Sekhmet and Heru-wer


Aset


Sekhmet and Heru-wer with the lights on.


Aset with the lights on.

I snapped some quick photos of the State Shrine today before doing the Rite. :)

The tiny pitcher thing is an oil lamp I put together using the little bottle, a rolled up old piece of linen and a wick.

The middle bowl is Sekhmet's with the moulded lion heads on it (Heru's isn't shown). The bowl in the lower, right corner has frankincense and myrrh resins in it.

Wish I could show you the statues. They are gorgeous (14" each), gold. The Heru is colored as well. They are not available for sale, anywhere.

Sekhmet, because the U.K. artist who made Her closed up shop some time ago. He was, as far as I'm concerned, one of the two best artists sculpting Sekhmet in our time. Heru is modified from this. The reason for the modification, is that there are no "Heru-wer" statues on the market. That is the closest thing, but parts of it had to be removed in order to get the right head-gear. The end result, after repainting is far nicer than the original and you can't tell it was ever any different.

As you can see, I tend to keep this one clean, simple and functional rather than elaborate and full of stuff. My personal shrines are significantly busier!

BEWARE: GUARD FISH ON DUTY
Gilgamesh protects this journal and its author from the evil eye, hexes, mega-nega-thoughts, mind bullets, gossip gabbers and bad vibes of all kinds. He is very psychic. If you are rotten, do not attempt to enter. Gilgamesh will know, and I cannot be held responsible for how he will deal with you.

Your have been warned!




If you want to be added, comment and Gilgamesh, the guardian goldfish will judge your intent. ;)

Bribing him with flakes won't help!
