Note: it’s been a hell of a day. But yes she is lucky. No broken bones. She will most likely be okay. I am mad as hell at the bastard who hit her and sped off. —- O Artemis of the Wilds, Huntress of the Woods I pray to You today in my hour of…

Wrap-up of the June/July GMC
Well, this GMC ended up being longer than it was supposed to, because of life stuff getting in the way during June. But I think it turned out to be good “month”, even if it was twice as long. I think Anubis and Odin got way more attention than Wepwawet, but since I’ve decided to…
GMC Poetry: To Anubis the Shaman
Anubis Anpu Yunipu By every name that You have been called I hail You As Your sharp eyes can pierce the deepest blackness May I see what You see As Your keen ears detect the subtlest vibration May I hear what You hear As Your nose picks up the faintest scent May all my scents…
GMC poetry: The Jackel
The Jackal grins Showing teeth Yellow eyes glisten Taking in all they see Entrancing all who look into them Lord of Death Lord of Life You are ……….Opener of the Way ……….Far-Walker ……….Master of the Necropolis Lord Jackal What do You see In me?
GMC poetry: To Anubis
I offer a prayer to the King of Night Attendant of Isis, haunter of graveyards Anubis, far-walker Your presence is heralded by the howling Of wild dogs in the distance Those lonely scavengers, Your children Furtive shadows dancing On the periphery of the Necropolis Eyes bright, ears peaked Ever alert, the hunters of the desert…

GMC poetry: Hail Anubis
Hail Anubis, Opener of the Way Black Dog of Egypt, Weigher of Hearts Son of Nephthys, son of Isis Liminal God, way-walker He Who dwells in the Necropolis At the edge of daylight Where shadows dwell Fearlessly You stride Into the dark of night What have You to fear In the cold night’s depths? For…
GMC: Anubis, Opener of the Way
Anubis is the canid Egyptian God of the dead. He protected the pieces of Osiris’ body while Isis collected them, so that He could eventually be resurrected. He oversees mummification and so is associated with immortality. His center of worship was in uten-ha/Sa-ka/, which the Greeks simply called Cynopolis, “Dog City”. His worship alongside Isis…
June God of the Month Club
Won’t be posting for it till next week, but in case anyone is curious, June’s Gods of the Month are Yinepu/Anubis. Wepwawet, and Odin. It’s interesting that Anubis and Wepwawet showed up the same month. I’m not choosing these, I shuffle the deck thoroughly every time. It’s completely random. Odin is also the second Norse…
Greco-Egyptian Noumenia Ritual
So, today is the Noumenia, the New month in the Greek Calendar. Although Noumenia means literally “New Moon”, it is not on what is astrologically called the new moon, which is really the dark moon. Rather, it occurs a few days later, when the first sliver of light appeared. It was considered one of the…
