Everything about Aegle Mythology totally explained

Aegle (Ancient Greek Αίγλη) is the name of several different figures in Greek mythology:
  • Aegle, the most beautiful of the Naiads, daughter of Zeus and Neaera,, by whom Helios begot the Charites.
  • Aegle, one of the Heliades, a sister of Phaeton, and daughter of Helios and Clymene. In her grief at the death of her brother she and her sisters were changed into poplars.
  • Aegle, one of the Hesperides.
  • Aegle, a nymph, and daughter of Panopeus, who was beloved by Theseus, and for whom he forsook Ariadne.
  • Aegle, one of the daughters of Asclepius by Lampetia, the daughter of the Sun, according to Hermippus, or by Epione, according to the Suda. She is said to have derived her name Aegle, "Brightness," or "Splendor," either from the beauty of the human body when in good health, or from the honor paid to the medical profession.
