The Four Winds (Anemoi) Coloring Pages
Welcome to our Four Winds coloring pages section.
The Anemoi are the ancient Greek gods of the four winds. Each wind comes from a different direction, bringing its own weather and character. From icy northern gusts to gentle western breezes, the Anemoi are both powerful and playful, shaping the seasons and the skies.
These coloring pages let you explore each wind as a character, learn a little about Greek mythology, and have fun bringing the breezes to life with color.
Boreas, the North Wind
Boreas is the strong and chilly North Wind, bringing winter storms and frost. He is often shown as a winged, muscular man blowing cold air across the land.
Notus, the South Wind
Notus is the South Wind, known for hot summer storms and heavy rain. He can be unpredictable, bringing both nourishment and sudden floods to the land.
Eurus, East Wind
Eurus is the East Wind, a restless and changeable wind often associated with autumn storms. He is clever and unpredictable, stirring the skies and seas in unexpected ways.
Zephyrus, West Wind
Zephyrus is the gentle West Wind, bringing spring breezes, flowers, and renewal. Known for his kindness and playfulness, he spreads warmth and life wherever he blows.
About the Anemoi, the four wind gods:
The Anemoi, the Greek gods of the winds, bring the sky to life with their power and personality. Picture Boreas, Notus, Eurus, and Zephyrus each moving across the heavens, carrying their unique weather and energy to the world below. Winged and graceful, these divine spirits blow from different directions - sometimes strong and cold, sometimes gentle and warm - shaping the seasons and the skies.
Imagine the world of the Anemoi: storm clouds swirling with Boreas’ icy gusts, summer rain falling under Notus’ watchful hand, autumn breezes stirring leaves with Eurus, and springtime petals carried by Zephyrus’ soft west wind. Birds, clouds, and trees respond to their movement, creating a sky alive with energy, color, and motion.
Each wind carries a story: Boreas brings winter’s chill, Notus delivers summer storms, Eurus stirs change with unpredictable gusts, and Zephyrus spreads warmth, flowers, and gentle breezes. Together, they remind us that the air around us is full of life and character, and that the seasons themselves are guided by forces both playful and powerful.
