She was often depicted as an extreme beauty, dressed in black with a dark halo, emerging from her sexy lair Tartarus in the depths of the underworld. Nyx had many children- all of which embody something gloominous connected to the night, such as Hypnos (the personification of sleep), Moros (god of impending doom) or Nemesis (goddess of retribution). She brings the darkness, and all the dirty secrets hiding in the shadows such as dreams, sexual pleasures and death. Since Nyx depicted the literal concept of night, she is seen as a catalyst to our darkest desires and actions. She happened to be so powerful that Homer himself called her the ‘subduer of gods and men’, and even big baller Zeus got spooked by the awesome power of Nyx. Said to be the first entity born of original Chaos, Nyx was regarded as one of, if not the most beautiful primordial deity to have ever reigned. ![]()
