This is sort of a hybrid combination of a learning source and an actual blog. I am a Kemetic witch, and while I know things— I definitely don't know it all. Here I share my journey with the Kemetic experience, and lots of information for you to use as a starting point. All art you see in this blog is done by me unless specificed otherwise.
Introduction to the Mandjet of Ra, A Personal Blog
🐾 𓋹𓍑𓋴 🐾
Welcome to The Mandjet of Ra — a personal blog exploring my journey and beliefs as a Kemetic practitioner.
First off, I want to be upfront about something: This blog is very biased. It's not meant to be the end-all, be-all informational source on Kemeticism. Instead, think of it as an invitation to explore, learn, and grow. I’ll be sharing what I know, what I’ve learned, and what resonates with me — but always keep in mind that Kemeticism is complicated and deeply personal.
The belief system of ancient Egypt was far from rigid or dogmatic. It’s important to understand that the Egyptians didn’t have a set doctrine like many modern religions do. Ancient Egyptian religion wasn’t cut and dry — it evolved.
Egypt had countless gods, each evolving in different towns, villages, and regions. In the pre-dynastic period, before Narmer unified Upper and Lower Egypt, many of these places had their own gods who explained the same natural phenomena in slightly different ways. When Egypt unified, so did many of these deities, growing more complex as they absorbed local lore and became what we now know as the great gods of the Egyptian pantheon.
For example, Egypt was home to numerous celestial cow goddesses. Eventually, Hathor emerged as a dominant figure, absorbing the traits of other similar goddesses. This happened a lot, so nothing was set in stone.
The key thing you have to know about this belief system is that the ancient Egyptians were okay with accepting multiple explanations for the same phenomena. They had no issue with the idea that two gods might represent similar things or even go by different names and forms in different places.
They understood that their gods were more than just one image or one name. The gods were manifestations of concepts, and the physical form they took was simply a way for us, humans, to relate to them.
So, when you’re diving into Kemeticism, don’t feel like you need to pick one rigid answer. You have to be open to the fact that there are many valid interpretations and stories. Ancient Egyptians embraced this, and as modern Kemetics, we need to do the same. Maybe the gods simply enjoy taking on different appearances—after all, they are gods!
What to Expect from The Mandjet of Ra
This blog will focus on my interpretation of Kemeticism — how I understand the gods, their stories, and their role in my life. It’s a correct path in Kemeticism, but it's just one of many. Think of it as a starting point for your own journey.
In my personal practice, of what I share here, my beliefs about creation are a blend of the Atum creation myth from Heliopolis and the Ogdoad creation myth from Hermopolis. A lot of my personal practices incorporate elements from the Heliopolitan mythos, and I draw heavily from the stories and deities of Heliopolis, where a lot of what we know about Egyptian mythology was centralized, and I put these together as a personal interpretation.
I won’t be covering everything (Trust me, this belief system is way more complex than I’m making it sound here) but I do hope to inspire you to do your own research.
I think there's a widespread misunderstanding about what it really means to pray to a god (or gods). While I run a Kemetic-based page, what I’m about to say applies broadly to many religious paths that involve a relationship with divine beings. One of the most common misconceptions is that prayer is simply about asking a god for something and hoping it will magically come true. That’s not how it works. In truth, it’s never worked that way.
People often wonder why their prayers go unanswered, but the reality is that prayer isn't about commanding or expecting divine intervention without effort. In my view, it’s actually quite entitled to think a god—an entity far beyond us, should fulfill our requests just because we asked. A god is not a genie, nor are they obligated to grant your wishes. Prayer, instead, should be seen as an invitation. It’s a request for collaboration, not a demand. You’re essentially saying, “Work with me on this.” not, “Do this for me.” You are still responsible for the action, the effort, the commitment. The divine may support you, but you must take the first step.
I like to think of it this way:
Imagine you have a garden. It's your space, your life, your potential. You can plant whatever seeds you want: dreams, goals, intentions, desires. But a god isn’t going to plant those seeds for you. You must till the soil, sow the seeds, and tend to them. That’s your role. When you pray, it’s like turning to a god and saying, “Will you help me water this?”
