![]() WARNING: The following contains spoilers for Season 2, Episode 6, of A Discovery of Witches, streaming now on Sundance Now, Shudder and AMC+. New episodes are available to stream every Saturday on Sundance Now, Shudder and AMC+. Published A Discovery of Witches' most recent episode hints at Philippe's incredibly long life and explains the mythical origin of Diana's name. In this roundabout way, the choice of the name Diana for A Discovery of Witches' main character - and Philippe’s choice to bring her to a temple for the goddess Artemis - all have some degree of symbolism that points to Diana’s powerful abilities as a witch.Ī Discovery of Witches Season 2 stars Teresa Palmer, Matthew Goode, Alex Kingston, Valarie Pettiford, Lindsay Duncan, Edward Bluemel, Aiysha Hart, Daniel Ezra, Aisling Loftus, Trevor Eve, Owen Teale, Malin Buska, Gregg Chillin, Tom Hughes, James Purefoy, Steven Cree and Adelle Leonce. It’s interesting to note that another Greek goddess, Hecate, was often associated with Artemis, and Hecate later became a goddess of witchcraft. And when the stag walks away, Philippe indicates Artemis has accepted his prayer and will extend her protection to Diana. This is a testament to Philippe’s longevity and his sheer power. What’s more, when he completes the prayer, he seems to somehow commune with the goddess in a way that enables him to summon a white stag. ![]() Philippe’s familiarity with this ritual suggests that he can trace his roots all the way back to ancient Greece.
