@theheartroad has just done, another, reading for me. And it was fantastic as always.
You guys this blog literally warmed my heart. Their reading for me was... intense and I’m still really stunned by it and trying to digest all the information from it. I cannot thank them enough. Their readings have always been highly accurate for me and gosh... there is just... no words. It lined up with my own personal readings, but on such a higher level than I can achieve right now.
I aspire to reach their level of experience and skill.
Want a better reading than I can give you for free? Check them out. Their readings are next level and worth every penny. They offer 3 card, and 6 card readings-- more than I usually do!
Thanks again, @theheartroad you have no idea how much this means to me.

For offerrings, he likes spicy cheetos and coca cola. If you drink beer, there’s always beer… As for talking with him, just be honest. Don’t bullshit. Be polite! That’s really it. He’s not gonna bite. At least I don’t think. You seem pretty nice and not like someone he’d bite at.
aksjdgkallkhkjljsakld the hilarity behind this is that spicy cheetos and coca cola are my literal favorite snacks. This works perfectly, thank you!!
Hello, Everyone! In November ( I believe), I entered the drawing for @anaputuwet’s Kemetic Deity Exchange 2017 (#kde2k17 on tumblr). The original post for the Kemetic Deity Exchange c…
Here is my (late) entry for the Kemetic Deity Exchange 2017!
Many thank-you’s to @anaputuwet for organizing the event, and to @taqerisenu for the devotional task prompt!
Me: I am going to single-handedly support and cheerlead and nurture every struggling person on this site SO HELP ME....
Me: And like, within reason, because I am a limited being and self care is super important-- not just for me, but also in setting a good example of sustainability.
Omg I'd love to hear what you'd say about Set and HSA 's relationship! If you're willing to share. :D I'm pretty sure HSA is the "Horus" I've interacted with and makes up Antewy with Set. For me at least. :D
Here’s a post I made about them a while ago!
And some further UPG as inspired by the post about Set and Heru-Wer: I agree that HSA, while still a war god in his own right, is more centered around kingship, society, rightful authority, and the ideals of righteousness or ma’at in theory and in practice. He likes for things to be pretty, symmetrical, in a word, nice. This is contrast, but also in harmony, with Set’s balls-to-the-wall, pragmatic, and sometimes lackadaisical (as Heru would put it, “irresponsible”) attitude and approach. When they’re together they’re often disagreeing, but I’ve heard them come to be convinced by the other as often as, if not more often than, I’ve heard them just devolve into more and more heated argument and testosterone-laden belligerent sexual tension. They have the potential to even each other out very well, Heru keeping Set from going ‘too far’, and Set pushing Heru to consider different or more extreme ideas or measures than Heru may be willing to on his own. Together they create balance, an attitude or entity (in the case of Antywey) that is the ‘master of both worlds’, able and willing to respond to any situation with the needed order or chaos, or both.
Their personal relationship, as far as I’ve seen it, is dynamic and fluid. It could be because they’re my patrons and my primary “role” in kemetic practice is all about their relationship, their myths, their rituals and so on, so I see several different versions of them. I’ve felt their deep hate for each other based on differences that can feel irreconcilable, based on the horrible things they did to one another over the years. I’ve felt Set’s guilt for taking so much from Heru, his defiance about his choices and why he made them despite the pain they’ve caused, his affection for Heru, his admiration for the things Heru can do or understand better than he can, his frustration with the ways in which he’s subjugated to Heru, his sense of competition and enjoyment of that competition. And I’ve felt many of the same emotions toward Set, from HSA (likely because in many ways, Set was my first real enemy too, and is now one of my two closest friends/allies as my patron, much the same way that HSA is eventually reconciled and even syncretized with Set).
They hate each other, they love each other, they’re always at each other’s throats and always trying to support the other, in their own weird way. I’ve definitely always felt that they both understand each other in some ways better than anyone else can, simply by virtue of having spent so long fighting -seeing one another at their cruelest, their most vicious, weakest and most desperate- and finding ways to reconcile and settle their differences when necessary, even looking at each other with softness at times. It just depends on the time of day, lol.

Edit (6/25/2020):
“Way before the late Second Millennium BCE Contendings of Horus and Set, where Horus was only the passive victim of Set’s predations, we have the original Third Millennium BCE myth, where the relationship between Horus and Set was reciprocal, though not necessarily any more consensual.” (Göttinger Miszellen)
“As for his role as a friend of the dead, it was believed that “Horus purifies and Set strengthens, and Set purifies and Horus strengthens” the deceased while the backbone of the deceased becomes the backbone of Set and Set has “joined together my neck and my back strongly, and they are even as they were in the time that is past; may nothing happen to break them apart.“ (Caroline Seawright)

Iconography (x x x x x)
Set and Horus carry Osiris together, Set assists in Osiris’ resurrection (Te Velde)
“Bringing up had become necessary because the cosmos had become disordered through the untimely birth of Seth. The Osiris hymn of Amenmose relates, that Horus was not presented to the gathering of the gods by his mother until he was sufficiently equipped physically and mentally: strong of arm, firm of heart. Horus had to learn and win adult divine life through sad experience. The quarrel of Horus and Seth, who originated accidentally, but is now a determining factor in reality, was inevitable.” (Te Velde)
“The law is on the side of Horus, the power lies with Seth. Law without power is weak, power without dangerous law and leads to inhuman conditions.” (Helmut Brunner)
Hey. Hope you are doing okay. One of your posts said you are stressed and also things you usually like are less enjoyable right now. I get that. I'm sorry a bit of that too right now... I like and appreciate you though. Your resources and academic research is absolutely great and helpful to those of us who don't know where to start. I hope things get better soon for you. Take care and good wishes!
The less enjoyable thing was from an art piece from while ago, but the feeling was pretty strong last night.
Thank you for your kind words. You’re such a kindhearted person and everytime I go in my shrine I’m reminded of your kindness and our mutual love for our god Sutah.
You take care too, and thank you for your kind words friend!
