Sefech Ba Ra

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sekhmet
Sekhmet was the daughter of the sun god, Ra, and was among the more important of the goddesses who acted as the vengeful manifestation of Ra’s power, the Eye of Ra. Sekhmet was said to breathe fire, and the hot winds of the desert were likened to her breath. She was also believed to cause plagues, which were called her servants or messengers, although she was also called upon to ward off disease.

In a myth about the end of Ra’s rule on the earth, Ra sends the goddess Hathor, in the form of Sekhmet, to destroy mortals who conspired against him. In the myth, Sekhmet’s blood-lust was not quenched at the end of battle that led to her destroying almost all of humanity. To stop her Ra poured out beer dyed with red ochre or hematite so that it resembled blood. Mistaking the beer for blood, she became so drunk that she gave up the slaughter and returned peacefully to Ra. The same myth was also described in the prognosis texts of the Calendar of Lucky and Unlucky Days of papyrus Cairo 86637.

In other versions of this story, Sekhmet grew angered at the deception and left Egypt, diminishing the power of the sun. This threatened the power and security of the world—thus, she was persuaded by the god Thoth to return and restore the sun to its full glory. 

During an annual festival held at the beginning of the year, a festival of intoxication, the Egyptians danced and played music to soothe the wildness of the goddess and drank great quantities of wine ritually to imitate the extreme drunkenness that stopped the wrath of the goddess—when she almost destroyed humanity. This may relate to averting excessive flooding during the inundation at the beginning of each year as well, when the Nile ran blood-red with the silt from up-stream.

Wikipedia

Sekhmet was the daughter of Ra, and another incarnation of the goddess Hathor. When Ra decided he was going to destroy mankind, Hathor turned into Sekhmet, a bloodthirsty being who unleashed her rage and violence on humans in return for their indifference and disobedience to the gods. She wrought havoc on the earth, almost destroying all of mankind, drinking the blood of the dead and dying as she went along. Finally, Ra realized that he made a mistake but he could stop Sekhmet. He devised a plan to turn a brew some beer and dye it red, and poured it onto the ground below. Sekhmet thought the beer was blood and drank it all, causing her to become drunk and eventually pass out. When she awoke, she was the kindly Hathor again. This episode is thought to explain the flooding of the Nile each year when it runs red with silt, and Sekhmet swallowing the river back to keep it from destroying Egypt. Many traditions of this story, however, separated the two beings from one another at this point. Hathor went back to Ra, but Sekhmet remained as well, continuing to cause war and fire wherever she can find an opportunity.

Sekhmet was also associated with desert winds, both pleasing and unpleasing, depending upon her moods. She was thought to bring natural disasters as well, and the ancient Egyptians often held festivals with lots of alcohol to keep her inebriated and thus, appeased. Festivals were often held at the end of a battle or war, too, in order to keep the bloodshed from beginning again.

https://www.storyboardthat.com/mythology/sekhmet

“The good god, the lord of action, Neb-Ma’at-Re [Amenhotep III], Beloved of Sekhmet, the Mistress of Dread, who gives life eternally. The son of the God Re of His own body, Amenhotep, ruler of Waset (Thebes), Beloved of Sekhmet, the Mistress of Dread, Who gives life eternally.”

— Inscription on a statue of Sekhmet

https://ancientworlds.net/aw/Post/177082

But in spite of the fact that She is sometimes ‘destructive’, Her qualities as Healer, Mother and Protector are often overlooked. In the realm of Ancient Egyptian Medicine, almost all healers and surgeons of Ancient Kemet would most certainly have fallen under Sekhmet’s jurisdiction. Sekhmet was mentioned a number of times in the spells of The Book of the Dead:

The Chapter of Driving Back

The Slaughters Which are Performed in Hensu My belly and back are the belly and back of Sekhmet. My buttocks are the buttocks of the Eye of Horus.

The Chapter of Giving a Heart to the Osiris

May the goddess Sekhmet raise me, and lift me up. Let me ascend into heaven, let that which I command be performed in Hikuptah. I know how to use my heart. I am master of my heart-case. I am master of my hands and arms. I am master of my legs. I have the power to do that which my KA desireth to do. My Heart-soul shall not be kept a prisoner in my body at the gates of Amentet when I would go in in peace and come forth in peace.

The Mennefer Triad – Nefertem, Sekhmet and Ptah

The Osiris Whose Word is Truth I have made supplication to the Khati gods and to Sekhmet in the temple of Nit, or the Aged Ones … I have approached with worship the two Khati gods and Sekhmet, who are in the temple of the Aged One [in Anu].

