Towards a modern Kemetic Pagan Ecclesiology (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Organization is important for any human group, but the specific model and details depend on its size, function and context. Pagan religious assemblies tend to be small and distributed given our representation, but our concerns themselves are not unique. So what is a pagan to do? What follows is the current model of the Temple of Horus on the Prairie. Although it is based on history and tailored to modern conditions, and intended mainly for ancient Egyptian pagans, it may be a useful format for a
Ancient Egyptian Hymns to the Solar Creator (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The ancient Egyptians found in the solar disk the ultimate theophany of the light, life and sovereignty of the supreme creator and ruler deity Ra, and would pay homage to Ra during its rising and setting.

Apep: Nihilism and Oblivion (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Apep, in wanting to unmake creation, is oblivion in the ontological sense. In ethics, he is nihilism. In society, he is “burn it all down”. In politics, anarcho-tyranny. In epistemology, the denial that truth exists objectively or can even be known.Apep. Apophis. The serpent. The nope-rope.“…and it’s his illusions about what constitutes the real world which are inhibiting him. His reality, his reason, his society: these are what must be destroyed.” - From “The Dice Man”, by Luke RheinhartThe quo
