Magical Buffet Mythology: Artemis
Artemis is known as the goddess of the hunt, the wild, the moon, and childbirth. The later originating from the fact that Artemis assisted her mother Leto in the birthing of her brother Apollo, which took place immediately following Artemis’ own birth. Most women aren’t able to do much of anything following their own birth aside from wriggling, squirming, and crying, let alone assist their mother in the birth of their twin! But it is the wild that Artemis is generally associated with. She is known as a wild woman and gifted hunter. Also, like the teen pop stars of our era, she gets a lot of press over her virginity. Unlike our pop music teeney boppers Artemis kept her virginity! (Oh yeah, I went there!)
