-Set / Sutekh Bust-
Homage to you Set, Lord of the Northern Sky, who resides beyond the Imperishable Stars. Advance, O far striding Master of the Seven Stars. May your powerful face be gracious to me. May you establish a crown upon my head like the Disk upon the head of my Father Amun-ra, and give to me all life, and strength and health.
From my personal collection of work, I’m offering up this ooak sculpture of Set. He is often gracious to me in being the subject of my experiments in style, and both my successes and failures as such. It took six months to figure out how to finish this one, but this weekend, I did.

Set has always been a name that comes to me when change is required. Not easy change usually. It can be in difficult times, in growth or in destruction. He doesn’t open doors for me, he takes the door down and removes it from this reality.
I started this piece because I had an urge to try my hand at painting on a wood board. Painting and drawing like this have been hobbies that I left behind many years ago, so it’s an old friend to rediscover them. And funny enough, the moment that I finished, a door was removed from a problem I’d been facing and opened up solutions that are honestly a huge relief for us financially and mentally.
It’s still not easy, but the way is there. As is His way always.FOR SALE HERE

-Sand Set / Sutekh Pocket God-
Hail, O great Netjeru, I place myself on the earth before you majesty,
Lord of Storms, I tremble before you, for it is you for whom the sky quakes.
Awake for me that my spine may be of your strength
And my aim as true as your spear.Hail, Set, Lord of Life, grant me your power that I may serve you
This day, and every day.

Set, while misunderstood as a Name, is one of great power and respect. He does the difficult tasks. He pushes, he destroys what needs to be destroyed. He is a god of foreigners, and of the parts of the world that are wastelands to our view. Desolate, but not without life. He is not soft, but he is not cruel. And he one that will always be with you when you call.This is the Set I get. The calm stillness of the sand or snow. The eye of a storm that is waiting, watching, poised to act and shelters from the desolation around it. He’s a strong name, but also loving, and has been a rock for my heart and my resolve in this trying year.
You can get a resin cast version of Him on my etsy now!

prayer submissions please! hello! I am MerytRa. An independent recon revivalist kemetic. I am asking the kemetic community on here for any if the prayers they wrote. I am compiling prayers for a mini pocket prayer book that will be available online for free when it is complete. You will be credited for your prayer. prayers relating to everyday life struggles such as love, protection, peace etc are preferable, but hymns are welcome too. a majority of the hymns will be directly from translations of funerary literature and stelae. if at all possible, try to keep overly specific prayers to a minimum, a general healing prayer would be preferable to a prayer for healing IBS. please send me a message or reblog this with your submission! make sure to include how you would like to be credited!
Sutekh, colourised from a pigment ink wash I painted in ten minutes using only the leftover ritual ash stain I used on this votive figure. Original on Patreon.

I carved a Sutekh icon for my altar from the same blackthorn branch that I carved Eris. He is stained with an 18-year-old red wine bequeathed to me by a dead bus driver (praise be to Albert! May he live forever!), blackberry and fig liqueurs, and icon. The black stain is part char from my stove, and part a mixture of ritual ash and Stuart Semple’s Black 2.0. The gold is ol’ Stuart’s goldest gold, which I can’t recommend enough really, and gold leaf. The red is a crimson alcohol ink I bought last year and immediately forgot I had. Turns out, it stains unsealed wood really well, and can be blended out with neat isopropyl alcohol on a paintbrush. This would ordinarily make me worry about drying out the wood, but beeswax and neem oil solves all problems.

Set, Lord of the Storms, protector of the outcasts, foreigners, rebels, and all who are marginalized, destroys the chaos-serpent. May ma’at prevail in our lands. Black Lives Matter.
