Tabauamunet’s ‘B’ entry for the Pagan Blog Project, Being Kemetic Ain’t Easy. She shares the basics of Kemetic Orthodoxy, and some mishaps that probably didn’t seem funny at the time. Her last paragraph sums things up pretty well.

Bathtime! (Pagan Blog Project 2012 #4)
Wash before doing a ritual. In fact, do a ritual for washing! That’s the usual Kemetic practice. Before giving some specifics, let’s take a look at the reasoning behind it. Ritual is something that follows a pattern, and it’s done on a regular or semi-regular basis. Perhaps you have a ritual for turning on your…
Link: eCauldron Kemetic FAQ
It’s not easy to find, but this is the FAQ from the eCauldron Kemetic Special Interest Group. It might help with answering someone else’s questions. Or yours. Would you answer any of these questions differently? How?
Link: Faith
Faith: Something you do, or something you’re ambushed by? A post by Raheriwesir, a w’ab prist of Wesir in Kemetic Orthodoxy: Faith. I’ve been working on a post about ‘godchatter,’ and this is a good pre-introduction to it. Faith is something you do, not something you have. It is something that constantly needs to be…
Kemetic Interfaith Network- Checking Back
Gratuitous Shrine Pic Back in July, I did an initial look at the Kemetic Interfaith Network forum. How’s it been doing? Surprisingly well! At the moment, there are 154 registered users on it, and 2,728 posts. The Kemetic world is a small one, so if you’re active on some of the other forums, you’ll recognize…
Neenee and em hotep!
Kemetic Reconnaissance just hit 1,500 pageviews. I’m very happy with that- it’s a pretty specialized subject, and my first post was in February of this year. Here’s the run-down: Hits by country. The big surprise was Brazil. Bem-vindo, meus amigos, feliz ano novo! (Thank the NTR for Google Translate.) There is a growing group of…
Kemetic Interfaith Network, can it really work?
Many of you will have already seen this, but if not… A New Year’s Gift for Kemet and Her People Will the new Kemetic Interfaith Network forum realize its purpose? I hope so! I’ve often felt like I’m in Life of Bryan, in which groups that have almost the same goals see each other as…
Kemetic Orthodox – Aset Luminous Dua
Aset Luminous! This is the Kemetic Orthodox holiday that is based on the Edfu calendar festival of “Aset the Bright.” This particular one took place on the evening of July 6. I hadn’t had any interaction with Aset, especially since she has a bit of a “reputation” amongst people who aren’t devotees. But I’ve decided…
Kemetic Orthodox Dua- Beautiful Reunion
On June 22nd, the Kemetic Orthodox group celebrated the Feast of the Beautiful Reunion. In the original festival, the statue of Hethert took a 100-mile, four-day boat journey from Dendera to Edfu, to be reunited with Heru-Behdety. Descriptions of the historic processions are here and here. Beautiful Reunion Dua Music is one of Hethert’s spheres,…
Kemetic Orthodox Dua- Tepy-Semdet (Full Moon Festival)
Tepy-Semdet Offering Table The evening of June 15, the House of Netjer held one of their online Duas, via IRC chat. I enjoy these, even though they’re done remotely as text-only. Knowing that other people around the globe are doing the same chat ritual makes it a lot more interesting and adds some power. This…
