[08] -- SEKHMET

✦ TITLE: Lady Sekhmet -- The Goddess of War, Fire, Womanhood, and Vengeance

✦ SACRED ANIMAL: The Lioness ✦ DIVINE WEAPON: Battle Axe ✦ NOTABLE EPITHETS: "Lady of Slaughter; Mistress of Dread; Devouring Flame; The One Before Whom Evil Trembles" ✦ PROFILE: https://deitiesproject.com/portfolio/sekhmet/

----------

Lady Sekhmet, "The Eye of Ra," is the eldest of Ra’s daughters. Her sisters include Mafdet, Hathor, Serqet, and Bastet.

Sekhmet is known for her frightening power in battle, with the fierce intensity of a seasoned huntress and warrioress. She's a goddess of few words and little room for leniency. Though not quick to anger, her unbridled rage can have devastating consequences once provoked.

DEITIES x OC_TOBER -- Deity Profiles [Full Character Lineup]

----------

Sekhmet's another supporting character from the main story of DEITIES -- a powerful goddess who's not to be messed with or crossed. My fun fact for her will be some extended backstory that many already know:

In many versions of Egyptian Mythology, Sekhmet was tasked with culling the mortals who were blaspheming and conspiring against her father and king, Lord Ra. But her wrath and bloodlust had caused her to nearly slaughter all of humanity. This would have led to mankind's extinction, were it not for the intervention of the other gods and mortals working together to calm Sekhmet's mind and end the massacre.

By the start of the main story of DEITIES, the pantheon and mortals have recovered since that incident, and Sekhmet has reformed herself to remain a well-respected goddess. But I imagine it's still not a moment that Sekhmet is proud of or likes to revisit, and one that most beings are wise enough not to bring it up in her presence (emphasis on most -- some of ya'll are bold lmao).

At the very least, I'd like to think it makes her a good foil for Set, and vice versa -- something I'd like to explore more sometime... 🤔✨

Theodisco-Ægyptian private associations, not alleging any historical connection-

Woden = Ré, Thôth, Hôr (in particular his intact eye is the Sun and the eye in the sea of mead is the Moon, cf. the synonymity of Chandra with Soma in India; I think Hôr is the young form of Ré at the end of the mythological cycle)

Thunder = Séth (= Ba'al), beyond the obvious consider also Séths title as "Soul of Géb" while Thórr is always called Son of the Earth

Easter-Free = Hathôr-Sachmi, Ise (and I also think that Tacitus' "Isis of the Suebi" is literally Freyja, there called by the synonymous Proto-Germanic name *Idisiz)

Ing-Free = Ousire of course

Balder = also Ousire (this would also make Nanna an Ise and Forset a Hôr)

Wisdom of the Ages for the Modern World: Sekhmet ‘Warrior, Destroyer’ – Edition 1

Host: Andrew Rogers: Founder of the Egyptian Society, Egyptian Auteur, Oracle.

The Egyptian Society: Sekhmet ‘Warrior, Destroyer’ – Oracle: Andrew Rogers.

The Warrior Goddess of Egyptian Mythology: Sekhmet

In Egyptian mythology, Sekhmet (also spelled Sachmis, Sakhmet, Sekhet, Sakhet, or Scheme) is a formidable deity revered as both a warrior goddess and a goddess of healing. Typically depicted as a lioness, she commanded great respect and fear among the ancient Egyptians.

Warrior Goddess

Sekhmet is deeply associated with war and protection, being perceived as the guardian of the pharaohs. It was believed that she not only led the pharaohs in warfare but also continued to safeguard them in the afterlife. Her fierce and decisive nature makes her an indispensable ally on the battlefield and beyond.

Goddess of Healing

Despite her intimidating nature as a warrior, Sekhmet also possesses the power to heal. In Egyptian mythology, she is revered as a force of both destruction and restoration, with her healing attributes being just as formidable as her warrior aspect. It is this unique blend of prowess and benevolence that makes her an enigmatic and revered figure in ancient Egypt.

Sekhmet's significance in Egyptian mythology reflects the multifaceted nature of deities in ancient civilizations. Her duality as a warrior and a healer serves as a reminder of the complexities and nuances within the pantheon of Egyptian gods and goddesses.

