GAIA

Week 4 of 13 Goddesses Challenge, and I would like to introduce GAIA, primordial Mother Goddess of the Greeks.(according to my loving offspring..."she reminds me of you mum...I don't mean fat or anything...but she does.")

Gaia is the happy mother Goddess, wife to the sky God. She likes reproducing...a lot!!
Some of her offspring became tired of their mother's wanton behaviour, she said it was hubbies fault...
and provided her whiny offspring with a grey flint sickle with which to castrate their father(nice:S)
It is said that the offending items fell into the ocean, and the semen contained within caused Aphrodite to be born...
I am getting the impression that primordial parenting leaves much to be desired lol :D
My Greek Goddess GAIA :D XXX
