Name : The Ogdoad Aliases : The 8, The Primordial Classification: Pantheon of Cosmic deities Literature: Pyramid Text of the Old Kingdom Associated: Creation, The Primordial Waters Patheon/Faith : Early Nile River Valley Civilizations Cultural : Ancient Nile Valley The Egyptians believed that before the world was formed, there was a watery mass of dark, directionless chaos. In this chaos lived the Ogdoad of Khmunu (Hermopolis), a group of four pairs of gods venerated in Hermopolis whom the Egyptians called the eight. They are the personifications of the primeval forces of chaos Nun and his wife Naunet symbolized the primordial waters Kuk and Kauket represented darkness. Huh and Hauhet the eternity of space. Amun and Amaunet represent invisibility or the hidden. As cosmic gods they are represented in anthropomorphic form. They are also sometimes conceived as chthonic animals the male gods appearing as frogs the female as snakes The chaos existed without the light, and thus Kek and Kauket came to represent this darkness. They also symbolized obscurity, the kind of obscurity that went with darkness, and night. the four concepts represent the primal fundamental state of the beginning, they are what always was. In the myth, however, their interaction ultimately proved to be unbalanced, resulting in the arising of a new entity. When the entity opened, it revealed Ra, the fiery sun, inside. After a long interval of rest, Ra, together with the other gods, created all other things. The concept of an Ogdoad appears in Gnostic systems of the early Christian era, and was further developed by the theologian Valentinus (ca. 160 AD). The number eight plays an important part in Gnostic systems, The earliest Gnostic systems included a theory of seven heavens and a supercelestial region called the Ogdoad. Astronomical theories had introduced the concept of seven planetary spheres with an eighth above them, the sphere of the fixed stars. The Ogdoad were the original great gods of they helped with creation of all existence, then died and retired to the land of the dead where they continued to make the Nile flow and the sun rise every day.

Chaos is represented in most belief systems. It is the state from which all existence initially comes. And at the same time the force that threatens to consume us all. Being in a primordial ooze or a vibrating string.

Chaos is possibility it is potential,

 

It is unpredictable and enigmatic. Chaos is both the spark of life that came from the vibrations of the ancient deities of the Ogdoad Cosmology and the force that would ultimately overwhelm the 9 realms at the time of Ragnarok.

What is the full meaning of chaos?

any confused, disorderly mass

a state of utter confusion or disorder; a total lack of organization or order. any confused, disorderly mass: a chaos of meaningless phrases.

 

Chaos theory is a branch of mathematics focusing on the study of chaos —is an interdisciplinary theory stating that, within the apparent randomness of chaotic complex systems, there are underlying patterns, interconnectedness, constant feedback loops, repetition, self-similarity, fractals, and self-organization.[3] The butterfly effect, an underlying principle of chaos, describes how a small change in one state of a deterministic nonlinear system can result in large differences in a later state (meaning that there is sensitive dependence on initial conditions). A metaphor for this behavior is that a butterfly flapping its wings in Texas can cause a hurricane in China.

 

In Germanic tradition chaos or more actually the struggle against chaos (Chaoskampf is typically defined by the depiction of a culture hero battling a chaos monster most often in the form of a serpent of dragon.

As we would see in Thor’s battle against the Midgard serpent. Nut this is a microcosm of the Norse beliefs. The Aesir constantly fought the forces of chaos. And as predicted in its most famous story, the prophecy called Ragnarök. Chaos would win the.

 

North African parallels would include Maat vs Isfet and Horus the younger battling his uncle Set.

Set was the most famous representation of the chaos force. He was dangerous and claimed the life of his brother Ausar. His reign reflected a time of difficulties in the empire.

But we was an important figure in the protection of  Ra on his nightly voyage to the underworld.

 

 most Greek cosmologies tell us – the very first of all, the origin of everything, the empty, unfathomable space at the beginning of time.

 

in the beginning, Chaos was all that there was, the dark majesty and mystery of creation incarnate. And that it was from Chaos that the first three primordial gods sprang forth: the wide-bosomed Gaea (Earth), Tartarus (the Underworld), and Eros (Love), the fairest among the deathless gods. Erebus (Darkness) and Nyx (Night). True, their sexual union would produce luminous offspring – Aether (the Divine Air) and Hemera (the Day).

We can not ignore the association of chaos and dark matter of which accounts for 85% of the matter in the universe and a quarter of its mass.

Sacred describes something that is dedicated or set apart for the service or worship of a deity;[1] considered worthy of spiritual respect or devotion; or inspires awe or reverence among believers. The property is often ascribed to objects (a "sacred artifact" that is venerated and blessed), or places ("sacred ground").

 

French sociologist Émile Durkheim considered the dichotomy between the sacred and the profane to be the central characteristic of religion: "religion is a unified system of beliefs and practices relative to sacred things, that is to say, things set apart and forbidden." In Durkheim's theory, the sacred represents the interests of the group, especially unity, which are embodied in sacred group symbols, or totems. The profane, on the other hand, involve mundane individual concerns.

terms sacred and holy, which are also sometimes us   ed interchangeably, there are subtle differences.  Holiness is generally the term used in relation to persons and relationship, whereas sacredness is used in relation to objects, places, or happenings.  Thus, a saint may be considered as holy, but would not be viewed as sacred. Conversely, some things can be both holy and sacred, such as the Holy Bible.
