Goddess Inspiration Oracle: Nut

KEYWORDS:

Nut, whose name translates as “night,” was a mother goddess worshiped by the ancient Egyptians as the physical personification of the night sky. Paintings depict her as a beautiful naked woman covered in stars, her body sharply arched over the earth in protection. She was married to Geb, the god who represented the verdant, green earth.

One myth relates that the sun god, Re, was reborn each morning from Nut’s womb; the rosy color of the sunrise symbolized her blood as she pushed him out into the sky. It was also believed that the dead were taken into Nut’s celestial vault, where the goddess would eternally protect and nurture them.
