Φοιβη | Phoibê | Phoebe | Bright, Prophetic |
PHOIBE (Phoebe) was the Titan goddess of the bright intellect. She was wife of the Titan Koios (Coeus) "the Inquiring" and the grandmother of Apollon, Artemis and Hekate. Phoibe was the third goddess to hold the great oracle of Delphoi (Delphi) which she in turn bestowed upon her grandson Apollon. Her name was derived from the Greek words phoibos "bright" or "radiant", phoibazô "to prophesy" and phoibaô "to purify."
