CALLISTO

The nymph Callisto was a favorite companion of the virgin goddess Diana. Callisto had vowed to remain chaste, and to follow in the ways of Diana. She accompanied Diana while hunting and was her constant companion. Jupiter caught a glimpse of the beautiful Callisto and, of course, fell in love with her. Knowing that Diana had warned Callisto of the deceitful ways of men and gods, Jupiter cleverly disguised himself as Diana ("Jupiter in the Guise of Diana and the Nymph Callisto", a painting by the 18th century artist Francois Boucher, illustrates this scene). He then seduced Callisto, and Callisto conceived a child.

When Callisto's condition was revealed to Diana by jealous competitors for Diana's attentions, Callisto was forced out of the company of Diana. She bore a boy child named Arcas. When Jupiter's wife Juno saw this evidence of Jupiter's infidelity she became enraged, and changed Callisto into a bear. Callisto was ashamed and afraid, and fled into the woods, not to see her son for many years.

One day, when Callisto's son Arcas was a young man, he decided to go hunting, and went into the woods where his mother Callisto lived. Callisto saw her son, whom she had not seen for many years. She forgot she was a bear, and rushed forward to embrace her son. Arcas only saw a bear rushing down on him. He lifted his bow and shot an arrow at the beast. At the last moment Jupiter intervened and placed Callisto and her son in the heavens as the constellations Ursa Major and Ursa Minor, the big and little bears. Parts of these constellations are also known as the Big Dipper and the Little Dipper.
