Her naked body emerged from the primordial Chaos.
She wished to dance, because a dancer godess she was.
So, she danced to shape the unformed, to separate the waves of the starlit Night.
From her dance the Wind was born who lustfully wrapped around her body in the form of the serpent Ophion.
A silver egg was the fruit of their embrace. At the fulness of time the egg hatched and the World came into being.

If the atmosphere is the nurturing life-shield of planet Earth, the mythosphere is the nurturing life-shield of human consciousness”.
