There are many moon goddesses. Selene, Artemis, Hecate from the Greek. Luna, Diana from the Romans. Chandra from the Hindu. Chinese Heng-O.  Coyolxauhqui of the

Aztecs. The Celtic Cerridwen.  The Moon Goddess is one of the oldest deity's on Earth and has been worshipped in one form or another for at least 10,000 years.

Answer 6

I think you already got some good answers about

the moon goddess. I just wanted to add that I also

really love to study the history of ancient religion in the

Mediterranearn area... I recommend when you study

about it, you keep historical facts seperate from the

mythology.

While mythology is very colorful, it is only fiction...

on the other hand understanding the real lives of the

ancient people and the ways they worshipped is

also very interesting, in a somewhat different way.

Best wishes,