You’re asking for support, not replacement. Think of the god as having a “green thumb”, a divine skillset that can enhance your efforts. You ask a specific god because they resonate with the kind of seed you’re planting. Perhaps they govern love, success, healing, or wisdom.
From that point on, it becomes a shared effort. You nurture the plant, and the god helps shape the conditions so that it has the best chance to grow. Maybe they align events in your favor, bring people into your life, or open doors you wouldn’t have seen otherwise. But you still have to walk through those doors. You must remain active in the process. And when your effort bears fruit—when your prayer manifests, you’ve experienced the core truth behind the phrase “You reap what you sow.”
Not because the gods handed it to you, but because they walked with you as you brought it into being. That’s the essence of divine partnership. Prayer isn’t a transaction, it’s a relationship built through effort, reverence, and trust.
Hey all! Sorry I haven't posted much lately but I've been quite busy working on something. I'm proud to announce KemNet, the pocket kemetic altar! This allows you to always have your altar, and gives options for those who can't worship openly! Get it here! https://childrenofanubis.weebly.com/downloads.html
Broken hearted? Feel like you cannot control your emotions or like your heart has turned away from you? I created this heka to soothe and strengthen the connection between the khet, or physical body, and the ib, or heart.
As with all heka, I recommend cleansing yourself beforehand. Speak the words aloud, and allow your magic and strength to be behind each word.
Words to be said by the magician:
"Let my heart not stand against me,
Let it not be repulsed from it's desires.
Let my heart stand with you, O' Gods!
Let my heart be strengthened in me, O' Gods!
Let my heart not speak against me,
Let it no longer cause me pain.
Let my heart stand with you, O' Gods!
Let my heart stand with me, O' Gods!
The magician may also be inclined to give offerings to their ib, to please it and give it strength. In this, they may approach it as a separate entity, to be pacified. I recommend offering water before presenting additional offerings, to cool the ib first. Food offerings may be 'reverted' and eaten, and any others may be set aside in an altar or shrine space.
Words to be said by the magician during offerings:
"O my heart, O' my ib,
I bring you water,
May it cool you, may it purify you!
May you stand with me once more!
O' my heart, O' my ib,
I bring you [name of offerings],
May it please you, may it bring you joy!
May you stand with me once more!"
The Nejeru and the Presidential Election in America
Hey everyone, I know I’ve been a bit dead recently. Sorry about that! I haven’t had much new art to share lately, though I’m hoping to work on a drawing of Ammut sometime this weekend. Honestly, I think I’m done trying to stick with weird blog format. It just feels too forced and doesn’t align with what I want this space to be lol.
Im not going to give you the "Oh, not to get political, but..." stuff here. Yes, yes to get political. I am going to get political because, frankly, this is my blog, my space, and I can express my thoughts freely. If you don’t fw with that, you’re more than welcome to leave. I genuinely can’t stand Trump supporters. This isn't the place for you.
Yes, both Trump and Kamala have massive flaws, but let’s face it, American presidential elections have always been choosing between two evils. But the fact that an actual felon managed to win just blows my mind. It’s appalling to think that people are willing to overlook his blatant disrespect toward women and the LGBTQ community (both of which I’m a part of). Sure I might lose my rights, but at least gas will be cheaper... /s
This election has been a heavy blow to me, and honestly my soul. I’ve been pouring my heart into prayers and spells, asking the Nejeru for guidance. And yeah, I’ll admit, it stung a lot when it felt like my prayers fell on deaf ears to them. I’ve spoken to others in my faith and even folks who follow other ancient pantheons, and I’m not alone in feeling upset and betrayed.
So, I had to take a step back. I needed to breathe, to distance myself from everything—my work, my faith. But that doesn’t mean I lost my belief in the Nejeru. They’ve been there for me countless times, and I know that. Instead of letting my frustration consume me, I chose to reflect on it. Why couldn’t they intervene this time? Or, maybe, why wouldn’t they? And after some time to think, I eventually reconnected with my faith.
