"...dissemble to your son no longer now. The time has come: tell him how you together will bring doom on the suitors in the town. I shall not be far distant then, for I myself desire battle." This is her telling Odysseus, formulate a plan with your son in order to take over these suitors.

From the text:

The goddess Circe told him to go to Hades and "...consult the blind prophet Tiresias" to find out his destiny (Homer).

"...I stormed that place and killed the men that fought. Plunder we took, and we enslaved the women, to make division, equal shares to all- but on the spot I told them: Back, and quickly!..." 
Zeus stepped in to rightfully punish Odysseus and his men. (I think in a way Zeus was helping them because he's trying to teach them right and wrong.)

The Greek God involved in Apollo. He was a crucial part in order to escape from Polyphemus; for Apollo gave Odysseus wine that was irresistible.
"He kept Apollo's holy grove at Ismarus; for kindness we showed him there, and showed his wife and child..."
