More Egyptian gods. Set and Nephthys with baby Anubis.
Set (or Sutah in Egyptian) was the god of the desert, storms, darkness and chaos. He is probably best known for the murder of his brother Osiris, but he wasn’t always seen as an evil god. He was also regarded as Ra’s main hero, who fought Apep, the serpent of chaos, each night during Ra’s journey across the underworld.
Nephthys (Nebet-het or Nebt-het in Egyptian) was sometimes said to be the wife of Set. It was not a happy marriage. Nephthys wanted children, but Set was infertile, just like the desert. So according to one tradition she disguised herself as Isis and seduced Osiris. The result was Anubis (Anpu or Anapa in Egyptian).
Since Athena, Hermes and Thoth are gods of learn and knowledge, can I honor them by learning something new or reading a book?
AnonymousOh most definitely!
That’s what I do, I sing and dance for Apollo too. Little acts of devotion, can go along way.
Especially if you find it difficult to do big gestures or can’t have an active altar.
By learning and growing as a person, you are doing what they want you to do.
If it helps, when you have learnt about something new or read a book. You can say a thanks out loud or in your head. Just think of either Deity you follow or all 3.
They are always watching over *in a good way*
Hope this helps :)
