Uraeus 😭 (also I'm NOT Normal)

Go Egyptian gods go!

Old man Ra being an old man.

I really like how I drew Horus and Seth in here, a good scale of how far I come from when I was in elementary school. I also try new styles that I have seen on both Deviantart and Tumblr, like the flowy, ethereal/regal, lively look (I'll try to find those artists again if they're still up for refrence)

I freaking LOVE Egyptian Mythology and world history so much, thanks to my favorite show/media, Time Warp Trio, Magic Tree House, Tutenstein (although i only got to watch so few before I ever saw it again ;_; )

Comment if you ever saw these shows/books as well as share your obscure media!

My mother's patience and my father's rage

Reminds me of the time I picked out lps that looked like/reminded me of Egyptian gods

Guys what do we think about LPS set animal

A match of Senet beneath the first morning light. The Moon God and his pupil share a quiet story as they await the rise of the Sun, readying themselves for a new day of duty. Beyond the gates of Aker, another battle has passed.

Oh my god I didn't think youd answer

Also didn't know if I should hide these in the tags but I really LOVE uour HCS for me and honestly I had similar once but they just migrated in kinda . Different aspects different gods. Like Thoth was a shy nerd stereotype then he kinda was beep-boop business business no emotions no jokes. (but THIS just became a Maat thing. I imagine her to be more unemotional and serious, compared to Thoth. She DOESN'T UNDERSTAND humor. Ra will say "hi hungry I'm dad" and she will run to ask Thoth to add "hungry" as one of his epithets) Like I thought about his relationship with gods that are higher than him (especially Ra) being kinda like Pearl and ____ Diamond if we're talking about him not being able to lie ever and that he was more. Idk faithful than other gods. More serious if we put it that way. Times changed now he's just a sarcastic but serious bastard that loves his job too much and can yell at Ra and other gods if the situation is calling for it.

Okay ramble ramble sorry to be talking about about my headcanons on your post another word I LOVE THEM 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 ALWAYS READY TO READ MORE 👍👍👍👍👍

I need to know your Ra and Thoth headcanons 👁 (if you have any (please (also don't delete this blog I love your posts too much....)))

love LOVE LOVE talking about Ra and i do have some ideas for Thoth i cannot believe i haven't made hc's for him yet so, this will mostly be about Thoth. for more Ra, please check my hc masterlist.

ok. let's start at the START! egyptian myth, imo, is even more difficult than greek myth to trace down. everybody seems to have their own myths about things... like for some people, Atem was the ultimate creator, then for others it was Ptah. who even knows.

so with Thoth, generally speaking, he doesn't have any clearly identified parents, it's either like. he ALWAYS existed or Ra made him.

to me, if you just spawned at the beginning of time, then you're kinda like. ancient and primordial, but my version of Thoth is not like that.. so i personally think he was made by Ra without any mother goddess, just sculpted from the earth or something. this is the same as Hathor and Sekhmet and Bastet, etc.

technically speaking, i guess they'd be siblings, but i think their bonds are more complicated (?) than just traditional brothers and sisters, and i don't think they were "raised" together if you can even call it that.

i think Thoth was Ra's second "child", after Ma'at, who was made "in place" of chaos. and i think, like Ma'at, he was born fully grown.

because he's fully grown, i think there wasn't a "socialising" period for him? like. Thoth, to me, is a numbers guy. a logic guy. everything is equations to him, it's not emotional.

Ra creates Thoth to be a knowledge-keeper. he's supposed to be... in a sense... omniscient. all-knowing. story-wise, i think being omniscient doesn't make too much sense because like, if he knew everything, why didn't he stop Set from chopping up Osiris? so i think that, in the regular form that Thoth takes to walk in Egypt amongst men and gods, his powers are sort of... limited.

i think he has some sort of deeper, more chaotic form in which he truly can access every bit of knowledge he has.

there is an item in Egyptian mythology called the book of Thoth. actually, lore says it contains spells to perceive the gods and to talk to animals, but in my opinion, it is actually a book which contains all the knowledge of the universe.

myth says that the book was entrusted by Thoth to the ghost of a mortal scribe, Neferkaptah, never to be used by another mortal, and i think any other gods. so i think that this book is directly linked to Thoth's conscience.

therefore, when Thoth interacts with other gods, i think he doesn't really know everything because all his knowledge is locked away in the Book. but he's still super smart and can figure things out. he locks away the knowledge i think because it is too much information to be handled by any one god, and it interferes with fate.

lore usually says that Thoth travels with Ra on his barque, but i disagree with this. i believe Thoth remains in Egypt as an advisor to the king-- he has advised Geb, and Osiris... begrudingly Set for his temporary take-over, and eventually Horus. he's the go-to on matters concerning the law and counsel.

linked to this, his wife is Ma'at, who is justice. i actually think of her as being a lot of fun.. she's lively and basically the opposite of Thoth,,, but i think they are united by their strong sense of morality, and they are both as old as each other-- therefore they have been companions for the longest time and know each other intimately.

in saying that, Thoth has gone on the barque many times. but i just think he's more useful as an advisor to the pharaoh.

when Set takes over Egypt, i believe Thoth does everything within the law to help Isis. lore says he gives her the spell to revive Osiris.

but while Nephthys and Isis fight because they don't think Set is good for Egypt and also because he's a bit of a bitch, Thoth's motivations are purely logical-- Set acquires the throne illegally and needs to be reprimanded.

Thoth would not lie. not even to Set.

uhmmm. anyways. so yeah. that is Thoth in my head!!!

Forgot to post this in morning but wtvvrr

Hephaestus request

He's got special hair ladies. Somehow, they figured out how to tame his hair a bit.