The Chapter of Opening the Mouth

I am the goddess Sekhmet, and I take my seat upon the place by the side of Amt-ur the great wind of heaven.

REGGAE MUSIC REBORN IN 2022

And for the Reggae fans, I am sure you must be wondering what caused this Spiritual Direction and Intense Focus of this Music! Well it was my personal musical healing journey. To be honest, there is waaaaaaaaaayyyyyy too much toxic masculinity and colonialism for me to continue as exclusively a Reggae Artist. Too much religious oppression and spiritual enslavement. Too. much Caucasity involved in the Reggae Music Industry. I needed to get more in touch with Divinity, with the Divine Feminine, and not be involved in a movement that required me to remain silent.

So, after decades of exploring other Indigenous Practices and Spiritual technologies, I landed in Ancient Kemet. These are the teachings that allowed me to literally CHANGE NY MIND. To transform myself into My Higher Self.

If you notice, all of my music has been about putting teachings of the Four Directions to Music. I stayed in Kemet for 12 years so far, Moree to come.

During the Ancient African Adorations sessions, we dive deep into the teachings offered for the Holy day, then towards the end, the Song Writing Enchantress appears, and creates new music on the spot, based on the Scriptures or reflections of the Teachings. Sometimes, the teachings and writings of Sebai Maa (Dr. Muata Ashby) & Seba Dja (Dr. Karen “Dja” Ashby) are presented. Sometimes, just the personal reflections of the Chantress and Overseer of AstMaataJi Temple of Divine Light Healing and Sweet Sounds, Arit Neter S Mery Maati, aka Tchiya Amet.

This Music is a reflection of my spiritual journey, and is being shared to enhance your own journey as well.

And, now it is time for …..MORE GREAT ORIGINAL REGGAE MUSIC!!! SPRINQUINOX 2022

The Sun Boat and the Book of the Dead
A hymn to Ra is included in the Papyrus of Ani a Book of the Dead that includes reference to the Matet sun boat and the Sektet sun boat as follows:.

“Hail, thou Disk, thou lord of rays, who risest on the horizon day by day! Shine thou with thy beams of light upon the face of Osiris Ani, who is true of voice; for he singeth hymns of praise unto thee at dawn, and he maketh thee to set at eventide with words of adoration, May the soul of Ani come forth with thee into heaven, may he go forth in the Matet boat, may he come into port in the Sektet boat, and may he cleave his path among the never-resting stars in the heavens.

https://www.sacred-texts.com/egy/ael/ael14.htm
Here are a few highlights from this text.

The Hours:
At the entrance of every country of the Duat is a gate; tall are the walls, and narrow is the passage. None may pass by him save those only to whom his name is known. 
In the evening Ra descends in majesty to the Western horizon of heaven, to the portals of the Duat at the Gap of Abydos. Splendid is the Mesektet Boat, glorious its trappings, and its colours are of amethyst and emerald, jasper and turquoise, lazuli and the lustre of gold. At the Gap of Abydos waits a company of gods to prepare the Boat for the journey through the Duat, the land of night and of thick darkness. Stripped is the Boat of its splendour, bare and without glory is it when it passes through the portals of the Duat, and in it is the body of Ra, lifeless and dead.

“Watercourse of Ra” 
In the cabin of the Boat is Ra, dead and lifeless

Ur-nes, Ouranos.
In this country Ra is Lord and King, and those who live here are in peace, for none can pass the great hooded snakes who guard the gates, whose breath is mingled flame and venom. Happy are those who inhabit this land, for here dwell the spirits of the corn, Besa and Nepra and Tepu-yn. These are they who make the wheat and barley to flourish and cause the fruits of the earth to increase.

Watercourse of the only God: Scale of Maat
“the souls of men are not able to participate of the divine nature whilst they are encompassed about with bodies and passions…When they are freed from these impediments and remove into those purer and unseen regions…’tis then that this God becomes their Leader and King; upon him they wholly depend, still beholding without satiety, and still ardently longing after that beauty, which ’tis not possible for man to express or think.” 

