Rackador Records A Born Classic Rackador RecordsStory Behind the DodeNeters.
The neters are the gods and goddesses of the Egyptian pantheon, divine personalities familiar to us as Thoth, Ra, Osiris, Isis, Horus, Set, Maat, Nut, Geb, Hathor, Sekhmet, Anubis, and so on. There are 22 primary neters, each representing an aspect of divine wholeness.One of the primary myths of ancient Egypt has to do with the story of Osiris and Isis, and their betrayal by Set, who kills and dismembers Osiris, casting his body to the four winds. Isis, using her magical arts, goes on a quest for the missing pieces, finally putting most of him back together and breathing life into him for a brief moment. There is a divine conception and Horus is born, who avenges the death of his father by killing Set.Translations of the Egptian Book of the Dead, inscribed hieroglyphically along some of the tombs in the Valley of the Kings, indicate that this could have been a real life drama that took place during the last days of Atlantis. It is even possible that all the neters had their origins in actual living beings during the early migrations from Atlantis, and later became deified. Like the Greek and Hindu gods, the 22 neters of ancient Egypt embody a vast archetypal terrain.As we connected with the energies of these neters by journeying through the sacred temples dedicated to them, we soon began to realize that these powers were not good or bad in themselves. Each of these neters exist within each one of us, and each of them could have both a dark face and a light face. They are simply reflections of archetypal qualities within our own psyches, and our human task is to grow in love, wisdom, and power as we integrate these qualities within our own psyches.
