Bright

I am Bright
I am Shining
I burn away evil
I cultivate Ma’at
I am with you
in all this turmoil and darkness
Be the light
for light shines best in darkness
and this is power in its brightest form
Breathe. Light candles. Light lamps.
Shine brightly
You are protected under Our light
We are the Gods and Goddesses of Sunbeams
We are brilliant, fiercely bright
Dispel Darknessby TahekerutAset
It’s My birthday
My day to shine
To be in the limelight
I am the Hidden Goddess
I am the one unseen
Yet I am always present
At every shrine
At every ceremony
At every temple space
For I am the Lady of the Temple
I guard the threshold between the holy and profane
I guard the shrine from impurity and all unholy things
I am the guardian
I am the guide
through shadow and darkness
I shine when darkness reigns
I dispel darkness with My light
The Sun’s power is Mine
since I am the Daughter of Ra
and the Eye of Ra
The Nile’s power is Mine
since I am the Daughter of Nut and Geb
The Storm’s power is Mine
since I am the Sister of Set
since I am the Mourner of Wesir with Aset
since the Nile’s flood is caused by rain
by the Two Sisters, who mourn Him
I am the Goddess
Who shines so bright
I dispel darkness
With My light
by TahekerutAset
I am Aset, the Brightest Goddess in the Sky
I am Sopdet
I am the Solar Eye
I am the Moon when it is full
I am the stars filling the night sky with light
This is who I am
as the Brightest Goddess
I gleam
I glow
I shine
I illuminate all pathways, all roads
I dispel darkness
With light
I dispel fear
With candle flame
So, come to Me
When you are fearful
Come to Me
When you are afraid
And I will quell your fears
And I will give you the strength you need to endure
I am the Possessor of Strength
I am the Lady of Power
I burn away all fear with My flame
All darkness retreats from My light
For I am the Fiercely Bright One
And no darkness can withstand My power
Set, Great of Strengthby TahekerutAset
I am Set
Great of Strength
Lord of the Oasis
Lord of the Land of Egypt
The desert is sacred to Me
Listen
I am here to bring you strength
In this Year of the Lioness
I am here to bring you love
In these trying times
I am not without compassion
I am stern
I am strict
I am strong
But I am the Lord of Love
So listen
I come before you as He Whom the Sky Shakes
I am the rebel God
I am the one who brings joy from hardship
I am the one who brings strength from pain
I dispel fear
I am Set, Great of Strength
And I am here
With all those who honor Me in this year

If I die from any disease
or any injury in your care
Be it doctor, nurse, surgeon or paramedic
Just know that I thank you
Thank you for doing your best
Thank you for fighting death for me
If death won,
Thank you for fighting death for me
Please tell my family I love them
If death did not win,
Thank you for fighting death for me
Thank you for saving my life
May whatever God, Goddess, Spirit or Power you believe in
Bless you and your work
May it become.

This is Sekhmet
I am the one who made the whole world
as Mut
We are joined here
as this is the form of Sekhmet you follow
and this I say to you:
Do not cast people from My House
My temple is for all of My children
Am I not the Goddess of Justice?
Where is your justice?
Where is your integrity?
How dare you bring this bigotry into My House,
My Temple!
Women’s empowerment does not begin by dis-empowering others
Do not tear someone else down to build yourself up
That is not a strong foundation
Do not bring this bigotry and hatred into My Home,
My Shrine, My Temple!
Do not cast people away from My House
My Temple is for all who come to Me
Men, Women
Trans Men, Trans Women
and anyone else who wishes to
Everyone is welcome at My Shrine
Everyone is welcome in My Temple
Everyone who earns it is welcome as My Priest or Priestess
These are all of My children
How dare you cast them aside!
Do not cast My children out
or I will cast you aside

Wepwawet wants His shrine
to be like His Mother’s (Aset)
Large with many statues
with many offerings
He has much to teach you
if you’ll listen
He wants you to honor Him
more often
with offerings and words
He loves you
that is what Beloved means
One Who is Loved
He will lead you to His statues
He will lead you on your way
Yinepu is with Him
as His Little Nephew
as His Brother
as Sons of Ra
as Sons of Wesir
They can have different parents
Wepwawet, Son of Aset and Wesir
Wepwawet, son of Nut
Wepwawet, son of Ra
Yinepu, son of Nebet Het and Ra
Yinepu, son of Hesat and Ra
Yinepu, son of Nebet Het and Set
Yinepu, son of Nebet Het and Wesir
Yinepu, son of Bast
Yinepu, son of Aset and Wesir, for the Ptolemies
But for you,
Wepwawet is dominant
Wepwawet is your God
Wepwawet is your Beloved
Wepwawet is only with Yinepu
when Yinepu needs to be
the Opener of the Way
The title brings the God forth
Wepwawet is with Yinepu when
they guide the dead
Wepwawet is with Yinepu when
their functions overlap
as a syncretism
Sometimes, they can be a syncretism
Most times they come together
For you,
Only Wepwawet
Yinepu is not the same as Wepwawet
Wepwawet is not Yinepu
Wepwawet is a standing jackal
or a sitting jackal
or rarely, a Jackal-headed man
Yinepu is a Jackal-headed man
or a recumbant jackal
or a jackal-headed man with a mummy
or a jackal-headed man ontop of a box
or a jackel-headed man weighing the heart
These are different gods
with different functions
with different parents
with different preferences
with different iconography
These gods are your gods
Wepwawet, the Jackal on the Standard
the Jackal on the Standard is your God
as Wepwawet
The Jackal is your God
as Opener of the Ways
as Lord of the Shedshed
as Lord of the Oasis
as Lord of the Necropolis
at Abydos
at Asyut
at Edfu
as Lord of Lords
as Lord of the Sky
as Lord of Asyut
as Lord of Abydos
as Lord
as Lord of the Roads
as Controller of the Two Lands
as the Son of Aset and Wesir
as the Son of Ra
as the Son of Nut
as the Guide, Guard and Protector
who shows the way to victory
for all who call upon Him
I am the Eye of Raby TahekerutAset
I am an Eye of Ra
I am the Goddess of the Star,
Sopdet, Sirius
I am the Goddess of the Moon
When it is Full
When it is New
I am the Goddess of the Sun
The Solar Eye, the Fierce Goddess
I wield Flame, Magic and Blade
I am the Lioness, the Leopard, the Cobra
I am the Avenging Eye
I am the Lioness appeased at the Isheru-Lake
I am the Cobra whose tears created Humankind
I am the Raging One, I am the Pacified Lady
I am the Wandering Eye
I am the Goddess who returns and departs
I am the Sun as it moves throughout the Year
Days grow longer, Days get shorter
as I leave and return, as I return and leave;
This is My cycle
as the Goddess of the Solstice
in the Winter and Summer
And this too is My cycle
as Sopdet appears and departs from view
as the Moon reflects Ra’s light
as it waxes and wanes
All of these cycles are Mine
as the Eye of Ra.

Cast Your Gaze upon those who are vulnerable
Cast Your Gaze upon those who are poor
Cast Your Gaze upon those who are downtrodden
Cast Your Gaze upon minorities of all kinds
Cast Your Gaze upon Women as Our rights are stripped away
Anyone who is now in harm’s way
Cast Your Gaze upon us with favor
Please protect us in Your name as the Eye of Ra
Please protect us with Your frightening gaze
With Anger Ridden Eyes
With Blazing Fire
With Scimitars
With Bows and Arrows
With Magical Incantations
Protect us from those who would harm us.
Please protect us with
holy arrow, word and fire
Fiercely Bright One
