Historical Outline Ancient Goddess NUT
Ancient Egypt held the goddess Nut as one of the most loved goddesses. Known as the sky goddess, she held the title of “she who gives birth to the gods.” From birth to death, Nut played an important role in Egyptian mythology as the barrier between the order of creation and chaos.
Egyptologists believe that Nut was a sky goddess originally worshiped by the early tribes of the Nile Valley area. In Lower Egypt,
the Milky Way was viewed as the celestial image of Nut
. She was adopted into the family tree of the Egyptian gods as the daughter of Shu, the god of the air, and Tefnut, the goddess of moisture. She became the sky, while her brother Geb became the god of earth.
In the creation story, Egyptians viewed Nut and Geb as passionate lovers. At one time, they embraced so tightly that nothing could come between them. Shu became jealous and separated the two. Shu became the air that moves between the sky and the earth. This story explained
the separation of the sky from the earth
. The mythological separation came too late, and Nut was pregnant. She gave birth to all of the stars and planets. Her children would always stay close to her as she was the sky.
Despite a curse from her father which left her barren, Nut seduced the god Thoth. She
gave birth to five more children
on the epagomenal days of the Egyptian calendar. Her children,
Osiris
, Haroeris, Set,
Isis
and Nephthys, became five important gods in Egypt.
Day and Night
Two different Egyptian myths place Nut as having vital powers in the sequence of day and night. In reference to Nut as a lover, Egyptians believed that Nut and Geb separated during the day. In the evening, Nut would come down to Earth to meet with Geb.
Her absence from the sky resulted in darkness
.
The other myth refers to
Nut as the mother of Ra
. Ra uses her body as a pathway for the sun in the sky. Every night, Nut swallows
Ra
. She gives birth to Ra every morning to start the day anew. The Pyramid Texts of the pharaoh Pepi tell this story and reveals Nut as the
“Great Goddess of the Sky”
. In this form, she is the mother of all life and the one who receives all spirits.
Worship of Nut
Although Nut’s chief cult center was located at Heliopolis, Egyptians at
Memphis
worshiped Nut as a healing goddess at a shrine called
the House of Nut
. A sycamore tree symbolized her home, but she was later replaced in the tree by the goddess
Hathor
. Despite being a central part of Egyptian worship, she had
no known temples built exclusively for her
.
Nut would also be associated with Hathor at Dendera. Texts at the Temple of the Birth of Isis reveal how Isis was born at Dendera under the watchful eye of Hathor. Tourists still view inscriptions and reliefs of Nut at Dendera which revealing her both astronomical importance and her religious importance as
the mother of all creation
.
