(Intro & soft piano music)Happy New Year everyone! May you be happy, prosper and shine in whatever you decide to do this year!We begin 2024 with a Myth. We've touched upon this lineage before but today, we're going to where everything started. So, in the beginning, there was Chaos and they gave birth to Νυξ (Nyx). She was fierce and frightful and all powerful. Among her many children were Day, Dream, Death, Nemesis and Uranus (the sky) who, along with Gaia (the Earth) created the World. Nyx was also an oracle and she continued , long after the world was created, to advise the Olympian Gods. There is a similarity in most European languages on how to pronounce her name and (alongside other facts), it makes scholars think that the old countries counted time based on the dark part of the day not the light. 'Naktam' in Sanskrit, 'Nacht' in old German, 'Natt' in old Norse, 'Nochd' in old Irish, 'Nox' in Latin and in modern Greek, ΝΥΧΤΑ/NIGHTInstagram @yourgreeksunday ,Blue Sky @yourgreeksunday.bsky.socialemail [email protected]
