Which Goddess Are You?!? *with never before seen pics and goddesses*

brought to you by Quizilla

You are The Lady of the Lake! As in many traditions in which a goddess bestows kingship, The Lady of the Lake, a mysterious Celtic goddess, gave King Arthur the sword Excalibur and thus established his power and his right to be king. Before he died, Arthur restored the sword to her, and it now remains with her beneath the waters of the deep. Water, the source of all life, has long been the domain of the goddess. Lakes represent both the source of creative power and the land of the dead, life-giving and death or renewal being the two main functions of the goddess. Water indicates both consciousness and revelation. She is a guide to the mysterious realms of emotion and renewal, a source of immense creativivty. She can give us the energy we need to rule our lives.

I LOVE King Arthur stuff! I have a ton of books on the subject, including some antique ones. I've always been fascinated with the story/legend, ever since I was a kid. One of my favorite movies is Excalibur.

I've been trying to add an Excalibur sword to my collection for years, but all the ones I see are cheesy and inaccurate. I think what I'll end up doing is finding a nice plain sword, and getting it engraved like the stories describe.

(that pic needs to be rotated counter-clockwise BTW)

I like that ledgend a lot too. Don't have to much stuff on it though.. two movies 'Mists of Avalon' and 'Arthur'.
Saw the 'Excalibur' movie about a year ago, wasn't a bit fan of that vrs to be honest.

I know about the pic, but that's how it was in the quiz.

Ooooooooooooooo....

You are Isis and Osiris! In ancient Egypt Isis was

among the oldest of the goddesses, the mother

and giver of all life. A moon goddess, she

gives birth to the sun, creates and sustains

all life, and is the savior of all people.

The teacher of agriculture, she is also the

goddess of medicine and wisdom. Osiris was

her brother and husband. When Osiris was

murdered by his brother Set, Isis searched

for and found him, revived him, and conceived

their son, Horus. When Set again took Osiris

and scattered his body in fourteen peices,

Isis hunted down each peice, except for his

reproductive organs, which she was unable to

locate, in order to give each piece a proper

burial. Isis is the universal goddess,

representing total femininity. She can

overcome death itself, yet she is not above

grief:one of her tears, wept when Osiris was

dying, caused the Nile River to flood. She

underscores the depths of emotion that even a

goddess must feel.
