The following is a Tribute to Goddess Artemis Goddess of the Hunt, Protectress of Women,
Guardian of the Divine Feminine and Divine Healer
Goddess Diana is the Triple Goddess. She is the Maiden The Mother and The Crone and in all phases
of the Moon she is the Ultimate Healer and Wyse
Woman. I Devote My website Tantra Butterfly To the Goddess Diana whose name I share. It is
Because of Goddess and In honor of Goddess that I am
here able to do my healing work and each day I am deeply grateful for sharing my healing gifts in honor
of all Great Goddesses Who form the Divine
Cosmic Mother and the Divine Cosmic and Karmic Consciousness.
Seneca, Phaedra 54 ff (trans. Miller) (Roman tragedy C1st A.D.) :
"[The hunter Hippolytos prays to Artemis:] ‘And do thou be with thy follower, O manlike
goddess [Artemis], for whose sovereignty earth's secret places are reserved, whose darts with unerring
aim seek out the prey which drinks the cool Araxes or sports on Ister’s frozen streams. Thy hand
aims at Gaetulian lions, thine at Cretan deer; and now with lighter stroke dost thou pierce
swift-fleeing does. The striped tigers face thee, but the shaggy-backed bisons flee, and the wild ox
with wide-spreading horns. All things that feed in the lonely fields, whether the Arabian knows them in
his rich forests, or the needy Garamantian and the wandering Sarmatian on his desert plains, whatever
the heights of the rough Pyrenees or the Hyrcanian glades conceal, all fear thy bow, Diana [Artemis].
If, his offerings paid, thy worshipper takes thy favour with him to the glades, his nets hold the
tangled prey, no feet break through his snares; his game is brought in on groaning wains, his hounds
have their muzzles red with blood, and all the rustic throng come home in long triumphant line. Lo,
goddess, thou dost hear me: the shrill-tongued hounds have given the sign. I am summoned to the woods
[to hunt].’"
