Aergia was the personification of sloth and laziness in Greek mythology. She was the daughter of Aether and Gaia. She was said to guard the court of Hypnos in the Underworld. Aergia is simply the transliteration of Latin Socordia or Ignavia (She was transliterated to Greek because Hyginus mentioned her based on a Greek Source, and thus can be considered as both a Greek and Roman Goddess). Her opposite number was Horme (Effort).
