I have been focusing heavily on my patron god, but obviously, I don't want to exclude any netjer from my practice. However, it is—of course—impossible to set up a sacred space for every single god. How can I honor each netjer without using a lot of materials? I would appreciate any advice.

Hi everyone. I’m relatively still new to Kemeticism, and I wanted to ask about which god or goddess I could reach out to for help with my mental health? I’ve been extremely anxious and depressed lately, and don’t know what to do anymore.

Hi everyone. This is one of the most difficult times in my entire life… it feels like a never ending nightmare and I really just need support, advice, and the perspectives of other Kemetics.

There is a group of really nasty people who have just been after me and my fiancé… solely because they dislike us due to our association with the mayor that they hate (it is a small town municipal government… due to ongoing legal problems I will refrain from providing too much detail) The mayor has done nothing wrong… we think they dislike him because they are racists (the mayor is from Egypt who moved here and gained his citizenship)

Finances are absolute hell… we can’t find work anywhere and we are just scraping by… getting what food and necessities that we are able to come across.

I have prayed, and prayed, and prayed, and prayed. I have done spell work. I have done everything that you can imagine. And still… I feel as though my prayers are falling upon deaf ears. We’re struggling with bullying/harassment/financial issues/health issues. I don’t want to go into too much detail on the health issues, so I’ll just say that we both need medical care that we are unable to afford.

Like… there is literally not a single aspect of my life that I am not stressing out about right now. I’m in a living Hell. Anubis is my patron… has been for the past 6 years. And now this time… I truly feel like he isn’t listening. Or worse… he is and just doesn’t want to see us succeed in life.

I’ve been excommunicated by my family since I’m not a Christian, so the option for them to help is out. My fiancé’s family helps us where they can, but it isn’t much.

I just don’t know what to do any more. I know I haven’t provided a ton of info, but if I were to tell more… this post would be a novel. I have been dealing with shitty person after shitty person after shitty situation after shitty situation… it never stops.

I just want to enjoy life again.

How did the Ancient Egyptians view trials and hardships? I know this feeling is nothing new… how did they navigate through when the troubles stack like mountains?

I’ve been doing a lot of sewing and stuff lately and anyways I’ve been thinking of something to add to an old jacket of mine. I decided I wanted a bug design that wrap around to the back somehow then thought it would be cool to do something related to a scarab rolling the ball whatever anyways

I was thinking about discretely embroidering something inside somewhere that could be semi devotional cause I’m in a strict house and can’t actually have anything out related to kemetism aside from my thousands of books that make me look like an egyptology nerd lol. I mostly worship Lady Aset and Lord Djeheuty. Any ideas? I was thinking maybe an ankh or something maybe on the inside of the sleeve or something any ideas appreciated!

When you leave prepackaged food as offerings, like say pastries or other snacks, do you open the container and/or remove the food from the wrapper and then offer it? Or leave it closed in its packaging? If you offer beer, do you open the bottle or the can first?

Trying to figure out if I've been doing this wrong lol

Hello im texting the Same as before But in English bcc maybe there Are Not so much germans in this Community
I've been deeply connected to ancient Egypt since I was little; it's always been in my heart. Back then, at a party where we were giving each other temporary tattoos, I only ever thought of one thing: I'd get an ankh tattooed on my finger. That's all I wanted. Now I'm even decorating my living room in an Egyptian style.

I watch Egyptian documentaries every evening, and my biggest dream is to stand in a temple and in front of the pyramids. Then I start to cry.

Anyway, my life has been completely turned upside down for the past year, and I'm looking for help or something new. Then it occurred to me: why shouldn't I continue to live my love life? And that's how I discovered that the religion is still practiced, which I'm very proud of.

Well, anyway, my life has been completely turned upside down for the past year, and I'm looking for help or something new. I'm not an expert due to my past experiences, but I do know a little about ancient Egypt, just not about the religious practices. So I'm currently trying to learn about things like household altars, etc. I already know who it should be: Anubis, my beloved, whom I've encountered in dreams or something similar, and Ra, to whom I also have a strong connection. They also happen to be a perfect match.

