Free-spirited goddess of the Moon, Roman ruler of the sky, Diana is a fierce protector of women, children, animals, and slaves. Although she was a maiden goddess committed only to herself and those less empowered individuals she served, this sacred huntress was often called upon during childbirth and to aid with fertility. Though her spirit was wild and free, her hunts were ones of reverence and gratitude. Her independence was an inspiration for women and mothers – an example of how to care for others without losing oneself or limiting individual freedom.
Diana is a deity of nature, and comes to remind us of our place in creation and our deep connection to the earth, animals, and the night sky. She exudes feminine strength and sovereignty, driven by immense love. She adamantly defends the right of independent choice. Call on her when you’re at a crossroads or lacking self-reliance. She can bring ease and assurance to your situation through her divine protection and safety.
