Facing the Illusion: Unveiling the Truth of Existence
You are Admired & Respected
“Good things come to those who hustle while they wait.” - Anonymous.
“You fail to comprehend or acknowledge the truth of your existence you have derived a delusion of this which has become encased and entrenched with yourself and society, the outcome from myself Asteria is justice from this action of yourself and your eventual denial of this fact and the outcome of this within yourself and your civilisation” – Asteria ‘Nocturnal Oracles and Falling Stars’. 
The words of Asteria bring forth a contemplative mood. The concept of comprehending one's own existence and acknowledging the truth within oneself is indeed a complex and deeply philosophical endeavor. It is a path paved with introspection and self-discovery, as we navigate the layers of our being.
Asteria's reference to a delusion encased within ourselves and society opens up a realm of thought-provoking questions. Are there aspects of our existence that we fail to understand or perhaps choose to deny? And if so, what are the implications of such denial?
In the pursuit of justice, Asteria seems to imply that her actions will serve as a consequence for our failure to acknowledge this truth. But what form will this justice take? Will it be a force of change, a catalyst for introspection, or something else entirely? Only time will reveal the answers.
As we reflect on these enigmatic words, let us consider our own journey of self-discovery and the role that truth and acknowledgment play in shaping our individual paths. May we find solace in the pursuit of knowledge and understanding, as we navigate the intricacies of our existence and the impact it has on our civilization.

The Mythological Figure Asteria: A Titan Goddess of Night and Refuge
In Greek mythology, Asteria holds a significant place as the daughter of the Titans Coeus and Phoebe, and as the sister of Leto. Known for her dual roles as the goddess of nocturnal oracles and falling stars, Asteria's story is one of both bravery and transformation.
According to Hesiod, Asteria bore a daughter named Hecate with Perses. However, it is her own escape from Zeus's advances that truly sets her apart. Faced with the relentless pursuit of the king of gods, Asteria took on the form of a quail and flung herself into the depths of the Aegean Sea. This act of self-transformation gave rise to the legendary "quail island" of Ortygia.
Ortygia, initially just a small piece of land surrounded by the Aegean Sea, would eventually become associated with the island of Delos. It was on this sacred land that Leto, pregnant with Zeus's twins – Apollo and Artemis, sought refuge from the wrath of Hera. The island of Delos, under the protection of Asteria, provided sanctuary for Leto during her time of need.
The tale of Asteria showcases her resilience and sacrifice, as she chose to surrender her physical form rather than succumb to Zeus's advances. Furthermore, her association with oracles and falling stars emphasizes her connection to the night sky and the mysterious forces that govern it.
In Greek mythology, Asteria's legend serves as a reminder of the power of transformation and the significance of finding refuge during challenging times. Through her courage and protectiveness, she embodies the essence of a goddess who defied divine authority for the sake of her own autonomy and to offer solace to others in need.
Although her presence may not be as prominent as some of the well-known deities of Greek mythology, Asteria's story provides a glimpse into the rich tapestry of ancient Greek folklore. Her role as a goddess of night and refuge adds depth to the intricate web of divine narratives, reminding us of the enduring power and significance of mythological figures like Asteria.
