Philodendron Golden Goddess (Philodendron domesticum ‘Malay Gold’) is an outstanding climbing houseplant with vibrant, neon yellow leaves that makes an eye-catching statement in any indoor gardener’s space. Preferring warm conditions with bright illumination while tolerating some light shade conditions, Golden Goddess is popularly chosen by growers seeking to add color into their home or office environment.
Golden Goddess Philodendron should be kept in well-draining soil that provides ample drainage. A mix of equal parts indoor potting soil and perlite or orchid bark works well; you may also add extra nutrients such as worm castings or bone meal to this mix for additional nutrition. When in active growth season from March through August, fertilize every 4 – 6 weeks while taking care not to over-fertilize.
Din, Farore and Nayru are known as the Golden Goddesses in Hyrule and are said to have created its world through leaving behind the Triforce relic. While Din Farore Nayru appear throughout The Legend of Zelda series games as higher deities of Hyrule they often remain distant, only intervening when necessary or creating immortal guardians such as Skyward Sword’s three dragons or Twilight Princess’ Spirits of Light instead to run Hyrule on their behalf.
Ocarina of Time introduced three Goddesses as golden figures with red, blue and green auras; consistent with their role as Creators they have continued this appearance throughout other games; statuettes have even graced Hyrule Castle throne rooms like The Wind Waker and Twilight Princess.
Farore, Ganondorf’s mother, appears as the Goddess of Light in both Oracle of Ages and Seasons; both games also name her an oracle. While Farore does not appear directly within The Legend of Zelda series, her presence can still be felt through areas named after her such as Faron Woods in Oracle of Ages remake and BOTW’s Farosh dragon Farosh, along with an oracle named Farore who can also be found within these games. Additionally an Oracle named Farore also makes appearances in Ocarina of Time remake and The Link Between Worlds remake versions that also features as an oracle named Farore!
Oracles with names taken from the Golden Goddesses often pop up in other non-Zelda games as well. While we cannot be certain whether this was intentional on Nintendo’s part or simply coincidental, it is intriguing that these other characters also bear names related to these three Goddesses.
While not directly tied to God, The Legend of Zelda features several Golden Goddesses as major themes. Their influence can be seen throughout its franchise – from region naming and landmark designation, to lore, art and even gameplay components – so much so that fans have come to embrace these higher deities of Hyrule as much as we do!
