egyptian mythology: min

min is the god of reproduction, love, and sexual pleasure. as a god of male sexual potency, he was honoured during the coronation rites of the new kingdom. at the beginning of the harvest season, his image was taken out of the temple and brought to the fields in the festival of the departure of min, the min festival, when they blessed the harvest, and played games naked in his honour, the most important of these being the climbing of a huge pole.

Great ISIS, also known as Egyptian Juno, sister and wife of Osiris, was a great name among the Egyptians. An epitaph on a column attests to this, which was once carved in these words:

I am Isis, queen of Egypt, educated by Mercury.

What I established by law, no-one will undo.

I am the wife of Osiris.

I am the first inventor of crops.

I am the mother of Horus the king.

I am shining from the star Sirius.

I founded the city of Bubastis.

Rejoice, rejoice O Egypt, who was nursed by me.

He who wants more should read the first and second books of Diodorus of Sicily, On the Legendary Deeds of the Ancients.

“Do you regret it?”

Isis has waited for the day that this question would be asked. She knew it would be coming. She expects the answer she has thought of, an automatic yes and a grin as she showcases the power she stole from Ra. But, right now, with her son staring up at her...

“I wish I didn’t.”

So Pluto is linked with Fate/the Underworld, & Fate (Moira) balances and avenges the overstepping of natural law. Pluto also rules the sign Scorpio, which is represented by the scorpion as we all know. The Scorpion is also the creature sent by Hekate (another Underworld deity) to punish Orion for overstepping his fate and offending the Gods.

This is just me keeping note and pointing out that the origins of each zodiac and their link to ancient myth & history is soooo very interesting.

Also adding that the reason Pluto is linked to the Underworld and death, is because Pluto was the other name for the God/Ruler of the Underworld. Hades, The Great Mother, The Goddess Nyx, triple-headed Hekate, & Pluto.

Mythology Weekend - Bastet

Bastet is an Egyptian goddess of home and hearth and is said to protect the home from evil spirits and disease, especially for women and children. Women often wore amulets with her image, or that of kittens, to invoke fertility. Originally a fierce lion goddess, Bastet became known as a cat goddess later in time, likely because of the revered place cats held in an Egyptian household. Bastet's temple in Bubastis held a sacred animal cemetary for beloved cats who were mummified and given funerary rites.

One of my favorite stories of the Ancient Egyptian gods is the one where Thoth, in an attempt to circumvent a curse, made a wager with the deity of the Moon.

From The Hunt Museum website,

"The Egyptian Gods were a quarrelsome lot and Thoth’s role as a mediator and problem solver was frequently called upon. When Ra cursed his daughter Nut, forbidding her to give birth on any day of the year, she came to Thoth for help. Wise old Thoth overcame the curse by gambling with the Moon God (Khonsu) for some of his light. He won 1/72th of the moon’s light.  Enough for five extra days in the year, allowing Nut to have her five children (Osiris, Isis ,Geb , Nephthys and Horus) and extending the annual calendar from 360 to 365 days."

I don't know about you, but I watched Marvel's Moon Knight, and now I can't unsee that depiction of Khonsu verbally abusing a baboon (that is glowing with divine muchness) because it beat him at essentially a game of poker.

OSIRIS, son of Camesenuus and Rhea, ruled over the Egyptians for 35 years. He was regarded as a great King and a God. In the 2008th year of the world and the 1954th year before Christ was born, which was the ninth year of the reign of Zameis Ninias, King of Babylon, after he and his young sister had discovered grains and fruits, he began to teach about them in Palestine. Then he returned to Egypt, and invented the plow; and he gradually traveled across the whole world, teaching whatever he had discovered to those who were concerned with agriculture. And so he ruled over the whole world, except for those peoples who had already come under the power of the Babylonians. See Berossus, book 5.
