"NUT" IS THE EGYPTIAN GODDESS OF THE STARS, THE 'LADY OF THE SKY AND NIGHTFALL'. AS MOTHER NIGHT, SHE REPRESENTS THE UNCONSCIOUS, THE MOON, THE FEMININE AND THE EMOTIONAL BODY. SHE RULES THE CELESTIAL BODIES AND THE BARRIERS THAT SEPARATES ORDER FROM PRIMEVAL CHAOS. SHE IS THE DAUGHTER OF SHU, THE HOLDER OF THE SKY AND OF TEFNUT, THE GODDESS OF MOISTURE AND THE MOON. SHE IS THE WIFE OF GEB, THE EARTH GOD AND THE MOTHER OF OSIRIS, SET, ISIS, AND NEPHTHYS.
SHE IS TYPICALLY PORTRAYED AS A WOMAN WHO WEARS A VASE OF WATER ON HER HEAD, BUT MANY TIMES SHE IS SHOWN AS A WOMAN WHO HANDS AND FEET TOUCH THE GROUND SO THAT HER BODY FORMS A SEMI-CIRCLE. HER ARMS AND LEGS REPRESENT THE FOUR PILLARS ON WHICH THE SKY RESTS, AND SHE IS HELD UP BY HER FATHER, SHU. HER HUSBAND, GEB, LIES ON THE GROUND RECLINING ON ONE ELBOW WITH HIS KNEES IN THE AIR....DEPICTING THE HILLS AND VALLEYS OF THE LAND. DURING THE DAYLIGHT HOURS, SHE AND GEB ARE SEPARATED, BUT EACH EVENING SHE COME DOWN TO MEET HIM, AND THIS IS WHAT CAUSES THE DARKNESS. THE EGYPTIANS BELIEVED THAT IF THE SKY DARKENED, AND STORMS CAME DURING THE DAY, NUT HAD SOMEHOW SLIPPED CLOSER TO THE EARTH.
NUT WAS ALSO THE GODDESS OF THE DEAD AND THE PHAROAH WAS SAID TO ENTER HER BODY AFTER DEATH FROM WHICH HE WOULD LATER BE RESURRECTED. AND, IN ONE MYTH, NUT USES HER POWERS OF RESURRECTION AND REBIRTH TO GIVE BIRTH TO THE SUN EACH DAY...THE SUN GOD, RA, PASSES OVER HER BODY UNTIL HE REACHES HER MOUTH AT SUNSET. HE THEN PASSES INTO HER MOUTH AND THROUGH HER BODY TO BE REBORN THE NEXT MORNING. SHE GIVES BIRTH TO THE SUN IN THE EAST AND SWALLOWS IT IN THE WEST.

Eveningstar of Wakaranga is a Rhodesian goddess who gave birth to animal life after making love with the Moon (a masculine figure in this myth) She shares her responsibilities with Morningstar, her sister, who is the creator of plant life. In this myth, the Moon and Eveningstar come together, and after they made love, she gave birth to the cows, sheep, and other farm animals. After they made love the second time, she gave birth to the birds of the sky and the wild animals. After the third time, human children were born. But, according to the tale, at this point, the Moon had been told that he cannot sleep with her again, but Moon ignores the warning. This time Eveningstar gives birth to all of the dangerous animals.
Now, the Moon becomes frightened and leaves her alone; choosing instead to turn his attention to their beautiful daughters. The jealous Eveningstar sends one of her snakes to bite him, and the Moon becomes very ill. Afterward, the Moon became ill and soon thereafter, the land also became ill and was plagued by famine and drought, and all of the the crops were failing. The people decide it is the Moon's fault that there is no food or water and the cattle are dying. They capture him, strangle him, and then throw his body into the ocean. But, to this day, Moon continues to rise from the ocean and chase Eveningstar across the sky.
