The Evermore Grimoire: Japanese Mythology
Amaterasu Omikami (天照 meaning ‘Shines from Heaven’) was the goddess of the sun, daughter of creator deities Izanagi and Izanami (god and goddess of creation), and central to the Shinto religion in Japanese mythology. Her primary role was that of the sun goddess. In this position, she not only served as the literal rising sun that illuminates all things, but also provided nourishment to all living creatures and marked the orderly movement of day into night. Amaterasu Omikami was also the ‘Queen of Heaven,’ the kami, and creation itself. Though she did not create the universe, she was the goddess of creation, a role she inherited from her father, Izanagi, who defended the world from the land of the dead. The Japanese Imperial Dynasty claims to have descended from her, and this is what gives them the divine right to rule Japan. She is the center of Shinto, and Japanese spiritual life.

azula headcanon goddess edition!
I think that when azula dies, she will become the sun! I see a lot of people always make her the goddess of chaos and destruction and zuko the sun, but I honestly think she would be the Sun. When she dies, she turns into Agni herself and strikes up a relationship with Yue (it's up to you if it's platonic or romantic, I say romantic).

The Evermore Grimoire: Norse Mythology
Sunna (Sól meaning ‘Mistress Sun’) was the goddess of the sun in Norse mythology. She drove a chariot of the sun across the sky every day. Pulled by the horses Allsvinn (‘Very Fast’) and Arvak (‘Early Rising’), the sun-chariot was pursued by the wolf Skoll. It was said that sometimes he would come so close that he was able to take a bite out of the sun, causing an eclipse. At Ragnarok, the foretold ‘Twilight of the Gods’ or end of the world, it was believed the sun would finally be swallowed by Skoll. When the world was destroyed, a new world would be born, a world of peace and love, and the sun's bright daughter will outshine her mother.

NAKSHATRAS AS GODDESSES
1/27
🐎ASHWINI🐎
DISCLAIMER: This is based solely on my research and the patterns that I saw. I can't promise that I'm gonna be sure in all the coorelations, but I'm going to attribute each nakshatra a goddess that I think fits it the closest. If you're dissapointed, to make up for it, I'm going to list some other deities in the end that I think also fit the nakshatra. Don't come for me if you think I'm wrong, be respectful in the comments if you think so and have fun 🤍
While researching, at first it was obvious that no deity was as perfect for Ashwini as Ashwini Kumaras themselves. I still tried to search for a Goddess that would be most similar to this nakshatra's energies and I kid you not, I've found the exact goddess I was looking for. Definitely was not expecting this.
Saule
Pronounced "sow-lay"
Tumblr media
Pantheon: Lithuanian
Name meaning: The sun
Main associations: The Sun, fertility, healing, helping women and children, red apple, gold.
Symbols: The Sun, apples, colors gold and red.
The Baltic people believed the Sun to be a disc, dancing and rolling around. Saule is the literal representation of the sun, who, not unlike the Greek god Helios, rides a chariot pulled by two horses. The horses are mostly described as white and sometimes golden, and they're called, believe it or not, the Asviniai. It seems that the word has an Indo-European root.
Tumblr media
The deities assigned to Ashwini are Ashwini Kumaras_twin horsemen, depicted as young, healthy and handsome men who can heal people.
Tumblr media
Like their power, Saule is associated with healing, regeneration and also fertility. She rides in her copper-wheeled carriage with her trusted horses, flying through the sky every day, bringing light and warmth to Earth. In regards to her appearance, she's frequently depicted with long golden hair, as well as being associated with gold and amber in general. She's described as being dressed in golden silk. Being the goddess of health and vitality, she had horses that would never tire nor sweat.
At night Saule would bathe her horses and go to the underworld. She was married to the moon god Menesis. Their first child was Earth, then followed other children: the Stars. It's said that her husband was very carefree, sometimes sneaking out of their castle in his moon carriage, thus leaving the world to darkness. Despite having a husband, ultimately, Saule is a sovereign and independent goddess.
As the setting sun, Saule is known as the falling red apple, a ring or a crown. She's strongly associated with the color red, and also apples and apple trees. Other plants associated with her are daisies, sunflowers, roses and linden.
Saule is honored every year at summer solstice.
Tumblr media
I want to talk a little about why I coorelated her to Ashwini but first, I'll talk about the goddess extremely similar to her- Norse goddess Sol/ Sunna. She's also associated with the sun, healing, regeneration and has a chariot pulled by two horses, one of which is called Allsvinn (very fast), the other is called Arvak (early rising). Also, one of her many names literally means "Gold".
I think the association of these goddesses with Ashwini kumaras is clear, but I chose the Baltic goddess saule as to me the Baltic culture is more similar to Ashwini's energies than the Norse (You'll definitely see Norse goddesses in this series tho). Baltic people also have gods which are basically their equivalent of Ashwini Kumaras, twin horsemen gods called Ašvieniai. It's crazy to me that two cultures that you wouldn't think have anything in common basically share a deity.
Other deities that can be associated with Ashwini other than Saule:
Sunna- Norse goddess of the Sun, healing and fertility.
Ašvieniai- Baltic twin horsemen gods who have a gift of healing
Rhiannon- Celtic goddess known as "The Horse Queen", goddess of movement, leadership, the night, the moon and death.
Epona- Celtic goddess most strongly linked to horses (and you can tell by her name)
That's it for Ashwini🤍❤ I love my horse- people😅🤍 I genuinely do, there's no one like you guys, you are very healing and refreshing to be around. Keep going 🐎🐎
Don't forget to comment if u liked this or you can interact in any way .

So-called "Ivory of Shapash" (North-Semitic Sun Goddess) Origin: Syro-Phoenician, ca. 8th century BCE Found in palace of Ashurnasirpal II Nimrud, Iraq (Assyria) (Met Museum 59.107.7, Pub Domain, Enhanced) Built by the Assyrian king Ashurnasirpal II, the palaces and storerooms of Nimrud housed thousands of pieces of carved ivory. Most of the ivories served as furniture inlays or small precious objects such as boxes. While some of them were carved in the same style as the large Assyrian reliefs lining the walls of the Northwest Palace, the majority of the ivories display images and styles related to the arts of North Syria and the Phoenician city-states. Phoenician style ivories are distinguished by their use of imagery related to Egyptian art, such as sphinxes and figures wearing pharaonic crowns, and the use of elaborate carving techniques such as openwork and colored glass inlay. North Syrian style ivories tend to depict stockier figures in more dynamic compositions, carved as solid plaques with fewer added decorative elements. However, some pieces do not fit easily into any of these three styles. Source: The Met Museum
