Nyx (Νύξ. Pronounced: neeks)

Generalities concerning Nyx

Nyx is one of the greatest deities of mystical Orphism and Ællînismόs (Hellênismos, Ἑλληνισμός), the ancient Greek religion. Nyx is a field of reality, a field in the Kózmos (Cosmos, Κόσμος), which cannot be understood. Therefore in mythology, Nyx is called Night. The "darkness" of Night has nothing to do with anything sinister, but, rather, refers to her character as being unknown or hidden. It is generally said of the divine that "there is nothing dark" in the Gods...they are beings of great light...so, we do not use darkness to symbolize them, but Nyx is an exception. In this case, darkness does not symbolize "evil" or delusion, but here darkness simply means "unknown." Similarly, the Goddess Ækáti (Hecate, Ἑκάτη) is also associated with darkness, and this is often misunderstood to mean evil, but Ækáti, like all the Gods, is a being of great light. Her parents are stars, which are actually suns, great bodies of light. She abounds in virtue, and her darkness, like that of Nyx, refers to a field of reality which is unknown or hidden, not evil. Similarly, Nyx is known by the epithet astæroómmatos (asteroömmatus, ἀστεροόμματος), "with eyes of stars," for there is light within her "darkness" as the evening sky is filled with stars.

Like Phánîs (Phanês, Φάνης), Nyx is not a personal deity; in other words, she has no consciousness. The mythology describes her dwelling in a dark Cave (ἄντρον or σπέος). You cannot see in the dark. The darkness of the Cave of Nyx is symbolic of a field of reality in which the potential of everything exists, but has yet to become manifest.

Nyx is called the nurse (τροφός) of the Gods for she holds a significant position in nurturing the Six Kings, of which she is the second. Although there is not a great deal of mythology concerning her reign as one of these Kings, Nyx plays pivotal roles in the mythology of those who follow her.

Nyx and Phánîs

The First-Born God Phánîs produces the Kózmos (Cosmos, Κόσμος) from his seat within the Cave of Nyx [1] who is described in the Orphic Theogony as his daughter [2]. Phánîs is "he who reveals," like light. Phánîs goes into the Cave of Nyx and reveals what pre-exists, thus "creating" or revealing the universe thus making possible what is revealed to develop to its potential.

The reign of Nyx

Phánîs created a mighty scepter which he gave to Nyx [3] and he bestowed upon her the gift of prophecy [4].

Nyx and Ouranós

Nyx gave the scepter to her son Ouranós (Uranus or Sky, Οὐρανός) [5]. Ouranós married Yaia (Gaia or Earth, Γαῖα), this being the first marriage. Yaia now produced children by Ouranós, the Kýklôpæs (Cyclôpes, Κύκλωπες) and Ækatónkheiræs (Hekatonkheires = "hundred-handed-ones," Ἑκατόγχειρες). These children were hated by their father who pushed them deep into the recesses of earth. This act angered Yaia who then secretly gave birth to the Titánæs (Titans, Τιτᾶνες). The greatest of the Titans, Krónos (Cronus, Κρόνος), was cherished and reared by Nyx [6]. Krónos became the leader of the Titánæs. Yaia pleaded with her sons to conspire against Ouranós, and when he came to lie with her, Krónos and his brothers bound and castrated him [7].

Nyx and Krónos

Krónos now held the generative power and was king along with his sister Rǽa (Rhea, Ῥέα). Krónos received a prophecy that one of his progeny will usurp him. To prevent the prophecy to come to fruition, Krónos began swallowing his children. When mighty Zefs (Ζεὺς) was born, his mother became Dîmítîr (Dêmêtêr, Δημήτηρ) [8]. Krónos was deceived by Dîmítîr, who gave him a rock wrapped in swaddling cloth, and who told him it was the newborn son Zefs. Krónos swallowed the rock and this caused all the children to be vomited up [9]. As this was taking place, Zefs was rushed to the Cave of Nyx.

When Zefs grew in strength he conferred with Nyx as to how to proceed. She instructed him to inebriate Krónos with honey and bind him in the oaken forest [10]. Zefs informed his mother of the oracles Nyx had given him. Dîmítîr then held a great feast for Krónos and when he became drunk with honey he wandered off into the oaken wood where he was bound and castrated by Zefs, just as Krónos had done to his own father [11].

Nyx and Zefs

Zefs now returned to the Cave of Nyx and sought her advice as to how to proceed [12]. She encouraged him to surround the entire Kózmos in the Aithír (Aethêr, Αἰθήρ) [13]. Zefs swallowed Irikæpaios (Ericapaeus, Ἠρικεπαῖος), the First-born, and created all things in the universe anew [14]. Zefs is now the king of the Kózmos forever and he rules in conjunction with his sister Íra (Hêra, Ήρα) who is his equal [15].

Nyx is the second Vasiléfs

Nyx is a constituent of the evolutionary progression of Aithír known as the dynasty of the Six Vasileis (Basileis = Kings, Βασιλεῖς [Βασιλεύς is singular]): Phanîs, Nyx, Ouranos, Kronos, Zefs, and Dionysos. Please visit this page for the mythology of the Six Kings: Orphic Theogony.

