[edit]

Spell 115 from the Ancient Egyptian Book of the Dead is written here, to provide evidence of a rather interesting quirk here. The "High Priests" of Heliopolis seemed to be transgender women or something like that - Denial is a river in Egypt, but that's not the topic here, so let's do some research and figure this out.

Here is the spell:

Spell 115

 SPELL FOR ASCENDING TO THE SKY, OPENING UP THE TOMB, AND KNOWING THE SOULS OF HELIOPOLIS.

I have spent yesterday among the great ones, I have become Khepri, I have cleared the vision of the Sole Eye, I have opened up the circle of darkness. I am one of them, I know the Souls of Heliopolis, into which the high-priest of Heliopolis was not initiated through revelation; (I know) the hostile acts by Him who would destroy the heirs of Heliopolis; I know why a braided lock is made for a man.

Re disputed with the serpent " Him who is in his burning,' and his mouth was injured, and that is how the reduction in the month came about. He said to the serpent: "I will take my harpoon, which men will inherit,' and that is how the harpoon came into being. The serpent said : "The Two Sisters will come into being,' and that is how Re's passing by came into being.

It so happened that He of the red cloth heard, and his arm was not stopped. He transformed himself into a woman with braided hair, and that is how the priest of Heliopolis with braided hair came into being. It so happened that the mighty one was stripped in the temple, and that is how the stripped one of Heliopolis came into being.

It so happened that the heritage of the heir came into being, and great will be he who shall see it; he will become high-priest of Heliopolis.

I know the Souls of Heliopolis; they are Re, Shu and Tefnut.

Whatever sort of result this data produces, I'd be happy to see it - I don't know how to use this data to write a Wikipedia article, but I think it's important - The knowledge is here. It's here. Let's use it. Let's figure it out. 2001:558:6017:53:2045:1D3C:8700:EC83 (talk) 02:13, 7 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
