In Greek mythology, Artemis emerges as a formidable and revered figure, embodying the untamed spirit of the wilderness. Known as the Huntress, she strides through ancient tales with her silver bow in hand and a quiver of arrows on her back, symbolizing the balance between strength and grace. Artemis is considered a guardian of the environment, and those who respect wildlife are believed to be under her protection.
The forests, in Artemis's realm, were not just landscapes but sacred havens where the delicate balance of nature thrived under her guardianship. Stories depict her as a relentless and skilled archer, fearlessly navigating the dense forests in pursuit of prey. Despite being a skilled hunter, Artemis only hunted for sustenance and preached the importance of balance in the natural world. As the protector of wildlife, she cherished the creatures of the wilderness and maintained a sacred connection with the untamed landscapes.
 
For Virgo season, we couldn't possibly overlook this iconic  maiden goddess. Chastity was one of Artemis’ most well-known attributes and as a virgin huntress, she was the protector of young girls and women. As a symbol of feminine strength and wisdom, Artemis encourages women to embrace their autonomy and assertiveness, foster sisterhood, and help empower other women on their path.
 
As the Goddess of the Moon, Artemis's association with the moon is an integral part of her divine essence. Often depicted with a crescent moon adorning her forehead, she embodies the moon's phases – waxing, full, and waning. This celestial dance symbolizes her ever-changing influence over the natural world and the tides of life. 
Our Huntress bars evoke glittering amethyst vibes with a striking purple-hued palette accented with silvery sparkles.  Naturally, this wilderness goddess deserves a woodsy aromatic adventure! Black spruce, balsam fir, and woody vetiver embrace Artemis' untamed spirit, while a heart of ripe wild berries and spicy sweet anise offer an enchanting harmony.  Intoxicating and invigorating!
