After leaving Circe's house, Odysseus travels to the Underworld, also known as Hades, to seek guidance from the prophet Tiresias. Circe instructs him to consult Tiresias to learn how to return home to Ithaca safely. This journey to the Underworld is a crucial part of Odysseus's epic quest in "The Odyssey."
The land of the deads
Circe, Calypso, Ino, and Nausicaa help Odysseus. Athena helps Odysseus as well.
Circe is the witch-goddess that Odysseus and his crew meet after leaving the Cyclops Polyphemus's island. Odysseus sends a party of 23 men to search Aeaea (the name of the island and Circe's home). Circe invited them into her home and gave them food, but they all behaved like pigs, so that's exactly what Circe turns them into. Eurylochus, one of the men, does not eat, and he runs back to Odysseus to tell him. When Odysseus leaves, he meets Hermes, the messenger god who gives him a plant to protect him from the magic of Circe. being unable to defeat Odysseus, frees his men, but persuades Odysseus to stay with her. after the seasons pass though, Odysseus asks her to help him and his men go home. Circe tells him to seek out the blind prophet Teiresias in the land of the dead for a prophecy about his journey.
In the Odyssey, the Enchantress is Circe. She is a powerful sorceress who turns Odysseus's men into swine and captivates Odysseus with her magic. Odysseus eventually persuades her to use her powers to help him on his journey home.
Circe keeps Odysseus on her island, Aiaia, for about a year. During this time, she entertains him and his crew, providing them with hospitality and guidance. Eventually, Odysseus decides to leave after receiving a prophecy from Circe, urging him to continue his journey home to Ithaca.
It is Odysseus who first suggests leaving Circe's Isle in Homer's "Odyssey." After spending a year with the enchantress Circe, his men express a desire to return home, and Odysseus ultimately decides it's time to depart. He gathers his crew to discuss their next steps, emphasizing the importance of resuming their journey back to Ithaca.
The god who helps Odysseus repel the spell that Circe puts on him is Hermes. He provides Odysseus with a magical herb called "moly," which protects him from Circe's enchantments and ensures he remains unaffected by her magic. With Hermes' guidance, Odysseus is able to confront Circe and ultimately convince her to help him on his journey home.
