You’re pronouncing it wrong, translating an Egyptian Hieroglyphic name like [ *HORUS* ] to English change the pronunciation of the first letter from Arabic (حاء) to English/Latin (H). Why ? Because there’s no letter in English matches the original letter, the closest is H. Another Example is The Female Pharaoh [ *HATSHEPSUT* ] The first letter change in English because there is no specific letter for it in English like in Arabic ! That’s why if you practice Arabic (which currently the official Egyptian language) it gonna be easier to read & translate Egyptian Hieroglyphic scripts, you can’t fully comprehend an iconic civilization as long as you’re pronouncing it inaccurately !

That reconstruction sketch of the old temple is interesting... did more egyptian deities have similar temples around that time? It seems to actually have some similarity with the concept of the tabernacle, an enfenced courtyard with the holy set back inside that... it's no exact match, but it would hint to a whole culture of similar sanctuaries over the region... or could do that...

How do people tell apart Horus from a falcon-shaped Ra? When are they separate and when the same? Or in other related istances like eye of Ra and eye of Horus. Did one rose in mythological prominence before the other or were they hybridised together from separate Egyptian beliefs? This part of Egyptian mythology always confused me.

I've been into Egyptian mythology since elementary school, and I like to look at the centerpiece of its teachings as a precursor to the Christian trinity, centered around the gods Amun-Ra (the Creator), Thoth (the Preserver), and Osiris (the King of the Dead.) I'm also aware of the similar Hindu analogy (with Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva as their respective counterparts.) And there's also another trinity of Egyptian gods, symbolizing the in-between transitions among birth, life, and death: Horus (to give humans the breath of life), Seth (to grant humans the will to live and conquer in order to die), and Anubis (the one who leads humans into a new life after death.) Depending on the cult, I can see Amun-Ra being swapped out for Re-Horakhty, and Horus being swapped out for Ptah. There's still so much we don't know about ancient Egyptian religion, and it's fun to speculate on what could have been based off of what archeologists have already uncovered.

It is written in the Book of Revelations that none shall ascend by way of the Book of the Beast, except the Beast himself and the one who shall follow him (his magickal son). This is the most important key to arriving at the angelic interpretation of this amazing book.

mmm while you are both right, it seems to me you just found a small piece of a much bigger puzzle. The "descent into the underworld" is an almost universal mytheme, with other major examples being the goddess Isis (another "Queen of the underworld") and goddesses Amaterasu and Izanami of Japanese lore. While the most common explanation of such similar but far away stories relies on cultural diffusion, a newer and much more interesting interpretation is that they originated independently by witnesses of the same celestial events. You won't find such interpretations in main mythological circles, but if you want to learn more about it I can't recommend enough authors such as David Talbott, Dwardu Cardona and Ev Cochrane. True pioneers of a different vision of what mythology actually is.

@@giacomostefanoni7634 Oh, if I was unclear on such, I am not refuting that it is a reoccurring mythological motif; I was specifically refuting Aphrodite (or Inanna/Ishtar/Astarte) as a cognate for Persephone (whose cognate is instead, I argue, Ereshkigal). Amaterasu would be a bit troublesome as a cognate going by the astronomical/astrological side of things, given that she is a Sun goddess to Inanna/Ishtar/Astarte/Aphrodite's Venus (and imo, Ereshkigal/Persephone's Mars), nor does she have any myths about descending to the underworld (the closest equivalent being her brief withdrawal to a cave, which was _not_ Yomi). Granted, the archetypal roles associated with each planet do sometimes vary cross-culturally, or even change over time (for another solar example, I think Apollo was originally a Martian god, rather than Solar). Isis... is a can of worms, given how many other goddesses' functions she eventually absorbed. She is anything _but_ a single, clean archetype.

