Philophrosyne /fɪləˈfrɒzɪniː/ was the ancient Greek feminine personification of goodness, friendship, and reception. Her sisters were Eucleia, Eupheme, and Euthenia. Along with her sisters, she was regarded as a member of the younger Charites.[1] According to the Orphic fragments, Philophrosyne was the daughter of Hephaestus and Aglaia.[2] Some authors divide to Philophrosyne into two separate goddesses called Euphilo ("Goodness") and Euphrosyne ("Friendship"), in this minority version both goddesses are daughters of Hephaestus and Aglaia.
