Black cats have long been associated with witchcraft and have a prominent place in the folklore and mythology of Britain.

Associated with goddess Diana and many goddesses associated with the Moon, including a few gods who ruled the Sun, all cats became symbolic of fertility and women.

Goddesses from other cultures could be easily identified with the Virgin Diana. Her priestesses wore robes of black, representing the color of the earth, womb, and the night sky.
