When Poseidon spots Odysseus in Ithaca, he becomes enraged at the Phaeacians for assisting his nemesis. He complains to Zeus, who allows him to punish the Phaeacians
The storms at sea, which kept Odysseus from reaching shore, were attributed to Poseidon who was aligned against him. Poseidon was the father of the cyclops Polyphemus whom Odysseus had blinded .
Polyphemos threw the hill at Odysseus, because Odysseus blinded him, escaped his cave, and then threw insults at him from his escape-ship. Polyphemos then begged his father, the god Poseidon, to stop Odysseus from reaching Ithaka at all costs, which is why Poseidon hates Odysseus.

Poseidon is very upset with Odysseus so he captures him and his partner and they have to figure out how to defeat his monster. The goddess Athena tells them how to defeat it... She says you have to grab the doubled headed snake (monster) and keep holding onto it as it transforms into a lion and all sorts of creatures..... Odysseus and his partner defeat it!
She loves him and wants him to live with her.

Circe and Calypso kept Odysseus from reaching home in very different ways. After Odysseus conquers the goddess-enchantress Circe she helps him . She is an excellent hostess and lover to Odysseus and his men have to convince him to leave. Calypso falls in love withe Odysseus and keeps him captive until Hermes convinces her to let him free.
