Egyptian Resources...
This site is dedicated to serving as a general resource for students and practitioners of the Western Hermetic Tradition, and as a specific resource for the Alexandrine Temple of the Hermetic Fellowship, located in Portland, Oregon, USA.
This list is provided as an informational resource. Though some truly fine organizations and resources are listed here, not all that are listed are well known to the Hermetic Fellowship. Therefore, the appearance of a group or other resource in this listing does not constitute a recommendation or endorsement by the Hermetic Fellowship. In becoming involved with any group or teacher, the seeker should always exercise his or her reason and intuition. Caveat Quæstor.

All Things Sekhmet “SEKHMET'S STAR TEMPLE OF MAGICK. The journey within the Body of Sekhmet has taken us to many places. In Her Earth Temple we learned about ourselves and who we are by ourselves and in conjunction with other celebrants of the Goddess. In Sekhmet's Moon Temple, we moved from the personal to the transpersonal, making deep connections with our inner being and denizens of the subtler realms. In the Sun Temple, we moved into the solar heart of Sekhmet where we bring our abilities into full consciousness and heal ourselves through the compassionate service of helping others.” |

If you copy any of this information, please be sure to copy the appropriate copyright information as well!! The Children of Ra Temple is still eclectic in background and philosophy, but decidedly Khemetic in focus and pantheon. New pages -- the still-in-progress Book of Ra -- are being added to this site to reflect our current beliefs, techniques and studies.” |

Netjeru Crossings “Welcome to my pages! I just want to say the way I see them is not the way books and other Egyptian groups see the Netjeru. I may not see the Netjeru as other Egyptian groups, but I have total respect for their ways of practice. Just alittle about myself now...where to start? I am a solitary Priest of the Netjeru using the ways of Modern Paganism as my path. My name is Asumut. My soul dates back to the 2nd Egyptian dynasty....what a beautiful time that was, but it will never be the Egypt as I knew then. Most of my lives were in Egypt ranking in all fields from slave to Priest. Someday the homeland will be like it was in the times of great Pharoahs.” |

Egyptian Creation Epic “Harmonized from various versions of the Mythos by Aaron Leitch. When speaking of ancient Khemet (Egypt), it is necessary to remember that we are not speaking of a singular village in a singular time. In fact, we are speaking of two great nations that spanned thousands of years. In this time, there were several dynasties of rulers (not all of them Egyptian) and literally hundreds of varying religions. Each temple had its own patron deity, whose worshippers often regarded as the Supreme God and Creator. The sun-god Re is merely one example, as is Osiris. This is what often makes a study of Egyptian mythology complicated or even utterly confusing. What follows, then, is my own "harmonized" version of the Egyptian creation mythos. It incorporates most of the more popular aspects from various tellings of the story, and I have therefore named it an "epic." Enjoy!” |

Apuleius’ Isis Epiphany “The cult of Isis was one of the most important of the empire wide cults in the later empire, and perhaps its greatest monument is in Lucius Apuleius very strange novel, The Golden Ass.

Isis is here the Queen of Heaven, and principal of all the gods and goddesses. Lucius Apuleius: Metamophoses or The Golden Ass. Book 11, Chap 47.
