Biography

ASTERIA — "And I said, let the stars guide thou path."

In Greek mythology, Asteria or Asterie is a daughter of the Titans Coeus and Phoebe and the sister of Leto. According to Hesiod, by the Titan Perses she had a single child, a daughter named Hecate, the goddess of witchcraft. Asteria is the Titan goddess of falling stars and perhaps of nighttime divinations such as oneiromancy (by dreams) and astrology (by stars).



— "The stars were deemed to have celestial significance - the Greeks adopted the Babylonian tradition of naming their planets and stars after gods with 'similar' characteristics." The Babylonians believed that the sun, moon, planets and stars were placed there by the gods. They observed that the stars travelled in a certain band, which they divided into 12 recognizable patterns or constellations, now known as the zodiac(s). They named the constellations after animals or characters they recognized. So, similarly, the Greeks have done so as well.


Etymology
The goddess' name "Asteria" (Ancient Greek Ἀστερία, translit. Astería) is derived from the Greek word ἀστήρ (astḗr) meaning "star". Ἀστήρ itself is inherited from the Proto-Indo-European root *h₂ster- (“star”), from *h₂eh₁s-, "to burn". Asteria's name shares an etymology with the names of Astraeus, Asteria's first cousin, and his daughter Astraea.
