In Percy Jackson's Greek Gods, Percy explains Ouranos's predicament. His mortal form is destroyed. He can't appear in a mortal shape on Earth. He is banished to the sky. For Gaea, it's the same, she can't appear on Earth.

Pretend you're a god for a second. You make a physical form of yourself and make you walk over yourself. (creepy right?) If someone destroys that physical form, you're still alive, just not able to walk on yourself. Anyways, that's my logic.
