Harpies were the goddesses of sudden and sharp gusts of wind, said to "snatch" people from the earth. There were also the Aurai, goddesses of breezes, said to be daughters of the earth-encircling river Okeanos or the north-wind Boreas. Aura was also a Titan goddess of the breeze and the fresh, cool air of early morning. There were many gods and goddesses representing the elements of the weather and storm.

Eos was the rosy-fingered goddess of the dawn. She and her siblings Helios (the Sun) and Selene (the Moon) were numbered amongst the second-generation Titan gods.

Astraeus was the Titan god of the stars and planets, and the art of Astrology. By Eos (the Dawn) he was the father of the seasonal Winds and the Stars. The arrival of these Winds was heralded by the rising of certain constellations. He also had a daughter named Astraia, the goddess of the constellation Virgo.

How did the Aurora Borealis get its name?

Aurora Borealis was named after the Roman Goddess of dawn, Aurora, and the Greek name for the north wind, Boreas, by Pierre Gassendi in 1621.From the Latin "Aurora" = the dawn and from the Greek "Boreas" = The northern wind. (In Greek the winds coming from the four points of the compass had a different name. Boreas for the northern wind, Notus for the southern wind, Zephyrus for the western wind, and Euro for the eastern wind.)So Aurora Borealis (Northern Lights) mean 'the dawn of the north'.Aurora is the Roman goddess of the dawn and Boreas is the Greek name for north wind. The same effect occurs in the south pole, however there it is called Aurora Australis. Australis is Latin for "South".Aurora Borealis was named after the Roman Goddess of dawn, Aurora, and the Greek name for the north wind, Boreas, by Pierre Gassendi in 1621."Borealis" is the northern aurora, "Australis" is the southern aurora.