“Living one of forms”
Sokar has dominion in this land. Dreary is the waste of sand, limitless the desert, gloomy and sombre the landscape.
Men call this place Re-stau, the Mouth of the Tomb. Even in this gloomy desert Osiris has dominion; Lord of Re-stau is he called, therefore
And now the Boat of Ra can no longer float upon the water, but is changed into a great and mighty serpent with glittering scales. At the prow is a serpent’s head with eyes watchful and fierce, at the stern is a serpent’s head with poison-fangs prepared. Over the sand it glides

“Hidden” is the name of the fifth country of the Duat, and in this dark and gloomy region dwells Sokar, its Lord and King, god of those who are buried…

Savage and fierce as a hawk is Sokar, and terrible is the punishment he metes out to those who rebel against him. Hard by his dwelling is a lake where the water boils and bubbles with heat as water boils in a pot. Into the boiling lake are cast the rebels, and they cry to Ra for help, but Ra lies cold and lifeless, waiting for the coming of Khepera, and their cries are unheeded while the Boat passes on its way.

Slowly goes the Boat of Ra, passing through the Duat, through regions of thick darkness, of terror and dismay, to the place where the abominable Apep lies in wait for the coming of Ra.

“Abyss of waters” is the name of the sixth country of the Duat, The river rises out of the sand again, and the Boat floats upon its waters, and those who are in it rejoice, for the hours of the night are passing away. 

Here also lives the great coiled serpent with five heads, and within his coils lies Khepera, god of resurrection. On his head he places the scarab, beneath his feet is the sign of flesh; thus does he send Life into the dead, and thus will he re-vivify Ra. For this is the farthest point of the Duat, and beyond the gate lies the way to the sunrise.

“Secret cavern” is the name of the seventh country of the Duat. 

Full of danger and peril is it, for the abominable Apep dwells in this land. As a great and monstrous serpent does he appear and with wide-open mouth he swallows the waters of the river, that the Boat may be wrecked and that Ra may perish. Then would the earth belong to the powers of darkness, and evil and wickedness would overcome the gods.

But in the prow of the Boat stands Isis, the great enchantress, whose magic none can withstand; Isis, the greatest of the goddesses, she who can raise the dead, and to whom all mankind pay love and reverence. With arms outstretched, she recites the Words of Power; calling aloud across the dark river.  On a sandbank in the midst of the river lies the abominable Apep. hen Selk and Her-desuf leap from the Boat of Ra and bind him with cords, and with sharp knives they pierce his flesh, hoping to destroy him. But Apep is immortal, and every night will he await and attack the Boat of Ra. Yet Selk and Her-desuf hold him fast while the Boat continues on its way, past the great sandbanks, where he writhes and twists and struggles to get free, but the cords are strong and the knives are sharp and his efforts are in vain.

“Sarcophagus of the gods” is the name of the eighth country of the Duat, for here dwell the dead gods. Dead and buried are they, embalmed and bandaged as men embalm and bandage the dead upon earth. 

Softly goes the Boat of Ra, passing through the Duat, moving through the darkness to the sunrise and the day.
“Procession of images” is the name of the ninth country of the Duat.

From them the dwellers in this land receive the offerings which are made to them upon the earth. Then the star-gods break into singing; and the twelve goddesses and the weaving gods and the dwellers in this land chant the glory and honour of Ra, praising the Lord of the Boat, the Maker of earth and of heaven. With joy and singing they follow the appointed path.

“Abyss of waters, lofty of banks” is the name of the tenth country of the Duat, and the ruler is Ra. By the side of the river are four goddesses; upon the darkness they cast beams of light, making bright the way of Ra upon the gloomy river. Before the Boat of Ra moves the Star of Morning…The greatest of all the countries of the Duat is this, for in this realm of wonder and mystery Khepera joins himself to Ra, and Ra himself is created anew. Yet the dead body of Ra remains in the Boat; but his soul is united to the soul of Khepera.

“Mouth of the cavern” is the name of the eleventh country of the Duat, and Ra is its ruler. 

“Darkness has fallen, and births shine forth” is the name of the twelfth country of the Duat. On the prow of the Boat is the great scarab of Khepera, ready to make the transformations of Ra ere he reaches the end of the Duat.

Without further ado, The OFFICIAL Two Roads Music Video is now available on the Tchiya Amet VEVO youtube Channel!

⠀

Of course it would be released during Mercury Retro and, BLACK HISTORY MONTH!!!! it was actually released on other platforms on January 18, however for some reason, the Universe conspired to release on youtube yesterday….on February 4!!!!

The Lyrics of the song Two Roads are straight from my notes from the book Maat Wisdom and Philosophy by Dr. Muata Ashby ( Sebai Maa). The 2 roads are the path of Ignorance of the Divine (Egoism) & the Path of Wisdom of the Divine ( Intuitional Wisdom, Spiritual Aspiration & the Redemption of the Soul).

