1. It means any one of the Mnemosyne and Zeus’s nine daughters, each one associated with a different art or science.

2. It also means a guiding spirit or a source of inspiration.

I was beginning to wonder if my muse was ever going to come back from summer vacation but she did and I inspired again and looking forward to the changes in my blog. I hope you like them as well.
