When the Sky Fell, Creation Awoke

Before Olympus, before Zeus, there was only Earth and Sky—Gaia and Uranus. Their union forged the world… but their fracture changed the cosmos.

In Episode 3 of the Definitive Greek Mythology Series, we witness a moment that reshapes everything: the Castration of Uranus. This isn’t just a myth—it’s a cosmic pivot point where love, tyranny, pain, and defiance collide.

Burdened by oppression, Gaia commands her son Cronus to rise. And when he strikes Uranus with a sickle of bronze, from the god’s blood are born three divine forces:

• The Erinyes, winged enforcers of justice.

• The Giants, serpent-bodied titans of rebellion.

• The Meliae, ash-tree nymphs who weave balance into the wounds of the world.

Drawn from Hesiod’s Theogony and expanded through Burkert’s Greek Religion, this episode brings to life one of mythology’s most brutal and poetic beginnings.
