In Greek mythology, the Muses are a sisterhood of goddesses or spirits, their number set at nine by Classical times, who embody the arts and inspire the creation process with their graces through remembered and improvised song and stage, writing, traditional music, and dance.

The nine muses are:
Calliope (the "beautiful of speech", chief of the muses and muse of epic or heroic poetry)
Clio (the "glorious one", muse of history)
Erato (the "amorous one", muse of love or erotic poetry, lyrics, and marriage songs)
Euterpe (the "well-pleasing", muse of music and lyric poetry)
Melpomene (the "chanting one", muse of tragedy)
Polyhymnia or Polymnia (the "[singer] of many hymns", muse of sacred song, oratory, lyric, singing and rhetoric)
Terpsichore (the "[one who] delights in dance", muse of choral song and dance)
Thalia (the "blossoming one", muse of comedy and bucolic poetry)
Urania (the "celestial one", muse of astronomy)

They all are! Some say there are nine muses, some three, some seven, but all are connected with specific creative arts, as is their steed Pegasus and the god Apollon.
