The Anemoi were Greek Gods of the Winds. Roman name Venti. Who were each ascribed a cardinal direction from which respective winds came and were each associated with various seasons and weather conditions. The Anemoi are minor gods and are subject to the God Lord Aeolus, they were sometimes represented as gusts of winds and at other times were personified as winged men or depicted as horses kept in the stables of the storm God Aeolus. Lord Astraeus God of Dusk and Lady Eos/ Aurora Goddess of Dawn are parents of the Anemoi according to the Greek poet Hesiod.
