Shout out to names whose meanings have a direct relation to a deity, gotta be one of my favorite types of names.

If anyone else knows more names with similar meanings to this ones please tell me, i need to find more for my OCs.

Like a fool I didn’t take a photo of the label; but from other snaps, I deduce this is a fragment of a yellow coffin, portraying Neith as a falcon.

aita for not giving my nephew his inheritance?

i (M) come from a family 4. i have two sisters and a brother (older than me). growing up, my brother was always wayyy more favoured than I. Our father gave him all of his property and titles instead of me when he decided to retire. i was annoyed about this since i should’ve been included in the inheritance, but didn’t say anything because i’m pretty strong myself and not a crybaby. Anyways, a little while ago, my brother passed away (unrelated story, do not ask me for context. it was a NATURAL passing), and so i, like a good brother, took over my brother’s property and household and have been managing it peacefully ever since 😌.

However, recently my brother’s wife decided to come back to town and claims that her son should be managing the property instead of me. i politely told her that i’m a lot older than her son (he has no real world experience and would definitely be overwhelmed by the role), and so it really would be better for everyone if i stayed in charge. She argued that since it was originally my brother’s property, therefore his son should get everything, but i think that since my brother’s property was actually our father’s property and i’m the only remaining son of our father, it should be mine. my SIL decided to throw a big stink and has gotten all of our extended family involved too and no one can really make a decision about who the property should go to. my nephew and i have been forced to participate in all sorts of weird “trials” to try and see who’s best suited to stay in charge, and it’s just been incredibly exhausting 🙄 (yes, i have been winning ALL of them!). none of this would have happened if my SIL hadn’t gotten involved.

I’m really saddened by the way my SIL has handled the whole thing, and i know that her son just isn’t ready to take over from me 😒. He’s incredibly immature, short-tempered and generally unlikeable. Some things he’s done during this whole scenario include: chopping his mother’s head off, jacking off in MY LUNCH!!, and making an “L” sign on his forehead every time he sees me. i just can’t stand the idea of a little brat like him taking what i’ve worked so hard to protect and grow 😡😡.

It is with great sadness that I realize I never shared my paintings of Kuan Yin and Neith. They've been hanging on my wall now for over a month and it's been so great having an image to look at daily.

Georges Clairin - Neith (ou Neit) - The Godess Neith.

[starkindart]

Devotional artwork for the Kemetic goddess, Neith! Her dress is made of Nun, the primordial waters of Egyptian mythology, and I included other symbology that relates to her such as spiders/spiderwebs, a bow and arrows, the red crown of Lower Egypt, the shield/click beetle symbol, and the Ankh. As some bonus UPG, I also wanted her eyes to resemble those of a lioness :3

[heckcareoxytwit]

With Shathra dead and gone for good (hopefully), Anya Corazon is presented with a talisman by Neith the first Spider Totem who appears and disappears. Anya Corazon uses the talisman and the magic knife to bring back some missing Spiders - Spider-Woman (Jessica Drew), Spider-Man (Peter Parker) and Scarlet Spider (Kaine Parker).

After being missing for a long time by being retconned away from the magic dagger off-panel, Kaine is back in the Land of Living.

Yet poor Kaine had been forgotten by the Spiders throughout this storyline.

Though I am glad that Kaine is back.

Information

Neith had emerged from the primordial waters, turning into a cow and then a *lates* fish. From there she brought thirty gods out of the primordial waters and raised the “High Mound” for her and her children. She possesses the power to control everything within the cosmos through thought, speech and names. She’s associated with weaving, with weaving being a symbol of the cosmic order and her divine wisdom. Her association with weaving, led her to being associated with making the bandages for the dead, but she herself had created the Duat for the deceased to pass through. She would enliven the dead and protect them during the passage through the underworld with her bow and arrows, which was a trademark symbol for the Great Goddess. Her symbol of the bow and arrows made her a goddess of hunting, later becoming war, and protector of her son, Re. She is the patroness of victorious weapons and would protect both the dead and alive from enemies or those who sought to harm the King and his heirs. Even when those she protected were harmed, you could seek her for her ability to heal.

O' Tatenen, Sacred Mound, From Who all life sprung forth. I have come to Your shores, Arms heavy with offerings.

Hail to you, Creator of the Sun! Hail to you, Great Ancestor!

Let me greet You, in Your name of Ptah, Let me greet You, in Your name of Nit. Let me praise You, Lord of Eternity, Let me be with You, Lord of Life.

she’s the only girl ever

[milky-rozen]

Neith, Mother of mothers, Divine seamstress, Goddess of War and protector of the souls in the afterlife, she is the mighty mother of Ra, who gave birth to the solar egg at the beginning of time.

A very wise woman whose judgment never fails to enlighten everyone's mind.

Born within the primordial tides of Nun, she is related to the water of the holy Nile, which endures life in the land of Kemet.
