How it feels to worship Mother Nature

Saw someone else do this with their deities so wanted to give it a go!

Might try writing something about my experiences and feelings of devotion as well - anybody else worship or work with an earth goddess? I'd love to hear about it!! 💚🪲🌱

Legends and myths about trees

Legendary tree deities (14)

Nut – Goddess of the sky & tree in Egyptian mythology

Nut the sky goddess was the most common tree goddess.  

A goddess, part woman, part tree on a 21st Dynasty cartonnage. This is a tree goddess. Usually the goddess is Nut or more rarely Hathor or Isis. The tree was usually the sycamore fig (though the word for sycamore, nht, was used as the general word for ‘tree’). Often the goddess is showing pouring out refreshing liquid into the hands of the deceased while their ba (in the form of a bird with human head) stands close by or flutters in the branches.

In ancient Egyptian mythology, Nut (pronounced “newt”) is the goddess of the sky and heavens. She was the daughter of Shu, god of the air, and his wife Tefnut, goddess of moisture and rainfall. Her brother and husband is Geb, god of the earth. It was believed that Geb's laughter created earthquakes and that he allowed crops to grow. When they were embracing, their father Shu forcibly pulled them apart and heaven and earth were separated. This myth is one of the most famous in Egyptian mythology, and the image of Shu standing over the lying Geb and supporting Nut is well known.

Nut became pregnant with five children and Ra, god of the sun, forbade her from giving birth during the official calendar year. The ancient Egyptian calendar consisted of only 360 days in a year, had 12 months of 30 days and 24 hours within those days. She asked for help from Thoth, god of the moon, scriptures, sciences, messenger and recorder of the deities, master of knowledge, and patron of scribes. It has been said that Thoth was secretly in love with Nut and didn’t hesitate when she asked for his assistance.

Thoth was able to play dice with the moon and granted Nut five extra calendar days in order for her to give birth to the five children: Osiris (god of the underworld), Isis (goddess of healing, magic), Seth (god of war, storms), Nephthys (goddess of the night, mourning), and Horus the Elder, the falcon-headed god. These children were not welcomed and were considered intruders in the divine community.

木にまつわる伝説・神話

伝説の樹木の神々 (14)

ヌート〜 エジプト神話に登場する天空と木の女神

天空の女神ヌートは、最も一般的な木の女神であった。

第21王朝のカルトナージュに描かれた、女神のような、女性のような、樹木のような。これは木の女神である。女神は通常ヌート、まれにハトホルやイシスである。木は通常、スズカケノキ (ｴｼﾞﾌﾟﾄｲﾁｼﾞｸ) である (ただし、スズカケノキの単語 ‘nht’ は「木」の一般的な単語として使用されていた)。多くの場合、女神が故人の手に清涼な液体を注ぎ、その傍らにバー (人間の頭を持つ鳥) が立っているか、枝の中で羽ばたいている様子が描かれている。

古代エジプト神話によると、ヌートは、空と天の女神である。大気の神シュウと、その妻で湿気と降雨の女神テフヌートの娘である。彼女の兄であり夫は、大地の神であるゲブである。ゲブの笑い声が地震を起こし、作物を成長させると信じられていた。二人で抱き合っているところを、父親のシューが無理矢理引き離し、天と地とが分かれたとされる。この神話はエジプト神話の中でも特に有名で、横たわったゲブの上にシューが立ち、ヌートを支える図像はよく知られている。

ヌートは5人の子供を身ごもったが、太陽神のラーは公式暦年の間に出産することを禁じた。古代エジプトの暦は1年360日で、30日の12ヶ月と1日24時間から成っていた。彼女は、月、聖典、科学の神であり、神々の��者であり記録者であり、知識の達人であり、書記者の守護神であるトトに助けを求めた。トトはヌートに密かに恋心を抱いており、彼女に助けを求められたとき、躊躇しなかったと言われている。

トトは月とサイコロで勝負し、ヌートに5人の子供を産ませるために5日余分に暦日を与えることができた。その子供達がオシリス (冥界の神)、イシス (癒しと魔術の女神)、セス (戦争、嵐の神)、ネフティス (夜、哀悼の女神)、そして鷹の首をもつ長老ホルスである。しかし、これらの子どもたちは歓迎されず、神々の共同体への侵入者とみなされた。

Earl Sweatshirt & The Alchemist - Geb

[sejoganofervo]

Acordar ao seu lado é como ser abraçado pela manhã pela própria felicidade. É despertar com um sorriso pronto nos lábios, sabendo que ao meu lado está alguém que enche seu coração de ternura e amor. Cada olhar trocado ao acordar é uma promessa de um dia cheio de carinho e cumplicidade, onde cada momento se torna mais especial simplesmente por estarmos juntos. É sentir o calor do afeto irradiando de cada gesto, cada toque, cada palavra sussurrada ao pé do ouvido. É o começo de um novo dia iluminado pela presença da pessoa que faz meu mundo mais completo.

- G.S

Geb, God of Earth is the first God ever aligned with such element, creating the path of fertility - to which he belongs - and that of the Desert as well. Despite his gentle nature, his rebellious attitude led him to commit many wrongdoings in the past which had his family intervening more than once against him. Due to the restriction order he was given for his crimes by the laws of Ma'at, he shows himself only if summoned by the court of the Ennead, spending the rest of his time giving his blessings to his sons and his beloved Kemet from underground where he has been confined.

fav couple in Egyptian pantheon?

Oh you mean like the heavenly pairs of Egyptian Pantheon? Well not sure. There are so many really. Su and Tefnut, Osiris and Isis, Hathor and Horus etc. And all of them have a special significance. Hmm but if I have to pick one perhaps that would be Nut and Geb

Their love story is definitely tragic to think from human perspective given how they are married and yet they are forced to be separated by Su (god of air) even how Nu was forbidden from giving birth to her children by Ra and thus Thoth had to play senet with the child god Khons and gamble moonlight with him to accumulate enough to build the extra days of the callendar where the 4 main gods we know were born (Osiris, Isis, Set and Nepthys) -there are some version that name Horus as well but I go more with the scenario that Horus was born out of Isis instead-

Out of iconographic perspective I love it becase it is the clear representation of our cosmos (Sky, Air in-between and Earth) and the way Nut forms an arch over her husband as if trying to reach him is very beautiful in my mind

Geb is the Egyptian god of the earth. Husband and brother goddess Nut.

I've updated Geb's hairstyle. So he departs a little from the original image - there is no bangs, or it is of a different type, compared to the original sources, but it looks better this way than my first raw version.
