Devo’s Post: Wep Ronpet or the Kemetic New Year
Here is a great post about the Extra Days Upon the Year (Birthdays of Wesir, Heru Wer, Set, Aset and Nebet Het) and Wep Ronpet or the Kemetic New Year.
I wanted to add that there are prayers to say to each deity on their Birthday on the Cairo Calendar in Bob Brier’s book Ancient Egyptian Magic page 252.
