Deities have such an interesting connectivity. They give, take, nurture, harm, and more to each other. The Ancient Egyptian deities go a bit further and sometimes melt into each other, like colors in a paint palette. I find this aspect extremely intriguing and frustrating. How do you know exactly which manifestation you are connecting with? Does it really matter in the end? Are all Khnums of varying combinations still KHNUM proper? All valid questions to think on and figure out for oneself.

This image I am sharing was a commission for a kemetic practitioner. They experienced the vulture goddess Nekhbet very differently than others. They received her as Raet, the female Ra and the personification of the sun. The illustration features her three gods and how their relationships unfold. Ptah who cares for Amun-Ra. Nekhbet who brings life and rejuvenation to Amun-Ra. And Amun-Ra who is a bit detached and aloof in the sky. These are the very specific to them, manifestations of their deities. Which I think really highlights how personal and interconnective deities can be.