One thing I know is that we need to see the Nejeru in the context of their origins— Ancient Egypt. If you didn’t know, every Pharaoh was essentially a dictator. Even under divine guidance, bad things still happened. Some years, the Nile didn’t flood. Sometimes, things just went wrong. The Nejeru aren’t like the God of Christianity or Catholicism. They’re not “all-powerful.” If they were, they wouldn’t need a pantheon of over a hundred gods to manage different forces. They’re incredibly powerful, yes, but there are limits to what they can influence.
A major factor is the concept of free will, something that was deeply important to the Nejeru. They believed in allowing humans to make their own choices, to live their lives as they wished, even with rules in place. As Ra said in the Coffin Texts (1130): "I made every man like his fellow; and I did not command that they do wrong. It is their hearts that disobey what I have said. This is one of the deeds."
No god controls our souls. They don’t dictate our choices. Sure, they may judge us after death, but what we do in this life is entirely up to us. I highly recommend checking out “The Dispute of a Man with His Ba”, a translated story that implies much about free will in Ancient Egypt. When it comes to elections, that is free will. The Nejeru aren’t going to intervene in a democratic process where individuals are making their own choices. Whether people are misinformed or not, it’s still their decision. The outcome, as frustrating as it might be, is not something that the Nejeru can or should control. Doing so would mean infringing on the free will of millions of people. So, please, do not put the blame on the Nejeru. They’re not responsible for the choices people make. But we can lean on them for guidance through these hard times. Take care of each other. Take care of yourselves, check in on your friends, and remember, you are not a burden to anyone. Let’s focus on how we can support one another through this. Sending love and strength to you all.
Behold, my most well preforming drawing on my instagram AND reddit. This was a little personal project I decided to draw since I had never really attempted to make a creative piece with the Nejeru at this point. (The pieces I had drawn were all redraws from book of the dead)
This piece was inspired by a very specific depiction found below , titled "Set, upon the prow of the solar barque, repels Apophis from 21st Dynasty Book of the Dead".
"Now after a while he will turn his eye against Re, and a stoppage will occur in the Sacred Bark and a great vision among the crew, for he will swallow up seven cubits of the great waters; Seth will project a lance of iron against (Apep) and will make him vomit up all that he has swallowed."
Ohh Bast... She isn't actually among the deities I am devoted to, but I thought drawing Her would be nice! This isn't a new piece, I finished it quite a while ago. Loads of people loved it on Insta!
A doodle page I did for Taweret! I don't have much to say, She gives me the feeling of when I used to bury myself into my mother's side because I wanted safety and protection. That is what Taweret reminds me of, in a good way.
She must of loved this art, because soon after my feed on instagram became flooded with reels about hippos, especially of that baby moo deng. (She is so cute)
Thanks for the reels Taweret 🥰
Im glad she still liked it, because admittedly I wasn't using a a refrence of a hippopotamus and kinda went based on memory of what hippos look like. Could probably be more accurate, buuut.. oh well..
On another note, thank you for your support on my first modern rewrite about Sekhmet! I know in reality 20 notes isn't a lot, but I usually post on Instagram and I am lucky for any content i make to get past 12 likes, so thanks ^^
Im currently working on a modern rewrite of "The Contendings of Horus and Seth". Im very busy so might post it this weekend or somewhere next week!
Anpu is my main man iykwim my patron. I find He loves when I give devotion to Him in the form of art (He likes any of the arts really) so I put together a little doodle page for him.
Is it a grimore?? Maybe a mix of grimore/book of shadows. Im not really looking to write this post in usual blog form because its really short and casual.
I have journals, but none of them felt very right to me. I ordered a new one and it arrived yesterday. I wish I could take a photo, but I am very honestly lazy and it is dim in here, so I decided to hunt down the exact one I bought.
Made by Urban Outfiters.
And man, not to lick the boots of a company.. but holy crap is it good quality. I actually own a couple other leather journals from them. Really blows my mind because they're pretty cheap compared to others.
