  • Astraeus is de zoon van de Titaan Crius en Eurybia. Hij verwekte bij Eos (godin van de dageraad) de Winden: Eurus, Zephyros, Boreas en Notus, alsmede de morgenster Eosphoros, de avondster Hesperos, Astraia (die vereeuwigd werd als het sterrenbeeld Maagd) en de overige gesternten.
  • In Greek mythology, Astraeus or Astraeos (Ancient Greek: Ἀστραῖος) was an astrological deity and the Titan-god of the dusk. In Hesiod's Theogony and in the Bibliotheca, Astraeus is a second-generation Titan, descended from Crius and Eurybia. However, Hyginus wrote that he was descended directly from Tartarus and Gaia, and referred to him as one of the Gigantes. Appropriately, as god of the dusk, Astraeus married Eos, goddess of the dawn. Together as nightfall and daybreak they produced many children who are associated with what occurs in the sky during twilight. They had many sons, the four Anemoi ("Winds"): Boreas, Notus, Eurus, and Zephyrus, and the five Astra Planets ("Wandering Stars", i.e. planets): Phainon (Saturn), Phaethon (Jupiter), Pyroeis (Mars), Eosphoros/Hesperos (Venus), and

  • Astraeus is de zoon van de Titaan Crius en Eurybia. Hij verwekte bij Eos (godin van de dageraad) de Winden: Eurus, Zephyros, Boreas en Notus, alsmede de morgenster Eosphoros, de avondster Hesperos, Astraia (die vereeuwigd werd als het sterrenbeeld Maagd) en de overige gesternten. Hij vermoordde Hyakinthos omdat één van zijn zonen jaloers was op de verhouding tussen deze knappe jongeman en Apollon. Toen Apollon en Hyakinthos aan het discuswerpen waren, blies hij de discus uit zijn richting waardoor die de sterfelijke Hyakinthos dodelijk raakte. Apollon veranderde hem daarom in een bloem, de hyacint.

A few sources mention one daughter, Astraea ("stars", fem. personification. Sometimes: "justice"), but most writers considered Astraea the child of Zeus and Themis. He is sometimes associated with Aeolus, the Keeper of the Winds, since winds often swell up around dusk.
