Dua Bastet!

Bastet the scary serious deity? Bastet who smiles at me when i pet her sacred plushie? Bastet who laughs at my jokes? Bastet who listens to me yapping about stray kids for hours and approves of my fics where i project on Leeknow being her devotee? Bastet who loves chocolate and gets excited about me giving her some? Bastet who looks at me with confused but amused eyes when i adhd ramble in my thoughts? Bastet who comforts me when i get dramatic when im scared and walking my dog at night? Bastet of who i was scared at first because everyone said that shes a serious and badass deity who will scold you if you annoy her? Bastet who gave me a scolding after i messed up but still forgave me? Bastet who talks with my other deities when they're around? Bastet who comes to hangout with me when im watching perfectly cut screams memes on youtube? Bastet who is protective of me and wants me to learn to control my emotions so i will feel better? Bastet who communicates to me using my family members or friends when she wants to comfort me? Bastet who likes kitty snacks?Bastet who tells me to take a break when i get overwhelmed? Bastet who gets excited when i give her golden jewelry? THAT BASTET?

Moon Knight was okay (spoilers)

Not a fan of Ammit being the main villain but it was cool seeing Her

Same goes for Khonsu, dunno why He's a manipulative, banished God or whatever

I liked the duality of Steven and Mark

Taweret was fucking adorable so loved that

Overall just made me wanna write my own ancient Egyptian fantasy adventure action thingy tbh

I would like to share some insight from my guardian Angrid, sent by Anubis, as I've been bottling up a lot of emotional baggage. She gracefully allowed me to vent and provided some good insight, especially regarding my depression and feelings of self-doubt:

How can Sekhmet help you feel strong when you proclaim yourself weak?

How can Sobek help you flow like the Nile when you fight the current?

How can Set help you weather life's storms when you refuse to change?

How can Bastet help you find love when you don't allow yourself to feel it?

How can Hathor help you give kindness when don't even give it to yourself?

The Netjeru can help, love, and support you, but you have to do the work for yourself as well, just like you should in your earthly relationships.

Thanks Angrid!

Im hotep y'all,

In July of 2021, I had a false awakening and saw a jackal laying on my bed with silver, glowing eyes. I prayed to Anubis afterwards and apparently he had sent a guardian to watch over me, named Angrid.

I have depicted Her as I see Her here.

I understand that guardian angels aren't a thing in ancient Egypt, but does anyone else have a guardian or something like that sent by the Netjeru they worship?

why do people expect witches to buy their supplies from some expensive witchy store? I literally got a 6 pack of mini jars, a pack of incense, two candles, and some herbs from the dollar tree for like $8 USD. your supplies don't have to be expensive.

Didn't tear up as I read this I swear.

Dua Ra!

When I approached Ra I was apprehensive. I don’t like the idea of supremacy. I don’t jive with the concept of kingship, and my past relationship with Christianity has made me shy away from all things “Father God”. I like the freedom of choice and self discovery that I’ve found in entities like Lucifer.

But Ra is helping me heal, and in him I’m starting to find that the divine masculine isn’t so scary after all. I thought because of his nobility and position as a king, he would be harsh and picky, but he’s starting to help me understand what it really means to be a God of kings. It doesn’t mean being served and obeyed just because you should, it means being such a great and supportive leader that people want to follow you. And as a father, a good father, Ra never raises his voice at his children. He gives them the best advice because he wants them to succeed. I didn’t feel like I “owed” him respect. I just wanted to, I wanted to be around him and learn from him. I wanted to trust in his leadership and I wanted to make him proud. That’s very new for me. Having grown up without a father, I’ve never understood what that feels like.

Ra reminds me of the beauty and strength of powerful men. Men who protect and lead and encourage, men who nurture. Men who use their strength to create rather than destroy. Men who are honest and know how to love.

Ra is warm (of course) and incredibly, indescribably powerful, but also so soft. So gentle. And lively, cheerful. A smiling God. He doesn’t need to be stern and cold to summon those feelings of immense respect and honour of being in his presence. He laughs and he accepts offerings with such appreciation.

Today I gave him an offering of bread with some peanut butter and water. It’s the first one I’ve ever given. And I was overwhelmed with this feeling of him being pleasantly surprised by the peanut butter. As if he was saying “oh! Bread AND peanut butter! This is a treat!”

And something about that made me feel particularly softened. You’re the king of the Gods, the blazing burning Sun that gives all life to Earth, and yet you’re pleasantly surprised by a little peanut butter. Lol.

Today was the first time I called upon Ra for protection. I did a modified banishment of the Hexagram and called to him in his many faces, along with Horus cleanse my space and aura. I’ve never felt so confident in a protection ritual. The pure blazing energy of the sun sanitizes everything it touches. As I hummed each syllable of his holy names I felt him smiling on me. He seems to like singing and humming a lot. It was the first time I’ve ever felt right ending a prayer with “Amen”.

I could feel Mother Isis looking on us too, she seemed relieved that I’ve finally found them. Something about all this feels like coming home.

Dua Set!

"You can hear my voice in the Storm.

You can feel my touch in the Wind.

You can taste my lust for life in the Waves.

Desert is not the barren land you think it is. It's alive and pulsing, something not many can see. Just as the Sea, you have to dive under the surface to find its true essence.

But are you willing to?

Are you willing to look me in the eyes and stay still, as I barren my teeth and stare through your soul, ready to devour you?

Or would you rather run away once again, frightened and unchanged?

You chose to stay. Wise choice.

I will offer you shelter in my Oasis.

I will guard you against all that is evil.

I will teach you unprecedented defiance.

I will show you unbearable horrors.

I will tell you unfathomable truths.

And know this: if your Path is meant to be a path of service, you'll serve us, somehow."
