Aphrodite Apple Lip Gloss, Aphrodite

Aphrodite and apples are strongly connected in Greek mythology, and the symbolism runs deep. The search results highlight two major myths where apples play a central role in Aphrodite’s identity and influence.

🍎 1. The Golden Apple “To the Fairest”
The most famous connection comes from the Judgement of Paris, where a golden apple becomes the catalyst for the Trojan War.

At the wedding of Peleus and Thetis, Eris (goddess of discord) throws a golden apple inscribed “To the Fairest.”

Three goddesses claim it: Hera, Athena, and Aphrodite.

Paris of Troy is chosen to decide who deserves it.

Aphrodite wins by offering Paris the love of the most beautiful mortal woman, Helen of Sparta.

This choice leads directly to the Trojan War.

This myth cements apples as symbols of beauty, desire, and divine rivalry, all tied to Aphrodite.

🍏 2. Aphrodite and the Golden Apples of Atalanta
Aphrodite also uses apples as tools of love and distraction.

In the myth of Atalanta, a swift-footed huntress, Aphrodite gives Melanion three golden apples to help him win a race against her.

He tosses them to distract Atalanta, allowing him to win and marry her.

This reinforces apples as symbols of romantic attraction, temptation, and the goddess’s power over desire.

🍎 3. Apples as Symbols of Love and Beauty
Apples appear widely in mythology as symbols of:

Love

Fertility

Beauty

Temptation
