History / Notes

Primordial god of the sky, mate of Gaia; represents the vault of heaven that embraces and fertilizes the earth. Uranus was born from Gaia and mated with her to produce the Titans, Cyclopes, and Hecatoncheires. He personified the overarching celestial dome, the fatherly heavens that shower the earth with rain and light. His castration by his son Cronus separated sky from earth permanently, establishing the current cosmic order.
