Kirke wird von Homer als Göttin bezeichnet. Sie lebt mit einigen Dienerinnen auf der mit Eichen und anderen Bäumen bewachsenen Insel Aiaia (deutsch „Klagen“, von dem Wehruf der Seelen im Hades αἴ αἴ abgeleitet). In einer Waldlichtung bewohnt Kirke ein Gebäude, in dem sie an einem von Göttern geschaffenen Webstuhl sitzt. Besucher der Insel verwandelt sie in Tiere, so dass dort in einem Gehege um Kirkes Häuser unter anderem zahme Löwen und Wölfe leben, die Neuankömmlinge umschmeicheln – und damit selbst schon einen Hinweis auf die Gefährlichkeit der Verführungskünste Kirkes geben.
Circe is described by Homer as a goddess. She lives with some servant girls on the island of Aiaia (German “lamentations”, derived from the wailing cry of the souls in Hades αἴ αἴ), which is covered with oaks and other trees. In a forest clearing, Kirke lives in a building where she sits at a loom created by the gods. She transforms visitors to the island into animals, so that tame lions and wolves, among others, live in an enclosure around Kirke's houses, which fawn over newcomers - and thus themselves give an indication of the dangerous nature of Kirke's seduction skills.
