Does anyone here have experience with Egyptian deities through ritual books? I’m looking for a way to call upon Isis but there is an abundance of random books out there that I don’t really trust. So I’m wondering if anyone has used any particular books or grimoires to evoke her to your presence.
Her prominence is unmistakable in the Western Hermetic Tradition. But there seems to be no direct info on ritually summoning her in the ritual evocation context.
I don’t know why people think that spirits appear like a flower at some point in history and then disappear.If you are looking for a strong and kind goddess who plays a big role in the development of humanity, then talk to Astarte.She is also known as Inanna,Ishtar,Anahita, isis and many more names. She personally confirmed this information for me.
It’s not that they disappear. They have their own unique vibes/energies as individual entities, despite whatever people’s views are about their connection. I don’t care enough to mix alternative names, aspects, faces, currents, whatever. I want the energy and presence of Isis in ritual.
@Acuna before anything else, what is it you are seeking or hoping to accomplish? I ask because Isis is a rather vague and all encompassing goddess, there may be important nuances to dive into.
@King1911 despite common belief Isis and Astarte are actually very different beings. Astarte comes from the line of Inanna - Ishtar - Astarte/Anat/Asherah - Lilith - etc. whereas Isis more comes from the same line as Mary or Eve. Egypt illustrates this well because Astarte is the consort of Setesh rather than Asar, and in some cases is used symbolically in anti-Asar works where that god is replaced with Yam, and Setesh with Baal.