Sekhmet... is a warrior goddess as well as goddess of healing. She is depicted as a lioness, the fiercest hunter known to the Egyptians. It was said that her breath formed the desert. She was seen as the protector of the pharaohs and led them in warfare.(Wikipedia)

Transparent image of Sekhmet I did for an extra credit project two years ago

I made this bracelet with Sekhmet/Sachmis in mind. I've added some things over time, so this sort of is an updated version of a bracelet I made before. It includes Crackle Fire Agate, Tiger's Eye, Red Tiger's Eye, and Amber.

How are Lord Ptah and Lady Sekhmet as a couple? (like their dynamic, I do not know much about them at the moment but they seem so sweet). Also what is Ptah's relationship with his sons? (I remember seeing Sekhmet's with Maahes.)

“How are Lord Ptah and Lady Sekhmet as a couple? (like their dynamic, I do not know much about them at the moment but they seem so sweet).”

I admit that I haven't developed Sekhmet x Ptah’s couples dynamic too deeply yet, but have touched upon it in a couple past asks here:

“[...] are you planning to make a sekhmet/ptah pair?”

“how would be a quarrel/ an argument [...] between Ptah and Sekhmet?”

And I leave some hints of their dynamic in their playlist (even though some songs are exaggerated, the overall vibe still fits them).

More seriously though, their dynamic is hard to describe as a neatly-packaged trope or description -- at least the way I picture them in DEITIES. But basically, they are the type of couple who appear seemingly at odds, but are actually quite familiar with each other and thrive on extending mutual respect. [...]

I wouldn’t describe Sekhmet and Ptah as being "lovey dovey" or as openly affectionate as some other relationships in DEITIES, and it wasn't love at first sight, either. They probably respected, but didn't much care for the other beyond being cordial, so they likely kept to their own domains.

I think the turning point would have been some time after Sekhmet nearly massacred all of humanity, when she needed a solid amount of time to recover. Ptah may have been one of the privileged few outside of her family who was able to approach Sekhmet -- enduring her misplaced anger, helping her refocus her energy, and otherwise lending his gentle but firm support during her lowest point. It would only be long after this period of getting to know each other, and after Sekhmet had regained her footing, that I’d imagine Ptah working up the nerve to formerly become her suitor -- a status he still holds in the current timeline.

Aside from that, they're essentially a very private couple -- more affectionate and passionate with each other when they have moments to themselves, and less likely to display the same around others. The average observer might wonder if there's any love between them at all (especially when they “bicker” together). But their deep closeness is there under the surface of their formality, and they may occasionally slip hints of their solid and long-lasting relationship.

Better not let them catch anyone calling their relationship empty, or that they are courting ‘in name only’ though -- they’d piss them both off really quick.

----------

“Also what is Ptah's relationship with his sons? (I remember seeing Sekhmet's with Maahes.)”

Much like in the original ask for Sekhmet as a future mom, I haven't developed much of Ptah's character as a future dad, so this may be better to explore after Ptah get's the development he needs individually.

What I can say for now is that Ptah would likely be a firm but supportive husband and father, where he'd share responsibilities and decision-making with Sekhmet regarding how to raise their sons. He'd probably be the type to extend quiet affection and guidance to his sons, especially teaching them soft skills (critical thinking, problem solving, empathy, etc.) and encouraging them to be creative. He might have to exercise more patience with Maahes due to how energetic his youngest can be, but that's just part of the role.

Lastly -- in the same way that Maahes looks up to his mother to become a strong warrior god, Nefertem probably looks up to Ptah for his inspiration as the (eventual) God of Beauty and Cosmetics, and I'm sure Ptah supports his son's creative pursuits and endeavors wholeheartedly.

I feel Freyja-Ubasti when I look at the sunset, the shifting of hues is her dance. I feel Freyja-Sachmis when I embrace my righteous anger, and yearning for justice I feel Frea-Aset when I perform my magick in the light of the moon I feel Freyja, Frea, Frigg, in the Neterju, and I feel the Neterju in the Aesir and Vanir, for they are one, they are connected, through time and space, the gods make themselves known to all.
