Tethys (TEE-this)
Mediterranean Deity
Tethys (a.k.a. Tiamat (Sumerian))
Tethys, the ancient Titaness of the primal waters of creation, flows through the ages as the matron of the life-giving seas. Her essence is the unending current that nourishes the roots of the world, a deity whose benevolence is as deep as the ocean trenches. Tethys' form is an ever-shifting mirage of water, her silhouette merging with the rivers and streams that quench the land's thirst. Her eyes, the color of the sea's vast expanse, hold the calm of still waters and the wisdom of the ages. Her voice is the serene ripple of a gentle wave, the sound that speaks of the origin of gods and the birth of the cosmos. As the mother of rivers and the font of the earth’s circulatory system, Tethys’ touch is the cool embrace of freshwater, her influence found in the fluid essence that sustains all life. In Tethys’ care, the cycle of water is a sacred rite, a continuous flow that connects every droplet to the vastness of her aquatic embrace.
