Cosmology, Orphic Egg, Source of the Universe

The Orphic Egg by Artist Jacob Bryant. In the Ancient Greek Orphic tradition is the cosmic egg from which hatched the primordial hermaphroditic deity Phanes/Protogonus, who in turn created the other gods. The egg symbolizes the belief in the Greek Orphic religion that the universe originated from within a silver egg. In Greek mythology Phanes is the golden winged Primordial Being who was hatched from the shining Cosmic Egg that was the source of the universe. The egg is often depicted with a serpent wound about it. Orphism is the name given to a set of religious beliefs and practices originating in the ancient Greek and the Hellenistic world, associated with literature ascribed to the mythical poet Orpheus, who descended into Hades and returned.

Título:
Cosmology, Orphic Egg, Source of the Universe
Descripción:
Traducción automática: El huevo órfico del artista Jacob Bryant. En la antigua tradición órfica griega, es el huevo cósmico del que nació la deidad hermafrodita primordial Fanes/Protógono, quien a su vez creó a los demás dioses. El huevo simboliza la creencia en la religión órfica griega de que el universo se originó dentro de un huevo de plata. En la mitología griega, Fanes es el Ser Primordial de alas doradas que nació del brillante Huevo Cósmico que fue la fuente del universo. El huevo se representa a menudo con una serpiente enrollada a su alrededor. El orfismo es el nombre que se le da a un conjunto de creencias y prácticas religiosas que se originaron en el mundo griego antiguo y helenístico, asociadas con la literatura atribuida al poeta mítico Orfeo, quien descendió al Hades y regresó.
