Nephele

The meaning of Nephele is 'cloudy' and it is a girl's name. Nephele is a beautiful ancient Greek name for the Greek goddess who was made from a cloud by Zeus and, as a result, has become the mother of centaurs and goddess of the clouds. Although Nephele is not a famous name, as modern parents grow accustomed to Penelope, Phoebe, and Persephone, it may return as one of the names of ancient Greek goddesses. Nephele and Athamas had twins, Helle and Phrixus, a son and a daughter. After Athamas separated from Nephele, Ino devised a cunning plan to get away from the twins by roasting the town's grain seeds, preventing them from sprouting. There are many celebrities with the name Nephele such as Nephele Jackson. Nephele Jackson is a well-known actress and composer recognized for her work in 2015 'Luma', 2012 'Tiger Eyes,' and 2017 'Stargazer'. There is also a species of the hawkmoth, Nephele hesperia. Nephele hesperia was first described in 1755 by Johan Christian Fabricius.

Lucky

Nephele lucky number is 2.

Within numerology, the 2 vibration assumes the role of the mediator, creating harmony by bringing together dissonant forces through compassion, empathy, and kindness. 2 is linked to psychic abilities and intuition, and if this number appears as a Life Path or Destiny Number, the individual will be astute to subtle energy shifts and emotional nuances. Because 2 is so sensitive, it is very conflict-averse, and can end up feeling under-appreciated or unacknowledged. 2 must avoid seeking external validation and, instead, realize that perfect equilibrium needed already exists within.
