Melqart Cover
Melqart, properly Phoenician Milk-Qart "King of the City", less accurately Melkart, Melkarth or Melgart, Akkadian Milqartu, was tutelary god of the Phoenician city of Tyre as Eshmun protected Sidon. Melqart was often titled Ba'l ur "Lord of Tyre", the ancestral king of the royal line. In Greek, by interpretatio graeca he was identified with Heracles and referred to as the Tyrian Herakles. Melqart was venerated in Phoenician and Punic cultures from Syria to Spain. The first occurrence of the name is in a ninth-century BCE stela inscription found in 1939 north of Aleppo in northern Syria, the "Ben-Hadad" inscription, erected by the son of the king of Arma, "for his lord Melqart, which he vowed to him and he heard his voice".

Goddess Xi Shi Image
XI SHI (pronounced SHE shur) is the Chinese Goddess of face creams and perfumes. She is one of the Four Beauties of ancient China, and was so beautiful that fish forgot to swim and birds forgot to fly when they saw her. Her beauty was used as a state weapon by the deposed King of Yue. He had been defeated by the King of Wu in a war and imprisoned. His advisors trained Xi Shi and Zheng Dan, another beauty, and then sent them to the King of Wu. He was so distracted by the beautiful women that he neglected the kingdom and was overthrown by the deposed King. The Queen of Yue then had Xi Shi drowned so that her husband would not be tempted by her. She is also known as HSI SHIH.

Nut Egyptian Goddess Of The Stars Image
"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.