In the ancient world the focus was on more people and a richer people, they were being practical. We see in Bible, Torah be fruitful and multiply, other religions had similar views.

it's complicated, as, at least in the Old Testament, we don't have any straightforward prohibition against homosexuality, it's a later interpretation of some passages (leviticus and Sodom and Gomorrah most famously) that has been put into question after a more scrupulous analysis in our day and age. I am no theologist, but the current line of thought is that many of what have been interpreted as bans of homosexuality are actually referring to either religious prostitution or sexual slavery, which are in my opinion way more worthy of God's attention.

This is certainly an interesting topic, especially the relation between Horus and Seth. Recently I've learned with suprise from one of the videos by History with Cy (amazing channel about ancient history), that Pharaoh Peribsen of the 2nd dynasty identified himself with Seth, giving himself a Seth-related title instead of the traditional Horus name. His successor, Khasekhemwy, was apparently giving equal reverence to both gods.

Horus the widow’s son, the God of Light, the God of the dawn, the light bringer and god of all initiations.

Really really full explanation- loved this. But you forgot to mention that the nemes headdress worn by pharaohs are supposed to emulate Horus and his head of feathers.

I would argue that the Wedjat is also meant to include a reference to Ra. The literal eye is usually always depicted as a singular disk, rather than including a separation between iris and pupil. This was meant to be interpreted as a typical sun disk, and used to reference the abstract power of Ra, or the Source. In this, I think it important to keep the distinction that Ra acted more as the preeminent framework for which "The Nine" were then able to act upon and within.

As always... Excellent! ❤️💡 Do. Not. Stop. !

It’s one of the events of Horus vs. Seth, where Seth challenges Horus to a boat race using stone boats. Horus cheats and Seth gets mad and turns into an angry hippo 🤣.

Very well done. Thanks.

Horus the Egyptians god is said to be born on dec 25 of of the virgin ISIS his father osiris was a builder Horus was also said to be child teacher

Wow, the funerary inscriptions from ordinary, non-Royal Egyptians are just strikingly gorgeous. Maybe my favorite art I've seen from Ancient Egypt? Can't believe I haven't seen them before.

Wonderful presentation!

You mean Zeitgeist? That movie was trash. As someone familiar with various mythologies, I immediately knew they were lying about most of their info. It's amazing how many people took that movie at face value with no further investigation.

@@franciscoscaramanga9396 Oh yes, totally. I remember being in my early 20s when I saw that and at first fell into a bit of a "better be safe and believe than be sorry" mindset, which is one of the ways cults can reel people in. I think what helped me out was realizing how emotionally manipulated I felt right afterwards, so I kept one foot in reality. Eventually, I rejected all the conspiracy BS when I had a few more life experiences on leadership activities (concluding that even larger systems would be way too difficult to maintain with routine meetings and amending trials when faced with Murphy's Law). Meanwhile, I realized how that documentary's claims about Horus and Jesus really omitted some crucial historical contexts like how Saturnalia coinciding with Christmas would fit in.

@@cuckoophendula8211 It's good you realized that. I used to believe in chemtrails until I realized that, in order for that to be true, everyone in the aero industry, including every private in the Airforce, would have to be in on it and actively lying about it. A useful dalliance with foolishness, because it made me make sure I can prove what I believe. The big thing for me with Zeitgeist was when they compared Dionysus with Jesus. The Horus bit I could've chalked up to error, and the Mithras part I wasn't familiar enough to discredit, but when they got to Dionysus I was like, "Wait... What?!" And that's when I knew the whole thing was a lie. I tried to tell the friend who recommended it to me about the problems with it, but people like that just believe what they want to believe.

Could be worse. I learned most of my Egyptian myth from the Kane chronciles. Accurate in some ways, but it’s YA book so Riordan had to change some details up a bit to get it suitable for the age.

The part about Horus taking incarnations of different Pharaohs reminded me of the Hindu god Vishnu a little! Vishnu is believed to come to the earth in his different avatars, some of his most popular avatars being the god Ram and some of my favorites! The god Krishna, Narasimh, and the sage/guru Parashuram