Now I'm looking for guidance and wondering which books I can read so that I can do justice to the religion and not do it wrong.

I'm grateful for any information and happy to have found this; it feels right.

So I am autistic and I have ADHD. And like many people with AuDHD I suffer from executive disfunction. It destroys my life. Some days are really bad, others I don't have executive disfunction. And a lot in between.

Today I wanted to celebrate a feast for Anubis. I got some special things yesterday (chocolate, beer, fruits) to go with the usual offerings (bread mostly)

But I just couldn't do it.

Today I woke up way too early (03.00 AM), (no reason, i just woke up and i was awake then) I drank my coffee, and then I went to brush my teeth. Next I wanted to take a shower at around 06.00 AM, but I just... didn't. Couldn't. At 10.00 I had Breakfest. Then, finally around 12.00 I finally got in the shower.

Than it took me a long time to get dressed.

When I wanted to start my ritual, it felt wrong. I had a knot in my stomach.

I don't think Anubis is angry with me. But everything feels wrong now. I feel sick. I don't want to eat, I don't want to skip the ritual, but I don't want to do it either. It just feels wrong. Both options feel wrong. I could do it tomorrow, but maybe I heave the same problem tomorrow?

What should I do? It's 14.23 (02.23 PM) now.

Hi all! I’m new to deity work. I was directed to this sub because I’ve been drawn to Anubis and want to try to work with him.

I’ve started to collect things to present as an offering but want some advice before going in! I’m trying to mix traditional and modern offerings but am unsure the right way to proceed.

How will I know he’s accepted? How often will I have to change up the altar? Any general advice for working with him?

Blessings 🖤

I dedicated this piece to lady sekhmet and my gf they both have the same energy and i love it and i hope yall will too dua netjeru!

My college is making a major cut on all their scholarships. For years our chancellor has been taking money from the scholarship funds and saying we don't have enough in the budget to give more aid. This man makes over $900,000 a year and is stealing money from the students who really need it and now they've cut like 75% of the fund. These officials need to face consequences and these students should get what was stolen from them returned and I know that is completely out of my hands.

What gods would be best to reach out to for help with this?

Hallo ich bin seit klein auf tief verbunden mit dem Alt Ägypten es war iwie schon immer in meinem herzen ich habe mir auch damals auf einer Party wo wir mit Stick and Poke uns tattoos gestochen haben an nur eins gedacht ich mach mir ein Ankh auf den Finger mehr wollte ich garnicht und richte nun auch mein Wohnzimmer im ägyptischen styl ein.

ich schaue jeden Abend Ägypten dokus und mein größter Traum ist es in einem Tempel und vor den Pyramiden zu stehen dann fang ich an zu weinen.

naja aufjedenfall ist mein Leben seit jetzt einem Jahr komplett auf den Kopf gedreht und ich suche Hilfe oder etwas Neues und dann ist mir eingefallen warum solltest du die Liebe nicht weiter führen und so bekam ich raus das die Religion noch weiter geführt wird worüber ich sehr stolz bin.

ich bin durch die vergangenheit kein Profi aber ich kenne mich schon ein wenig aus mit dem Alt Ägypten nur nicht mit den praktiken der Religion also bin ich grade dabei zu erfahren wie es mit einem hausaltar aussieht usw. Ich weis auch schon wer es sein soll: anubis mein Liebster der mir schon im Traum oder so etwas begegnet ist und RA zudem ich auch eine starke Bindung habe sie harmonieren auch zufälliger Weise perfekt.

nun suche ich Unterstützung und frage mich welche Bücher ich lesen kann damit ich der Religion gerecht sein kann, damit ich es nicht falsch mache.

ich bin über jede information glücklich und froh dies gefunden zu haben das fühlt sich richtig an.

eu já tenho meu altar para Heru há um certo tempo e ele está meio escondido no meu guarda roupa porque não tenho tanta liberdade de culto por aqui, mas enfim, estou pensando em mudá-lo de lugar para ficar mais acessível e talvez transferir para uma caixa. é tudo bem fazer isso? vou usar uma caixa de papelão e estou pensando até em decorar ela. se vocês tiverem alguma dica, por favor me deixem saber ^^

