Anpu: So this is an SUV, huh? And you're sure this is the best thing for traveling through the desert these days?
Larry: Of course! You'll see, you'll love it. Too bad there's only one seat and so little storage...
Anpu: Good thing I saved those droid arms, huh? Let them carry our stuff.
Larry: They sure saved our lives but... Anpu... do you really need your torch to see spirits? You already see spirits!
Anpu: Yeah, but you don't.
Larry: I don't even want to see them!
Anpu: You'll get used to it. *Settles in behind the SUV.* Gah, it's too uncomfortable, go on it yourself, I'll find another way to keep up with you.
Larry: And where are you going to get another vehicle?
Anpu: Come on, we're in a ship junkyard, surely I can... wait... do you smell that? *Sniffs.* Plastoid... Good quality blaster gas... Stormtroopers!
Larry: Get in the SUV Anpu, we have to go!
Anpu: Wait, I want to take a look.
Larry: Anpu! No!
*Anpu disappears behind a giant turbine.*
Anpu: (In the distance.) Ohoho! I got my noble white steed!
Stormtrooper: (In the distance.) Hey! Stop!
*Engine sounds and blaster shots.*
Anpu: Run, Larry! Speed up!!!
Stormtrooper: Stop in the name of the galactic empire!
Larry: (Accelerating with a loud screech of wheels!) Oh gods!

Call it what you will. Master builder, planeswalker, multidimensional traveler... But when you travel so many worlds and make so many friends, every now and then you get gifts like this: A base of dwarven and elven metallurgy forged in the furnaces of Mount Doom, some demonic technology salvaged from the UAC warehouses, a dash of Efreeti magic from the Elemental Plane of Fire, and the always beautiful and terrifyingly functional design of the blacksmiths of Sekhmet's army. The result? My two trusty, unmeltable khopesh!

“There is no need to justify god in the face of the injustice and evil in the world. Evil is inherent in the nonexistent and hence is older than the gods and present in the world from the beginning. The gods cannot be made responsible for it, but are the very powers that combat evil and continually drive it out from the existent world.”
(Conceptions of God in Ancient Egypt: The One and the Many, Erik Hornung)

I've been debating writing this post for awhile, and I strongly believe many people relevant to it are not going to like it.
But here it is. I have my own emotions, my own perspective. No one has to agree with me, and I am not seeking approval
I simply agreed at one point that I would talk about my shift in and/or away-from #kemeticOrthodoxy (temporarily, permanent, who knows), and after a few weeks of thinking about this post, well here we are.
Sincerely,
Your friendly neighborhood Kemetic Polytheist#Website: https://wepwawet.ca/2023/06/30/it-comes-from-the-top/

I'm gearing up to release into the wild my new #Kemetic #Discord #server I'm very excited :)
This will be for all Kemetic paths (there are so many!) to hang out with nothing being pre-loaded, no expectations of what or how you believe or practice, for the curious and the experienced. Mutual respect is a must, as there is no "one-true-Kemetic path".
I think it will be fun... if I can get people to join 😅 if not, it will just be like 5 of us hanging out, but we'll be the best 5, pfft.
The server is functional now but there's much to be done in terms of customization, so I may just open it and let it evolve as people have suggestions, we'll see how that goes.

So in case it wasn't obvious yet to some of my #Kemetic and #KemeticOrthodox followers, the following two changes have happened:
First, I've resigned from being a Baku (temple servant) in the House of Netjer, including moderation and anything else I've assisted with in the past.
Second, I am no longer a Shemsu Ankh or a Shemsu (new) within the House of Netjer Kemetic Temple. I am now a Divined Remetj.
When I started to write this, I had to stop myself from writing things like "I am now only a Divined Remetj" or "I've dropped down to Divined Remetj", because it's a negative statement which does not need to exist. Don't get me wrong, there is most definitely a hierarchy in the House of Netjer Kemetic Temple -- we can deny it all we like, but the proof continues to be there -- however a hierarchy does not necessitate judgment for whatever ring of said hierarchy on which you happen to exist.
Basically, if anyone is there for titles to "win the game", they've missed the point entirely.
So aside from what has changed, let's talk about what hasn't:
🅐 My spirituality and my faith: I am still a Kemetic polytheist, just like I was a Kemetic #polytheist last week, just like I'll be a Kemetic polytheist next week.
🅑 My House membership: I haven't "left" the House (at least as of writing this post), I'm simply no longer a Shemsu. Those are not one in the same thing.
🅒 My Gods, in particular my Parentage: I accept my RPD results, and will continue to do so, because I know them to be completely true. More on this later.
🅓 My name: it was given to me by Wepwawet.
🅔 My community: Nothing changes in how I interact with my Kemetic friends, at least I personally don't think so anyway.
It's hard to fit all the reasons is a neat little box that this is happening, and there are for certain some larger posts to come... but for now, what's needed to be done, is done, and I am better for it.
I do hope I don't lose any friends over this decision, though if you only had me added "because I was a Shemsu" and don't give two hoots about me any other way, I don't think very highly of you -- but unfortunately in the days/weeks to come, it may happen anyway, as I am not one to sit still and be silent.
I didn't come all this way and make all this change not to talk.

New statues for #Hethert, #Nut, and #Amun
In 22 years I have never had my entire lineup have proper statues (only Wepwawet did) -- Hethert, Amun, and Nut have always had non-#Kemetic iconography on my shrine, just kind of worked out like that, and They were certainly OK with it.
But now Everyone has something, and I just feel really good about that.

Finally upgraded my big shrine to the modern look I was craving. No more hand-me-down wood/glass table falling apart at the seams, no more $10 shitty walmart table. (my little daily shrine is still off to the right)
I feel good about this. May add LED lights!
Dua #Wepwawet <3
I also have new statues on order for the rest of my lineup (#Hethert, #Amun, and #Nut) as the current ones are due for an upgrade, though I do really love Amun's ram that I found at a thrift store.
