A prominent theme in the myth of Cronus is the cycle of power and betrayal. Cronus, fearing that his children would overthrow him, devours them, reflecting the destructive nature of paranoia and ambition. Ultimately, he is overthrown by his youngest son, Zeus, highlighting the inevitability of change and the rise of new generations. This theme underscores the idea that power is transient and often leads to self-destruction.