IT TOOK ALL NIGHT AND STILL AINT FINISHED (context: its supposed to be my gf depicted as sekhmet bc she has her energy)

I'm kind of new here. 21 NB from Egypt, and just, it's a mess belief-wise, and I could use some other forms of belief to help? I'm not sure

Im trans FTM, and im working on transitioning this year. I know Aset helped another transman transition in the myths, so would Aset be a good diety to go to for support while I transition?

I've been feeling a draw to the Egyptian gods as of late (particuarly Thoth), and was wondering what resources someone who is interested in this should look into? I'm always a little weary of just picking up random info online and figured asking actual practitioners was probably a good bet! I've done some prelimary research but would love advice/places to look into more as I figure things out. Thanks!

Hello, I've been looking through this community for some time and I find it very interesting.

I am personally an atheist, but I am intrigued by the diversity of belief and culture that I see here, and I have a few questions to get to know the community better. I know that answers will differ from person to person.

- To what extent do you hold full, literal belief in the Kemetic deities, as opposed to a metaphorical understanding of their roles?

- Do you hold any kind of daily rituals that have a spiritual significance?

- If you believe in the true existence of the Kemetic deities, how do these beliefs work with the knowledge of modern science? (nature of the Sun, cosmology, etc.)

- Pharaohs through much of Egyptian history were seen as divine figures who ascended to the heavens in death. Do you see this as a real part of Kemetic tradition, or just the historical exaltation of royalty?

- More specifically, the chaos snake was feared in ancient times as the ultimately enemy to existence. Do you believe in this being, at least in some spiritual sense, and have a feeling of opposition to it?

Thank you all for your time

Im a artist and devoted to the netjeru and i also have the prettiest gf that reminds me of sekhmet can i draw her or take inspo from sekhmet to draw her?

For the followers of Heru and Set! I hope you enjoy. Feel free to use this post to share your experiences with them or any advice you have on working with them. I'm still very new to this practice and would love to hear from people who have been following them for years!

Found in the wilds of Facebook

Hiii! I recently joined here and I wanna talk about my first encounter with Anubis. I started my journey with him on 2024 in March, I was leaving from my old friends birthday party and driving home. I felt a very nice dark presence and it felt inviting, I heard the words "dont be afraid and I will help you through your circumstances safely." It was actually nice to hear him say something reassuring and pleasant. He's been a huge help to me for a while now. I am currently a closet witch so I cant do much for him right now but to listen to his mediation and look for his signs.

I’ve been reading some books on and off for months, not really finishing any of them. I’ve sat up a small altar to Bastet, as after getting through college with some deep depression and suicidal tendencies, my cat is the only thing to manage to get me through all of this. Even now I wouldn’t describe myself as fully “healed” mentally. I honestly feel like I don’t deserve him, but he’s a gift that I try to take really good care of as a form of prayer to Bastet. I don’t really know what to do honestly, I feel like a faker since I don’t really know how often to pray or do offerings, how elaborate a shrine needs to be. It’s just a little statuette, some books, and an ankh, and a box with some jewelry that I have to hide since I can’t really let anyone know I have jewelry but I still wanted to have some for the shrine (closeted trans women btw, likely will never be able to come out. Ever.) so what exactly do I need to do to “prove” my commitment? It’s hard because it’s not like I can just go to church or something more traditional, so does anyone have any advice on regular practices or things? Most of what I’ve read is mythology, hymns and prayers, but no actual advice like “Do X about Y times each week” type of stuff. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Hi! I'm a graphic designer who loves Egyptian hieroglyphs and wants to design a book/zine around them. I don't know if the book should be one interesting story, multiple stories, or just dense text or fun facts?? I'd love some suggestions! Also, this will be an illustrated visual book.

Hey guys, can you help me?

I want to build an altar for Ísis and i wanted to know what crystals i can offer her?
