meal, but she did not have the kindness to put potions in the food, so that all the crew members became piglets after eating the food. One of the crew members, Eurylochus, immediately returned to the fleet after escaping and reported the situation to Odysseus. Hermes, the messenger of the same trade, suggested that Odysseus use herbs (Moly) to resist the magic of Circe. After a night of hard work, Circe was defeated, and the crew were restored to human shape one by one. Therefore, Odysseus won Circe's love and promised to help him return to his hometown in the next year. They lived on the island of Aiya for a whole year, and then Circe suggested that Odysseus return home through the Strait of Messina, where he would encounter a dangerous vortex called Charybdis and the siren. Circe told him how to pass the sirens on the island. With the help of Circe, Odysseus successfully completed the next journey. Later, Circe was very angry because his lover moved on, and Glaux fell in love with the beautiful Scylla. She cast a spell to turn Scylla into a monster. According to the legend, Circe finally married Telemachus, the son of Odysseus who was not born to him.
In the story of Metamorphosis by Ovid, an ancient Roman poet, Glaucus was originally a young ordinary fisherman. When he was fishing, he found a mysterious herb on the shore that could bring dead fish back to life. Curious, he swallowed the herb and woke up with a fishtail. Oceanus, the god of the ocean, and Hehou Tethys welcomed him into the list of sea gods. Glaucus, who became the sea god, once met the water fairy Scylla, and then fell in love with her deeply. After several unsuccessful pursuits, he turned to the famous witch Circe for help. Glaucus' ardent love did not win Scylla, but Circe's heart. The witch advised him to give up Scylla and join her, but Glaucus refused. Circe was so angry that he pretended to agree to Glaucus' request, but secretly he deployed the most vicious magic medicine and scattered it in the pond where Scylla often bathed. The next day, after Scylla took a bath, she immediately found that her body had become a monster with six heads and twelve feet out of her control, and she could not move in the pond. These terrible monsters stretched their necks out of the island, devoured sailors passing by at sea, and became two major dangers juxtaposed by the Strait of Messina and the Charybdis vortex. In addition, Volume 14 of Metamorphosis tells the story of Circe turning Picus into a woodpecker. Picus is a beautiful prince. Circe caught a glimpse of him by chance when he was patrolling the territory, and told him his love under the thick fog created by witchcraft. But Picus loved Janus's daughter Kanas exclusively and refused her love mercilessly. Circe's repeated pleadings were ineffective, resulting in a sense of revenge. She said to Picus, "I want you to experience not only what ordinary women can do after falling in love with a person and being despised by him, but also what I can do after Circe falls in love with a person and being despised by him." [2] After saying that, Circe turned Picus into a woodpecker with his wand. Picus was angry in his heart and pecked the rough trees with his mouth to vent his anger.
