Aphrodite is the "most beautiful" goddess, and her life experience is amazing. At that time, the Olympians began to be willing to pursue power in the universe. One day, the bubbles floating on the sea gave off thousands of holy golden lights. With the ups and downs of the waves, a beautiful and lovely girl rose from the sea, emitting warmth and strength. She was taken to Cyprus by Poseidon, and later Cyprus became her holy island. Her beauty is indescribable, so she is appropriately called "beauty". She wears a golden crown on her immortal head. Her eyes are deep and soft, and her eyebrows are warm and peaceful. Her long hair falls like a waterfall on her beautiful neck and white chest. In addition, her slender fingers and rose-white feet add charming nobility and elegance to her beauty. When she first appeared on Mount Olympus, her slender and symmetrical figure not only won the cult of the gods, but also attracted the crazy jealousy of divines.

She was chosen as the goddess of love and marriage. In order to arouse the love in the hearts of all things in the universe and enable people, animals, plants and animals to reproduce, she traveled around in a car driven by sparrows, pigeons or swans. With the help of her youngest son, eros, the goddess of love, she aroused many touching stories of sadness and joy among gods and human beings. Due to a momentary negligence, she injected the concept of free love into her married life. She has been unfaithful to her husband hephaestus. Once, when she was lying with the god of war in Mars mythology, her husband caught her with a net. Later, he mischievously put them both before the gods. She is kind and responsible. She is always ready to help those couples who are in trouble. She loves adonis and gives life to the stone statue Galati. In the competition, she also helped the young Hippomemphis.

In ancient Greek mythology, Venus was the goddess of love; Legends about her often appear in the works of writers of past dynasties, and the most touching one is a long poem written for her by Shakespeare. This poem describes the love story of Venus.

It is said that there was a handsome man named eunice in ancient Greece, who eclipsed all the people and things in the world in front of him; But he has no interest in love and only likes hunting in the deep mountains and forests.

One day, Venus happened to meet Erdene, fell in love at first sight, greeted him, hoping to chat with him for a while; But Urdunis refused to approach the opposite sex and refused Venus' kindness. Venus only used magic to control his actions and confide in him the wonder of love, but Erdene was unmoved and even more eager to get rid of her. Venus exhausted all sweet words and was willing to give many conditions. Finally, Erdene looked at Cupid with contemptuous eyes, which greatly stimulated her and made her faint.

Judith felt a little guilty and hoped to get her forgiveness, so he waited patiently for Venus to wake up. After Venus woke up, she continued to try her best to persuade Erdene, but she was still rejected. Cupid suddenly had a premonition that something would happen to eunice, so he advised him not to take the risk of hunting and let her protect himself by his side. But Urdonis didn't believe it. As a result, he was really killed by a porcupine while hunting in Rosty Yi. When Venus arrived, she was heartbroken to see that Ailang was dead. Sadness, cursing the love between men and women in the world, is always filled with suspicion, fear and sadness.

In Homer's time, she was often with the goddess of sequence, the goddess of graces and her son eros, the goddess of love. In Rome, she merged with Venus, the goddess of local fertile plants, and became the goddess of harvest and love. Because she was the mother of Aeneas, she was regarded as the female ancestor of Emperor julius.
