Geb was often referred to as "The Great Cackler" (Negen-wer), who, in the form of a goose, laid the Cosmic Egg from which the sun hatched, bringing light and life to the universe. Because of this connection, the goose became a powerful symbol of creation, birth, and solar renewal. It was also a symbol of the soul and a staple of the marshlands of the Nile Delta. ​Why You’ll Love It: ​Mythological Depth: A unique piece that goes beyond the standard sphinx or pyramid designs, celebrating the "Great Cackler" of creation. ​Natural Beauty: Perfect for bird watchers, nature lovers, or anyone who appreciates the wildlife of the Nile. ​Warm Aesthetic: The earthy tones of ochre, russet, and gold provide a cozy, grounded feel suitable for living rooms, studies, or sunrooms. ​Educational Art: A great conversation piece about the origins of the Egyptian cosmos. ​Add this symbol of the earth and creation to your space and let the "Great Cackler" watch over your home.
