Luna, Roman Moon Goddess, Tarot Card

Tarot card image of Luna (the moon) from the Mantegna deck. The images shows the moon goddess driving her chariot across the skies, holding the crescent of the moon in her hand. In ancient Roman religion and myth, Luna is the divine embodiment of the Moon (Latin luna; cf. English "lunar"). She is often presented as the female complement of the Sun (Sol) conceived of as a god. Luna is also sometimes represented as an aspect of the Roman triple goddess (diva triformis ), along with Proserpina and Hecate. Luna is not always a distinct goddess, but sometimes rather an epithet that specializes a goddess, since both Diana and Juno are identified as moon goddesses. In Roman art, Luna's attributes are the crescent moon plus the two-yoke chariot (biga ). Luna's Greek counterpart was Selene. In Roman art and literature, myths of Selene are adapted under the name of Luna.