⠀

The message of this video is basically to stop begging the colonizers for freedom. We must be Free within Our Hearts & Minds to evoke change. Protesting has made life different, but not better for us. Most people still practice the religion of their oppressors, which is spiritual enslavement. There is no savior or prophet coming back to liberate us. No more Martyrs please. No more of our heroes sheroes being killed. We must LIBERATE OUR MINDS & OURSELVES, Help the Children to do the same, set an example. No one can really free or enlighten anyone else. Cannot save anyone or save the world: IF WE EACH FOCUS ON THE INNER WORLD, we will see change in outer world. We can help each other find tools for enlightenment, however we must do the inner work…FOR OUR SELVES….

⠀

I have watched protests, executions & the corruption of Black & Indigenous leaders for 50 years: MLK was the first assassination I was aware of at age 8. Let’s stop matching & walking and Turn within, turn to Ancestral Ways of Africans & Indigenous Peoples of the Four Directions. Spiritual Enslavement will NEVER lead us to the Freedom & Peace we seek… we are deserving of, OUR INHERITANCE!

Udja! Uben Nefer Nehast! Good Rising and Great Awakenings.

The Music of Tchiya Amet has evolved and expanded over the last 3 decades, reflecting her Spiritual Journey, growth and development with every song, with every melody, starting as “Just” a Reggae band, then Sirius Reggae, Native Reggae, always Cosmic, Conscious and Spiritual Reggae, then Celestial Reggae! Next, we expanded to World Music. If you notice, the songs are usually based on Ancient teachings from the Four Directions.

After exploring the Culture, Wisdom and Teachings of Turtle Island (for instance: Tsalagi (Cherokee), Lakota, Hopi etc), and Eastern Spiritual Traditions (Buddhism, Hinduism) this Music finally made its way Back To Africa as Tchiya began her studies of Kemetic (Ancient African Egyptian) Science, Wisdom, Spirituality and Yoga, and has been ongoing for the past 10 years.

The studies of these teachings has resulted in a profound change in her consciousness, as well as much needed healing at the Spiritual and mental levels. This has brought forth wonderful new music, in fact, a completely new genre for her. One that is not well known by the majority of music lovers or even spiritual community.: DEVOTIONAL WORLD MUSIC. This music can be utilized for meditation, yoga practice, or just for spiritual enjoyment. There are many women who have gone through spiritual awakening, and their music styles were transformed, especially her mentor, Alice Coltrane, also Donna delory. However, these were all based upon the Hindu or eastern Yoga traditions and Buddhism. There are also singers in the native traditions, that began as rock, then as they went back to their roots, beautiful Native American Hymns came through their souls, singers such as B=uffy St. Marie, Joanne Shenandoah, and Rita Coolidge.

Tchiya Amet has traveled through these traditions, and now has found her musical abode within Kemet, following the teachings of Shetaut Neter (Hidden Divinity) under the guidance of Dr. Muata Ashby (Sebai Maa) and Dr. Karen Dja Ashby (Seba Dja). Visit their website at egyptianyoga.com

Tchiya had been looking for a place to offer these concerts since moving to Chicago, with not much success. Then, on December 30, Sebai Maa challenged her to start streaming the concert series online. January 24 was the first live stream on YouTube, and was met with success. After 4 more concerts on youtube, one streamed from Cairo Egypt, the series was moved to another platform: stageit.com.

The Music comes through in many ways:
1. when studying teachings from classes I am taking, certain phrases or passages stand out, and then a melody coms though when going over my notes! This is how most of my Reggae Songs came abut as well… reflecting on Spiritual Teachings from Indigenous Cultures and Traditions of the 4 Directions…

2. I have an issue, and am looking for a chant or prayer to shift my frequency and vibration. These would be called Sacred Words of Power.

3. Reading the passages of the Pert m Heru, in order to write a prayer for someone that has passed away.

4. Inspired by Celestial or Current events, the Hekau (chants) are like Musical Remedies. Often times, Hekau are sacred words of power, but most of the time, they are for Adoration…

5. Divine Singing: selected scriptures are put to music. They are not chanting, but Divine Singing, and these passages usually contain some type of formula or ritual within them.
“The Breath of Life is Contained within Sacred Words of Power.” Kemetic Wisdom

6. Traveling in Kemet and visiting the temples ALWAYS inspires new music. In fact, I have begun a Musical Initiatic Journey Travel Journal to document my experiences. The Concert from Cairo features the new songs that came through.

