Abstract

To construe Cronos mythological approach is undertaken to behold its primordial image and discern its meaning in purity and fullness. The myth of Cronos is subjected to interpretation and reflection from Jungian perspective. The research paper also includes the relation of Cronos with the omphalos (the navel-stone), Cronos as presented in the cosmology of Pherecydes and Cronos in Orphic Theogony.The legacy of Cronos in terms of predominance is also highlighted. In summation: Cronos disseminates fertility, along with his spouse Rhea and children—Hestia, Demeter, Hera, Pluto, Poseidon and Zeus—personify home, child rearing, death, natural disaster and fecundity from the sky, time is the detached preserver of all that has always been, Cronos is the begetter of the prima materia—Fire, Air and Water, and the feminine face of time is the fate. Cronos is placed from the Golden to the Heroic Age of Greek mythology and in depth psychological experience envelopes our collective unconscious in the Iron Age.
