She is guardian of springs and streams, and protector of wild animals, also known as goddess of fertility, it is believed she grants safe & easy childbirth, to all who recognize her. She was eventually equated with the Greek goddess Artemis, though she had an independent origin in Italy. Diana was worshipped in ancient Roman religion and is revered in Roman Neopaganism and Stregheria. Diana was known to be the virgin goddess of childbirth and women. She was one of the three maiden goddesses, along with Minerva and Vesta, who swore never to marry.
