Egyptian God Horus & His History:
According to mythology, Horus (also spelled Hor, Har, Her, Heru) was the Falcon headed Egyptian god of war and the sky; he was closely associated to the Sun and the Moon as well. ‘Horus’, the name itself translates to “he who is distant” or “he who is above”. He was also known as the protector of the royalty of Egypt, avenger of wrongs, defender of order and uniter of the two lands. He was the son of Osiris and Isis. In the myths, Horus fought against Seth, his power hungry and jealous uncle, for the throne as he was the rightful successor as the son of Osiris. However while battling against Seth; his left eye was damaged to a point where it was divided into six pieces. Thankfully, his eye was restored by Thoth, who was the god of the Moon, reckoning, writing and many other things. Horus sometimes is also depicted as a creator god and benevolent protector.
Significance of “The Eye of Horus”:
Now in this research and interpretation, we will be focusing on the ‘Eye of Horus’. Obviously, Horus the God himself has a lot of significance but, due to ancient myths and beliefs, his eye has come to light more often. Before we begin, one must understand that both of Horus’s eyes had significance, although the left one more than the right. The right eye was associated with the Sun God Ra as Horus was sometimes believed to be his son as well and the left eye was associated to the Moon God Thoth. As I mentioned earlier, Horus fought against his uncle Seth for the right to his father’s throne, during which, his left eye was damaged and torn into six pieces. Each of the six pieces represented the six human senses and mathematical fractions: Touch 1/64, Taste 1/32, Hearing 1/16, Thought 1/8, Sight 1/4, Smell 1/2 and one specific unknown fraction. It is interesting to note that if the pieces are added together the total is 63/64 not 1. Now this ‘Unknown Fraction’ is often said to be the magic that Thoth used to restore Horus’s left eye or in other interpretations it simply suggests that nothing is ever ‘Perfect’.
Considering the very fact that there are six senses attached to the mighty ‘Eye of Horus’, one should also look into the connection it makes to the human brain, specifically; the pineal gland. This part of the brain is linked to emotions and memories. It controls and coordinates everything from the movements of the fingers to the heart rate and depicts the secret areas of the brain that hold the potential for each human to attain enlightenment. Remember, the pineal gland is often associated to the “Third Eye”. It stays dormant until the soul reaches a certain spiritual level. Ancient Egyptians believed that it was primordial to nurture our limbic brain so that the third eye would lead us to spiritual awakening. Clearly in this case, the ‘Eye of Horus’ is also representative of the third eye.
If one was to truly notice, the representation of the ‘Eye of Horus’ is a cross between a human eye and a hawk’s eye. In other myths it is also mentioned that when Horus’s left eye was restored, he gave it to his dead father, Osiris, who ate it and was then restored to life. As a result, it became a symbol of life and resurrection. It later came to be known as the “Wadjet/ Udjat” eye as well in its amulet form which was used by the ancient Egyptians for their homes, travels, mummifications and many other auspicious things.
In our modern days today, this symbol is still used in the form of an amulet in Egypt and others who believe in its powers. In fact, the Egyptian Airlines itself has Horus’s Falcon Head and the ‘Eye of Horus’ illustrated on the bodies of their airplanes/aircrafts. This symbol and name is found largely in Egyptian Tourist Hotels as well.
Themes to associate with while looking for Horus’s significance in your Natal Blue Print:
There are many interpretations and symbolisations of the ‘Eye of Horus’ and then Horus himself. Although remember to look for things related to the ‘Eye of Horus’ specifically. Some of the major ones that I came across in this research are: Strength, Prosperity, Royalty, Loyalty, Intuition and all the different types of Clair’s: Clairvoyance, Clairsentience, Clair cognizance etc. It is also linked to Protection from negative energies and entities. It is associated with vision (especially the power of vision between the afterlife and the world of the living), the protection of physical integrity and health. It should be noted that the ‘Eye of Horus’ symbol corresponds to the location of the Third Eye, represented by the sixth chakra. The sixth chakra represents the seat of intuition and clairvoyance (including the ability to “see” things usually hidden). Prominence of one’s lunar energy, more so, this asteroid’s effect over Moon Dominance is something that can be looked at since this eye was also called the ‘Eye of Thoth’, the god of the Moon. Yin/ Feminine energy. How one connects to their emotions, their mother and also their grasp on family traditions because it is all about family dignity. Then one may also look for where the native is very detail oriented and focused, given the factor of ‘clear seeing’ through the ‘Eye of Horus’. Transformation, connections to the afterlife, interests in the occult, law and order are also hinted at.
Over all, this particular asteroid, at least according to me, has Lunarian, Solarian, Saturnian, Plutonian and Mercurian energies. So if this asteroid does make aspects to any of these planets in your natal blue print, think of it as a minor active energy.
