Clymene moth (The Blessing Moth) is an Erebidae moth indigenous to the eastern parts of North America. English naturalist Peter Brown first described this species in 1776.

When opened, the wings appear creamy-yellow, partially bordered in a dark brown line extending inward from the margin lying close to the anal angle. When closed, the color and pattern remain unchanged, with the brownish-black markings forming a cross.

The larvae are brownish-black, with a yellow stripe on the mid-dorsal region. Their bodies are covered with spines.

The Clymene moth is said to have immense spiritual symbolism. The name Clymene holds great significance in Greek mythology, as it was the name of many people like a Cretan princess, a water nymph, an Orchomenian princess, and so on. Moreover, the wings form a pattern similar to the Holy Cross, especially when closed. Thus, seeing these moths is considered a good omen and a blessing indeed.
