Once upon a time, there was a Queen, and a King, and a castle, and a kingdom. And then, one day, there was a child. And then, many years later, there was a Prince. The only problem was that everyone thought he was a Princess.
Me: Yeah Isis (goddess, thanks for that needing to be clarified ya douchebags) is really dangerous.
My mom (after I just gushed about how strong Isis is): Why? Cause she’s a woman?
Me: No, because she literally has complete control over the creator deity, is the mother of the pharaoh god and wife to the god of the dead. And without that, goddess of Egypt which could have been interpreted as the entire world or universe, magic, only one god is possibly smarter than her but she’s much more clever and literally will not stop at anything in her myths until she literally is incapable of doing anything else. It’s great that she’s a good deity because if she were like her brother everything would be dead or worse.
This ancient egyptian symbol is called Tjet or Knot of Isis and it's a sign usually connected with the power of the goddess Isis/Aset. Isis is one of the main deity of the egyptian pantheon, sister/wife of Osiris, goddess of magic and wisdom, goddess of kingship and protectress of the kingdom. She was seen as a universal mother goddess connected with beauty, love and fertility. In the Book of the Dead the tjet sign was addressed with the words "Blood of Isis" symbolizing the lifegiver power of blood, especially connected with the menstrual blood where the power of the goddess lies.
This sign resembles the ankh, except that the transverse arms are folded downwards, and resembles a knot of cloth and may have originally been a bandage used to absorb menstrual blood. Others suggest it represents the female reproductive organs and represents Isis in her role as the universal mother. Knots were commonly used in ancient egyptian religion as magical amulets and spell crafting. Large knot in a mantle were worn by Egyptian women from the Late Period onward and we tend to see the Knot of Isis tied into clothing during the Greco-Roman period.
The tyet can be compared with the Minoan sacral knot, a symbol of a knot with a projecting loop found in Knossos, Crete and with the Knot of Inanna.
The tjet was usually placed in tombs and was made with red semi-precious stone like jaspers. The blood of Isis was often combined with the djed-pillar especially in the decoration of temple ,walls, beds and sarcophagi. The djed is a pillar-like symbol associated with the god Osiris and it is commonly understood to represent his spine. When combined the two symbols alluded, via Isis and Osiris, to the unity of opposing world forces and with that to the unconquerable nature of life.
The tjet represents the female generative power of the goddess in which the magical source of isis lies and thus represents an ancient and very powerful symbol of protection and power.
Isis, Goddess of Magic, is one of the strongest deities of Kemet alongside her brother Seth.
Ambitious and Clever, her magical strength is second only to the Mighty Ra, whom she has outsmarted in many occasions. Despite that, she is also a compassionate Goddess, always eager to protect her loved ones and fight for them until the very end. For this reason, she quickly arose to become one of Kemet's most beloved goddesses, thus gaining a privileged position in the Ennead.
Proud mother of Horus the Young, she seems to be very attatched to the past, and especially to her late husband Osiris, her first and only love.
