Zephyrus is the Greek god of the west wind, often associated with gentle breezes and the arrival of spring. He is one of the four directional winds, known as the Anemoi, and is typically depicted as a youthful figure. In mythology, Zephyrus is known for his role in various stories, including his love for Flora, the goddess of flowers. Zephyrus is often represented in art and literature as a bringer of mild weather, which is essential for agriculture and the blooming of flowers. His gentle nature contrasts with the harsher winds, making him a symbol of renewal and growth in the natural world.
