Tonight, at sundown, we honor the goddess of War, domestic arts, and daughter of Zeus. Athena came fully formed out of her father's head and is very different from Ares. She is famous for turning Arachne into a spider and turning Medusa into a gorgon. Her most important temple was in Athens and it was turned into a church when Greece adopted Christianity. Even though her temple is in ruins it's being restored, thank the gods.
If you want to visit Athena's temple you can go to the one in Nashville which was modeled after the one in Athens. Athena is good to pray to, and petition, if your studying for a test, want to remember what you've learned, or starting a project.
