Artemis: Goddess of the Hunt and Moon (The Little Wisdom Library Series)

Artemis: Goddess of the Hunt and Moon, unravels the myth and symbolism of the virgin goddess to reveal her true essence, the independent feminine spirit. In Ancient Greek mythology, Artemis symbolizes independence, truth and intelligence while embodying nature, fertility, and the moon. Artemis also set a new standard for women. Strong, focused and dynamic, she was in control of her powers, never needing a male partner, yet embracing all the nurturing and tenderness of motherhood. With full-color photographs and paintings, and so informative text by Manuela Dunn Mascetti, Artemis is a testament to the independent woman.
