TITAN GEA








In Greek mythology, Gaea or Gaia, the primordial earth or mother goddess was one of the deities that ruled the universe before the Titans existed. In the creation myth, chaos was above all. He was made of the Void, of the Mass and of the Darkness in confusion; and then the earth in the form of Gaea came into existence. After appearing from the cais, Gaia gave birth to Ponto (the sea), Uranus (the sky) and the Ourea (the mountains). She had these children without the need for male intervention of any kind.




This is the mother earth from which all the natural divinities of the planet are born, it was born before Eros (love) and after Chaos. Gaea begat Uranus alone, then joined with him and gave birth to the Titans Ceo, Crio, Hyperion, Iapetus, Ocean and Cronos, the titanides were also born: Aunt, Rhea, Themis, Mnemosyne, Phoebe and Thetis, then the Cyclopes and finally the hecatonchires.






Uranus was ashamed of her children and forced them to live in the depths of their mother, so Gaea planned a revenge and Cronos accepted the mission, she provided him with a steel sickle and at night when Uranus covered her, Cronos castrated him. and threw his genitals.

In all families there are usually fights and according to Greek mythology, gods and goddesses also had shares of family disputes. Zeus ultimately ended up defeating the Titans with the help of Cyclopes and Hecatonchires.

What he did was take them to Tartarus as guardians. After this myth there is not much more data on the participation of Gaia in the affairs of her children. She continued to be very fruitful and had more children, all of them fruit of the union with Pontus, Tartarus and others.
