Mythology Summary

Typhon is the hundred-headed storm-monster, last child of Gaia, who nearly defeats Zeus and is buried under Mount Etna, where his rage still makes the mountain smoke. He is the chaos that order had to fight rather than the evil that order had to judge.

Modern Practice

Typhon is not a god to court. He is invoked only in the sense of acknowledging a storm: his practice is protection, grounding and getting out of the way, and his offerings are made afterwards rather than during.
