THE 36 DECANS, WITH THEIR RICH HISTORY AND SIGNIFICANCE, PLAY A PIVOTAL ROLE IN ANCIENT EGYPTIAN COSMOLOGY, CALENDRICS, MAGIC, AND FUNERARY PRACTICES. FOR GENERATIONS, THESE DECANS HELD IMMENSE IMPORTANCE, AS THEY SERVED AS GUIDES FOR SOULS TO NAVIGATE THE COSMOS IN THE AFTERLIFE, AS WELL AS TOOLS FOR THE PRIESTS IN COUNTING THE PASSING HOURS IN THE SKY AT NIGHT.
IN THIS INSIGHTFUL PRESENTATION, I INVITE YOU TO JOIN ME AS WE EMBARK ON A JOURNEY THROUGH THE DIVERSE USES, CONCEPTUALIZATIONS, AND APPLICATIONS OF THE DECANS IN ANCIENT EGYPT. WE DISCUSS HOW THEY WERE FIRST FORMULATED AROUND 2000 BC, AND HOW THEY DEVELOPED FURTHER REFINEMENTS IN TRACKING THE HELIACAL PHASES OF THE DECANS AROUND 1300 BC, WHICH LED TO MONUMENTAL INSCRIPTIONS OF THE DECANS, THEIR PHASES AND POWERS INTO TEMPLES DURING THE LATEST DYNASTIES AND PTOLEMAIC ERA. AFTER TRACING THEIR DEVELOPMENT AND NAMES THROUGH TIME, WE GO INTO EACH OF THE 36 DECANS, EXPLORING AN INTRICATE TAPESTRY OF GODS, MYTHS, SPELLS, RITUALS, ARCHETYPES, AND CONSTELLATIONS WOVEN INTO THEIR EXISTENCE.
IF YOU WERE ABLE TO ATTEND MY PREVIOUS FREE LECTURE ON ANCIENT EGYPTIAN ASTROLOGY, YOU'LL UNDOUBTEDLY FIND THIS PRESENTATION A VITAL PIECE OF THE PUZZLE IN DEEPENING YOUR UNDERSTANDING OF THE INTRICATE EGYPTIAN COSMOS.
