"We shall find some curious traces of a cult of this Sēt-Typhōn presiding over Judeo-Gnostic rituals in which Adam plays the leading part. This cult came to be actually codified is attested by the existence of Egyptian figurines of the god Sēt, cast in bronze, which are perfectly appropriate to it. The most significant represent the god walking with the hieratic gait, his body girt with a loincloth and surmounted by a head which was not, not the muzzle of the mythic setian animal commonly assigned to Sēt in the Pharaonic tradition, but the ass's head much more rarely met with. There is no doubt about the identification of the god worshipped in this guise, as one of the great figures of Gnosticism: the pedestal is engraved with the name Aberamenthōu, which denoted Jesus"

A Prayer to Yinepu, Lord of Liminal Existence

Blessed is the Lord who walks the path unseen, for the gentle dark embraces You,  and the silence You walk with creates an unending chorus of peace, for none know when You come, or when You leave.

Hail to the Lord of Ma’at, I invoke your wisdom, Great, and Foremost in the West, The Sacred Land is yours, and so too it’s knowledge, impart upon me the wisdom of Ma’at, Great Lord, that I may be patient like you. Hidden from sight, you wander, and I wonder. Guide of Heaven, of comfort and mystery, Great Jackal, hear my call to You. Lord of the Beautiful West, in you I trust. Lord of the Crossroads, beloved and pure, Be with me, Great Jackal, as I speak to you, The Beautiful Lord of Life and Death, How great are your colours, shown to me in a brilliant splendor of mist and mystery. You stand between the truth of time, resting before the twin pillars of Life and Death, balance hangs on the edge of your palm, and yet, as always, Your balance brings peace to my Ka.

Sutekh as a Desert

Sutekh is often misunderstood, in fact he is king of the misunderstood.

What could be more misunderstood than a desert?

An ecosystem that holds 1/4th of the worlds biodiversity, with more plant variation than a square mile of rainforest?

Without the winds of the Saharan desert, the Amazon Rainforest wouldn’t survive.

Often people think of a desert as a lack of nature, with no benefit, serving no purpose.

And yet, the desert continues to work. It does not need to hear the world’s praises to continue keeping it alive.

Dua Set.

Reblogging for further info! Ty!

Hi I am new to Kemeric stuff and Pagan worship in general but I feel I’ve been contacted by Set and was doing research and found something you may be interested in possibly?

Apparently the best academic work on Set is this one book Seth, God of Confusion by H. Te Velde but it’s like super expensive bc they only ever did one printing of it or something.

That being said it took some searching and I found a PDF of it and I figured I’d let u know bc u might find it valuable and no one else rn in my life will probably appreciate my small hunt for a free version the way I do other than people I’ve seen on the internet.

(I only ask anonymously bc I can’t ask as my side blog for this stuff but if u see a shocked Pikachu face with a purple witch hat in ur activity that’s me)

I'm not sure how long this ask has been sitting in my box so I'm sorry if it's been a hot minute, I'm criminally bad at checking Tumblr notifications 😭.

But thank you so much for the rec! I've never heard of that book but I'll have to look into it! The title alone sounds super interesting. Bummer that the physical version is so hard to come by, I love hoarding cool books.

It Ain't Easy

Devotional art for Set, my protector & guide. The journey may not be easy, but nothing worth doing ever is. Dua Set!

Update on this, I've been working on the sketch and ended up setting it aside for a few days while I sketched a different (unrelated) drawing. Well this morning I had to go to the dentist and take a wild guess what was playing on their waiting room TV? An old Clint Eastwood cowboy movie. Maybe a gentle hint to make sure I finish his art first before starting something new 😅

I'm working behind the scenes on some devotional art and for some reason Set seems like. Bound and determined to be drawn as a cowboy on horseback. Father why.

Thinking about the desert (Image description: An image of the Sahara desert with a silhouette of the Egyptian God Sutekh, he has a glitched effect around his body with a lush green tree masked inside his silhouette. He appears to be holding a glowing orb depicting the sun. There is text from top to bottom which reads, "long ago my storms fed generations, who lay beside one another looking upon my endless night. but you must understand, you must understand, the world will tilt, the crops will wither, and the sun will swallow you all. many will not understand the purpose of a desert, they will reap what it sows while they curse it for its effort. You are not the first. You are not the last. You just are. Description end.)

Drawing Netjeru is always a pleasure.

Real talk though, how are you guys? I feel like I'm hardly on Tumblr these days, is the pagan/witch scene still active here? Without time stamps on posts, it's hard to tell which blogs are abandoned, which I guess could be seen as both a good and bad thing.

Life has been hard this year, and yet my love for the netjeru remains

You ever just get consumed by your love for a deity?

Like one minute you’re fine and the next you are burning for them, your every thought taken by them, their name resounding in every cell of your body, rattling you to the bone?

I think that’s wonderful
