MACARIA: Greek goddess of blessed death ; mythology : MAKARIA
MAKARIA (or Macaria) was the goddess of (blessed) death, a minion of her parents Haides and Persephone.
She may have been a more merciful counterpart of the death-god Thanatos; or was perhaps somehow connected with the passage of souls to the Nesoi Makarioi (Islands of the Blest).
