Hathor The Sky Deity

Hathor the sky deity, 'the great one of many names'. Hathor had two sides to her personality. She was the goddess of motherhood, love, sexuality, beauty, joy, and music. This was the softer and more nurturing side of her personality. But she was also the vengeful protector of Ra and the goddess who helped souls transition to the afterlife. This dual aspect of Hathor was crucial since the ancient Egyptians considered it the epitome of femininity. Her name translates to 'House of Horus', and while not widely known now, she was one of the most important deities of ancient Egypt. Some of the few names of Hathor: Lady of the West // Hand of God // Hathor Mistress of the Desert. Hathor Mistress of Heaven // The Primeval Goddess // Lady of the Holy Country. The Distant Goddess (shared with Sekhmet and Bastet) // The Foremost One in the Barque of Millions. Lady of Stars // Lady of the Southern Sycamore // Lady Turquoise (new ring)?
