So, I had a small get together at my house to honor Aset (Isis), Wepwawet, and Yinepu (Anubis). My friend M. took these pictures and she gave me permission to post them here.

Titles/Epithets of Nephthys
I’m compiling my final list of epithets for Nebet Het (Nephthys) for my book She Who Speaks Through Silence: An Anthology for Nephthys.
Here is a list of some epithets I have gathered from the LAGG vol 8 and other sources:
- Sorceress
- Sister of Set
- Sister of Osiris
- Sister of Aset (Isis)
- Great Mother of Amun
- Mother of Horus
- Mother of God
- Who Protects Her Horus with Her Magic Spells
- Who Protects Her Brother Osiris
- Deputy, Who is Without Gender
- Mother of the Jackal God
- Wife of Onnophris (Osiris), the Justified
Project Updates: Aset/Isis, Nephthys and Lioness Books
So I have three projects that I am working on intensively at the moment. One of them is Mother of Magic: Ancient Hymns for Aset. This book has hymns from Philae, Dendera, Soknopaiou Nesos, Shanhur and some New Kingdom texts. There is also an updated festival calendar and epithets list. I’m waiting on the cover artist.
The other project is Flaming Lioness: Ancient Hymns for Egyptian Goddesses. This is a collection of ancient hymns to different Eye of Ra Goddesses. So far I have hymns to: Aset/Isis, Nebet Het/Nephthys, Hethert/Hathor, Tefnut, Sekhmet, Mut, Menhyt, Nit/Neith and Seshat. I’m still collecting other material and waiting on some permissions.
The third project is She Who Speaks Through Silence: An Anthology for Nephthys. This is an anthology for Nebet Het (Nephthys), the Sister of Aset (Isis). This anthology has ancient hymns, a festival calendar, an epithets list, modern rituals, poetry, essays/articles and a fiction story. I’m adding more epithets and I’m almost done with the final edits.
The 2018 Spring Issue of Isis-Seshat Journal, “People of Prayer,” Is Now Available for Purchase
I have three pieces published in here!
This is an exciting time! In the four years since I have inherited the mantle of Executive Editorship of Isis-Seshat, a quarterly, international journal of The Fellowship of Isis, this has been the favorite theme I’ve devised: Polytheists and Pagans as “People of Prayer.” Why did I choose this theme?