Interpretations:
I House:
Horus in the first house will be very prideful. Prideful of their heritage, their name, their talents and over all just who they are. With this, an aggressive force is also gifted. The aggression here will be mostly towards mockery made against the native. One should never let another put them down because they have their own set of insecurities and jealousies. Protection of the ‘self’ is what manifests here. A very prominent presence and indications of being sexually attracted to very intimidating people. Strong and broad shoulders.
II House:
Here, Horus will show you what one is protective over and how do they protect it. Do they have a good sense of control over their personal assets? Or do they spend it all? Is the native mindful with the things they work hard for? Does the native have a very giving mind set when it comes to donating? Horus will ground the native when it comes to abundance of any kind and also gift the native with ‘Clear seeing’ in this house.
III House:
In the house of communication, Horus will be loud and clear. Always speaking the truth and lying when it is necessary, especially when it’s to save someone. Remember, lying for something good, will never get you bad karma. Horus here can truly make a native, a genius. The gift of ‘Clair cognizance’ can also be expected here. Good reading and writing skills. Loves to read news articles and probably is great at those mathematical puzzles/games that come in the newspaper.
IV House:
Here, the relationship with the mother can come to light. Horus did only grow up with his mother, Isis after all, so it is expected that the native has a good relationship with the mother figure. Downpour of emotions is felt at times. Karmic lessons on emotions are learnt here. The gift of ‘Clairsentience’ can be expected. If relationship with the mother is wounded, expect the native to try to fix things later in life.
V House:
Horus here blesses the native with skills in whatever they might want to pursue. Can make the native bask in self-love for once. Horus here can also manifest as being good with kids regardless of the fact that one may or may not like them. The protective energy will always stay. One can be expected to be very creatively intuitive if the third eye is activated. Wild and free spirit. Very regal in their ways and always a big heart. Tough love.
VI House:
Protection from infections, diseases and injuries. Horus can also manifest as literal ‘Miracles’ when it comes to curing something that is incurable here, imagine being so blessed. Detail oriented and Sharp minded, after all, Falcons do see clearer than us humans. Horus here also blesses the native with good self-discipline and routine. Native ages very gracefully. Not a very good relationship with one’s own emotions unless they work on it.
VII House:
Horus often blesses the native with prosperous business partnerships here. Luck with law can be expected since Horus himself was known as the ‘Avenger of Wrongs’. Kind of treatment of the ones closest to the native can also be hinted at. Native can have a few people who are jealous of their success or relationships, but they remain protected. Blessed with a very regal and minimalist aesthetic sense.
VIII House:
Luck with debt. Horus here provides Safety and protection against bankruptcy and illegal doings. Great sacrifices, highly foresighted and blessed with great occult talents. Constant Ego Deaths and Rebirths which further lead to a more solid sense of self/ self-awareness. Sex here could be avoided, not because it is bad or scary, but rather, wanting to stay ‘Pure’ or staying ‘Untouched’ until the right person arrives. Tantric Sex can also be beneficial here. Supressed aggression that comes out when it gets overwhelming.
IX House:
When Horus sits in this house, it dabbles with many philosophical arts. Approach to life can also be made very ‘Stoic’ when necessary. Great achievements in higher studies and spiritual studies. Meditation is key here if one wants to achieve higher understanding of things. Native can also be attracted to the spiritual beliefs and protective symbols of cultures apart from their own. Either very Religious or very Spiritual. Very logical yet intuitive way of handling difficulties in life.
X House:
Relationship with the father can either be very good or bad. As mentioned before, Horus’s father, Osiris, was killed by Seth, due to which Horus was raised by Isis all alone in hiding from the world. He simply grew up to fight for the right to his throne and to avenge his father’s name. So really, just look for the attitude of the native towards the father as either being together ‘for the sake of the family image’ or really wanting to be a ‘shoulder of support’ in hard times. Native can also help others by giving good career advice; this one particularly comes by just “Knowing” what is wrong or right for the person. Use of the native’s intuition through this way is somehow very accurate and flourishing.
XI House:
Blessed with good public image, can work well in groups. Lit up personality. Collaborations can actually prosper here. Horus here can give the native a ‘soldier/protector’ mind-set which can lead to the native wanting to join the army/navy or military force. Horus here somehow enables the native to see beyond caste, creed and class which turns into a positive and giving attitude towards the community, earning them good karma. Might also have admirers in the society for their kind and charitable attitude.
XII House:
Over here, Horus is very grounded. Here he will be very active in all senses. The native can have quite a wide range of intuitive abilities. Multiple ‘Hermit’ stages throughout the spiritual journey. Once spiritually awakened, there’s no going back. The occult will definitely have some significance in the native’s life. Protective amulets and talismans, exclusive to the family heritage can be passed down to the native. Funny enough, in the house of limitations, Horus sees none. He instead blesses the native with this curiosity that lets them turn the impossible into possible.
