My favorite Goddess, Diana Goddess of Nature. The Goddess Diana
was very highly worshipped in ancient Rome. Her greek counterpart,
fell under the name Artemis. Diana in Roman worship, was known as
well as a maiden huntress, protector of all that is wild and free.
This is virtually the same context that the greek Artemis fell under.
However, as centuries past and ancient Rome grew, so did the followings
of the goddess Diana. Diana no longer was classed simply as a maiden
huntress, but grew to the status of motherhood. By the birth of her
daughter Ariadia. Then her path grew as well, to become known as the
Queen of Witches.(This during the famous witch hunts, falling between
the 15th and 17th centuries.) Diana became the mistress of majick.
The teacher of spells, healing, and at the same time still holding her
status as the protectress of all things wild.
