Which Egyptian Goddess or God Are You, Based on Zodiac Sign

Which Egyptian Goddess or God Are You, Based on Zodiac Sign originally appeared on Parade .

The concept of "god" and " goddess " is one of the most ancient, predating recorded history itself. While this concept means different things for different people, its etymological root is connected to the verb "to invoke." This is especially true for the deities of ancient Egypt, with whom many of us are beginning to rekindle a connection in modern times. While all ancient cultures have invoked different deities, those of ancient Egypt seem to have a special place in the human psyche. This is mostly due to their archetypes being absorbed by the Greek and Roman gods that are remembered today in practices like astrology , cosmology, and ritualistic culture.

Aries: Seth

Being the sacred warrior in Egyptian mythology, Seth is the most primal representation of the fire element. Like the archetype of Aries, Seth's is often misunderstood, as its role of initiator can be taken as "too quick or too intense." Both Set and Aries make way for us to explore feelings of anger, frustration, and creative action, which are necessary for setting boundaries and protecting what's ours. If you are an Aries, call on Seth's blessing every time you need to attune yourself to divine masculine energy. 

Taurus: Hathor

Along with Isis, Hathor is one of the most venerated archetypes of the ancient world. Depicted as a woman with the head of a cow and a sun disk crown, she is the goddess of love, joy, music, and sex magic! Like Taurus, Hathor is passionate and sensual, reminding us of the simple and earthly pleasures of life. Whenever you're trying to connect with your body, call on Hathor's blessing by wearing a flower crown.

Gemini: Thoth

The ibis-headed god, Thoth, was a sacred bird being often portrayed with his tools, a scribe's palette, stylus, and papyrus scrolls. As the god of knowledge, writing, and wisdom, he was believed to have invented the hieroglyphs. Like the Gemini zodiac sign, Thoth was also considered to be a great magician, speaking his ideas and desires into form. Call on the sacred presence of this god whenever you're trying to bring an idea into manifestation.

Cancer: Isis

The primordial, legendary goddess Isis is timeless in her role of divine mother, nurturer, and magical healer. Along with her sister, Nephthys, she was the epitome of divine feminine energy. Both Cancer and Isis have a strong connection with Sirius, the brightest star in the entire sky, which for millennia has been venerated by all ancient civilizations and cultures around the world. If you're a Cancer, invoke Isis' blessing by performing magic under the moonlight. 

Leo: Ra

Leo, the only zodiac sign ruled by the Sun, perfectly aligns with the preeminent Egyptian solar deity, Ra. Depicted all over the epic, ancient temples with a falcon's head and a sun disk, Ra holds a special place in the kingdom as a symbol of divine pharaonic power. On his boat, he traveled from east to west, bringing light and heat to the world. Wearing an amulet with the "eye of Ra" can boost your confidence, leadership skills, and creativity. 

Virgo: Geb

If you are a Virgo, you have a strong connection with one of the first nine gods of Egypt. Geb, the god of farming, gave birth to the Earth along with his lover Nut, the goddess of the sky. The ancients believed that Geb helped bring about a good harvest, which strongly resembles Virgo's connection to food, groundedness, and the natural world. Call on Geb's blessing every time you're preparing for harvest, to reap the rewards of your long-held efforts.

Libra: Ma'at

The Egyptian personification of truth, justice, and balance, Ma'at, is aligned with Libra, the sign of the scales. Just like Libras are often called to reconcile opposite energies, Ma'at was the universal force that maintained balance, order, and harmony in the universe. Visualize yourself holding a feather any time you need to be reminded that your ability to see both sides is not a weakness, but a unique gift and talent.

Scorpio: Osiris

The legendary god of the afterlife, Osiris, perfectly aligns with the zodiac sign of death and rebirth, Scorpio. As a central figure in Egyptian mythology, Osiris is a powerful symbol of rebirth after being murdered by his brother, Set, and brought back to life by Isis. If you're a Scorpio that is constantly transforming, visualize yourself surrounded by the color green, which is the color of the skin of Osiris, representing the life that can only be born after a significant ending.

Sagittarius: Bes

If you are a Sagittarius, your endless optimistic spirit aligns with Bes, the Egyptian god of fun, pleasure, merriment, and humor. Often depicted with a lion-like face and large ears, Bes embodies fierce but also gentle qualities, as he's also a protective deity, particularly of women and children. Whenever you're feeling blue or uninspired, channel your inner Bes by dancing, playing music, or protecting someone who cannot protect themselves.

Capricorn: Sobek

One of the earliest archetypes worshiped, Sobek, the crocodile-headed god and a force not to be ignored, aligns with Capricorn's stern nature. As the god of the Nile, he's connected to fertility, while also embodying military strength and power by being one of the protectors of the pharaoh. Call on Sobek's guidance and strength anytime you're about to do something difficult, especially if it requires action and leadership, but also nurturance. 

Aquarius: Ptah

Ptah is one of the most ancient Egyptian gods, conceiving the entire universe through the power of his speech. As one of the master architects of the world, Ptah, like Aquarius, is concerned with laying a strong foundation while crafting a fruitful future for all his people. Often adorned with feathers, Ptah holds a close connection with the air element and can serve as your guide when your focus is on either building something meaningful or learning something new.

Pisces: Nephthys 

Known as the "veiled Isis," Nephthys is the Egyptian goddess of intuition, dreams, and the mysteries of the night. Often misunderstood, her chameleon-like nature resembles the Piscean versatility and adaptability, as she was able to change forms as she traveled from the world of the seen to the "unseen." Connecting with Nephthys by visualizing the image of a Hawk can help you develop your psychic abilities and learn to decode your dreams.
