Krishna,

Seetha with her two sons, Luva and Kusha,

Breathe onto me, Sekhmet, Lady of Power, Mistress of Fire, and let your breath burn away all that is impure

Breathe onto me, Sekhmet, Ruler of Disease, Mother of War, and let your breath make me clean and free of evil

Breathe onto me, Sekhmet, Goddess of Life, Bringer of Death, and lift me in your strength and vitality

Oh Sekhmet, thrower of spears that bring terror onto men, one who inflicts misery, do not let your rage blind you and make you forgetful

Remember my prayers, oh lioness, that I gave in my service to you

Remember the hymns I sang to you with fervor

Remember, oh goddess, the offerings I have laid out before you, and the love and loyalty I have given as your child and servant

Guardian of Heaven, Guardian of Ra

Praise be to you, she who has all nations underfoot, she who delights in the blood of all beings

Praise be to you, giver of health, wielder of every spell and potion that gives relief

Praise be to you, giver and taker of affliction, subduer and rallier of illness

Destroyer of demons, destroy the impure ones that torment me

Slayer of the wicked, slay the cold ones that bring me plague

Killer of my enemies, kill the evil that resides in my flesh

With your mighty breath, I am cleansed

With your mighty breath, I am cured

With your mighty breath, I live again

Seth

He is a god of necessary chaos, of foreigners, of outcasts and of rebels. He is the Red Lord; He Whom Before The Sky Trembles; He Who Sparks The Riot!

Set is the god of thunder, of storms, of the electricity that courses through our veins when we stand up for Ma'at; for justice and truth!

And He is kind.

He, father of gentle, careful Anubis, is kind. He loves His followers, and guards us against any who would attempt to crush our dreams.

Beloved of Nebthet, Set, who would destroy a/p/e/p, who fights for Ma'at.

O Bast, great light bearer, eye of Ra

Today the sun shined long

I felt you in the loving rays of morning

And in the heat as the day wore on

And though the sun is now obscured

Great Beetle of the Sun.

You roll the light

across the sky,

and my heart is whole.

Dua Khepri, He Who Raises the Sun!

For it is with you that each dawn rises,

so that I may raise my arms high,

Balanced on the scales,

feather and heart.

O' Anpu,

You tip the balance of my life,

so that my feet may find solid ground,

and I may lighten my heart,

so it may not tip the scales.

Praise be to your wisdom,

O' Lord of Embalming,

Rise!

For glorious wings spread,

crown a beacon of light!

O' Aset, wielder of magicks!

Mother of Horus,

Queen in name,

I raise my arms to you!

May my stance firm and praises be sung,

O' Sobek,

lean guardian of the Nile,

I raise my voice to you.

Crush my enemies between your mighty jaws,

and bare me on your back across the waves of hardship.

Dua Sobek!

shining like a beacon,

placed between curved horns

O' Hathor,

I raise my voice to you.

O' Eye of Re,

your light guides my path,

and warms my skin.

O' Great Mother!

I beseech you to watch over me!

Guide my steps,

I move silent as the breeze.

My tail curls behind me,

and my muscles tense.

With fervor, I pounce,

sweeping the prey into my claws.

O' Bastet,

Great Mother of Cats,

I am your's in body and name.

O' God of Storms,

guide me when my path is dark.

Consume and rebuild me in your essence,

for it is to you that I raise my voice in praise.

Dua Set!