There is sooooooo much new music now, that I must simply (HA!) not easy though) STOP EVERYTHING and start recording…..

Join us every Second and Fourth Friday for a unique, one-of-a-kind online experience. Although I began streaming before the Plandemic, thanks to COVID19, now EVERYONE is doing online streaming concerts! Prayerfully, one day soon, we will be able to attend and present live in person concerts again. But for now, thank goodness we can experience music together in this way.

Please buy your ticket at least 3 hours in advance of the showtime, so that you can receive the Concert handout, which contains the lyrics, translations and teachings for the music that is offered. If you would like top receive the replays for the previous stage concerts, just send a small donation to paypal.me/tchiyaamet or cash app: $AmetElMaat and the links will be sent to you.

About Tchiya

“Her music is rooted in Roots Reggae, Traditional Native American, Afro Brazilian and Afro Cuban  music, a blend of Indigenous and Contemporary world rhythms I call “Reggae Fusion Jazz”- says Sirron Kyles, General Manager at HousTone Records.

Tchiya is a student of several languages, “I can order dinner and get around town in many places!”-she jokes. Many different languages are featured in songs on this CD. “Often referred to as the Island’s Robert Flack because of her soft vocal style, but similarities to Sade and Esperanza Spalding, a mild Erykah Badu, Sun Ra because of Tchiya’s fondness for unique instrumental arrangements,  and of course Bob Marley because of her oneness messages which are always featured in her song lyrics”- says Marc Gordon Entertainment Editor, Waiting Room, USA Magazine.

Standing Rock Medicine Wheel Living Park is hosting the first Summer Solstice Celebration June 22-24. They invited Tchiya Amet and Band to bring Native Reggae to the event. When I first learned of the event, I figured it was a fundraiser for Standing Rock. But, it is not like you are probably thinking. Beth and Robert White Mountain are Lakota People with a vision to bring people together in honor of the Summer Solstice. Yes, they live at Standing Rock in South Dakota.

The festival organizers are able to compensate, however, it is not enough to cover transportation costs. So, rather than cancel the appearance, we chose to reach out to community and raise funds. I started a patreon page, but so many people had problems figuring out how to use it, and so, even though this page is “homemade”, it works the same way. You can still go the patreon page and make an offering.

Udja Uber Nefer! WOW! Looks like a Planetary Traffic Jam, a Neterian Conglomeration. And lots of wide open space, which means imbalance…..

Letz begin. First of all, the New Moon is in Aries, with the Sun. Dua Sesheta Tamet Ammon or Amun. Tamet Ammon is the powerful leader, steadfast in strength and faith and power. When the New Moon is in this sign, it means that it is time to boost ones character and personality with extra doses of Self confidence. There is untapped power reserved for you, but you must learn to access the power within, rather than depending on others to draw it out of you, or waiting for adversity to force it out. Learn how to remain seated in your own power, your own source. Sesheta is the Goddess of writing, the female scribe, and consort and partner to Djenuty. Writing is a very good start, or like for me songwriting. The leads us to RA, the Sun also in this sign. Utilize your Creativity to tap into this power, this inner strength that is waiting to support you on the road to steadfastness. You can use your creative forces to express your dynamic WILL, and manifest your intentions and true desires. If you have stopped writing in your journal, or have never had a journal, this is the perfect time to start, or to start anew.

from www.westernsiderealastro.com/
“Being born in Sidereal Aries (Tamet Ammon) you are an essentially positive restless and
idealistic character. Always ready to move on to the next thing you display a degree of
energy and drive that fills your life with considerable excitement. Your super abundant
energy is the envy of your friends and enemies alike.”

And now, for the Conjunction of the Day:
Dua Djehuty, Dua Heru, Dua HetHeru and Dua Chiron all in Picot Sahu. Or, Mercury, Venus, Uranus and Chiron all in Sidereal Pisces. By the way, Mercury is still Retrograde, that Portal of Djehuty remains open until May 9. If you are very emotional, don’t worry, you’re in alignment! If you cannot find the words to say how you feel, or, the other extreme, you bloody well have no problem finding the right words (!!!), you are also in alignment. If you cannot find the words, you are experiencing a block in this flow of energy. This alignment has everything you need to find healing and self love, which will enable and empower you to find the BEST way to express yourself. Getting anger and using emotions to express self, yet hurting others is not the way of an enlightened being. These are the kinds of HUGE shifts and changes we are all experiencing. Maybe it worked for the past 25 years, but no longer. We must all ascend and go up the spiral. With the Portal Open, now is the time to examine your old ways and patterns of communication, and make sure that in all of your expressions, there are elements of self love, healing for self and others in your communications. This does not mean to remain quiet if you are afraid of causing conflict. This means finding the courage to express even difficult things, with love for self and others at all times. ESPECIALLY in the middle of adversity or confrontation. Just try it as an experiment. Do  not continue to do what you have always done. Remember Heru and Uranus, cosmic forces of the Rebel, the Redeemer, and ever Victorious. Conscious Communications.

