Hathor Pen and ink on paper 2024
Called by her original name, 'Hwt Hrw' translates to House of Horus as according to myths, she is the mother or consort of Horus. First, Hathor is the goddess of fertility symbolized by the cow horns and correspondence with the Sycamore tree (the white sap of the tree reminds of breast milk). She is also a protector of women and a goddess of beauty and sensuality. Hathor's energy is found in the sound of a lyre, the movement of a woman's hips dancing or the act of wearing make-up. She is also part of a goddess triad together with Sekhmet and Bastet as they can be interpreted as 3 sides of the same archetype. There are available prints of Hathor for your walls and altars on my website.
