\nHygiea,\nthe daughter of Epione, the Goddess of the Soothing of Pain, and\nAslepius, God of Medicine, is the Greek Goddess of Health and\nHealing. Hers is a healing family, as Her sisters are Panakeia, the\nGoddess Who Cures All and Iaso, the Goddess of Remedies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\nCalled\nSalus in Rome, She is also the healer of both physical and mental\ndisease. She is sometimes called the Protectress of Mental Health. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n Her\nsymbol is a cup, or chalice, surrounded by a snake, as She is most\ncommonly shown with a snake wrapped around Her body, holding a bowl\nfor libations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\nThe\ncult of Hygiea started in the 600’s BCE and spread during the plague\nof the 400’s BCE. A statue of Her stood at the entrance of the\nAcropolis, along with Athene.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\nHygiea\nwas very holistic in Her approach to good health, professing the\nbenefits of eating well, getting enough exercise and the concept of\ndisease prevention from cleanliness and hygiene, from whose name\ncomes the words and its’ variations. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\nWe\nwould do well to follow Her advice in the present day, as well. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
