RUFFIAN ===> BAST ~ THE EGYPTIAN CAT GODDESS
(https://journeyingtothegoddess.files.wordpress.com/2012/05/bast_by_badhead_gadroon.jpg?w=346&h=476)
BAST = The Egyptian Cat Goddess
Areas of Influence:
The Egyptian cat goddess, Bast, had numerous areas of influence that developed over time.
In the early days she was the fierce lion headed Goddess of the lower Nile
who protected the Pharaoh and the sun God Ra.
(===> WILL SHE PROTECT AMERICAN PHAROAH ALSO? <=== )
This is why she has the title of "Goddess of protection."
In this role she became Goddess of the rising sun
and holder of the Utchat, the all seeing eye of Horus.
Statues of this Egyptian Goddess would be placed in households to protect them from thieves.
Later she was depicted with the head of a domestic cat, representing her more nurturing aspects.
They likened this Goddess to Artemis and she also became associated with the moon
* (INTERESTINGLY -- I AM AN ARCHER + HAVE USED THE NAME ARTEMIS)
The Goddess was linked to the music and dance
due to the special rattle that she carried known as the Sistrum.
* (INTERESTINGLY -- I AM A SONGWRITER + FORMER PROF DANCER)
A Patron Goddess of fire fighters due to the unusual Egyptian belief that if a CAT
ran through a burning household she would draw the flames out behind her
* (NO WONDER I HAVE NIGHTMARES OF A HOME FIRE!)
:flaming: :OMG: :flaming:
Although her cult was centered in Bubastis ---
She was worshipped throughout the whole of the lower Nile region.
* (SO MAYBE A "PIONEER OF THE NILE?")
Strengths: Protector, sensual and CARING figure
* (AS SEEN IN FLEXIBILITY OF LATE TO GATE!) :hug:
Weaknesses: Chameleon like (*GEMINI)
Fierce when Threatened <======== :evil:
* (WEAKNESS? I CONSIDER IT A STRENGTH!)
Symbolism
Presented as a Lion headed or CAT headed woman often carrying an ankh or papyrus wand.
She is associated with the all seeing eye (the utchat)
* (SO BE SURE U FOLLOW CONTEST RULES!)
Sacred Animals: Lions and Domestic CATS
* (HAD A PERSIAN CATTERY + ALWAYS HAVE CATS IN HOME)
Sacred Plants: CATNIP <=== :thumbsup: GEE == BIG SURPRISE EH!
:happy:
