The Greek word thalia is an adjective applied to banquets, meaning rich, plentiful, luxuriant and abundant. Thalia is a part of the Nine Muses in Greek mythology. The Muses are the foundation of inspiration, arts and wisdom. They are the daughters of Zeus and Mnemosine who are the amorous counterparts of Apollo's posse of gods. The Muses began their lives as nymphs, an extensive class of female divinities. The nymphs then presented themselves as whispers in the ears of those that called upon them.
