Tomoe Hotaru/Sailor
Saturn
Hotaru, simply means "firefly".
The first chracter to means "soil" or "the ground", and moe
means to "bud" or "spring up". In all, her name means, "a
firefly sprouting up from the soil". Saturn's Greek
counterpart, Cronus, was the ancient Titan who ruled over
time. Sailor Saturn, who only attacks are death-based, should
have had her powers switched with Pluto's to have them fit in
with the others. Capricorns are ideally secretive and shy,
though they have been known to illustrate great courage when
provoked. It fits well with Hotaru's person because while she
is physically the weakest of the ten senshi, her Sailor-power
is the most destructive.
(Roman Saturn; Greek Titan Cronus)
they are the god of agriculture and harvest, which associates
Sailorsaturn�s power the creation. Like Pluto, the god Saturn
is not very popular, also Sailorsaturn has a poor appearance
in TV. She also has the power of decay, it tells what happened
to Uranus, he�s the one who castrated him and established the
Titans. However, he�s also castrated him by Zeus (Jupiter in
Roman.) He is the son of Uranus and Gaia and the father of
Zeus, Hades, Poseidon and Hera (Jupiter, Pluto, Neptune and
Juno in Roman.) Cronus also attributes the sickle. He uses
this to castrate his father and also the agriculture.
Sailorsaturn's glaive is like the sickle�symbols of creation
and decay.
His consort was either Lua or Ops.
He was the father of Jupiter. His temple was constructed in
the Roman Forum as early as the fifth century BC. It served as
the Roman treasury (aerarium). His festival was the
Saturnalia, observed on December 17 but later extended to
seven days. It was the most popular Roman festival,
characterized by a suspension of all business, a reversal of
the roles of master and slave, the exchange of gifts
