  • 39: The Goddess Who Left the World Behind: Astraea’s Story
    May 18 2025
    This week is all about the Greek Goddess, Astraea. Astraea is a Greek goddess associated with justice, innocence, purity, and the stars. Her name means "star-maiden" or "starry night." She is often considered a daughter of Zeus and Themis, though some myths link her to Eos (dawn) and Astraeus (the dusk god), connecting her more symbolically to the celestial.

    Key Aspects of Astraea:

    • Personification of Justice: Astraea represents the idea of divine justice (similar to her mother Themis or Roman equivalent Justitia). She is typically depicted holding scales, symbolizing impartial judgment.

    • Golden Age Figure: According to mythology, Astraea lived among humans during the Golden Age, a time of peace and harmony. As humanity grew more corrupt during the Iron Age, she was the last immortal to leave Earth, ascending to the sky.

    • Becomes the Constellation Virgo: After leaving Earth, Astraea was placed among the stars as the constellation Virgo. The scales she held became the nearby constellation Libra, symbolizing justice.

    Symbolism:

    • Hope and Return: In later myths and Renaissance thought, Astraea came to symbolize hope for a return to a golden age of justice and virtue.

    • Popular in Literature and Art: She appears in works by Ovid, Hesiod, and later Renaissance poets like Edmund Spenser and John Milton, often as a symbol of lost virtue or ideal governance.
