When Poseidon sued for Amphitrite’s hand, she fled to Atlas, but Poseidon sent spies after her, and among them one Delphinus, who brought about the marriage between her and Poseidon, and the grateful god rewarded his service by placing him among the stars. When afterwards Poseidon showed some love to Scylla, Amphitrite’s jealousy was excited to such a degree, that she threw some magic herbs into the well in which Scylla used to bathe, and thereby changed her rival into a monster. All because of Poseidon… Just the same as Athena turned Medusa into a monster as punishment (after Poseidon violated her in Athena’s temple), transforming her beautiful hair into snakes and giving her a petrifying gaze. This act was meant to protect the sanctity of the temple and reflect Athena’s wrath over the desecration, but Poseidon was to blame. Shame on you Poseidon, it’s always you : )

| Scylla was beautiful…
Scylla was beautiful, even Poseidon loved her – One version of the myth says it was Amphitrite who turned Scylla into a monster. Poseidon showed some love or admiration for Scylla, Amphitrite’s jealousy was excited to such a degree, that she threw some magic herbs into the well in which Scylla used to bathe, and thereby changed her rival into a monster with six heads and twelve feet. |
Scylla Homer said Scylla was a daughter of Crataeis, he described her as a fearful monster, barking like a dog, with six heads and many legs. One tradition related that Scylla was beloved by Poseidon, and that Amphitrite, from jealousy, metamorphosed her into a monster.