It's nice and small, a little smaller than your average book. very tidy for me to tuck away somewhere. Of course, I probably won't share anything I put in the journal here, because these are meant to be more private. But just wanted to share my excitement ^^ I will work on it during the weekend.
This is a translated and modern retelling of the story of Sekhmet, more specifically the story of the (almost) complete slaughter of mankind from The Book of The Heavenly Cow. I rewrote this myself using translated sources, aiming to make this reading more understandable.
Notice:
• The original translation has the name "Re", but it means the same as Ra.
• Some things I could not translate easier without removing most of it's meaning, so I did not.
• This is a retelling geared towards entertainment— I add a bit more personality and atmosphere to make the story flow together understandably. Nothing I added strays from the original.

When Ra finished making His great creations, He took upon the form of man and ruled over all of mankind and the gods for many years. In His reign, Egypt prospered immensely, and great harvests were brought forth. But in the form of man, Ra grew old— His flesh of gold and His bones of silver, with hair made of genuine lapis lazuli. His kingship was no longer feared, and many laws were broken. Mankind had grown to have such audacity under His rule that they conceived of a wicked plot to overthrow Him.
His Majesty Ra heard of this plan, and His anger was like no other. He was utterly appalled at their disobedience, and so He turned to his advisors.
"Please summon to me my Eye, Shu, Tefnut, Geb, and Nut. Tell Nun from which I came to attend with His courtiers." He ordered. "You must bring them to my palace in secrecy, so mankind shall not see them. Their advice is greatly needed in this matter."
And so they were brought to Him right away, and these gods respectfully bowed in His Majesty Ra's presence. Nun awaited patiently for him to state his great trouble.
"Tell us of this situation, Ra." Nun encouraged.
"Oh ancestorial gods, Oh Nun from whom I was born from, look upon mankind which I created. These men have been plotting against me! Hear what they say of me, tell me what you would do about such a thing. I will do nothing violent to mankind until I have heard your thoughts of this." Ra spoke.
"Ra, what blasphemy! I ask of you to stay on your throne. Mankind has become rebellious, but I know they must still fear you. Turn your Eye upon them in the form of your daughter, Hathor. She will rightfully smite those traitors." Nun answered. Just as He did so, Ra had become aware of His people beginning to flee into the desert, their hearts fearful of what Ra might do with such a suggestion.
And so Nun continued.
"No eye is as capable as yours to bring divine retribution. Send it to them in the form of Hathor!" He proclaimed.
So from Ra's Eye His daughter Hathor came into being. She roamed the lands of Upper and Lower Egypt and slaughtered those who had plotted against Ra, taking immense delight in the destruction She brought upon mankind. She bathed in their blood, and killed everything that moved.
Ra watched from his throne as She did so, before summoning His daughter to stand before him.
"I Welcome your return, beloved Hathor! Have you accomplished what you were sent out to do?" Ra asked.
"As you live for me, I have indeed done what you have commanded. I have overpowered mankind, and it brings joy to my heart." Hathor rumbled. And so Ra approved. "That is good. I may gain power once more over them as king. Hold off on your murder."
But it was then the great lionness-headed Sekhmet was made from Hathor. She did not listen to Her father, and continued to kill across the lands of Egypt. The Nile ran dark red, and Sekhmet waded in the blood starting from Heracleopolis. Ra began to have sudden pity on mankind, even if they had rebelled against His kingship. But nobody was able to stop Sekhmet in Her bloodshed alone, and Ra knew this would have to be settled a much clever way. Ra called for speedy emissaries swift as shadow, and they were brought to Him, where His Majesty gave them orders.
"Journey to the isle of Elephantine and bring to me as much red ochre as you can carry!"
