Diana – Roman Goddess of the Moon, the Hunt, and Sovereignty

CULTURAL SIGNIFICANCE:

• Diana is the Roman goddess of the hunt, wild animals, the moon, and sacred feminine independence—often equated with the Greek goddess Artemis. As a virgin goddess and protector of women, she was revered for her autonomy, fierce strength, and deep connection to nature.

• Worshipped in forest sanctuaries, especially at Lake Nemi (her sacred grove), Diana was also seen as a lunar deity and guardian of childbirth, transitions, and the untamed soul.

• Over time, she became associated with witchcraft and female mysticism, particularly through her role in Roman and later Italian folk magic traditions like Stregheria.
