Nyx- Goddess of Night 

Nyx
Nyx is one of the 1st Greek goddesses; it is believed that she and her consort Erebus (God of Darkness) created and hatched from an egg Earth, Sea & Sky. 
She wore a dark cloak of the night sky. Her presence was one of mystery and tranquility.

Nyx was the ruler and held dominance over the Shadow realms; this been said she would overlook the dreamland and help guide people to see prophecies. Along side her brother Hemera (God of Day) they kept the balance between the two. 

As it is believed her and Erebus created our Mother Earth, she is a powerful Goddess to work with. She is the perfect goddess to call in when you are ready to start a new cycle. She is a very strong support for anyone who is taking a leap into the unknown.
