Phoebe

Phoebe

Phoebe is the Weird Sister of Grace.

Characteristics

She can be distinguished from the others by her blond hair. She is supposedly more gentle and kindly than Luna and Seline (although she was just as eager for the destruction of the Avalon Clan as were the other two).

When Phoebe is ascendant, the Sisters are the Graces. [1]

Real World Background

Phoebe's name comes from Greek mythology, where she was a Titaness, the mother of Leto and Asteria and the grandmother of Apollo, Artemis and Hecate. Her name means "the shining one." Later on, particularly in Elizabethan poetry, she came to be associated with the Moon. Indeed, the character Lysander refers to the Moon as Phoebe in Act I, scene i of A Midsummer Night's Dream. (Coincidentally, William Shakespeare uses the name Phoebe in another play of his, As You Like It. )
