Crystals Associated with Greek God Zeus

In Greek mythology, Zeus is the youngest child of the Titan Cronus (the great teacher). He is the highest power of the mental plane through the physical, and the embodiment of the aspiration for spiritual growth, expanding the conscious mind, and crossing the boundaries. The history within these myths tell a story of creation and the inclusion of mind into mankind, within which the creation of all existence was born from a union between the infinite sky, symbolic of the Spirit (Ouranos) and the Earth, representing matter in nature (Gaia). In The Theogony, it states that “the powers of creation could not be active as long as infinite Space remained unlimited, as long as Spirit did not accept any boundaries.” And He did not, hiding his children (the forces of creation) in many secret places inside Earth until they became freed by Cronus and His boundaries were implemented through the succession of generations after the first. Cronus became Lord of the Sky and wed his sister Rhea, with whom he had many children. However, warned by an oracle that one offspring would depose him, he began to devour them as soon as they were born. Rhea managed to hide one child from Cronus, replacing the bundle with a rock instead. This child was Zeus, hidden on Mount Ida, the mountain itself representative of his role and of the mind which would then realize the union of the Absolute, the Nature, and Humankind. Mount Ida invites us to imagine that there exists a level of consciousness above the mental state which pervades and overcomes the ego. In his infancy, Zeus was fed the milk of a goat by the nymph Amalthea. Symbolic of the chamois in Greece, the goat is known as the animal which climbs the highest mountains – or in other words, the personality which seeks to climb the highest toward the Spirit. The feeding by the goat’s milk indicates that the highest form of consciousness (Zeus) is developed through an aspiration for growth and from the devotion to finding Truth.
