Aphrodite

Aphrodite is the goddess of love,
desire and beauty. In addition
to her natural gifts she has a
magical girdle that compels anyone
she wishes to desire her. There are
two accounts of her birth.
One says she is the daughter of Zeus and Dione.
The other goes back to when Cronus castrated
Uranus and tossed his severed genitles into the sea.
Aphrodite then arose from the sea foam on
a giant scallop and walked to shore in Cyprus.
She is the wife of Hephaestus.
The myrtle is her tree. The dove, the swann,
and the sparrow her birds.
