About

In ancient Greek religion and mythology, Astraea, also spelled Astrea or Astria, is a daughter of Astraeus and Eos. She is the virgin goddess of justice, and is closely associated with another Greek justice goddess, Dike, the daughter of Zeus and Themis. Astraea is not to be confused with Asteria, the goddess of the stars and the daughter of Coeus and Phoebe.
