Nemesis’s Counterpart is Invidia in Roman Mythology

In all the various Empires and Religions of the ancient world, each deity had a counterpart. The Roman equivalent of the Greek Goddess Nemesis was Invidia.


Invidia was considered a witch since she was linked to enmity and wickedness. She was followed in her witchcraft by the Roman women. They took her lead and studied witchcraft practices. Invidia was intimately associated with situations in which justice was violated, unjust wealth was on display, and power was exploited dishonestly, all of which were upsetting. She was characterized as having thin, pale skin, and teeth that were stained. Invidia was elevated to one of the Seven Deadly Sins in the Christian religion.


The virgin goddess of divine vengeance and punishment is called Nemesis/Invidia. One of Zeus's helpers, Nemesis, measures happiness and unhappiness. If she finds that bliss is too frequent or excessive, she causes loss and suffering to restore balance. When mortals violate laws and taboos, she bestows divine wrath onto them. She taught us that good things come in pairs with bad things, so even when things appear hopeless, good things are always on the horizon.

In a similar vein, Lord Shani was the Hindu equivalent of Nemesis. He was a good-natured god who was revered by all Hindus.
