The moon Goddess has been known in many times and cultures. She is usually the protector of women, and rules magick and childbirth. It is said that the moon-Goddess created time and its measurement, and ancient calendars were based on the moon's phases and menstrual cycles. To many, she is the Triple Goddess. The waxing, Full and waning phases represent the three aspects of womanhood: Maiden, Mother and Crone. The Greek Triad of Arteons, Selen and Hecate is an example. (Excerpt taken from poster)
