Description

In tonight’s mythic journey, we step into the cosmic shadows with Nyx: the Greek Goddess who is the night itself. Before Olympus rose, before Zeus claimed the sky, Nyx reigned in the darkness...formless, powerful, and eternal. From her alone came gods of sleep, death, fate, and dreams. Even Zeus, the thunder-wielding king, dared not cross her. Join me, Yarrow, as I let my wilder side, YLDragons take wing and take the lead as we explore:

▪️ Nyx’s ancient origins from Chaos

▪️ Her role as a mother to some of mythology’s most haunting and essential deities

▪️ Why her power was both feared and revered

▪️ What Nyx symbolizes for us today—rest, mystery, and deep creative renewal


✨ Whether you’re a mythology lover, a seeker of meaning, or just drawn to the quiet power of the night, this episode will stir your imagination and your soul.

🌓 Next Up on Dusk and Dreams: "What Do Your Dreams Say About You?" We'll explore how neuroscience, memory, and emotion come together in our sleeping minds. I've received several dream stories that of listeners and mentees that I'll be sharing as real examples as well.

Then, on Friday: We return to the mythic with the Oneiroi—the black-winged spirits of dreams who slip between worlds to deliver visions to gods and mortals alike.
