basic information:
Nwt (Nuit) — Goddess of the Sky: Pronounced New-Eat. Goddess of the sky. Nwt is shown as a woman or cow with black or midnight blue skin covered with stars arching over the earth. The Milky Way is shown leaking from Her breasts and the Moon is typically shown resting in Her genitals. Wife and sister of Geb. Mother of Aset, Nebt Het, Asar, Heru the Elder, and Set. Daughter of Shu and Tefnut.
The modern English words “night”, “nocturnal”, and “equinox” (as well as the French “la nuit”, meaning night) are all derived from Nuit’s name.
The priestesses of Nuit were known for their erotic dance ritual, which had deep spiritual and religious meaning. Although considered to be the forerunner of modern erotic dance and stripping, these dances have more in common with modern jazz and art dance. A little more than 3,000 years ago the worship of the Pygmy Bes introduced what is now known as belly dancing or Middle Eastern dancing to the temples of Nwt (Nuit).
