		Circe's father was Helios, the pre-Olympic titan of the Sun, and her mother was Perse, an Oceanid; she was sister of Aeetes, the king of Colchis and of Pasiphae and Aga.
		In later tales Circe turned Picus into a woodpecker for refusing her love, and Scylla into a monstrous creature with six dogs' heads when Glaucus (another object of Circe's affection) declared his undying love for her.
		In the Webcomic Coming Full Circe, Circe is said to be the daughter of Helios and Hecate and is currently living in New York City.

	Circe, Greek Mythology Link.
		Circe was a powerful witch who, with the help of herbs, muttering incantations, or praying to her weird gods, could turn men into animals, or create unsubstantial images of beasts.
		Circe loved him, but he, being in love with the singer Canens, daughter of Janus, refused her, not imagining what a scorned woman was able to do: Turning twice to the east and twice to the west while touching Picus thrice with her wand as she sang her charms, Circe turned him into a woodpecker.
		At night, Odysseus and Circe retired, and before his departure the day after, she described for him the dangers that still awaited, instructing him as how to avoid the SIRENS and still listen to their enchanting song, and warning him, among other things, about the rocks that are the abode of Scylla 1 and Charybdis.

	Calypso & Circe
		Circe is intimately connected to the ritual sacrifice necessary for life to be reborn, thus showing the divine feminine as being the cyclical vehicle of birth, death and rebirth.
		Calypso passes "her golden shuttle to and fro" and Circe weaves "ambrosial fabric sheer and bright by that craft known to the Goddesses of heaven." The rhythmic, trance inducing act of weaving is an activity archetypal of the Great Goddess.
		Circe is mainly the feminine entirely unto itself,(her power as a witch was exclusively female), yet she is clearly judged by conventional male standards.

	CIRCE AND ULYSSES
		In Homer’s epic, Circe is a beautiful enchantress, daughter of the Sun, granddaughter of the Ocean, and sister of a wizard, and she dwells in luxury upon an island.
		Circe is more than happy to welcome them into her home, and all but one, who fears trickery, enter.
		Circe’s ability to turn men into swine is thereby more easily seen as a metaphor for how women can use their sexuality to make men behave in a bestial fashion.
