Thalia

Festivitiy (thalia)

THALIA was one of the three Kharites (Charites) and the goddess of festivity and banquets. She was usually depicted dancing in a circle with her two sisters.


Her name was derived from the Greek adjective thalia which, when applied to banquets, means rich, plentiful and luxuriant. She was probably the same as Pandaisia (Banquet), a Kharis companion of Aphrodite in Athenian vase painting. Thalia's name also means "the blooming"--in the sense of springtime greenery and blossoms (cf. the Hora Thallo).
