#AND APOPHIS

[just-an-enby-lemon]

A very important thing I just noticed when I relistened to RQG is how much Hamid is just despreatedly looking for a father figure everywhere. Poor boy has deep daddy issues and it will affect his relationship with all authority figures he finds.

Every night, the sun god Ra travels through the underworld, facing dangers that threaten the cosmic balance. But the greatest threat of the journey is Apep, the giant chaos serpent, who emerges in the seventh hour to devour the sun and plunge the world into eternal darkness.

Standing against him is Mehen, the Duat serpent, coiling around the solar barque to protect Ra and the rest of the entourage that accompanies him, to ensure his journey to the new dawn.

Asteroid Apophis in your birth chart

~ The Dark Challenger ~

Asteroid Code: [99942]

• Asteroid Apophis in astrology indicates:

Indicates individual's challenges and transformative experience (where you experience your most recently transformations)

Where you might face unexpected and intense challenges or where you may need to comfort your shadow side/inner self

The house, sign, aspects can also indicate the nature of these challenges

Shock phase in a crisis

For example:

- Apophis in the 5th house might indicate challenges involving kids or birth (but also your shadow form might be a bit egoistical or selfish)

- Apophis aspecting Chiron (this specifically matters a lot based where Chiron in your house) indicates wounds and transformations in that area

- Apophis aspecting Venus can indicate challenges with relationships/partners but in the same time these things can help you transform and evolve over time (Your shadow form can tell you that you need to be more careful around this topic) - I can confirm for this aspect since I have it aswell in my birth chart

- Apophis conjunct north node can indicate a very transformative life where the native may be forced to evolve in their better versions, but also comes with experiencing multiple things at once

- Apophis in the 3rd house can be an indicator of having challenges in the area of communicating/talking, expressing yourself but also to learn about yourself might be challenging

Examples in Signs: (The signs might be easier to understand than houses)

- Apophis in Libra - Transformations about how your see yourself and the challenge is to learn to love yourself

- Apophis in Scorpio - Transformations about how you experience things and how you connect deeply to your feelings, challenges about understanding your own heart and feelings

- Apophis in Taurus - Transformation about grounding and connecting yourself to the source (universe), evolving yourself while being one with the earth, challenges is that you may be lazy and you can tend to ignore the spiritually inside you

Let's learn to be a good Thousand Son with mama with master Khepri Apophis, Wytchlord, Master of the Seven Sigils of Ahriman, son of Magnus the Red! :D (This is a much fanart as it is a fan headcanon. Bear with me. XD)

So Meryre, in the optic of learning HOW to be a good sorcerer, has been lended to the Thousand Sons for a bit. Yanis was tired of seeing him perform way under the usual "graduates" of the demonculaba, and thus he was hoping that the kid might shine in the domaine of sorcery. However, since he has zero interest in psyker bullshit and Asma is way too heavy on the faith, he dropped Mery at the planet of the sorcerers and told him to learn, that he would be back to see if he made any progress. Quite honestly, Mery had a wonderful time once the Thousand Sons recovered from the shock of seeing a Iron-Warrior-born brother. You have to understand, Yanis was never concerned about his looks, poor Mery walked in with zero confidence, in a functional grey shirt, with no sense of style and a few notions on magic he just picked up instinctively! There was a LOT of work to do! (And he was already traumatized and trying to act like an Iron Warrior neophyte. They had to work to break this rigidity and teach him creativity!) Now my brain went "you know who could give him a sense of style and a flare for the dramatic and teach him soul sorcery? Khepri. It would be very funny." XD Who better to teach him to be a failed pretty boy with actual real power than the Wytchlord himself? :D Obviously this is only canon if @sorormaior lets me slide their boy into my boy's backstory for fun, it is unlikely to come up regardless. But it is a fun thought! :D "First thing you are going to learn-" "The basics of warp safety?" "No. Proper kohl application. Your eyeliner needs to be as sharp as your mind, tilt your face up!"

Ships of the Gods of Ancient Egypt

The Nile River was the source of life for the ancient Egyptians and so figured prominently in their religious beliefs. At night, the Milky Way was considered a heavenly Nile, associated with Hathor, and provider of all good things. The Nile was also linked to Uat-Ur, the Egyptian name for the Mediterranean Sea, which stretched out to unknown lands from the Delta and brought goods through trade with foreign ports.

Watercrafts were no doubt among the earliest conveyances built in Egypt, with small boats appearing in inscriptions in the Predynastic Period (c. 6000 - c. 3150 BCE). These boats were made of woven papyrus reeds but later were made of wood, grew larger, and became ships.

The ships of the Egyptians were used for commercial ventures like fishing, trade, and travel and also in warfare, but from at least the Old Kingdom of Egypt (c. 2613-2181 BCE), they also feature in religious beliefs and practices. Ships known as Barques of the Gods are associated with a number of different Egyptian deities and, although each had its own significance, their common importance was in linking the mortal world with the divine.

The Barque of Ra

Easily the most important divine vessel was the Barque of Ra which sailed across the sky each day as the sun. In one religious tale, Ra becomes enraged with humanity and their ceaseless stupidity and decides to destroy them by sending Sekhmet to devour them and crush their cities. He repents and stops her by sending her a vat of beer, which she drinks, passes out from, and wakes up later as Hathor, the friend to humans. In some versions, the story ends there, but in others, Ra is still not satisfied with humanity and so boards his great barge and sails away into the heavens. Still, since he cannot completely distance himself from the world, he appears each day watching over it as the sun. The solar barque the people saw during the day was called the Mandjet, and the one which navigated through the underworld was known as the Meseket.

By the time of the Middle Kingdom of Egypt (2040-1782 BCE), this myth included the added dimension of the Great Serpent known as Apophis. As the Barque of Ra descended into the west in the evening, it entered the underworld where Apophis waited to attack it. Apophis was present at the beginning of creation when, in one myth, Ra is the god who stands on the primordial mound and raises order out of chaos. Apophis wanted to return the universe to its original undifferentiated state and could do this if he destroyed the barge of the sun god and the sun god with it.

Other gods, as well as the souls of the justified dead, would travel on the barge with Ra to protect him and his ship from Apophis during its journey through the underworld. A number of paintings and inscriptions depict all of the most famous gods, at one time or another, fending off the Great Serpent either alone, in groups, or in the presence of the justified dead.

Mortals were encouraged to participate in this struggle from their homes and temples on earth. Rituals such as The Overthrowing of Apophis were observed in which figures and images of Apophis were made of wax and then ritually mutilated, spat on, urinated on, and burned. This was among the most widely practiced execration rituals in Egypt and linked the living with the souls of those who had passed on and with the gods.

Every night the gods, souls, and humanity joined together to battle chaos and darkness and preserve life and light, and each time they won, the sun rose in the morning, and the dawn light was an assurance that all was well with Ra and life on earth would continue. As the barge sailed across the sky, however, Apophis returned to life in the underworld and would be waiting again once night fell; and so the battle would have to be fought again.

Stargate text posts are a go

[mindblowingscience]

The European Space Agency has given the go-ahead for initial work on a mission to visit an asteroid called (99942) Apophis. If approved at a key meeting next year, the robotic spacecraft, known as the Rapid Apophis Mission for Space Safety (Ramses), will rendezvous with the asteroid in February 2029. Apophis is 340 meters wide, about the same as the height of the Empire State Building. If it were to hit Earth, it would cause wholesale destruction hundreds of miles from its impact site. The energy released would equal that from tens or hundreds of nuclear weapons, depending on the yield of the device.
