Deity Of The Day!
Deity Of The Day!
Today's featured God/dess....
I think I will like to start off everyday posting up the deity's of the day. Just for fun!
Deity of the day for Thursday 5, Nov 2009 is...
KHNUM
KHNUM: Ram-headed God of Creative Pottery.
He creates everybody's bodies on his potter's wheel, shaping the clay as it turns round and around. If you ever get dizzy spells, that's probably why.
His wife is the froggy Goddess of Childbirth HEKET. When a clay baby is finished, they sneak it into the mother's womb and nature takes its course. Which shows that the ancient Egyptians weren't silly enough to believe all that nonsense about storks and cabbage patches.
Tracking down the variations of his name has caused us no end of confusion. It's enough to make one's mind go knumb.
Alternative names for KHNUM will be : CHNUM, CHNOUMIS, CHNUPHIS, CHNEMU, KEMU, KHNEMU, KNOUPHIS, KNUM
