Pelias’ daughters saw this and wanted the same service for their father. She slit Aeson’s throat, then put his corpse in a pot and Aeson came to life as a young man. Medea withdrew the blood from Aeson’s body and infused it with certain herbs which made him seem much younger. Jason later saw that his father Aeson was too aged to participate in the celebrations for the fleece. When the Argo reached the island of Crete, guarded by the bronze man, Talos Medea drove him mad with drugs or hypnotized him.
Medea distracted her father as they fled by killing her brother Absyrtus who she dismembered (in other versions he is killed by Jason.) Medea put the dragon to slepp with narcotic herbs, Jason took the fleece and sailed away with Medea. Finally, Jason fought and killed the sleepless dragon that guarded the fleece. He was forewarned by Medea, however, and threw a rock into the crowd so that the soldiers attacked and killed each other. Then, Jason had to sow the teeth of a dragon in the ploughed field and the teeth sprouted into an army of warriors. Medea gave Jason an unguent with which to anoint himself and his weapons, to protect him from the bulls’ fiery breath. Medea is the typical helping maiden in these stories For example, Jason had to plough a field with fire-breathing oxen that he had to yoke himself. Her father Aeëtes promised to give Jason the fleece, but only if he could perform certain tasks. When Jason and the Argonauts wanted to retrieve the Golden Fleece, Medea fell in love with him. Very often other people apparently saw her as scary and witch like. Medea is often depicted as an enchantress and a priestess of the goddess Hecate. Medea was the daughter of King Aeëtes of Colchis, a niece of Circe, granddaughter of the sun god Helios, and wife to the hero Jason, the leader of the Argonauts. Takaya is also closely conneted to Nyx via myth and Hypnos having a twin with Thanatos in myth is most likely a reference to Takaya being a fake/imitation of a saviour. Like Hypnos Takaya lived in darkness and doesn’t fit in with society. Takaya’s Nyx cult is kinda hypnosis like. The word hypnosis derives from his name and means sleep like condition (hypnos “sleep” + -osis “condition”). Hera asked Hypnos two times to make Zeus fall asleep: One time while hunting down Heracles, another time when Hera asked Poseidon for help due to the Trojan War. He also gave Endymion the power to keep his eyes open so that he can watch Selene. He is often depicted with his twin and is a motif for graves.Īccording to some stories Hypnos is very often connected to the Endymion myth making Endymion fall deep asleep so that he remains young forever to stay with Selene. Similar to Thanatos he is also depicted with inverted torches. He also often carries a horn which is filled with dreams an sleep or he carries a poppy stem or a branch symbolizing the River Lethe. Hypnos is very often drawn asleep and with opium poppies as a wreath or with wings of a bird. Hypnos is rather described as a calm and kind hearted God who helps people in need and who has power over the lives of humans since humans do have to sleep a lot. His children/or brothers are Morpheus, Phobetor and Phantasos who are gods of dreams also called the Oneiroi. According to Homer Hypnos lives on the island Lemnos which is an island of dreams. Herbs which make you fall asleep grow in front of the cave. According to a legend Hypnos lives in a cave where day and night meet and which is the origin of the river Lethe (forgetfulness). Hypnos and Thanatos live in the Underworld (Hades) or Erebos. Accroding to Hesiod his mother gave birth to him herself. Hypnos/Somnus (sleep) is the God of Sleep and son of Nyx and Erebos and the twin brother of Thanatos. On Hypnos, Medea and Moros and artificial Persona users.
