Posted on June 2, 2011 by helmsin2

A fancier shrine- Inviting Bast Over

Posted on May 18, 2011 by helmsin2

The lilacs were blooming, so I decided it was a good time to offer some on my shrine. I dedicated them to Bast. I’ve decided to use my Japanese ceramics in my shrine. That way I get to see them … Continue reading →

Geb and Nut

Posted on May 4, 2011 by helmsin2

The Kemetic Orthodox Devotional Calendar lists today (Shomu 5) as “Geb and Nut are judged before the Netjeru” (Beautiful Feast of the Valley, Day 2). “Spend some of the day contemplating Geb and Nut.” So, inspired by Naydler’s Temple of the … Continue reading →

Posted on April 20, 2011 by helmsin2

Graven Images- Icons and Statues in a Kemetic Shrine

Posted on February 11, 2011 by helmsin2

Kemetic Spirituality

Posted on April 7, 0201 by helmsin2
