    I've enjoyed the video. I'm a reincarnation of Seth in the flesh. I did some meditation and asked for a teacher to appear. Thoth appeared. I asked several questions and said who am I. Without hesitation he said Seth. I was a bit bothered. I wanted him to say Osiris. Since then my life became awkward. I noticed my siblings and parents fit the Gods. My brother and I don't speak anymore his nickname is OJ. He's Osiris. My sister Vanessa is isis. She named her daughter Skye whom I believe is Horus. My half sister Natasha is Nephesis. My Father Gordon Bain is Geb. My mother Cynthia is a schizophrenic. Which is another way of saying a Nutt. I believe all the Gods are real and they reincarnate into us. Gematria showed me a lot. I died this year and I came back. Still trying to find the purpose of my existence. Life is a game created by the Gods. Matrixes upon matrixes. These beings existed and still do.

    @NyarlathotepCrawlingChaos Год назад +4

    Well, you’re definitely wrong about him symbolizing and representing “eternal order,” but you are correct about him once having an association with fertility. I’ll explain.
    Even back in the early predynastic period, even back before his cult was adopted and assimilated into those of the Ennead (Osiris, Isis, etc.), Set always symbolized and represented Asfet/Isfet (chaos, adversity, calamity, conflict, confusion, wrongdoing, trickery, black magic, danger, etc)., and was considered to be the supreme divine origin for all these things. This did not mean he was always antagonistic or negative (though he certainly was always considered to be a dangerous and fearsome divinity). As the master and source of all these dangerous forces, he was venerated by people so that he would withhold these forces and protect the people, their lands, and their ways of life. Basically, he was prayed to so that he would not smite everyone, and he has always been the type of divinity who encourages growth and strength through adversity and harsh lessons.
    This included praying to him to withhold infertility, which is why he was associated with fertility in a protective role, and why he was associated with fertility gods and goddesses whose roles were likewise protective rather than romantic. This was also why he was the divinity people prayed to when they were dealing with black magics, dangerous wild animals, natural disaster, and foreign powers, because he ruled over these things and could grant protection from them.
    As for Apep/Apophis, that divinity and its associated stories are a much later addition to the culture and religion, most likely from cultural exchanges between the Egyptians and Canaanites. Apep would begin to share some of the same roles Set already filled, and Set as a warrior and master of storms would start to mirror the Canaanite’s stories of Ba’al as more emphasis where placed upon his more protective aspects.
    During and after the ascent of the Osiris cult to prominence and the unification of Upper and Lower Egypt, Set’s mythology was altered again to fit the narrative of the changing and increasingly anti-foreign society’s needs and purposes, being vilified as the murderer and usurper. During this time, Apep’s relevance within the religion and mythology diminished, and Set returned to the forefront of being the primary origin and representative of Asfet, but this time without many of the more positive qualities he was once known for. Effectively, he was largely demonized as a form of political-religious propaganda. Fortunately, several very important pharaohs didn’t agree with this.

    Also, two more minor corrections.
    First, the “Set Animal” is called the Sha. Oddly, Set isn’t the only divinity this creature is associated with (yes, there are in fact others), but he is the most prominent and relevant.
    Second, Set is not associated with the griffon, but rather with the dragon. The Akhekh/Akhekhu is one of Set’s most ancient symbols and totems, representing his more dangerous and hostile aspects and natures, going all the way back to his predynastic origins. It could be represented either as an ouroboros type dragon (occasionally with some humanoid features), or as a chimeric quadrupedal creature with many serpentine/reptilian, leonine, antelopine, and avian features. It’s easy to understand why some people would mistake this later form with a griffon after only a superficial observation, but when you consider the Akhekh as a whole, including both of the ways it is depicted, and also what it symbolically represents, it is pretty clear that the Akhekh is a dragon.
