Venus (Latin: V) ĕ Nus; Venus is a goddess in Roman mythology and one of the twelve main gods of Rome. Corresponding to Aphrodite in Greek mythology.
At first, she may have been a fairy of an orchard. Her alias is Mutea, which may mean "mountain peach" in Latin. In the later stage, Venus became the goddess of beauty and love due to her correspondence with the Greek mythological Aphrodite, and Cupid was her son. The Latin words "Venus" and "Friday" all come from this. Venus also appears in many literary works and Western oil paintings throughout history. The most influential artwork is the Venus statue discovered in a cave on the island of Milos in the Aegean Sea in 1820.

Venus was originally a native goddess of Italy. Her name may be synonymous with vegetables. At first, she was a fairy of the orchard, making the orchard fruitful. During the celebration of the Vinalia Festival, orchard workers will take a break. Her Roman alias, Mutea, may have originated from the Latin word for the peach or guava tree, representing her identity as the goddess of the orchard. At the same time, she was initially personified by the grace of God.
Due to the later spread of the Aeneid myth in Rome, Venus was associated with the Greek goddess Aphrodite by the Romans, making her the goddess of beauty and love in the later period. At the same time, Pompeii built the temple of Venus Victrix, and Venus was also associated with the goddess of victory. At the same time, Egyptian and Near Eastern goddesses Isis and Astarte were also associated with Venus.
Venus has nicknames such as "compassionate," "cleansed of evil," "immediate," and "hairless," representing the Roman women who cut their hair to make ropes for military use during the war against Gaul.
Due to the influence of Aphrodite in the later period, Rome also created some related legends for Venus.

Her legend has repeatedly appeared in the works of literary masters throughout history, and the most touching one is a long poem written by Shakespeare for her. The poem describes Venus' love story.
It is said that Adonis, a beautiful man from ancient Greece, was nine feet (190cm or more) tall and had beautiful and delicate features like flowers, which made everyone and everything in the world pale in front of him; But he has no interest in love and only likes to gallop through the mountains and forests hunting. He is a plant god who comes back to life every year, always young and beautiful, and has a deep connection with the calendar. He was a deity worshipped by women, as can be seen from the fragments of poetry from around 600 BC by Sarphos of Lesis, where the girls around Sarphos worshipped Adonis on the brink of death. His incarnation is the autumn peony. It is also said that its incarnation is the silver lotus. In ancient Greek mythology, roses were formed by condensing the faces of the gods of beauty and plants, Adonis, and overflowing with the blood of the gods of love and beauty, Venus. Adonis is also the earliest source of "handsome men" in Western countries, and the stories of Venus and Adonis also reflect the common people's desire for handsome men to be paired with beautiful women.

One day, Venus accidentally met Adonis, who was nine feet tall. He fell in love at first sight and greeted him, hoping to talk to him for a while; But Adonis refused to approach the opposite sex and immediately refused Venus' kindness. Venus only had the power to control his actions and confide in him the wonder of love, but Adonis remained unmoved and showed even more eagerness to get rid of her. Venus used all his sweet words and was willing to offer many conditions. In the end, Adonis looked at the goddess of love with a contemptuous gaze, which greatly stimulated her and made her faint on the ground.
Adonis felt a bit guilty and hoped for her forgiveness, so he patiently waited for Venus to wake up. After Venus woke up, he continued to try his best to persuade Adonis, but was still rejected. Love suddenly had a premonition that Adonis would encounter an unexpected situation, and advised him not to take the risk of hunting. Let her be by his side to protect his safety; But Adonis didn't believe it, and as a result, he was really bitten to death by a porcupine while hunting the next morning. When Venus arrived, he saw that Ailang had died and couldn't help but feel heartbroken.
