Like, imagine it. Isis has decided her son is finally prepared to face Set. She has presented him to the Ennead. The court case to decide which one should hold the kingship has begun.

And as Set is watching Horus, trying to calculate what to do (he's not good with words so. best bet is probably just to punch him in the face really hard when no one is looking. oh no, the annoying child is dead! of completely unidentifiable causes! we can all go home now!), he notices that Taweret is, like, always slipping Horus honey candies whenever Isis isn't looking? And she keeps ruffling his hair affectionately with her hands?

And, also, Nephthys is correcting Horus's posture on how he holds his weapons? Like, he'll be holding a spear or a khopesh (wrong! cause he's stupid!), but then Nephthys will make eye contact with him while miming how to do it properly, and he corrects himself? And when his belt sash comes undone she'll point at her own so he fixes it? And she thinks she's being sly about it but SET CAN SEE HER DOING THIS???

Why is this happening? What does it mean? Because to be honest Set hasn't been speaking with his wives a lot recently. There were really long periods of time where they didn’t see each other, since he was busy stalking through the marshes of the Nile Delta trying to hunt down and kill this kid. And, now that he thinks about it, he doesn't really know exactly where they were when that was happening. And-- Oh. OH GOD.

*I say "at least" because there are a lot of goddesses who you could speculate are Set's consorts based on various evidence, and the amount of goddesses in the Egyptian pantheon who are said to have helped/watched over Horus at some point is basically all of them. So the number of women this happened with is potentially infinite.

Devotional acts

Acts of fun, loving chaos. Go out with your friends and joke around. Unlock your inner child- go to the arcade, a trampoline park (jump on your bed), go play laser tag! Sutekh is often seen as a ‘shadow work’ deity, as well, so unlocking your inner child can be a good way to heal parts of yourself that never got to be free and loud. You can also participate in different things like playing video games (play some CoD or Assassin’s Creed).

As a god associated with foreigners and foreign lands, it can be as simple as making new friends or going out to new places (restraints, parks, cities, states/countries). Put yourself out there and get out of your own comfort zone. Get out of the rut you may be in and do something different.

As a protector of Ra and leader of warriors, learn how to fight. Stick up for others and for yourself when you need it. Start working out, learn some self defense (watch some YouTube videos).

He also guided the deceased, and as a god of foreigners, help out others who may feel like they’re on the outskirts of society. Helping others is always a great devotional act, but it can be as simple as lending an ear to those who need it, listening and being there for them. Just remind them that they’re not alone- and just because they feel like they’re on the outskirts- it doesn’t make them any less valuable.

Signs

Imagery of the sha or even animals that look like the sha (anteaters, jackals, foxes, donkey, hyena). Sutekh is also associated with donkeys, pigs, flamingos, serpents, and hippopotamuses.

Sutekh is associated with the planet Mercury, the Great Bear constellation, and with sunsets. You may start feeling drawn to these or even see an increase in imagery. As well as imagery of royalty.

You may see an increase in storms in your area, or even earthquakes. He was connected to flash floods in the desert and his strength could cause the inundation. Speaking of his strength, you may feel a call to start working out and excising, as well.
