Aset with baby Heru 🧡 Dua Aset! Dua Heru-sa-Aset!

Aset is one of my main deities and yet, I never draw Her! So, I decided to change that :)

I associate Heru with the color blue amongst others hence the eyes being blue, and I associate Aset with yellows/golden tans and purples/soft violets but I thought Her colors would look better in the background rather than on Her. I also wanted little Heru's eyes to match Aset's wings. I hope it looks alright 💙

Commissions are open and are very helpful ahead of the Holiday season as I have a dog who just had TPLO surgery on one leg and has to get his second leg done after recovering from this one, and it is a pricy surgery. Send me a message if you'd like a commission, and a proper commission price sheet is coming soon 🧡

Another piece of Egyptian mythology trivia that I really like: There are a lot of stories (or, well, historiolas in spells) about Horus the Child almost dying of scorpion stings. Like, a lot. There’s so many.

And then as an adult he has seven scorpion wives. If you can’t beat them, marry them.

Been seeing several hawks leading up to today, which was my birthday. I think it was a way of Heru-sa-Aset reminding me he’s here for me. It’s been rough, but I know that Hestia and Heru-sa-Aset are ever there. Even the disappointment of my birthday couldn’t overshadow this comfort.

Horus the Younger (Heru-sa-Aset, Heru-pa-Khered) is an Egyptian god associated with sovereignty, justice, and victory. In myth he is the son of Isis and Osiris and is thus the nephew of Horus the Elder. Horus is a particularly complex deity; he appears under a number of names and in a number of guises, most notably Horus the Elder (Heru-wer) and Horus the Younger (Heru-sa-Aset) but he has other significant aspects as well. He had a particular center of worship in the city of Hierakonopolis (Nekhen). He is depicted here as a man with the head of a hawk, wearing the double crown (pschent) of Upper and Lower Egypt. He carries the was staff, a symbol of power, in one hand and the ankh, a symbol of life, in the other. Horus the Younger may also be depicted as a child, wearing the side-lock of youth, sometimes seated in the lap of his mother Isis.

Heru-sa-Aset, master of magics, just one, savior of your father, I praise and honor you.

A prayer to Heru 🧿🌕☀️🦅

O Heru

Lord of the skies

Oldest and youngest of those who dwell in heaven

Creator, defender, son, avenger Avatar and helper of the vulnerable

Uniter of the two lands who dwells at the horizon

And makes the bright sky his home

Your left eye is the moon, your right eye the sun

Double-crowned son of Aset

Fighter of desolation who listens to the prayers of those who entreat him

Your mother leaned on you in her darkest hour, and so do I now in prayer

Glad-hearted king of humanity

Hear the plea of [NAME] your worshipper

With a kind heart please deign answer

And to my modest home please come closer

[lexstellaris]

I have the daily draw post to do still, but I wanted to take the time to film my altars as they currently are and upload those to youtube, and that took longer to wrangle than I imagined it would bc ofc it did lol.

Here you can see my Senut shrine. There's a lot I could explain about it, but it IS late and tbh if you have questions, either use the yt comments or send asks and I'll answer them there. <3

This is my Hekate shrine and altar space. It's a lot bigger, and contains a lot more things, but it works for me. Also, yes, there's a lot of cauldrons don't judge. >_>

Bastet

Bastet is the Egyptian goddess of the home, domesticity, women's secrets, cats, fertility, and childbirth. She protected the home from evil spirits and disease, especially diseases associated with women and children. As with many deities in Egyptian religion, she also played a role in the afterlife.

She is sometimes depicted as a guide and helper to the dead although this was not one of her primary duties. She was the daughter of the sun god Ra and is associated with the concept of the Eye of Ra (the all-seeing eye) and the Distant Goddess (a female deity who leaves Ra and returns to bring transfromation). Bastet was one of the most popular deities of ancient Egypt as she was the protector of everyone's home and family.

