Egyptian Mythology The creator of all things was either Re, Amun, Ptah, Khnum or Aten, depending on which version of the myth was currently in use. The heavens were represented by Hathor, Bat, and Horus. Osiris was an earth god as was Ptah. The annual flooding of the Nile was Hapi. Storms, evil and confusion were Seth. His counterpart was Ma'at, who represented balance, justice and truth. The moon was Thoth and Khonsu. Re, the sun god, took on many forms, and transcended most of the borders that contained the other gods. The actual shape of the sun, the disk (or, aten), was deified into another god, Aten. As stated earlier, certain gods were worshipped in different areas. Local cities or villages, known as nomes, often had unique gods that were known only to that region. On occasion, these gods attained country -wide recognition and became the myths and legends that were passed on from century to century. Below is a listing of the main gods and their primary place of worship. Amaunet - A female counterpart to Amon and one of the primordial gods of the Hermopolitian Ogdoad (group of eight gods). She was also worshipped at Thebes along with Amon and Mut.

Egyptian Mythology , specifically, the religion of ancient Egypt. The religious beliefs of the ancient Egyptians were the dominating influence in the development of their culture, although a true religion, in the sense of a unified theological system, never existed among them. The Egyptian faith was based on an unorganized collection of ancient myths, nature worship, and innumerable deities. In the most influential and famous of these myths a divine hierarchy is developed and the creation of the earth is explained. Creation According to the Egyptian account of creation, only the ocean existed at first. Then Ra, the sun, came out of an egg (a flower, in some versions) that appeared on the surface of the water. Ra brought forth four children, the gods Shu and Geb and the goddesses Tefnut and Nut. Shu and Tefnut became the atmosphere. They stood on Geb, who became the earth, and raised up Nut, who became the sky. Ra ruled over all. Geb and Nut later had two sons, Set and Osiris , and two daughters, Isis and Nephthys. Osiris succeeded Ra as king of the earth, helped by Isis, his sister-wife. Set, however, hated his brother and killed him. Isis then embalmed her husband's body with the help of the god Anubis, who thus became the god of embalming. The powerful charms of Isis resurrected Osiris, who became king of the netherworld, the land of the dead.

7. Main Menu A whois-who of classical, Norse, Gaelic and egyptian mythology. http://www.akasha.demon.co.uk/main.htm

This web page is dedicated to the wonderful stories and legends found in the ancient mythologies. Being mainly Celtic with a dash of Greek, I have always been facinated with the myths of those two races. Recently I have researched Norse mythology and found that there is an equally exciting supply of legend there.Finally, inspired by an upcoming trip to Egypt I started to look at their myths, which although highly confusing, have a wealth of interesting deities and beliefs My only problem in constructing this web site has been in deciding what to put in and what to leave out. I have basically compromised by including a glossary of the main characters in Norse, Gaelic, Egyptian and Classical Mythology and including a few of my own favorite stories. I hope, that like me, you may be inspired to read more about the myths of these great cultures. Mail me! or sign the guest book

It was also called Busiris, "the house of Osiris". Egyptian tradition says that the sun ended his daily journey at Abydos, and entered into the underworld here, through a gap in the mountains called "peq". In the 12th dynasty it was believed that the souls of the dead entered into the afterlife here. AKER The double lion god, gaurdian of the sunrise and sunset. Gaurdian of the peaks that supported the sky . The western peak was called Manu , while the eastern peak was called Bakhu AKH The akh was the aspect of a person that would join the gods in the underworld being immortal and unchangeable. It was created after death by the use of funerary text and spells, designed to bring forth an akh. Once this was achieved that individual was assured of not "dying a second time" a death that would mean the end of one's existence. AKHET This was the horizon from which the sun emerged and disappeared. The horizon thus embodied the idea of both sunrise and sunset. It is similar to the two peaks of the

Royal Arch and the Precession of the Equinoxes Ancient Egyptians and the Constellations: Part 5 The reason Precession occurs is that the Earth not only rotates on its axis  otherwise known as the Axis Munde or World Pillar  it also wobbles . This wobble effect is a phenomenon caused by forces exerted by the Sun on the bulges of the Earth at the Equator. The wobble effect is best explained in terms of a spinning top. As the top begins to lose momentum it begins to wobble. It is this same kind of circular movement, or wobble, of the Earth, which moving at a constant speed over long periods of Time alters the direction of the Polar Axis. One revolution is completed every 25,920 years. The central point of revolution is called the "pole of the ecliptic". The visible effect of Precession on the Pole Star. The wobble effect is best explained in terms of a spinning top. As the top begins to lose momentum it begins to wobble The apparent cycle of the Pole Stars over a period of 25,920 years is not the only effect of Precession as viewed from Planet Earth. Another effect with which most of us will be familiar is the apparent movement of the Signs of the Zodiac across the sky on an annual basis. It is reasonable to suspect that most of you reading this will be familiar with the Sign of the Zodiac under which you were born, and many of you will read your stars in newspapers and magazines everyday. You might be an Aries or a Libra. Or perhaps like me you are a Scorpio.
