Mighty Goddess Artemis



Wazzup Pilipinas!

Artemis is one of the greatest goddess I’ve encountered in exploring the Greek mythology. Besides of being beautiful, she was also protecting those who were in need. She was that exceptional that she captured my attention. This picture was captured in the English Culminating Activity last year. In this picture, Artemis was the role played by Meg Celine Cruz a former Pascian. I admire her because she was able to imitate Artemis: her strength, appearance and beauty really fits in. I admire Artemis mainly because of her courage and beliefs. 


Artemis is the daughter of Zeus, the mighty ruler of the Olympian gods who is considered to be the king of gods and goddesses. And Leto, the early and favorite lover of Zeus. It was said that Zeus married Hera while Leto was pregnant. After an affair and secretly impregnating Leto, Leto had to give birth to Aretmis while being chased by the Python sent by Hera. Fortunately for Leto her first child Artemis, was born without any pain. Artemis didn’t bring any pain to his mother all throughout the pregnancy stage of her mother until she was born and that is one of the amazing things on her.

In Greek mythology,Artemis was the daughter of Zeus, the mighty ruler of the Olympian Gods.Artemis was the great Olympian goddess of hunting,moon,forest,hills,virginity,fertility(she became a goddess of fertility and childbirth mainly in cities) and protector of young girls, bringing and relieving disease in women; she often was depicted as a huntress carrying a bow and arrows and also she often was depicted with the crescent of the moon above her forehead and was sometimes identified with Selene(goddess of the moon).Her main vocation was to roam mountain forests and uncultivated land with her nymphs in attendance hunting for lions,panthers,hinds and stag. Contradictory to the later, she helped in protecting and seeing to their well-being, also their safety and reproduction. She was armed with a bow and arrows which were made by Hephaestus and the Cyclopes

In one legend, Artemis was born one day before her brother Apollo. After an affair and secretly impregnating Leto, Leto had to give birth to Artemis on the island of Ortygia while being chased by the python sent by Hera, then, almost immediately after her birth, she helped her mother to cross the straits over to Delos, where she then delivered Apollo. Fortunately for Leto her first child, Artemis, was birthed without any pain. Artemis her twin brother was Apollo.

On her birthday, when she was 3 years old, Artemis asked 6 wishes from Zeus, his father.
