Eunomia (Order) Greek A goddess of order and lawful conduct and one of the three Horae, guardians of the seasons, with her sisters Dike (Justice) and Eirene (Peace). She was the daughter of Zeus and Themis. Eunomia involved herself in the law-making process, helping mankind establish wise laws that allowed societies to prosper. Cities would lay claim to her, bragging that she chose to dwell within their walls. Eunomia had specific duties over springtime and the greening of nature.
