Kemeticism - The reverence of Ancient Egyptian culture, philosophy and deities as determined by study of Egyptian texts, manuscripts, tombs and other archeological sources.

It depends on the temples - like any religion Kemeticism has several different sects that claim theirs is The Way. The priests and the priestesses daily take care of the deities in the temples. One sect has named a living pharoah to lead. Personally, I have my own naos housing my matron to which I give daily reverence and sacrifices.

For festivals I can usually tell by odd weather phenomena, ectoplasmic presences, shapes in the candles/shadows. In my daily devotions, this is irrelevant.

Occult practises and science did not provide enough raison d'être, so i started to look into different paths. Being scientifically minded, I wrote out a list of compatible deities and started doing minor evocations. As soon as I completed my matron's invocation, an earthquake happened. It scared the shit out of me, but eventually I started looking into kemeticism.

see above.

A symbiotic relationship. My matron protects me and offers guidance while I perform the sacrifices and rituals that gives her sustenance.

I follow a dietary regime that agrees with my path, and I incorporate elements of both modern Canadian culture with that reconstructed from Ancient Egyptian records. Being unallied with any kemetic temple, I am not able to participate in the group gatherings that uphold a majority Egyptian culture.

Two sides of the same coin.

There was/is the First Time of the gods which was/is linear, followed by this time which is cyclic.

There is no good and evil. There is Maat and isfet. Maat has no direct english translation, though falls somewhere along the lines of tha balance of the world, though some see it as order and right. Isfet is often described as chaos, however personally i see it more as disruption.

They aren't for me.

It is a wonderful tool for understanding reality.

Like reflections in a fun house mirror. Some are slightly recognisable, others are twisted beyond recognition.
