For thousands of years, people have looked up at the moon and wondered about its divine significance. It should come as no surprise that many cultures throughout time have had lunar deities–that is, gods or goddesses associated with the power and energy of the moon. If you're doing a moon-related ritual, in some traditions of Wicca and Paganism you may choose to call upon one of these deities for assistance. Let's look at some of the better known lunar deities.

In the legends of the Inuit peoples, Alignak is the god of both the moon and weather. He controls the tides, and presides over both earthquakes and eclipses. In some stories, he is also responsible for returning the souls of the dead to earth so that they may be reborn. Alignak may appear in harbors to protect fishermen from Sedna, the wrathful sea goddess.
According to legend, Alignak and his sister became deities after they committed incest and were banished from the earth. Alignak was sent off to become the god of the moon, and his sister became a goddess of the sun.

Artemis is the Greek goddess of the hunt. Because her twin brother, Apollo, was associated with the Sun, Artemis gradually became connected to the moon in the post-Classical world.

Typically, in post-Classical artwork, she is depicted beside a crescent moon.

Cerridwen is, in Celtic mythology, the keeper of the cauldron of knowledge. She is the giver of wisdom and inspiration, and as such is often associated with the moon and the intuitive process. As a goddess of the Underworld, Cerridwen is often symbolized by a white sow, which represents both her fecundity and fertility and her strength as a mother. She is both Mother and Crone; many modern Pagans honor Cerridwen for her close association to the full moon.

In Chinese mythology, Chang'e was married to the king Hou Yi. Although he was once known as a great archer, later Hou Yi became a tyrannical king, who spread death and destruction wherever he went. The people starved and were brutally treated. Hou Yi greatly feared death, so a healer gave him a special elixir that would allow him to live forever. Chang'e knew that for Hou Yi to live forever would be a terrible thing, so one night while he slept, Chang'e stole the potion. When he saw her and demanded she return the potion, she immediately drank the elixir and flew up into the sky as the moon,

In Aztec stories, Coyolxauhqui was the sister of the god Huitzilopochtli. She died when her brother leaped from their mother's womb and killed all of his siblings. Huitzilopochtli cut off Coyolxauhqui's head and threw it up into the sky, where it remains today as the moon.

Much like the Greek Artemis, Diana began as a goddess of the hunt who later evolved into a lunar goddess. In Charles Leland's Aradia, Gospel of the Witches, he pays homage to Diana Lucifera (Diana of the light) in her aspect as a light-bearing goddess of the moon.

A daughter of Jupiter, Diana’s twin brother was Apollo. There is significant overlap between the Greek Artemis and the Roman Diana, although in Italy itself, Diana evolved into a separate and distinct persona.

Hecate was originally venerated as a mother goddess, but during the Ptolemaic period in Alexandria was elevated to her position as goddess of ghosts and the spirit world. Many contemporary Pagans and Wiccans honor Hecate in her guise as a Dark Goddess, although it would be incorrect to refer to her as an aspect of the Crone, because of her connection to both childbirth and maidenhood. It's more likely that her role as "dark goddess" comes from her connection to the spirit world, ghosts, the dark moon, and magic.

Tasks:
1. Read a book where a character can talk/see ghosts
2. Read a book where the MC is pychic
3. Read a book of MPG Magic
4. Read a book tagged Horror
5. Read a book where a character is a practicing Wiccan






Selene was the sister of Helios, the Greek sun god. Tribute was paid to her on the days of the full moon. Like many Greek goddesses, she had a number of different aspects. At one point she was worshiped as Phoebe, the huntress, and later was identified with Artemis. She was depicted as a woman riding sidesaddle on a horse or driving a chariot drawn by a pair of winged steeds.

Sina is one of the best-known Polynesian deities. She resides within the moon itself, and is the protector of those who might travel at night. Originally, she lived on earth, but got tired of the way her husband and family treated her. So, she packed up her belongings and left to go live in the moon, according to Hawaiian legend.
Polynesian mythology encompasses the oral traditions of the people of Polynesia (a grouping of Central and South Pacific Ocean island archipelagos in the Polynesian Triangle) together with those of the scattered cultures known as the Polynesian outliers.

May I just say that this challenge has proven to be much more...er...challenging than it initially looked to be?

Right?! I'm down to the very niche list books!

Exactly! Cauldron is killing me - and determining if a character is actually Wiccan (as opposed, say, to simply being s 'witch) is proving tricky!

Right!? If you find some, let me know!! I think I might do more "comfort" reads this month (which for me is PNR), because I feel a bit of a reading slump coming on...

They need some help over here. Does anyone want to take a guess?

I'm finished! And I'll say again, parts of this were much more challenging than they seemed at first.

Thanks, Namita - this has been fun!

I'm so close! I don't think I'll manage all of them!

No worries. Some of them can be challenging tasks.

Most welcome. Glad you had fun!!

You are so close! You can do it, Ashley! You've knocked out some of the really hard ones already.

Namita, this was a great challenge.

This was a fun challenge. I have a couple to update and maybe a couple more to read and realized that mythology is not for me and can go hide in the space bucket but I liked the variety of the tasks.

I think it'll just come down to TIME! haha
If only I could sit all week and read with no interruptions! Alas, I have to work.. and take care of children! Bah!

6 more books... 2 more days.... ACK. I'm not going to make it lol

Perhaps six 100 page books? Of course, the trick would be finding them....

I think I'm going to manage 2 more books this month, I'm not sure either will work for this challenge. And my son has a wrestling tournament tomorrow, so that'll there a weekend in any other books lol

Oh well - the fun is really in participating, not necessarily completing. Have fun at the tournament!

This was a fun challenge... I couldn't complete all the tasks but it was great learning so many interesting facts as well as discovering new lists and books.

Agreed! Great Challenge!
