Not to kill them, which Odysseus warns his men not do to - and which they do anyway to their doom.
Circe warned Odysseus to avoid the island of Thrinacia where the cattle of the sun god Helios grazed, as harming the cattle would bring destruction to his crew. Teiresias warned Odysseus not to harm the cattle and advised him to make amends to Poseidon after returning home to Ithaca.
Circe's and Teiresias' last prophecy to Odysseus is that he alone will survive the journey. They also warn him against harming the sacred cattle of Helios, which ultimately causes the death of his men.
If Odysseus or his crew should harm the cattle of Helios, his ship and his men will be doomed. If they do not do this, they may yet reach Ithaca.
Circe's final warning to Odysseus was to not slaughter Helios's cattle on Thrinacia
Eat the Cattle of Helios.
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 was warned to leave Helios's cattle alone by the sorceress Circe. After he and his crew landed on the island of Thrinacia, she cautioned him that harming the cattle would bring dire consequences. Despite her warnings, his crew eventually succumbed to temptation, leading to their doom when they ate the sacred cattle of the sun god Helios.
To speak to Teiresias, as Circe advised.
Circe insists that Odysseus go to the underworld to consult with the blind Theban prophet Teiresias.
Circe warns Odysseus that the island of Thrinacia is home to the sacred cattle of the sun god Helios. She cautions him that if his men harm or eat the cattle, they will face dire consequences, including the destruction of their ship and the loss of their lives. Circe emphasizes the importance of respecting the cattle and avoiding temptation, as doing so is crucial for their survival and safe return home.
