Astrios In Greek Mythology

Improved Essays
Long, long ago in Mount Olympus there lived the God of Astrology, Astrios. Astrios was out wandering around in the dark late night sky around the mountains. He was searching for his long, lost, golden sword.
He stumbled upon a sparkly, shiny, golden powder that had come from his golden sword. He thought to himself if he should pick it up or not. So he decided to pick it up with his bare, rough, impure hands. It felt like a soft, grainy, pure sand.
So he throws it up into the dark nights sky and it lights up the whole park. He then gathers up the all off the other gods. Astrios will then throw a party. He then has all of the gods throw the shiny, golden, sparkly powder up into the air. All at the same time. One, two, three “Throw it up into the air” said Astrios.

Astrios thinks to himself. Then he announces that there should always be light up in the dark nights sky. But not too much light, we don't want to mess up the days and nights. So then all the gods create a commotion about the idea the Astrios. They start a commotion because it's a new idea to everyone and their families.
Then Poseidon speaks up and says “I think that would be a great idea.” Then the commotion starts up again.Ares screams on the top of his lungs, “Everybody quiet down.
The gods quiet down. Zeus and Astrios start a bloodbath. They are in a bloodbath because Zeus won't let Artios put light in the dark night sky. Astrios thinks if there is no light to see the north star, then there is no way you can find your way back if you ever get lost. Astrios overpowers Zeus. Astrios gets to put his stars up. Every time you see a shooting star it’s a new god

    The epic has a similar feel to the Odyssey, the only difference being the Aeneid is written from a Trojan’s perspective. The gods, however, are portrayed in a similar light of causing destruction for personal gain or simply for fun. The gods are displayed by having very distinctive personalities and taking a more active approach in fulfilling their wishes. This can be shown when Jupiter calls a council on Mount Olympus to mediate between Venus and Juno to discuss the fates of Aeneas and Turnus, the leader of the Latin warriors. This shows how the god’s alliances drive the plot of the story.…

    “Aeolus, the Greek god of winds, was often petitioned by sailors, who asked for his help in guiding their ships. He could release helpful trade winds, or he could release harmful storm winds that caused shipwrecks and steered sailors off course. Aeolus lived on Aeolia, called Lipara or the Island of Winds, off the coast of Sicily, and he kept his winds in leather bags, tied with silver strings and locked in a cave. When in his travels Odysseus landed on Aeolia, Aeolus gave him a goatskin bag containing all the winds that would impede his voyage; he warned Odysseus to keep them in the bag so he could return safely to Ithaca. While Odysseus was asleep, his traveling companions saw the bag and opened it.…
