about

Deep drone choirs and ethereal sonic fields from several gongs.

Nuit is an Egyptian sky goddess who leans over her husband/brother, Geb (Earth god). With Geb, she was the mother of Osiris, Horus, Isis, Set, and Nephthys.

She is one-third of the triadic cosmology, along with Hadit (her masculine counterpart), and Ra-Hoor-Khuit, the Crowned and Conquering Child. She has several titles, including the "Queen of Infinite Space", "Our Lady of the Stars", and "Lady of the Starry Heaven". Nuit represents the infinitely expanded circle whose circumference is unmeasurable and whose centre is everywhere.

In Egyptian mythology, Nuit was the sky goddess. She is the daughter of Shu and Tefnut. The sun god Ra entered her mouth after the sun set in the evening and was reborn from her vulva the next morning. She also swallowed and rebirthed stars. She was a goddess of death, and her image is on the inside of most sarcophagi. The pharaoh entered her body after death and was later resurrected.

In art, Nuit is depicted as a woman wearing no clothes, covered with stars and supported by Shu; opposite her (the sky), is her husband Geb.