Dua NebtHet KuUrKu Neptune in Sidereal Aquarius. This configuration has been with us for along time: from 2012, thru 2026, so we still have time to get this right. This brings us “some deep awareness of Oneness; a desire for emotional attunement to higher dimensions; and a dissolution of certain boundaries. They can urge us to escape reality in either a constructive or destructive way, depending on our individualized and collective state of evolution.” from trans4mind.com

STAY WOKE MY PEOPLE. This is no time or place to rest your weary head. Keep your Eyes on the Prize: ENLIGHTENMENT! NebtHet is about maintaining Maat Order in your home, space, life, mind day, etc. KuUrKu is about Universal Family, love and harmony, sharing the light and the teachings.

Dua Asar Dua Rephan in Pi Maere: Pluto and Saturn remain in Sidereal Sagittarius. Regeneration, rejuvenation, resurrection thru travel, breaking beyond preconceived notions or concepts. Breaking free of any and all limitations. While at same time, maintaining healthy boundaries in relationships. Traveling for me is always a journey in knowing more about myself. I highly recommend taking little trip, even if it is just to get outside of the City for a day, even a few hours. The journey IS the destination. Just being in a different environment can give you a brand new outlook on life. What felt once like prison, you will see as just a container for all of the freedom you have! We need a lil bit of structure to appreciate Life. Otherwise, the Joy would just run together, and we might not appreciate it! LOL! Siriusly, take a lil trip, and when you get back home, you will forget about the yucky feelings you might have been having (remember how challenging that Venus Retrograde Full Moon was? You may still be traumatized! This might not always be comfortable. Because in order to move forward, you must be willing to let go or leave something behind. LOL!

Dua PiCheus M Aspolia. Jupiter is Sidereal Virgo. Expansion and growth will continue as long as we keep planting and nurturing our seeds of good intention for a bright future. Aspolia is about the Divine Mother, nurturing our visions and dreams. Aspolia represents the Seed in the Garden of Life. We nurture our goals by always studying and learning more about ourselves and our desires. Picheus represents positive influence, witnessing consciousness, and this is just what we need now: GOVERNANCE OF EMOTIONS. It’s one thing to say, “I want to create a wellness center and an eco village”. The next step is to learn as much as possible about eco villages and alternative building methods. Keeping your mind focused on your dreams is an excellent way to manifest. Studying always takes you to a higher vibration, and knowledge is crucial to manifestation. Even if you don’t know HOW it will happen, when it does happen, you will be very informed! Just keep tending the Garden of your life, taking care to pull out this nasty weeds of negativity. I am not talking about weeds that are really medicinal herbs, I am talking about this sharp pointy prickly plants that can cut your skin or puncture your tires. NEGATIVE THOUGHTS, DOUBTS, AND FETTERS OF SET.

Dua SET M APIS. Mars in Sidereal Taurus. First reaction was , uh oh, and ouch. Headsrong and Stubborn. LOL!! Hey, but at HeruScopes, there is a gift in every adversity, positive and negative in all things at al  times. Mars in Taurus can mean that our focus, drive and ambition is directed towards our abundance, helping the environment, as in Earth Day, or even personal relationships, as Taurus is ruled by Venus. Lets focus on the positive and let the negative take care of itself. Maybe the positive will take care it. Negative? Lets see, possible having a temper tantrum or melt down with the trash collector or landscaper? Do not even go there, remember, Mercury Retrograde! While the Portal of Djehuty is open, let us be the Enlightened Set, leading the Barque of Ra thru the Journey of the Day. Not allowing our Ego to lead us. No need to work like a slave for your job boss or money. These are not the source of your supply or your abundance, that comes from within you. Visualize yourself as the Goddess Lakshmi, riding on the Celestial Cow, riding our inheritance which is our Abundance, see the abundance all around you and feel the vibrations and the connection. i f you are having financial challenges, change your perspective and the solution will be made clear.

Enjoy your Journey to Strength and Empowerment. Hotep!
