In Greek mythology, the goddess of the moon is Selene, often represented as a beautiful woman driving a chariot across the night sky. Selene embodies the lunar cycles, symbolizing the changing phases of life, and is associated with night, mystery, and supernatural influences. She is sometimes conflated with the goddesses Artemis and Hecate, each of whom embodies different aspects of the moon’s influence. Selene’s stories reflect the importance of the moon in guiding human behavior and connecting to the rhythms of nature.
