In
Greek mythology, the Anemoi (in
Greek, Άνεμοι — "winds") were wind gods who were each ascribed a
cardinal direction, from which their respective winds came, and were each associated with various
seasons and weather conditions. They were sometimes represented as mere gusts of wind, at other times were personified as winged men, and at still other times were depicted as
horses kept in the stables of the storm god
Aeolus, who provided
Odysseus with the Anemoi in the
Odyssey.
Astraeus, the astrological deity sometimes associated with Aeolus, and
Eos, the goddess of the dawn, were the parents of the Anemoi, according to the
Greek poet
Hesiod.
