Artemis | Lady of the Wilderness

In the ancient world, the wilderness was a perilous place that offered plenty of bounties but also more than its fair share of dangers. The Ancient Greeks believed the wilds and all that lived there were ruled by a goddess named Artemis, twin sister of Apollo. Beautiful and fiery, Artemis was the patron goddess of the hunt, the wilderness, archery, childbirth, and more. Much like nature, Artemis could be peaceful and generous, but could shift into a fickle and deadly mood in the blink of an eye. From Actaeon, to Orion, to Callisto, Artemis would prove herself, with bow in hand, to be one of Olympus' most effective goddesses.

    Thank you for this video as Artemis is one of my favourite goddesses of Greek mythology - the other two being Athena and Hestia.

    Orion doesn't have a sword and shield, he holds a bow and arrow and the arrow is pointing directly at Taurus the bull's eye. Hence the origin of the statement "Bull's Eye" when hitting the target. Orion's belt stars are the quickest way to identify his constellation. Also at his heels are Canis Major and Canis Minor, his two hunting dogs.

    I've long found it so interesting of how alike Artemis and Athena are. Both daughters of Zeus, both goddesses associated with an aspect of weaponry (Artemis = hunting, Athena = defensive/strategic warfare,) both choosing chastity over love/marriage, both domestic goddesses in some capacity (Artemis of motherhood, Athena of the home,) both took vengeance on mortals who boasted (or where acclaimed to be) better at something than the goddesses were, i.e., Artemis punishes Naobi, Athena punishes Arachne; and to end this list (even though these are likely not all of the similarities) Artemis turns Callisto into a bear for being seduced by Zeus, Athena turns Medusa into a hideous monster after Medusa was seduced by Poseidon. Athena and Artemis certainly are sisters in so many ways.

    Nifty, though there's a goddess I'm more curious about. That'd be a Celtic goddess, known as Sirona.

    I think that the main thing about the Greek pantheon is that the gods are... Very much human. Not that they ever acknowledged that. But they are. They are not pure and perfect. Zeus was a known rapist. And funny enough, his victims never escaped horrible fates. Hera's punishments, more often than not. Callisto was Artemis victim.
