Mayari is the one-eyed Goddess of the Moon. She embodies beauty and strength and is the patron deity of combat, war, and revolution. She is the eldest daughter of Bathala and is known as the most beautiful goddess in the heavenly court. When Bathala fell into a deep slumber, Mayari fought her brother, Apolaki (the God of the Sun), for dominion over the Earth. Their fierce battle ended when Mayari lost one eye. Thus, the sibling war gods formed a truce, with Apolaki ruling the day, and Mayari ruling the night.