And they brought such to Him, returning it to the city of Ra by the time it was night. The maidservants of Heliopolis had been grinding barley and brewing beer even before their return. His Majesty appointed the high priest of Ra to pulverize the red ochre and add it to the beer, so that in the moonlight it bore resemblance to the blood of men. It looked indistinguishable from human blood, and seven thousand hebenet-jars of this beer was made. Ra inspected this beer closely at the eve of the day, when Sekhmet planned to journey south and kill greater mankind. The gods came with Ra in curiosity of His wisdom in this plan.
Ra was pleased with this beer, and had them take it to the place where Sekhmet was to be found by dawn. It was still night when the beer was poured out over the fields to the height of three palms.
When Sekhmet came hungrily the following day for the slaughter of men, She instead found the fields flooded with this beer the color of blood, and so She thought it was the blood of men whom She killed. Sekhmet was delighted at this sight, licking her lips before she drank from this liquid. To Sekhmet, She could tell no difference. She returned so drunk that She was unable to recognize the faces of men, and therefore could not kill them. Ra awaited for His daughter to return, welcoming Her warmly.
And so Sekhmet became Hathor once again, and beautiful women came to be in Imau.
Do you know how many gods were in ancient Egypt? A damn lot! Over 2,000. I do intend to make more personal, in depth posts about the gods I worship and devote myself to in particular, but to do that with all the gods found in ancient Egypt is a task impossible– I would have died by the will of Shay by the time I even finished! This list is made up of all the deities I could find, including very earlier and older gods that were local to their area and eventually got a bit absorbed/left behind when a bigger deity took their role. It even includes some demons/spirits. Yes, I am a crazy woman, I will try my best to list every single deity I can find even a sniff of information about. I have put plenty of lesser and forgotten deities on this list, but keep in mind information about them is so scarce that I have put in my own interpretations of the full role that deity had. Some of them had so little information besides their appearance that I decided they weren't worth including much of at all.
I decided to provide small descriptions to let you know about each— it is not meant to go super in depth (though some of them require a bit of it). Please do forgive me if there is a repeat of words.. this list took so long to put together.
Here I used these sources primarily, which are heavily insightful:
The gods and goddesses of Ancient Egypt were an integral part of the people's everyday lives for over 3,000 years. There were over 2,000 dei

Usually depicted wanting to eat the sun, sometimes says the serpent is the original sun god who wants his role back, or just as a beast wanting to devour the sun. On another note, may that vile serpent never succeed!
Aqen - Driver of the Mesketet boat that carries souls to Duat.
Arensnuphis - Companion to the goddess Isis.
Ash - Seems to be a much earlier version of Sutekh, though is depicted a lot less violent— I would personally classify this as a "calmer" aspect of Sutekh. Protector of the western desert and associated to healing. May have been the god of the city of Nebut, now known as Naqada.
Astarte - Goddess of fertility and sexuality.
Aten/Aton - Originally an aspect of Ra before pharoah Akhenaten attempted an early form of monotheism and tried to establish Aten as the sole god and creator of the universe.
Atum - God of the evening sun, end of the day. He is also seen as the first god in cases. Sometimes He is depicted as an aspect of Ra, sometimes as His own thing closely related.

Dedun - God of resources, incense, prosperity, wealth, probably also stored goods.
Denwen - A very old serpent deity surrounded in fire, attempts to kill all of the gods as described in the Pyramid Texts before being stopped by some "king" or deity (I could not find a description of who does this, exactly). Was an intricate figure seen as a threat and the cycle of renewal and destroying the unneeded.
Duamutef - One of the Four Sons of Horus, designated to protect the stomach.
Djed - Believe it or not, the Djed pillars had a deification. Possibly could even count as a form or aspect of Asar for representing His backbone. Represents stability.
Djehuty - Incredibly wise god, master of magic, inventor of the sciences. Lord of documentation and writing, said to of made the system of writing.
Dua - Everywhere I have researched says Dua is the god of toilets and cleanliness, but I have literally not found ANY evidence to even prove this remotely true. I have been informed that the translation of Dua's name is "praise", which has nothing to do with purity or cleansing. Most I can put together is Dua was perhaps(?) god of praise and good word, possibly holds association to the action of giving praise to the divine in prayers.
