According to Hesiod Aphrodite was born when Cronus cut off Uranus's genitals and threw them into the sea, and she arose from the sea foam (aphros). However, according to Homer she was the daughter of Zeus and Dione and according to Plato these two accounts were related to two separate goddesses: Aphrodite Ourania and Aphrodite Pandemos.

Who was born from the blood of Chronus?
As far as I have read no one was born of the blood of Cronus. However, there is a story stating that Cronus did castrate his father Uranus. When his "member" dropped blood on the earth the Gigantes, Erinyes, and Meliae were produced. Cronus then cast the "member" into the sea and Aphrodite later emerged. Other stories say that Aphrodite was born of Zeus and Dione(Goddess of the Oak) But I think that one is crap. Because once you start reading those they change from Aphrodite to Venus. Some one was a little confused that day I think. I hope I answered ur question helpfully. : }
