[craZchic12]

@BayAreaOrBust nope... or at least, I don't think so. I'm Catholic too, and she's my favorite goddess, if thts wat u mean

[drunkdonutboy]

"Today, the legacy of Artemis can be seen in women who have defied convention, and taken a more individual and liberated route in life. A phantom in the moonlight, she is said to still inhabit the forest'

Haha, reminds me of most of the Aquarian women I've met.

[HistoryLover1550]

Patron goddess of Sparta!

[TheVickyVick]

Happy to be a moon-child!!! THUMBS UP from any other cancers out there.

[BayAreaOrBust]

I'm Catholic but is it odd that I'm in love with Artemis?

[AndreasDourin]

Artemis came down and took the daughter of Agamemnon and saved her from death no human sucrifices where made in Greece you should know that

[Loscar1472]

The bull is the controller of all titans. Defeting zeus, the loard of ancient little gods... Sparing his soul for the love of artemis!!!

[JustAPrayer]

She became one of my favorite gods when I read that she convinced Zeus not to force her to get married. Gotta love a proud single goddess.

[TheZoroastrizm]

[socratp]

[Hosea22]

Artemis later became identified with Selene, a Titaness who was a Greek moon goddess, sometimes depicted with a crescent moon above her head. She was also identified with the Roman goddess Diana, with the Etruscan goddess Artume, and with the Greek or Carian goddess Hecate.

[Hosea22]

In the classical period of Greek mythology, Artemis was often described as the daughter of Zeus and Leto, and the twin sister of Apollo. She was the Hellenic goddess of the hunt, wild animals, wilderness, childbirth, virginity and young girls, bringing and relieving disease in women; she often was depicted as a huntress carrying a bow and arrows. The deer and the cypress were sacred to her. In later Hellenistic times, she even assumed the ancient role of Eileithyia in aiding childbirth.

[Hosea22]

Artemis was one of the most widely venerated of the Ancient Greek deities. Some scholars believe that the name, and indeed the goddess herself, was originally pre-Greek. Homer refers to her as Artemis Agrotera, Potnia Theron "Artemis of the wildland, Mistress of Animals".

[EnglishRose719]

[OhjainHangeriGP]

My artist name on video game reviewing is Artemis althought I'm male. It's actually a reference to Artemis Fowl who is also male, but I think this god is interesting aswell.

[greatamerica1001]

Artemis rocks! She's my fav goddes!

[skateskate624]

She is AWESOME!!! in a way, she is kinda badass

[SpunkStalker101]

Why should Artemis be an Olympian when she doesn't spend any time on Mt. Olympus! She hangs out around mountains and forests etc on earth.

She should have left to give Dionysis her seat instead of Hestia.

[kteenpop098]

@SpunkStalker101 so wat she was the daughter of zeus and leto and dionysus is only the so of zeus and a mortal..no offense i can b defensive about my fave things/people

[disneyworldstar]

@SpunkStalker101 you are so mean. ARTemis was the best Olympian. she does spend time on mt.olympus

[SpunkStalker101]

@disneyworldstar How am I being mean? I like Artemis but I just pointed out that she preferred to spend her time among nature, in forests, mountains, rivers etc. instead of on Olympus.

[disneyworldstar]

@SpunkStalker101 because she is the goddess of the hunt. she needs to stay in forests, mountains, rivers . zeus stays in the sky !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!so artemis stays in the forests!!!!!!!!!!!!

[sushinami48]

I love Artemis!!

[hotchick1860]

ARTEMIS RULES!

[AstroMen2911]

do you think that Artemis turn Medusa into a gorgan because she did not fight back Posieden when He rapped her. Making Artemis ashamed and angry... teaching women that it is better to die by protecting ones own honor then it is to live in shame. That no man can and should not love a girl who does not fight for her own... just a thought

[FacelessFallenAngel]

@AstroMen2911 I think Athena turned Medusa into a Gorgon

[AstroMen2911]

@FacelessFallenAngel Im sorry, you're right, Im always getting those two Goddesses mixed up... Its got to do with that golden apple thing with Aphrodite.

[FacelessFallenAngel]

@AstroMen2911 no worries
