  The Myth of Adonis

  Beauty can be as much a curse as a blessing—a truth known well to mortals who have caught the eye of the gods. In Greek mythology, few stories illustrate this better than the tale of Adonis, whose extraordinary beauty captivated goddesses but ultimately led to his tragic fate. His story weaves together themes of forbidden love, divine jealousy, death, and rebirth, reflecting the ancient Greek understanding of seasonal cycles and the fragile nature of youth and beauty.