The Orphic Hymn to Nyx [16]

3. Νυκτός, θυμίαμα δαλούς.


Νύκτα θεῶν γενέτειραν ἀείσομαι ἠδὲ καὶ ἀνδρῶν.

Νὺξ γένεσις πάντων, ἣν καὶ Κύπριν καλέσωμεν

κλῦθι, μάκαιρα θεά, κυαναυγής, ἀστεροφεγγής,

ἡσυχίῃι χαίρουσα καὶ ἠρεμίῃι πολυύπνωι,

εὐφροσύνη, τερπνή, φιλοπάννυχε, μῆτερ ὀνείρων,

ληθομέριμν' ἀγαθή τε πόνων ἀνάπαυσιν ἔχουσα,

ὑπνοδότειρα, φίλη πάντων, ἐλάσιππε, νυχαυγής,

ἡμιτελής, χθονία ἠδ' οὐρανία πάλιν αὐτή,

ἐγκυκλία, παίκτειρα διώγμασιν ἠεροφοίτοις,

ἣ φάος ἐκπέμπεις ὑπὸ νέρτερα καὶ πάλι φεύγεις

εἰς Ἀίδην δεινὴ γὰρ ἀνάγκη πάντα κρατύνει.

νῦν δε, μάκαιρα, (καλ)ῶ, πολυόλβιε, πᾶσι ποθεινή,

εὐάντητε, κλύουσα ἱκετηρίδα φωνὴν

ἔλθοις εὐμενέουσα, φόβους δ' ἀπόπεμπε νυχαυγεῖς.

Nyx [16]


Night, parent Goddess, source of sweet repose,

From whom at first both Gods and men arose,

Hear, blessed Venus, deck'd with starry light,

In sleep's deep silence dwelling Ebon night!

Dreams and soft case attend thy dusky train,

Pleas'd with the length'ned gloom and feastful strain.

Dissolving anxious care, the friend of Mirth,

With darkling coursers riding round the earth.

Goddess of phantoms and of shadowy play,

Whose drowsy pow'r divides the nat'ral day:

By Fate's decree you constant send the light

To deepest hell, remote from mortal sight;

For dire Necessity which nought withstands,

Invests the world with adamantine bands.

Be present, Goddess, to thy suppliant's pray'r,

Desir'd by all, whom all alike revere,

Blessed, benevolent, with friendly aid

Dispell the fears of Twilight's dreadful shade.

Sed cum ex uteri imminutione intellexisset pater editum partum, expetebat ad devorandum; tune Rhea lapidem ei offerens magnum, huac genui, inquit. At ille accipiens absorbuit, et lapis devoratus eos quos primo absorbuerat filios, trusit et coegit exire. Primus ergo procedens descendit Orcus, et inferiora, hoc est inferna occupat loca. Secundus utpote illo superior super aquas detruditur, is quem Neptunum vocant. Tertius qui arte matris Rheae superfuit, ab ipsa caprae superpositus in coelum emissus est.

"But when he understood from the lessening of her belly that her child was born, he demanded it, that he might devour it; then Rhea presented him with a large stone, and told him that that was what she had brought forth. And he took it, and swallowed it; and the stone, when it was devoured, pushed and drove forth those sons whom he had formerly swallowed. Therefore Orcus (Hades, ᾍδης), coming forth first, descended, and occupies the lower, that is, the infernal regions. The second, being above him...he whom they call Neptune (Ποσειδῶν), is thrust forth upon the waters. The third (Ζεὺς), who survived by the artifice of his mother Rhea, she put upon a she-goat and sent into heaven.” (trans. Rev. Thomas Smith, 1867. Anti-Nicene Fathers.)

This logo is the principal symbol of this website. It is called the CESS logo, i.e. the Children of the Earth and the Starry Sky. The Pætilía (Petelia, Πετηλία) and other golden tablets having this phrase (Γῆς παῖς εἰμί καὶ Οὐρανοῦ ἀστερόεντος) are the inspiration for the symbol. The image represents this idea: Earth (divisible substance) and the Sky (continuous substance) are the two kozmogonic substances. The twelve stars represent the Natural Laws, the dominions of the Olympian Gods. In front of these symbols is the seven-stringed kithára (cithara, κιθάρα), the lyre of Apóllôn (Apollo, Ἀπόλλων). It (here) represents the bond between Gods and mortals and is representative that we are the children of Orphéfs (Orpheus, Ὀρφεύς).

PLEASE NOTE: Throughout the pages of this Glossary, you will find fascinating stories. These narratives are known as mythology, the traditional stories of the Gods and Heroes. While these tales are great mystical vehicles containing transcendent truth, they are symbolic and should not be taken literally; a literal reading will frequently yield an erroneous result. The meaning of the myths is often concealed in code. To understand them requires a key. For instance, when a God kills someone, this usually means a transformation of the soul to a higher level. Similarly, sexual union with a God is a transformation .
