Guess who rearranged her shrine!!
-Sand Set / Sutekh Pocket God-
Hail, O great Netjeru, I place myself on the earth before you majesty,
Lord of Storms, I tremble before you, for it is you for whom the sky quakes.
Awake for me that my spine may be of your strength
And my aim as true as your spear.Hail, Set, Lord of Life, grant me your power that I may serve you
This day, and every day.

Set, while misunderstood as a Name, is one of great power and respect. He does the difficult tasks. He pushes, he destroys what needs to be destroyed. He is a god of foreigners, and of the parts of the world that are wastelands to our view. Desolate, but not without life. He is not soft, but he is not cruel. And he one that will always be with you when you call.
This is the Set I get. The calm stillness of the sand or snow. The eye of a storm that is waiting, watching, poised to act and shelters from the desolation around it. He’s a strong name, but also loving, and has been a rock for my heart and my resolve in this trying year.You can get a resin cast version of Him on my etsy now!

Wadjet Eye Amulet
One of the most popular amulets in ancient Egypt, the wadjet eye represents the healed eye of the god Horus. It depicts a combination of a human and a falcon eye, since Horus was often associated with a falcon. Its ancient Egyptian name, wadjet, means “the one that is sound (again).“
In Egyptian mythology Horus’ eye was injured or stolen by the god Seth and then restored by Thoth. The wedjat eye embodies healing power and symbolizes rebirth. An amulet in this shape was thought to protect its wearer and to transfer the power of regeneration onto him or her.
This particular wadjet eye shows the typical style of the New Kingdom, in which the spiral element sits directly underneath the cosmetic line, while in later examples it is situated much lower.Made of Egyptian faience. New Kingdom, 18th Dynasty, reign of Amenhotep III, ca. 1391-1353 BC. From Malqata. Now in the Metropolitan Museum of Art. 11.215.132
