Book Reviews of Bast and Sekhmet: Eyes of Ra
Book Review: Excellent research, great rituals.
Summary: 5 Stars
I have come across many books that deal with ancient Egyptian myths and religion, but this is the only one that discusses the Feline Deities, focusing on Bast and Shekmet. The part of the book that deals with the myths and origins of the feline Deities is excellent and the product of detailed research. It sheds light to some myths that have been around on the web for sometime concerning the Feline Goddesses. The ritual part is also very good. It starts with the basics for beginners and advances to more extended visualisations. A novice may find it hard to follow, but with study and persistence these rituals really pay off. There are also included several oil and incense recipes, but, in my opinion, one of the book's highlights is an ancient prayer to Osiris to heal a cat bitten by a scorpion. Although scorpion bites are rare these days, this actual ancient Egyptian prayer can be adapted to help a sick cat. I believe that this is an essential book for every pagan, especially the cat lover, and everyone who wishes to follow the "Pawprints of the Gods".
