Who is the patron saint of Aquarius?

Minerva, the god of freedom.

brief introduction

The Greek name is Athena, one of the three virgins. According to legend, she was born in the skull of Jupiter and has extraordinary strength and wisdom since birth. Her natural divine power is even afraid of Jupiter, so she is the only god in the new generation who is not ruled by Jupiter. With war spear in his hand and leaning against the mighty image of Jupiter shield, Mi Marcus Cocceius nerva has always been regarded as a symbol of freedom and independence by the Athenian people.

The story of Minerva.

Minerva and Athens

At the beginning of the Greek city-state, Poseidon and Minerva, the goddess of wisdom, competed to become the protector of Attica. Jupiter announced that the two gods can compete with each other to see who can bring prosperity to the city and who will become the patron saint of the city. At the beginning of the game, Poseidon rapped on the surface of the fountain with his huge three-pronged fork and jumped out of it a strong white horse. Poseidon proudly declared that this is what this new city needs, and it can help the king make great achievements. Minerva's turn. She threw a spear with a smile, and an olive tree with sacred golden light immediately grew where the spear fell. Its fruit is sweet, and the squeezed olive oil can be used for seasoning and lighting. With it, people will live a happier life. The gods judged that the olive tree was a symbol of peace, much more useful than a war horse. In this way, Minerva won. Since then, the city has been named Athens, with olive trees all over Athens.

Shelley's translation of Ode to Athena (the goddess of Athens has the title of patron saint and is called "the patron saint of towns") writes in the first few lines:

I sing your great glory with my sincere heart.

Athena! You are the embodiment of freedom, chastity and wisdom!

You are the patron saint of our city-state and home.

You saved our home from evil!

Jupiter, the god of the universe, brought you to us,

You are so powerful that you will always be respected!

You are armed, shining and radiant!

Minerva and Spider

Minerva, the Statue of Liberty, is also the god of art, craft and women's handiwork, with dexterous hands and superb craftsmanship. A Lydia girl named Aleckney looked down upon Minerva's skills very much and often boasted that her skills were far better than hers. So the goddess dressed as an old woman advised Aleckney to be modest. But the ignorant Aleckney still slandered the reputation of the goddess. So the angry Minerva took off his disguise and accepted the challenge, and the two immediately set out to create their own works. The pattern designed by the goddess tells the story of her struggle with Poseidon, while Alekney weaves a fine net. After that, Aleckney was surprised to find that he lost, because the goddess' work was much better. She was so ashamed that she hanged herself with silk thread. Before she died, the goddess turned her into a spider and let her knit forever. This story tells people that freedom is in their own hands, but don't tie yourself down.

Minerva's treasure

Ekeus shield

(aegis)

Legend has it that the shield of Ekeus was originally owned by Jupiter, and later the generous God gave it to Minerva. The Elquis shield was built by Vulcan himself, so it is so powerful that even thunder can't help it. The edge of the shield is wrapped in goatskin, and the head of Medusa is engraved on the front, so that the person holding this shield can go upstream and make all enemies feel frightened.

Athena war spear

Like Aegis, which symbolizes the strongest defense, war spear of Athena was created by craftsman Vulcan. Athena holding war spear represents invincible strength and determination to get rid of all bondage and win freedom and victory.

Minerva is in the west.

Marcus Cocceius nerva, the god of freedom, was born on Jupiter's head. Because of his extraordinary wisdom and superhuman strength, he became the most powerful among the young gods and the only one beyond Jupiter's jurisdiction. In the west, Mi Marcus Cocceius nerva is a dual symbol of courage and strategy, and at the same time, she also represents absolute freedom. People believe that by worshipping Marcus Cocceius nerva, the god of freedom, they can obtain transcendental peace and achieve transcendental state of mind by leaving the world.
