r/EgyptianMythology

I’ve have had a strong interest in kemetic spirituality and ancient Egyptian history for years, so I felt the passion to create something for my favorite god/goddess.

Here’s mine:

1. Persona
2. Egyxos
3. Destripando la historia
4. Marvel
5. Mythos and monsters

I’ve been doing tons of commissions lately so in my free time I’ll teach myself new things to better my portfolio 🔭✨🌙💙
I would like to draw the neteru more often again honestly!

OPEN UP THE WHOLE PICTURE

But essentially, how correct is this list? Am I missing a lot?

Hey everyone, I hope this is allowed:

Behold! The power of Ancient Egypt lays within this picture! Do you dare try to retrieve any of the treasures within this small Egyptian Exhibit?

What do you guys think?

I saw this outside of my room, I don’t think it was a dream because it felt so real. I heard knocking on my door and when I opened it was in front of my grandparents room even though it knocked on my room, it saw me and ran away I wanted to chase it, but I didn’t. It also looked exactly like this, except it didn’t have any eyes or a face. I think it had a black outfit and a bracelet on its ankle but I might just be forgetting how it looked like since it happened years ago but that picture is how I mostly remember it

The ancient Egyptians didn't believe your soul was judged after death — they believed your heart was. Every kindness, every cruelty, every moral choice you ever made was physically recorded in your heart. That's what Anubis placed on the scales against the feather of Ma'at.

If your heart was lighter than the feather — pure, unburdened — you entered the Field of Reeds, the Egyptian paradise. If it was heavier, Ammit was waiting. Part lion, part hippopotamus, part crocodile — she devoured your heart on the spot. Not punishment. Not hell. Just permanent, total erasure. You simply ceased to exist.

What fascinates me most is that the Egyptians designed this as a legal proceeding — with a defendant, judges, evidence, and a verdict. The Book of the Dead was essentially a legal manual for the afterlife. No other civilization built anything this structured around death.

The question I keep coming back to: is the Egyptian system more fair than other afterlife beliefs? At least with Anubis, the judgment is immediate, specific, and based entirely on how you actually lived — not who you prayed to.

What do you think — is the weighing of the heart the most sophisticated afterlife judgment system ever created?

I saw this statue at the GEM and I was honestly a bit stranged out, since I never heard of him in most prominent myths (though I'm not very educated on Egyptian mythos), he's supposed to be a syncretism of Zeus, Dionysius, Osiris, Hades, and Apis (I also kept seeing Apis but I don't know who that is either) did he hold any importance in the pantheon, did he embody the spheres of influence of all of the deities listed above, was worship of him that common?

Tbh compared to the other Greco-Roman period statues something about this one just looked stylistically off. TLDR: WHO IS THIS GUY??? Why is there such little mention of him???
