I chose Nyx goddess of night, born from chaos. I unexpectedly discovered Nyx while perusing online Greek mythology writings by history and philosophy scholars. This took some time as she is not as legendary as other star deities in Greek mythology. She fascinates me, representing the night, the veil of darkness and mystery, mysteries of the soul. She reminds me of Kali, the Hindu goddess, both symbolize the beginning and the end, creation, and destruction. The broader symbolism for Nyx includes, sleep, dreams, fertility, love, conductor of death and protector of children. The Greek poet Hesiod first depicts the origin of the gods in his "Theogony" (c. 700-730 BCE) and later, in Homer’s poetry. Both contribute to the primary account of the Greek gods chronologically, a family tree of the births of the gods. She was worshipped by the ancient Romans and Egyptians but, originally by the Greeks.
