Most people call them the Graces, Charities, or Gratiae, but everyone knows they're the goddesses of adornment and festivity, and Co-Rulers of Virgo (possibly; attention to detail?) and Libra (as social graces and adornment?)
Charis (singular) is where we get Charity
Gratia (Latin singular) is where we get Grace

47 Aglaia (Splendor): The youngest sister and wife of Hephaestus (2212 if anyone wants to use them in synastry)
Where you're most magnificent?

31 Euphrosyne (Mirth): The middle sister
Where you hold joy?

23 Thalia (Good Cheer): The oldest sister; shares her name with the Mousa of comedy (it is good cheer I suppose~)
How you cheer people up?

They usually are the attendants of Aphrodite or Hera.

With Hephaestus, I think Aglaia would represent any second marriages or divorce; after he divorced Aphrodite, Hephaestus married Aglaia.

What do you all think?

Thank you, LeeLoo
In my own Chart, I have Charis conjunct Euphrosyne and Eros(433) (Virgo 5H) opposed to Thalia in Pisces 11H.
Aglaia and Lilith (Leo 4H) are in a grand trine with Hades and Demetra(1), and then Kronos and Hera(3).

Hm... refined desire and a joyful romance?
A lovely home? Transforming beauty? Maybe I'll have a beautiful marriage, and an abundance in spiritual friends? That's what I'm thinking.
