Circe told him about the Siren and Scylla and Chrybdis
Odysseus's adventures in this section, particularly with the Sirens and Scylla and Charybdis, are often considered more perilous and psychologically intense than his encounters with the Cyclopes and Circe. The Sirens pose a unique challenge that tests his resolve and self-control, while Scylla and Charybdis present a dire choice between two evils, highlighting the theme of leadership and sacrifice. Compared to the physical confrontations with the Cyclopes and the transformative experience with Circe, these latter adventures delve deeper into the complexities of temptation and the moral dilemmas inherent in his journey home.
Circe hinders Odysseus by first turning his men into animals and delaying Odysseus' progress. Once Odysseus manages to resist her spell (with Hermes' help), Odysseus then take her to bed for her to turn his men back into humans. For a year after, Odysseus feasts and stays with Circe, which further delays his return to Ithaca. When Odysseus and his men feel it is time to leave, Circe helps Odysseus by advising him to visit the prophet Teiresias in the Underworld. There he learns of the dangers ahead of Scylla, Charybdis, the Sirens, and Helios' cattle.
Odysseus goes through the Sirens by putting beeswax in their ears. Odysseus is tied to the mast while the Sirens are surrounding them and is begging for his soilders to untie him but they don't. He goes through Scylla by just going past it, letting 6 of his men get eaten by Scylla. And he sailed closer to Scylla to get past Charybdis.

Scylla and Charybdis are both Greek monsters. They both killed travelers. Scylla ate travelers and Charybdis drowned them by making whirlpools.
After passing the Sirens, Odysseus faces the perilous strait between Scylla and Charybdis. Scylla is a six-headed monster that devours sailors, while Charybdis is a massive whirlpool that swallows the sea, threatening to pull the ship and crew into its depths. Odysseus must navigate this treacherous passage carefully, knowing that he will have to sacrifice some of his men to Scylla to avoid the greater danger of being swallowed by Charybdis. This highlights the difficult choices and sacrifices he must make on his journey home.
