Gaia - The Earth Goddess of Greek Mythology

Gaia (Greek: Γαία、 Gaia (Gaea) is a goddess of the earth in Greek mythology, the mother of the gods, and a highly respected and prominent deity among all deities. Gaia was born in the crack and was also the first super primitive deity. Her appearance marked the beginning of chaos from disorder to order, and also marked the beginning of the emergence of all things. In the "Theology", she is described as: "Conflict and chaos come from Gaia, the mother of all gods, who gave birth to all the heavenly gods of the light universe. In her, she sees both creation and destruction, order and chaos. Overall, darkness and chaos are her essence
She was the grandmother of Zeus, who gave birth to the gods Uranos, Pontus, and Ourea. Together with Uranus, she gave birth to twelve Titans, three Cyclops, and three Hundred Arm Giants, all of whom were descendants of her.

Legend has it that after the Bronze Age, humans on the earth became increasingly corrupt. In order to maintain the purity of the world, the angry gods decided to use floods to exterminate the small humans. In a moment, life was destroyed, and millions of lives vanished in an instant. Only Descendants of Prometheus, Diocleon, and his wife Pira, managed to escape to Mount Parnassus, located above the sea level. When the flood receded and the two saw corpses scattered throughout the mountains and fields, they couldn't help but worry about the imminent extinction of humanity.
DiCaprion helped his exhausted wife into a dilapidated temple, and the two of them fell to the ground, praying for the guidance of the gods. At this moment, the solemn voice of the goddess came from above: "I am Gaia, the goddess of the earth, and humans are my children. I cannot bear to see them suffer such a calamity. Let me come and save the lives of the people.
Land is the mother of all things, and stones are my bones. You put on your veil, take off your clothes, pick up the soil on the ground, and scatter it on the ground outside the temple So the two of them threw the soil on the earth behind them according to the will of the goddess. I saw the soil gradually becoming tangible, becoming flesh and blood, while the stones also became soft bones, and the textures on the stones became meridians. The soil thrown by DiCaprion became a man, while Pila's became a woman. The newly born human beings have learned to labor and produce, and have been at peace with the gods ever since. This is the origin of the second generation of humans.
As the God of the Earth and the Mother of the Gods, Gaia gives hope and happiness to all living beings on Earth, and life on Earth can continue to exist for generations, all relying on Gaia's divine power. According to legend, the ancient Athenian king Egos had no sons until his middle age, while his brother Palas had over 50 sons.

Palas was ambitious, violent by nature, and determined to ascend to the throne. This caused great headaches for Egos, as he feared that once Paras was crowned, the people would inevitably fall into the pain of tyranny. So, he prayed to the patron god of Athens, Poseidon. The sea god held a trident and said to him, "I cannot let you have children, but I can let you have a stronger army and a wider land." Egos did not accept it because he believed that war would only bring disaster to his subjects. Mother Gaia was deeply moved when she learned about Egos' choice. In gratitude for Egos' conscience, Gaia decided to have his wife Etra conceive a child.
Sure enough, Etra gave birth to a healthy baby boy, and Egos named him Theseus, meaning "a gift from the gods". More than a decade later, Theseus grew into a strong and handsome man with both intelligence and courage. He defeated the conspiracy of Paras and his group and became the king of Athens.
Legend has it that Gaia made a promise when the sun rose from the east: to plant the seeds of hope into every life born on Earth. Due to Gaia being the ancestor of all heavenly gods, people in the West also consider Gaia as the god of seeking children. Couples who are difficult to conceive will go to worship the statue of Gaia to pray for the arrival of a child.
She was worshipped throughout Greece, and the famous temple of Delphi was originally her sacrificial temple. Due to Uranus locking the Cyclops and the Centurion into the depths of hell, angry Gaia instigated his son Cronus to castrate his father.

In mythological records, the Earth Goddess Gaia possessed many treasures, but the most famous of them was the Bottle of Life. Legend has it that the bottle of life contains the seeds of all things and the spring of life. As the goddess of the earth, Gaia sowed the seeds of all things on the earth and watered them with a spring of life, thus giving birth to life in the world. Gaia injects a spring of life into the mortal world all day long in the sky to ensure that all things can alternate and reproduce endlessly.
