  • THEME: Death can never be stopped by love

Question:

Hero: Ceyx- Ceyx leaves Alcyone to take a long journey across the sea. He wished to consult the oracle, men's refuge in trouble.

Mother Figure: Juno- He was touched by Alcyone's prayers and sends her to the house of somnus to know the truth about Ceyx.

When the gods turned Alcyone and Ceyx into birds; every year there seven days when the sea is calm and still. These are the days when Alcyone broods over her nest floating on the sea. When it's winter these days of perfect peace come, they are named after her. This myth is trying to explain that in these peaceful seven days, Alcyone, or more commonly, that these days are called Halcyon days.

Thank you For Listening!!

Supernatural Intervention: Juno helps Alcyone know about Ceyx's death

The Journey: While Ceyx is on his journey through the sea a great storm makes the waves wash over him as he thought about Alcyone and rejoiced that she was safe. Her name was on his lips when the ship sunk.

My name is Casey Ortiz and I was delighted to present and show you guys the myth Ceyx and Alcyone. This myth is a great lovers myth because it shows love and passion. They cared very much about each other even though Alcyone's true love dies. It is a very sad but wonderful myth and I hope you guys liked it too.
