Title: Balaena universus hominis View count: 33153 Rating: 4.91 (112 ratings) Description: ~ Ωκεανία & Pleione ~ The Pleiades in the constellation of Taurus are, according to Greek Mythology, the seven daughters of the Titan Atlas and the Oceanid Pleione. Atlas was the child of Uranus (Heaven) and Gaia (Earth). Pleione was a sea nymph, a mythological spirit of nature, a beautiful maiden inhabiting the oceans and one of the daughters of Oceanus. Oceanus is the personification of the great river believed to encircle the whole world. These seven daughters of the Titan Atlas and the Oceanid Pleione were pursued by the hunter Orion until Zeus changed them into a cluster of stars. Zeus is the protector and ruler of humankind, the dispenser of good and evil, and the god of weather and atmospheric phenomena such as rain and thunder. He is known as Indra in the Vedic tradition.
