Artemis – Goddess of the Amazons and protector of women

She is one of the most complex goddesses, representing the feminine in all its aspects.

She represents wild, untamed, independent, uncontrollable nature - traits that all women have within them. The Goddess of the Amazons is the female soul figure of all independent women.

As the goddess of birth and hunting, she is both hunter and protector of game and all living things, including all helpless children, especially girls and young women.

She carries and uses a bow and arrow to atone for crimes, especially crimes against her mother, the Earth.