Meaning of Bastet's Name

Her name was originally B'sst which became Ubaste, then Bast, then Bastet; the meaning of this name is not known or, at least, not universally agreed upon. Geraldine Pinch claims that "her name probably means She of the Ointment Jar" as she was associated with protection and protective ointments (115). The Greeks associated her closely with their goddess Artemis and believed that, as Artemis had a twin brother (Apollo) so should Bast. They associated Apollo with Horus, the son of Isis (Heru-sa-Aset) and so called the goddess known as Bast ba'Aset (Soul of Isis) which would be the literal translation of her name with the addition of the second 'T' to denote the feminine (Aset being among the Egyptian names for Isis).

Bastet, however, was also sometimes linked with the god of perfume and sweet smells, Nefertum, who was thought to be her son and this further links the meaning of her name to the ointment jar. The most obvious understanding would be that, originally, the name meant something like She of the Ointment Jar (Ubaste) and the Greeks changed the meaning to Soul of Isis as they associated her with the most popular goddess in Egypt. Even so, scholars have come to no agreement on the meaning of her name.

Horus 𓄿 Talon Abraxas

Horus (Also Heru-sa-Aset, Hrw, Hr, and Hor-Hekenu) is the falcon-headed god of ancient Egyptian mythology.

Like many other gods the nature of what he was and the legends and stories that went with him changed over the course of history. Horus was an amalgamation of other, related deities, all of whom were sun gods and associated with the royal prerogative and the sky. Because Horus was a combination of other gods, it is rarely correct to refer to "Horus" as Horus was as much a family of related deities (though many had differing parentages) unified in one being; something similar occurs in many Christians' interpretation of the one God who manifests in three parts.

Heru-ur (also called Harmerti) is the oldest version of Horus, and was a falcon creator-god who was known for restraining Apep. His eyes were the sun and the moon; during a new moon, he was blind and was called Mekhenty-er-irty ("he who has no eyes") and upon the return of his sight, he was called Khenty-irty ("he who has eyes"). While blind, Horus was quite dangerous, sometimes attacking his friends after mistaking them for enemies. He was a son of Geb and Nut and was the patron god of Letopolis.

As a child, Horus was called Har-pa-khered ("Horus the child" and called Harpocrates by the Greeks) and was a son of either Osiris and Isis or Banebdjetet and Hatmehit. He was depicted as a naked boy with a finger in his mouth, sitting on a lotus with his mother. In this form, he was a fertility god and was depicted with a cornucopia. Har-pa-Khered became very popular during the time of the Roman Empire, when he was depicted riding a goose or ram (note Banebdjetet, his father, was a ram god).

Later Horus became absolutely aligned as a son of the dead body of Osiris and Isis (alternatively: he emerged from Saosis' acacia tree). This is very often cited as "the" Horus in many scholarly works. In truth, this Horus was called Har-sa-iset or Harsiesis.

As Har-nedj-itef (Harendotes in Greek), Horus was Osiris' bodyguard in the underworld, called the Duat.

As Behedti, Horus was the patron deity of Behdet (cur: Edfu), where he was strongly associated with the falcon.

As Chenti-irti, Horus was a falcon-god of law and order.

Later still he became associated with the sun god Ra where they combined especially at Heliopolis and became Ra-Herekhty (also Ra-Heru-akhety, Her-akhety ("Horus of the two horizons"), Har-em-akhet ("Horus upon the horizon"), Horakhety, Harmachis (Greek)), god of the morning sun.

Anhur was Horus as a union with Shu.

In the 3rd millennium BC, Set became the patron god of the pharaohs (replacing Horus in the form of Har-mau or Harsomtus) after overthrowing Horus in the form of Har-wer or Haroeris. Later a story became popular that Set had killed Horus' father Osiris, and Set was thought of more and more as an evil god. So Har-mau was again made the pharaohs' patron in this myth: A war between Set and Horus ensued, lasting for eighty years. Har-mau tore off one leg and the testicles of Set, who in turn took out Har-mau's left eye (hence he is referred to as "the one-eyed god"). His eye was later returned to him. Horus won the war (with the support of Neith) and became the ruler of Lower and Upper Egypt. Seth was castrated or killed or moved in with Ra and became the voice of thunder.

Horus was the father of the four gods associated with the canopic jars of Egyptian funerary beliefs: Imset, Hapi, Duamutef, and Kebechsenef.
