Aeeas And The Harpies Cover
They were described by the Greeks as being composite, with the heads of maidens and the bodies of birds. The wings of the harpies were composed of metal and their flight was accompanied by a terrible clanging noise. During his wanderings, AEneas, the Trojan hero, landed on the island of the harpies, where he and his followers vainly battled with these monsters. One of the harpies perched upon a cliff and there prophesied to AEneas that his attack upon them would bring dire calamity to the Trojans.

Goddess Astghik Image
AMONG ALL OF THE SEMETIC DEITIES WHICH ARE FOUND IN THE ARMENIAN PANTHEON, NONE HAS EVER ATTAINED THE IMPORTANCE OF "ASTGHIK", THE ARMENIAN GODDESS OF LOVE. AS THE LOVE GODDESS, SHE CORRESPONDS WITH THE GREEK, APHRODITE. ASTGHIK IS A DEITY OF MAIDENLY BEAUTY AND LOVE AS WELL AS WELL AS A RULER OF WATER SOURCES AND SPRINGS. THE ROSE IS HER FAVORITE FLOWER, AND IT IS SAID THAT SHE SPREADS HER LOVE AND FERTILITY BY SPRINKLING ROSE WATER ACROSS THE LAND. THE DOVE AMONG ALL OF THE BIRDS IS HER FAVORITE.

SHE WAS THE WIFE OR LOVER OF THE GOD, VAHAGN, THE GOD OF THUNDER AND LIGHTNING, AND IT IS SAID THAT SHE MET WITH HER LOVER IN HER TEMPLE LOCATED IN ASTISHAT. IN STILL ANOTHER TALE, IT SEEMS THAT ASTGHIK WAS IN THE HABIT OF BATHING IN A STREAM EVERY NIGHT. YOUNG MEN FROM A NEARBY VILLAGE, EAGER FOR A GLIMPSE OF THE BEAUTIFUL GODDESS, WOULD LIGHT A BIG FIRE ON A NEARBY HILL. BUT, ASTGHIK, WHO IMMEDIATELY SENSED THEIR PRESENCE, WOULD MODESTLY WRAP HERSELF IN THE MIST.

THE CELEBRATION WHICH HONORS HER IS CALLED VARTAVAR; IT OCCURS IN JUNE. IT IS STILL CELEBRATED IN ARMENIA BY SPRINKLING WATER ON EACH OTHER AND RELEASING DOVES IN HER HONOR. ROSES ARE OFFERED BY HER PETITIONERS. NO ONE IS ALLOWED TO FEEL OFFENDED OR DISPLEASED BY ANY OF THE MISCHIEF DONE ON THIS DAY.
