GREEK MYTHOLOGY
13
GREEK MYTHOLOGY All Greek mythological gods and goddesses were made out of their own image, and although they are believed to control the lives of human beings, they weren’t supreme, almighty beings. Instead, they had human flaws. These gods and goddesses were immortal, didn’t get old or sick and had eternal youth. They had human desires and needs, such as hunger and thirst, which they quenched with ambrosia or nectar. The gods lived in Olympus, a 6,000-foot, steep mountain always covered in clouds.
14
GREEK MYTHOLOGY All lives are subordinate to the three Parcae (goddesses) called moira (destiny). Clotho (the spinner) – she starts spinning the thread of life with the start of each new life. Lachesis (the divider) – she manipulates destiny, changes the lives of everyone. Anthropos (the inevitable) – she cuts the thread of life when the time comes.
