These were just some of my thoughts while reading Ancient Egyptian Myths and Stories part A
The Secret Name of Ra- I had always known that isis was a goddess of healing or at lest she kind of was but i never knew that that she poisoned ra.
The Sun's Journey- I am guessing this is what they thought the sun did while it was not in the sky. I also never realized how many gods of the dead they had.
Osiris- Its interesting that the god Ra got to old. what does this mean. is he really a god if he is aging... im not sure maybe they just mean his human like form. its good to see Osiris helping the people.
The Death of Osiris- this is why you never get in to a box that could be used as a coffin. This story is pretty crazy. i cant believe that they tricked him like that.
The Journey of Isis- poor isis not only did it take her for ever to find the body of Osiris but when she did she brought it home and set chopped it up. I thought you could not kill a god? oh well i guess Ill find out what happens next.
King of the Dead- I dont want to give anything away but this part was really cool i can just picture her flying there and the life coming back in to him
The Wax Crocodile- Im not sure how this story fits with everything that i have been reading but I like it. the crocodile is pretty cool
The Green Jewel- that ring must have been important to her.
old ring from Egypt. can be found here |
