"Unlike today, however, in antiquity the average person might have specific relationships with deities of their family or ancestor group as well as their city, their profession, and even Netjeru that they might only talk to once a year on their special holidays. The desire to label or pigeonhole the Netjeru into single definitions of "X is the god of Y" like modern mythologists and others like to do was not so strong in a polytheistic world that fully embraced its diversity."

The deity Khenty-irty/Khenty-khety. He whose eyes are the sun and moon.

Menhit-Nebetuu the Divine Eye.
She is a large, primordial deity. Her consort is Khnum/Khnum-Ra. She has connections to the fields, plants, stars, and time. She is a combination of two goddesses, Menhit and Nebetuu. Just like Hethert and Sekhmet, these two are a angry and pacified combination.

O Khnum, creator of all that exists,
Be adored by your creation,
Your name sung in every heart,
It is your hands at the beginning,
That cradle us at the time of our conception.

O you brilliant one, radiant and strong,
Sekhmet in her name of Henut Mestjet,
Shining in the horizon, Mistress of Dawn.
