adoration

[nehdjet]

what do I do when my religious feelings just. vanish? before I was atheist but I started vibing religiously, if I can call it that. doing certain practices for comfort while not truly believing. now since I moved out I haven't had any interest or desire to do anything religiously, like any religious feelings were gone, and it feels a bit like a bummer. I liked those feelings, they were nice. has anyone else had this? any insights?

Sekhmet, goddess of vengeance and divine retribution. She is shown here in bloody glory. Her necklace is real gold leaf.

Sekhmet is for sale. She’s 6x9 inches and is $30.

Can I get a prayer for sekhmet, related to getting mental issues treated and to have strength to deal with them/the pain and troubles they cause me

strongest sekhmet,

may you build upon the foundations i lay

and help it become stronger this day

together, we build myself up

by brick, straw and wood

help my thoughts guard

help my thoughts fight

help my thoughts accept

help my thoughts be resilient

help me bend, but not break

and help me

be powerful as you are

A bronze statuette of a male snake-headed god, wearing the atef-crown. It looks as though he once held something in each hand; his right hand is by his side, with a hole in it, and his left hand is held out as though to grasp a staff. I took this photo at the Discovering Ancient Egypt exhibition at the National Museum of Australia.

When: Late Period

Where: Rijkmuseum van Oudheden, Leiden

I got clay!!! I will soon attempt to make figurines of Sekhmet and Set :)

[nehdjet]

I like the vibes I'm getting from Set. Kind of protective and comforting in a way

This is what hieroglyphs and figures in ancient Egyptian temples looked like before their colors faded. They were recreated using a polychromatic light display at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, following thorough research.

A bracelet I made to carry something that reminds me of Sekhmet with me! My camera doesn't pick the colours up that well, but I used red and dark red yarn for it. It's adjustable, and I added a fake gold bead.
