[Eeviee]

Artemis is the Greek Goddess associated with the Moon (the astrological association of The Priestess Card), linked to Diana of the Romans. She was known as the Goddess of the Hunt (hence the arrows), wild animals, the wilderness (her location), virginity (links to the purity of the Priestess), childbirth, women and girls (back to the Moon, and The Priestess).

Her black candle counters The Magician's white candle (for the God/Masculine/active), and represents the Goddess, the Feminine, and receptive qualities.
