The Need For The Sun God And Sun Goddess

By Haywood Raptis


The worlds religions have changed and evolved over millennia. Every region has its own belief system. The sun that warms our planet has been the center of a lot of belief systems. Some cultures have a sun god and some have a sun goddess.

It doesn't matter if they have a sun god or sun goddess in their religion, at the core it is all the same. We are warmed by the warmth of the sun. It makes light so that we can see. Plant life thrives on our planet because of the sun. It keeps us alive.

Anyone who has a sun god or sun goddess has the belief of being thankful to where we come from and whatever keeps us alive. The sun itself keeps all living things alive and Mother Earth keeps us cradled. Some worship the actual sun and some create idols that take the place of the sun.

Some people use the sun as a fertility god. The is held responsible for birth and replenishing life on the Earth. Couples sometime pray to fertility gods or a sun goddess and even have one in the room when they are trying to conceive a baby.

Some people thought that a sun god and sun goddess may have rode the skies in chariots. They thought that some gods were responsible for the suns movement and even the weather.

Sun idols took on many forms and names. Some of them looked like animals. Lions and Owls have been used as a sun god or sun goddess to represent the sun in some religions.

The sun god and sun goddess have many names. The Greeks called theirs Apollo. Apollo was a sun god not a sun goddess. They believed that He rode through the sky in a chariot. They also believed that he moved the sun around the planet.

When it comes to the Ancient Norse religion, they had both a sun god and a sun goddess. The male entity was referred to as Freyr and rode a boar. He was believed to sail across the seas in a ship and when his ship was not on the water, he folded it up and placed it in his pocket.

There has always been skepticism when it has come to any sort of religion. There are some people who are skeptic of Christianity. Even though it is so wide spread, some people believe it to just be made up fairy-tales. They do not believe in some of the miracles that Jesus was said to have done.

Whether you believe in a sun god or sun goddess or the Son of God is your choice. It is your right to make that choice. No one will ever know for sure which are right or wrong. These things began when man needed an answer for why he was on this planet and why there was a sun and a sky. Always do what feels right to you. If you choose to worship a sun god or a sun goddess is up to you.
