Wep Ronpet: The Kemetic New Year

The Kemetic New Year, also known as Wep Ronpet, is the most popular and widely celebrated holidays in Kemeticism. I won't go into details about the how and why of it because this information can be pretty easy to find (such as in this blog post from The Twisted Rope). It's among my favorite times …

Exercise and Spirituality

June was a very eventful month. Many of these events were emotionally intense: drastic increase in COVID-19 cases in the US, daily protests for the Black Lives Matter movement, the resurgence of Hong Kong protests... It is enough to make one feel small in this big world of ours. And yet with all this going …

June: A Month To Look Forward To

I revived this blog only a month ago and already find myself falling behind. My goal is to write at least one blog post a month, which I thought would be easy because I have a few topics already laid out. However, the month of May ended up being the most intense month so far …

Why do you worship?

When I left Kemetic Orthodoxy and took a break from spirituality for a couple of months, I asked myself "Why do I follow a spiritual path?" The knee-jerk response is "To serve and honor the gods," but why do I really choose this lifestyle? I found myself asking this question again when the Norse gods …

The Only Constant in Life is Change

It has been over a year since my last blog post, and my oh my how much has changed since then! Shortly after I wrote my last blog post, I learned I would be becoming a W'ab priest of the Kemetic Orthodox faith. The consecration occurred during the Wep Ronpet retreat, which took place during …

Purity – Kemetic Bloghop: April 2019

Since the time that I wrote my last blog post a couple of months ago, I have been wanting to write another post on purity. But with life being busy (in a good way), I just never sat down to write it. Then it was announced that the Kemetic Bloghop was starting up again, and …

My Senut Shrine

Some conversations have been going around the Kemetic Orthodox community about sharing shrine stories, and I felt it would be fun to talk about my Senut shrine. I have a few shrines, but I decided to just focus on my Senut one: The Djehuty and Hethert statues are the two original statues that I bought …

Regional Gods

I have mentioned regional gods before in my entry where I talk about how Djehuty appears to me, but this is a topic I have been thinking about a lot more in the last couple months. Since I moved, just about all of the Netjeru have felt different to me. I'm still trying to figure …

Shemsu-Ankh

Shortly after I wrote my last post about 3 months ago, my life became very busy and overwhelming--but in a good way! I had been applying for jobs since the beginning of 2018 and, at the end of June, I was finally offered a position! Overall the work is similar to what I have been …

Ten years

On June 14th, 2008, I sat across Hemet(AUS) as she tossed the shells to reveal the results of my Rite of Parent Divination. As she stated the results, my life would be forever changed. I was divined a daughter of Djehuty, beloved of Hethert-Sekhmet. I knew the Kemetic Orthodox faith was my home, so I …
