Astraea

Astraea, in Greek Mythology, was the daughter of Zeus and Themis. She was the goddess of justice, both in Greek and Roman mythology. She dwelt among men during the Golden Age, but left the earth on its decline, and her sister Pudicitia along with her. The withdrawal explained to mean the vanishing of the ideal from the life of man on the earth. She is now placed among the stars under the name of Virgo.
