THOTH

Thoth or Tehuti (Djehuti) as he was known in ancient Egypt was the Ibis headed god of knowledge and right reasoning. He presided over time, analysis, and progress. He is considered a master teacher who initiates aspirants on the spiritual path of wisdom. Thoth is strongly associated with the Moon in ancient Egyptian lore and therefore his energy stimulates the imagination which fosters creative urges and psychic vision or foresight. Thoth individuals are versatile by nature. They are "answer people" who generally prefer to run the show from behind the scenes. Thothites are great organizers but not necessarily finishers and this is because they can be dissuaded easily by a logical argument. Others often seek Thoth out when they need sound advice and answers to problems. Pessimism and procrastination are the downfall of those born under Thoth. The memory of an elephant and the ability to handle crisis are among the gifts of this sign. The star SPICA is assigned to this energy. People born under the influence of this star are often brilliant with a scientific mind. Certainly not everyone can be born brilliant but his star suggests that there is usually a hidden talent or skill that is extraordinary.

HORUS

Horus or Heru as he was known in ancient Egypt is the falcon headed god of the light/the rising sun. His energy is connected with risk taking, enterprise, and challenge. The myth of Horus surrounds a risky battle with the destroyer god Set who slew Osiris, the father of Horus. During this battle, Horus lost an eye which according to legend became a protective talisman due to the intervention of Thoth who found it and became the spiritual preceptor of it.* The battle of Horus and Set Horus is believed to represent the ongoing balancing of good and evil in the Universe. Horus individuals are good natured, considerate and highly protective of their loved ones. Horus people strive to get things done which they do with great aplomb. They are “people smart” and know how to skillfully maneuver their way around the block, the boss, and the bedroom. Optimism and a humanitarian streak are the gifts of this sign. Stubbornness, obstinacy, and lack of realism are the downfall of this sign. The star assigned to this energy is Zuben Elgenubi. It grants social skill and group involvement that tends towards reform or politics. The temptation for personal gain or power should be avoided so personal energies can flow positively.

*Note: The parts of the Eye add up to the answer 63/64 which in numerology breaks down to the number 1 representing wholeness and all knowing. (The Egyptian Book of the Dead – The Book of Coming Forth by Day by Dr. Muata Abhaya Ashby)

WADJET

Wadjet or Utachat is the cobra goddess of Egypt . The legacy of her royal image is found in the Uraeus which adorns and creates the centerpiece of pharaoh’s crown. She is the goddess of wisdom and knowledge. Wadjet individuals are deep and intense people. They are always “thinking” and are adept at calculating the perfect time to exact plans and to “strike” with uncanny accuracy. Like the male god counterpart Thoth, Wadjet individuals are problem solvers and are often approached to apply their wisdom in finding the solutions that have escaped others. Wadjets like money and enjoy material goods and they will work long and tedious hours to supply themselves with what they desire. They are shrewd, self disciplined, and honest. They believe in a greater vision and seek the truth. The gift of Wadjet is loyalty and a good values system. The downfall of Wadjet is cynicism, arrogance and occasional lack of sympathy for others. The star assigned to Wadjet is the Royal star Antares. To the ancient Egyptians, this star represented life and death.

The traits connected to ANTARES are the capability to generate success but only through a series of metaphoric “life and death” circumstances. The individual will go to extremes either positive or negative to achieve goals. Honoring “experience” rather than the thrill of drama is important.

The downfall of Shu energy is a tendency to be unrealistically idealistic and adversely too self conscious about failure which promotes indecision.

Its esoteric meaning is “glorified Soul-enlightened human being.” Phoenix individuals are resilient problem solvers concerned with the conservation of values. They have a great respect for nature.
