So we moved at the start of the month, which means it's time to establish a new shrine.

It's bare bones right now, and that's okay. They would rather me work with what I have than perfection. No words spoken beyond the simple incense and flame prayer. None needed. Instead I feel Their love washing over me, a forceful hug from my divine Fathers.

I love Them, and They love me.

O’ Lord of Storms,

you rage across the sky,

fierce,

firm,

dousing the land in water,

so that life may breath again.

You bring me peace,

comfort,

stillness in my heart.

Dua Set!

Oh Sekhmet, Lady Lioness of Light, may you guide me on my path, and help me have the strength to uphold Ma’at at every opportunity I receive.

My love to you, Lioness of Light, fighter of Isfet and destroyer of evil. I admire your will and your strength, and the fire that burns behind your passion and your love.

May your fur never thin, may your sword never dull, may your cup be forever full of the most wonderful beer and wine.

we have been talking about hugs and hugging your gods over in the r/kemetic server. i was looking up AE-styled embraces this evening and came across this page, which had these gems:

the arms coming out of the void that is ptah's body are slightly unsettling.

and this

wherein tut and his ka is embracing O, but to me it looks more like O is like "no don't touch me" while tut is like "gimme a huggie wuggie" (and his ka blankly takes it all in from behind)

they also had this quote, which i thought was interesting:

since the embrace by a deity appears to have been a privilege of the king … . Such scenes of embrace on pillars may have to do with a god’s greeting the king.”10 Beinlich further notes that “through close contact with the body of the deity … the king is (in the role of a child) newly enlivened, transfigured, and receives the power of the ka.” The sacred embrace is thus part of an initiatory ceremony in which the king is made priest as well: “Before becoming a king, he must first become a priest, and for that also he must be purified with divine water, receive a garment, be crowned, and be led into the sanctuary to receive” the god’s embrace.11 “The embracing (Eg. shn) of [Page 323]the king by the god”12 is the definitive consecration of the king, “who at that moment becomes fully consecrated, crowned, and sanctified.

Like are you sure Anpu and Anput aren’t just the same gender-flux being? Have you EVER seen both of them in the same room at the same time?

i misread "kemetic pagan" as "kermitic pagan" briefly and had the two ridiculous mental images of a whole bunch of variants of kermit the muppet worshipping someone and then "egyptian gods but they are ALL kermit" please enjoy these ridiculous mental images brought to you by misreading things while tired

INSANE ABT THIS. THIS IS QUITE POSSIBLY THE FUNNIEST MENTAL IMAGE IVE EVER RECEIVED FROM SOMEONE EVER. IM LOSING MY FUCKING MIND IF I HAD ANY ACTUAL EDITING SOFTWARE I WOULD BE MAKING SO MANY NEW MEMES RN

Great One who rattles the sky, I honor you!

Strong One whose voice I heard from within the sandstorms of my mind, I call to you.

Mighty One who stands at the front of the barque as I row & row towards the light, I praise you.

(Fearless One who is strong enough to do what it takes, I admire you.)

May I remember You in the faces of strangers whom others so easily shun & misunderstood. May I remember You as I wander & leave what is familiar.

May I remember You in the stretch & the scrapes of falling on unexplored terrains.

(May I remember Your un-judging offer of hand; the counsel that yes, the desert tends to do that.)

But may I also remember the ease in swinging staffs & the power coursing through veins, Strongest of Gods. May I remember the amusement & the joy, even, in taking life with a stride. The laugh that turns frowns upside down.

(May You love me, as I love You.)

Hi, I don't know anything about the Egyptian pantheon but might be interested to learn about it and maybe incorporate it to my practice. But I don't know if it is a closed practice ? I am white and European and I am not sure if that would be considered cultural appropriation ? Sorry if it is a stupid question, I genuinely am ignorant on the subject.

This is an important question, and I am glad you are being considerate of others before moving forward with Egyptian polytheism.

The short answer: no, it is not a closed religion. Both ancient and modern Egypt were part of a larger multi-cultural conversation between the peoples of the Mediterranean, Africa, and the Levant. Pharaonic Egypt was a culture that built empires: colonizing and spreading their beliefs was a part of that. Egyptian belief spread with the Romans even as far as the British Isles!

The longer answer: it's not a closed religion, but being mindful of cultural context is critical to practicing Egyptian/Kemetic polytheism. As white practitioners, we need to be mindful of uplifting Egyptian, African, and Arab voices in our community. Egyptology and Kemeticism both have a huge whitewashing problem. In the twelve years I've been practicing, I've seen this problem come up again and again in multiple groups.

Since the center of Kemeticism is ma'at, I highly encourage you to take time to find and follow folks sharing their experiences (both within and without the religion) as Egyptian, African, and Arabic peoples so you can better understand their perspectives... especially given everything happening in the world right now.

Feel free to send any other questions you have my way, always happy to chat!

A poem for Sobek mayhaps?

O' Green of Plume,

your waters fill my heart with strength.

I wade through the waters,

scales slithering by,

nimble in the waters.

You keep me safe,

guarding my heart from strife,

and you lift my ba high,

rising above the Nile to soar as the Falcon.

O' Sobek,

I raise my arms to you,

and hail you as hero,

warder of my heart.

Dua Sobek!
